What If… (Points of Poison)
What if “The Plague” was always bullshit, just like we’ve now proven the “COVID” narrative to be? What if it was a poisoning of wells, amongst other terrorist acts, as many at that time believed (and unfortunately retaliated against too blindly, killing innocent people), for what must have been at least partially compelling reasons? What…

To Friends and Family: An Apology and an Explanation
Beneath almost all anger there is sadness. It’s been no different in my case. In the past 3 months or so, three separate people — friends and family — have told me I am “bitter,” “negative,” and that my words are “vile.” While I disagree with a lot of these generalizations, I also understand that…

‘Get the Memo’ – New, original song co-written with a friend, about not mindlessly following the herd.
What a treat it’s been to work on this song over the past month or so. Recorded at a top-secret location in Voluntary Japan, the concept is the brainchild of my good friend V from the Tokyo Bitcoin Cash Meetup, and the songwriting and music/production was done by myself and the Nite Owl Works crew.…

Note (76) Ryōkan’s Hangover
Half-cocked running down the road in “crocs” — unplanned Once a Wheatfield boy, always *** When you’re drunk each little moment becomes enough Like being a child again But not quite. *** I like to think of Ryōkan hungover the poems people never talk about those that were never published Cherry blossoms falling on a…

Cheers from Voluntary Japan
To the voluntaryists out there insistent on actually applying the golden rule to everything in life, and not making convenient exceptions in the name of politics or religion: Thank you. Cheers to you. There is no pawning off of responsibility, ultimately. If we want the world to become better, we cannot wait for a president,…

Watching your family support genocide sucks
I have watched members of my family sink into supporting genocide. There is no way to talk about it. They ask for proof. I send loads of proof. “But Hamas!” …. I send proof and open admissions from Israeli officials that “Hamas” is a creation of the Israeli state. That the state their knew about…

Sakuragi
When I’m feeling really busted, this tree, nature, still makes sense. Makes me feel less alone and heals me a bit when I really just wanna fucking give up. This tree doesn’t watch FOX or CNN, it doesn’t worry about 6-year-old fake disease scares, or support ongoing genocides. It doesn’t care about Jeff Bezos or…

Spirit
My spirit’s kinda broken No one’s gonna care when you tell ’em why Keep it all unspoken Acceptance has more value than what’s right *** Raised on “bull and bread” Turns out it was just lead Poison for the mind Give me beef and brine *** I’ll take a distilled hate Over your evil days…
