| In the works…a preview without ML. Got enough headaches… Offering No Excuses: My Mind And I My mind wanted to make itself up today but then saw reality lurking before deciding it wasn’t sure and went back it to hiding despite encouragement, always the positive one trying to point out this and that to everyone, offering a podium and mic without consult as I checked the math again with my mind and found a lack of confidence had wiped off half the chalkboard equation. that saboteur now asks for a snack, some booze and pop a squat on the fence — with life binoculars, we observe what looks like ever-changing slides under a hazy, monocle-microscope before dizzy and falling again, but my mind is happy to have an excuse to run off with distraction. I really do need an edit there… 2.11.26 |

| How to know if I’m a true character in the story depends on how many lines dispensed for purpose of plot, to explain this thing right now, what happened back there, or say, “look, it’s starting to snow.” If moving the story along or acting the weatherman, or giving a summarized perspective, you just might be a narrator. And so on and so forth. There’s trope for that. Uh-huh In the future, everything we say or do will be pre-scripted by narrative-driven dominators who can’t see the end of humanity they contribute to. Polled: 83% of Americans deem our inflation driven economy is “critical.” I para-phra-embellished. It’s much worse. I’ve been reporting for about a year, people will be forced to live within means. Bye-bye subscription services. Hello oatmeal. Adios Starbucks. Where’d I store that coffee maker. *reads manual* (plug, fill, push and wait for Heaven rearriving.) 80k for the SUV hatchback? Bus, ride share, or quit and stay home, save 10-15k depreciation for year. Not buying a car to quit a job pays for itself. Imagine if a million people default tomorrow. I advocate this type of organized mayhem to get away from this dependency to have status with 12-year loans on family SUVs, cheapest you’ll find, because they dumped all car manufacturing. Wall Street will piss itself. When do the rich fight with the rich to the death? I’d get the popcorn ready. Any islands left that Epstein didn’t buy? Or, in foreclosure? 8 million for an island by Barbados? Late 90s? I missed out. I always wanted to…fish? Maybe…putting it out there…customer can be king again. Wear heavy boots when kicking tires and shiftless salesmen. Pay the no-haggle price? Laugh and walk away. I’d stick a tongue on the glass wall showroom and make a face. May I suggest, blowfish? Bigger the puff the better. I’m half asleep. Okay. Done. Carry me to bed? |

If I Had A Title… If I had eyes I’d look around this shared space, see your easy smiles. If I had ears I’d tune into melodious notes of laughter. Fit me for a nose it would ascend nostrils, drink in waves of crush-bean coffee-splendor — baking bread expectant, in expansion. All intoxicates a heart yearning existence, when… a drunk fly haphazardly buzzes through our room, braced by the 100-year, two by four walls, floor by floor intersected — material-dependent pipes weaving, unseen through vacuums, void of memory, divining sharp-turn-passages in perforate. From fittings to furnace, of life water chill to steaming, haunched metal creatures prison-bolt to the drained concrete foundation — delivering in dank, in dark, making all more temperate. Careful to fine tune the soulless implements and pay mind to a Goliath construct with black-layered pate as canopy, dispelling spillage from miles above — dispensed cloud offerings unfurl finger-tip nails of chlorophyll-filling, coif-photosynthesized hair returning, as does a greening yard rug. Specked eggs warm in nests, lend to verdant arrival in variant of octaves chirping, in and out of the perpetual — perceptible, given a brain encouraged. Divinity is nature, is a good gas burner, is a family spending time together in any weather where I consume all with nary a whisper. 2.7.25 40 lines Just ‘cause I enjoy everything about us, but would rather watch the gathering with appreciation of all that contributes.

