An American Mantra
Love is for Doves.
Look.
Power makes others cower.
Greed is what you need.
More Money for your Honey,
more toys for your boyz,
a big dinner for the winner,
shota rummy for your tummy,
line up [...]

Not Love
It’s not love when I’m afraid, when
I know from many times that
you’ll say
those things with
that expression.
I want you and
already my gut knots, knowing
whatever happens will
hurt.
You don’t do tenderness, not in sex.
Understanding’s not where you
come from.
You wear black robes even when
you’re naked.
I have trouble keeping it up in enemy
territory, waiting for your knives to
cut [...]

Ok, folks, this is God at the keyboard, and I have a few things to tell you.
More and more religions and ignorant people continue to make outrageous statements about me and what I want, so it is again time for me to set the record straight. I am using a set of hands happily [...]

My standard disclaimer applies.
“I envied … the thought of growing up in a world where someone cared so much about your happiness and so little about what you accomplished in life.”
~ Kelley Armstrong, in “Bitten“
Sometimes I’ll be reading a book and something will just jump out at me, like it’s written in glowing text. [...]

Ask Uncle Seeker
Uncle Seeker, could you help me understand something?
Maybe, Little One. What is it you don’t understand?
Well, it’s about religion and God and stuff.
Wow, that’s a pretty big subject. Is there something special that’s bothering you?
Yeah. Sometimes it doesn’t make any sense. The pastor at the church we go to says the one true [...]

Mark Twain is one of the greatest authors America has ever produced. I still read and enjoy his stories, and he is still one of America’s all-time best-loved storytellers.
I first read his book “Letters from the Earth” sometime in the Sixties, and I loved it. I was just getting started in my process of recovering [...]

“If it screams, it’s not food… yet.”
Bacon and eggs: a day’s work for the chicken… a lifetime investment for the pig.”
“I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down to us. Pigs treat us as equals.”
~Winston Churchill
Meditation on the Damned
To whom do pigs pray,
stacked in their crowded lonely cages,
eating, defecating, waiting
for the [...]
