Apology to MW #142 (For June 5 1997)

A little too real to stay real cordial,
I=92ll wheel, and turn down a course I see medial.
This game that we play is mostly primordial.
You think in a dissonance, cognitive =96 custodial.

There is drama played out on the fringe of our lives!=20
It freshens your lifestyle, depletes other=92s archives.
They cook it with dung, you eat it with chives.
For them life=92s a curse, but for you it=92s contrived.

They keep you insulated from the price you really pay.
They keep away the bad news of the struggle, or the fray.
They keep you in cocoons of gauze, your fear they will allay;
They can lull you into stupor with their media array.=20

You don=92t think you get the news from monolithic letters!
CBS, or NBC are news hounds, and go-getters?
They don=92t keep the real news buried way down in their blotters?
Like say, the death and degradation of a host of critter daughters?

We make the earth all angry when we treat her like mere paper
We=92ve learned to scrape our pores with =96 that raw hemroidal gaper.
The truth has cant beyond belief =96 your local rag newspaper!
The stories you might like to _know_ are shredded to waste paper!

Like, how about free energy that would make all homes like castles?
Obliterate your anxiousness with much of life=92s cruel hassles?
Increase your worth, and independence, in leaps, or bounds and passels?
But that=92s the news that=92s hidden, see? You and me, we=92re vassals!=20

And it chaps my ass this =96 disregard, for educated sensibility.
To invent (again!) cop/doc/law shows, to remind us their divinity.
They report the real news with their sneers of incredulity;
They fill chick ads with UFO=92s to extend our gullibility.

I=92m shouting to an empty house, I=92ve idly been thinking.
Ignored, perhaps reviled -- in a morass quickly sinking.
It matters not indifference that can make my tears unblinking.
It=92s the lavish praise you=92d heap on me that would surely get me
stinking <g>!

And you scream I have no answer, just a hypnotizing rhyme!
I throw down all my *bullshit* cards, and I throw them just in time.
The answer is too easy =96 and it=92s plain as truth sublime.
Just *Cop* is all I=92m saying, and the rest falls into line.

The Alien View =96 It=92ll put a spell on you! Compared to the rest of the
world the US sucks up a *share* of world resources that, by far and
away, exceeds what it gives back to . . . well, anything, or anybody! We
Americans could incur _more_ ranker if that goes on.

If you lived over a guy with a headache, would you practice your tap
dancing? The alien view observes that many of you will. I would just as
soon not. Is _that_ the reason for this thundering silence. . .

afar, I leave far behind me." - Giordano Bruno, while burning at the
fundamentalist's stake in his own deafening silence.