I’m reminded of shows with minds that detect something, using senses like smell that others don’t pick up on. I’m not clever. Yet, In my chair lately, I’ve smelled eminences that aren’t apparent: weed, beer stench, sulfur. I’m still trying to remember others; but, it might be about my location in the corner of the living room, facing the window, next to the china cabinet. The cat poo detector is always on by default. What’s surprising is I will pick up on a smell my wife doesn’t detect. Her very sensitive ears and nose can work her OCD button to eliminate. Is it my location, cabinet, new home heating (I smelled boiled water more with the old), or something else? Further, am I unwittingly puzzling a mystery? I’m certain the weed smell is below. My wife properly would not want to admit knowing our youngest is culprit. But, investigation says otherwise. This is a process that reminds how you can build these moments into a mystery story with other elements to entertain. I’ve quashed the notion. Nothing currently encourages but the same insane belief: they will come, they will read. Not: you’re bored, you’re entertaining yourself. I figured a blog post appropriate, filling obligation foremost. I don’t like shortcutting or mailing things in over thinking myself a bit clever. Then, it’s cut bait and go after the next thing. It’s an ongoing story. I can resume wonderment any time I care. So, is it tied to ADHD? I can have an overactive imagination. Yeah…no. Can’t say but wait for the next olfactory impulse. So, when the end comes, and I wash up on the other shore, I’ll see ya. |
| The following proceeded a string of poems, as perspective gained but lost as ADHD/OCD ramble on… The Poetry Way I’ll always write poetry. I’ll always be alone. And I’ll be a bit Emily, no reason for a phone. Undisturbed, life hums with nothing but me, momentary photo albums, of potential places I might see. If life is non-linear it’s not up to me to say. What goes in one ear goes out the other, next day. I write because I’m a fool — but really just a big kid, discovering secrets yet cool, revisit haunts where I’ve hid. I have anecdotes in rhyme. I really must have bumped my head — repetition time after time all the stories already said. But a puzzle, life like this enters the parental perspective, understanding their ignorant bliss. Mystery is life, how best to live. Discouragement given unto me — no passion or dream allow — but be safe, live practically, stand behind an implement plow. So, ignorant, like vowed poverty, I’ve lived dreams in words no other visionary will see. So, to cages my words for your birds. The prettiest things I’ll hear utter in streams from my mouth. Odes here will only cull my ear. Seasonable words go places south. 1.29.26 36 words, traditional rhyming I lied above, consequentially, because during retrieval for the above space placeholder, this poem was born.

