Shelf Life.

Shelf  life
Where  is your shelf life
In the city block ,obsolete
Or Townhouse, rejected.
Where are you shelved
From the elements?
In the city of tight schedules
Many bills, stress
And the good life.
Where is your apartment
Among the compartments
Of plywood and make believe?
“The neighbor can hear, don’t shout”
The next room neighbor
“I am not shouting give me the earphones.”

Psychological Analysis of the 911 Recordings of the Trayvon Martins Shooting.


These deductions can be made from the psychological and physical quality of the screams recorded in one tape. And the temporal relationship of the gunshot to the last recorded scream.
  1. The non-screaming party fully overcame the screamer for multiple, possibly several seconds.

  1. The screamer was not a surrendered accepting victim.
  2. The screamer was in considerable physical distress and may have had his physiology such as breathing impaired and/or may have been in a painful awkward posture.
  3. The screamer probably did not have an alternative recourse than to scream very loud to get attention in the dark nighttime. He probably was not in possession of a gun to use at least to deter, ward off, the opponent
  4. The screamer’s airway was not clear. There was probable distortion or compression or external obstruction by clothing on the face.
  5.  The screamer was probably not the shooter as the last recorded scream was very unnaturally close to the gunshot. The screamer would be expected to pause and hold his breath to exert on the trigger if this requires significant effort. Also to concentrate on the major action of shooting another person and to observe the effects, for example relief from duress on his part. He would pause from screaming now he had advantage, nor would he continue to give alarm. Unless this effort failed or he was so distressed as to be hysterical or almost hysterical.
  6. If the screamer is not the shooter made a deliberate choice to shoot an over-powered opponent as the victim’s scream lasted a considerable time to indicate the shooter remained in advantage.
These deductions can be give direction on the course of investigation and questioning.

Love misses road.

Love misses road
When love wants love
And love wants another.
Loves misses road.
When love is tired
Of dating and dating. ,
Love misses road
When love lacks commitment
And the ride is rough.
Love misses road
When love is deceived
That the grass is greener
Elsewhere,
Love misses road
When love decides it is better
To be alone
Love misses road.

Dating: the difference between men and women is a ring- the benzene ring.

The differences between the male hormone and the female hormones chemically are:
1. The benzene ring which is also found in the explosive TNT. and gives it its explosive property.
2. The female hormone has one less carbon.

This, the real chemistry between the sexes, is obviously highly metaphoric. The woman having one less carbon speaks of submission to her own husband. The benzene ring, a very important feature in organic chemistry, speaks of power. This ring is like closing in on your self, saying "no exterior disturbance". Benzene closes in on itself refuse to take on more hydrogen. Like a man closes in on himself to stick to his family. This is self-control and represents self-denial because the molecule would be much stable( satisfied) if it took on more hydrogen.  The difference between TNT and gunpowder(nitroglycerine) is this greater stabilty.  Gun powder is quick to go and dangerous for storage. However gun powder lacking the benzene ring is also heart medicine. Women are to be heart medicine to their families. Nitroglycerine is used to relieve heart pain.

In This Time of Changing Media 2

I see no threat to the writing profession/hobby. Even if a new kind of picture language(hieroglyphic) is invented nothing would have changed. Artists-of-the-minds-eye(writers) would adopt this to paint pictures for the mind. Writing does not have to be on paper: it has been on clay, on papyrus and then on paper. Wherever it goes next there we shall be. Paper and paper books are not quintessential to writing. It is like all art, the artistic urge that is permanent factor. Art will always find a medium.
And writing is still the most economical way to record and store ideas. It is a code(26 characters in the English language). It is not going away, and paper would be around a long while. I’m looking to the new medium. I am writing this electronically and putting words down in light, no ink stains, the eraser is button and I have three options. Music is diffusing from my writing device. I have access to almost all the information in the world on(through) this device. Shakespeare will be jealous. Why must material be on paper? Even agents don’t want paper queries.
Why bemoan the publishing business.Writing is the commonest skill in the world. The system is clogged up somewhat because everybody has a story to tell. It is tight in other lines of trade as well because everybody has something to sell. We are going to write with light and sell in light. There are a billion pictures to choose from if you need some scenery. It is now easier than ever before, since the world was created, to get published. People publish their thoughts everyday on Facebook and other sites, and broadcast everyday on You-tube. This is the age of the freebie. You rake in the revenue from advertisement. 

Uknown People in Unknown Places.

The  unknown  people.
How about the unknown people somewhere,
Along the highway and the train route.
Do you feel sorry for them?
They seem so lost in this cold place
This unknown place without a name.
But he knows you,
He knows you water and pass flatus
He knows you are kind like his mama
Jolly like his brother
Tender like his sister
He knows CNN and the Superbowl,
No he doesn’t and he doesn’t care.
What about the vast forest s and empty fields,
Nobody lives there !
There are ants there and plenty bugs,
The trees are growing and the grass is rich
There is business going and most members are happy,
They don’t need you here.

Nigeria Police.
A force that lashes out
In frustration,
Not knowing what to do
About a case.
Lashes out in mass arrest:
“Who do you suspect?”
Is the “investigation”
“Go and bring them in.”
A force without method:
Beatings and torture self-dehumanizing.
No logic, no system, no science.
Hardly a gentleman in the ranks.
Scoundrels of a primitive colonial tradition;
Uncivil and without honour.
Stupid hordes
Who lash out in mass murder
Not knowing how to get about solving a problem of terror.
Arresting en masse and killing en masse
For want of method and want of money.

Washington's Obelisk.

Washington’s Obelisk.
Why are they ashamed
Of ole George’s memorial?
Is it ole George?
Or his obelisk?
For it is said the great man
Did not live up to the words of the hallowed decalaration.
That he owned slaves.
Why is she ashamed of Washington’s obelisk
“it is not tech,”
Like Apollo rocket or the shuttle.
No it is. Very much.
Got me thinking dy/dx
Why are they ashamed of Washington’s memorial?
It is flawed,
Yes it is.
A color blemish
Midway up.
Like the man,
Like the nation.
Who made amend
At his life's end
Bequeathing yet a legacy of freedom
In a time most hard.

The Rainforest
The Great boughs 
Huge and strong,
Bearing record in ringly years
Of contest and conflict
Creeping,twisting, yawing
Seeking the light 
In the attritious affluence
Of this richest ecosystem
The planet has ever known.
