Always honorable conundrums, the flies in the ointment. Try to stand for goodness, justice, mercy, all singular goodness, motives and damned good people. Damned good images. Damned good damned support for damned good myths and martyrs sternly and strongly on the sides of the better angels of our nature or the better angels in heavens glorious chorus.
Love the chooser. Hate the choice. Love the honor. Hell if its sullied. Ahh, the fidelity. The goodness, mercy freedom, passion, democracy, love, honor, obedience. Ahh, the heart warming virtue. The frustration, the failures, the damned fine print. Some trick ponies that just won’t do the tricks we got them for.
Fear the future and the past. Patriotic words and happy fire brands. Always entertain and sicken and turn right wrong and virtue to sham. It takes work to frame the fine print. And finesse. And sureness. Damned sureness.
The freedom to be unfree is a freedom granted those who get the freedom to choose. Rhetoric tells them so.
What a problem What a predicament. Go freedom. Go Democracy. Go unholy jail and captivity. Be free enough. Let freedom rin, stoically. In heavens name let freedom ring, stoically. Ahh, the complexity. Ahh, the toil. Ahh, the temperamental nature of worlds and words.
Passions. Wishes. Unfinished business…more. War by other means. Care what you wish for while holding high a beacon to the weary, blurred, wily little word.
Freedom from thought. Freedom from action……Gone with the wind and the talk of the chump. Ahh…… the usual sound and fury signifying nothing. Balance of power. This hallowed multipurpose all in one superbly adept and equally awe inspiring product and export, badge and club, sincere piece of the human soul and rotten apple democracy. Ahh…… the usual sound and fury signifying nothing.
Sell Arab springs. Wisconsin autumns. Central American knives. Sell the cheap stuff in the pretty boxes. Too damned hard to sell the stuff that works. Too damned hard to build the stuff that works.

Dominance Games: Usual Draconia
Posted in Commentary, News, Politics, Uncategorized, writing with tags Commentary, Democracy, Government, Lies damned lies and statistics, news, political commentary, politics, power, social criticism, writing on May 19, 2011 by B SchiffYou can never tire of the the law of unintended consequence. We can go to hell and back in order to make sure that good ends get accomplished and that good tools are set aside to accomplish them. Kings of the world always trust in their own good intentions kings of the world laugh at the joke that power corrupts and that absolute power corrupts absolutely. “The necessity of my invention demands that my intentions be sanitized and that my intentions be purer than yours…you damned harpie blank blank, you damned crying bastard blank blank.” Kings of the world are that which the world needs to set itself right.
Now this is a thing we all know. The clear efficiency of dogma and faith, of certainty and divinity is what holds us all upright. The monkeys have no such things. They float with Darwin’s bones.
Good god, certainty is a comfort and certainty is a thing that save us our night terrors and gives us the strength to go on. If you want to blow up a village then blow up a village. It is ever necessary to blow up a village to preserve it. That works the mind and frees the spirit.
Saviors and warriors, thinkers and doodlers know that power is good…it is good to have power, good to hold it, good to cherish it, good to shine and buff it. No power is bad power if the power broker has , holds and owns it sweetly.
As for those unintended consequence……draconia can get turned on its head if it is not complete and totally ruinous. Try as they might this is often the case…that plus the hysteria and apprehension of those wishing to ordain that the right world keeps going and going, expanding and expanding…like a big bad nightmarish balloon…this we know. But lets do it anyway. The simple truths of accomplished minds and self righteousness of accomplished spirits also deserve to have their days in the sun…til they blot it out.
Some usual Draconia.