IN THIS EPISODE of Ask The Right Questions? Michael Gorbachev - “…I have often told listeners that I feel Americans need their own change — a perestroika, not like the one in my country, but an American perestroika — and the reaction has been markedly different.” So, is America going through some kind of Perestroika? Google-AI While a direct replication of Soviet perestroika (restructuring) is unlikely due to differing political systems, some analysts argue the U.S. is experiencing a similar moment of necessary, painful, and urgent systemic reform. Parallels are drawn regarding potential systemic decline, shifts in economic thinking, and efforts to overhaul bureaucratic structures. Arguments for a "U.S. Perestroika" Moment: * Economic Strategy Shift: A profound shift in U.S. strategic and economic thinking, recognized in 2023 as needing to fix a flawed, long-standing approach, is seen as a potential "perestroika" moment. * Systemic Overhaul: Current efforts to reduce government entanglement, challenge established institutions, and reorder political priorities are compared to restructuring attempts. * Information Control: Similar to the late Soviet period, current American politics features intense debates over language, such as redefining diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and using executive orders to alter official narratives. * Global Retreat: Some suggest the U.S. is undergoing a "surrender of power" comparable to voluntary Soviet withdrawals, marking a drastic change in global posture. Key Differences and Challenges: * Systemic Structure: The U.S. is a democracy with a Constitution and different economic foundations, unlike the centrally planned Soviet model. * Outcome Uncertainty: While perestroika aimed for reform, it ultimately led to the collapse of the Soviet Union. * Lack of Consensus: Unlike the top-down nature of Soviet reforms, similar changes in the U.S. face intense political, social, and legal resistance. Analysts like Harold James have noted that while comparisons are made, the U.S. system's unique, long-term fundamentals make a total replication of the Soviet collapse unlikely, though systemic, painful restructuring is ongoing. SUGGESTED Articles: 2023-American About To Have It’s Perestroika Moment https://nationalinterest.org/feature/america-about-have-its-perestroika-moment-2... 3/2025 - Trump Brings Perestroika To America https://asiatimes.com/2025/03/trump-brings-perestroika-to-america/ 2012-M.Gorbachev-Perestroika Will Renew The West (me: change coming?) https://www.ajc.com/news/opinion/global-perestroika-will-renew-and-the-west/CxT8... Google AI- Mikhail Gorbachev proposed a "global perestroika" in his later years, arguing that the need for "new thinking" to solve global challenges—such as environmental issues, poverty, and nuclear proliferation—could renew the U.S. and the West, just as his reforms aimed to restructure the Soviet Union. This concept emphasized universal cooperation, interdependence, and a moral foundation for international politics rather than zero-sum, conflict-driven approaches. Key aspects of Gorbachev's "global perestroika" vision included: * A Call for New Thinking: Similar to how perestroika (restructuring) and glasnost(openness) were needed to break the totalitarian system in the Soviet Union, Gorbachev argued the West needed a similar, profound change in its approach to international relations. * Solving Global Challenges: The goal was to move beyond the Cold War mentality to address modern challenges like inequality and climate change, which he believed required collective, cooperative, and non-violent action. * Overcoming Structural Issues: Gorbachev argued that the West, particularly the US, needed its own "perestroika" to move beyond economic and political systems that were failing to meet the needs of humanity. * Moral Foundation: Politics should not be a "dirty business" but must be anchored in a moral core that focuses on the common good, overcoming the cynicism of pure power politics. Gorbachev believed that this, the "new thinking," would renew the West by forcing it to confront its own limitations and adapt to a more interconnected, interdependent world, ultimately creating a more stable and prosperous global order. —————————- More, and my biggest concern with rampant inflation, economic colllapse…there seems among us those who are aware of something and grabbing up cash like it’s on fire… Rumors of conglomerations buying out little guy/mom and pop may mean poorer service, fixed rates, less guarantees…just think…Yeltsin’s Russia… https://theconversation.com/will-the-u-s-collapse-like-the-soviet-union-did-2502... Man in blue Mystery prediction of Nostradamus (play that “card” in response to pondering how close are we to Nostradamus’ 27-year World War? Nukes? Assured mutual destruction?? Kåre เลียม Enga  Google AI- Yes, interpretations of Nostradamus's 16th-century quatrains have long featured a prediction regarding a "leader in blue" or a "blue turban" who is deemed a significant threat to world peace. This figure is often linked to interpretations of a third "Antichrist" or "King of Terror". Key Aspects of the "Leader in Blue" Prophecy: * The Blue Turban/Leader: Nostradamus enthusiasts frequently cite a prophecy describing a "strong master" from "Greater Arabia" who wears a blue turban and enters Europe. This figure is portrayed as a source of terror and war, leading to a long-lasting conflict. * The "King of Terror" (Mabus): Many interpretations of the "leader in blue" are intertwined with the prediction of "Mabus" or a "King of Terror" who emerges to disrupt the global order. * World War III/Conflict: Predictions often suggest this leader will spark a conflict (sometimes described as World War III) that lasts for 27 years, often involving alliances against the West. * Interpretation and Misinterpretation: These predictions are highly interpretive and often adjusted to fit modern events. Some interpretations from the 1980s linked this to a 1988 Middle Eastern leader, while more recent interpretations have sometimes tried to adapt the "blue" theme to other political figures. Important Context: * Vague Nature: Nostradamus’s Les Propheties are written in vague, poetic, and often symbolic quatrains, making them subject to constant re-interpretation. * Unfulfilled Dates: Previous interpretations of this specific "King of Terror" or "blue" figure often pointed to 1999 or 1988, neither of which resulted in the predicted apocalypse. * Modern Reinterpretation: The "leader in blue" theme is frequently updated, with some recent internet speculation attempting to connect these old predictions to modern political leaders. Disclaimer: Interpretations of Nostradamus are subjective, and many predictions attributed to him have not come to pass as interpreted. https://www.tyla.com/news/politics/living-nostradamus-donald-trump-nicolas-madur...

| Hammerhead and Others As a tool I’m not the instrument in any other hand yet operate somehow, being used and confused… at first there is a marble sculpture in a garage I’m lent the noise and clatter cast off in a heated deteriorating process that I am to pay for damages for something I produce that’s not my own compelled to share as an instrument hammering rock with a head harder than stone and alone I wonder what’s more ignorant — that which behaves burdened having incentivized my ability to be so naive that which chooses to live how it dreams crush rock seeking inner beauty when purpose as tool reveals I have the diamond core that you would implore until you didn’t get what you want a tool, an instrument of self-abuse, I will not be until I’m told just what you intend since I plugged in sawing and chipping away to recall the hidden core of my youth with vigor you would deny me — because blinded by my own dust something I didn’t perceive was ill-conceived and made by me 1.19.26 Made public without edits, 1.8.26 I can follow it now and like the muddled mess of thoughts because it’s the process to get here, and learn regret is better than shame, but neither serve if I am to continue producing my art with what remaining naïveté. I cherish a childlike knowledge with thirst to evolve…hopefully preserving what can’t be eroded by its ward — nostalgic sentiment. |
