"debasing" poems
When Winchester races first took their beginning It is said the good people forgot their old Saint Not applying at all for the leave of Saint Swithin And that William of Wykeham's approval was faint. The races however were fixed and determined The company came and the Weather was charming The Lords and the Ladies were satine'd and ermined And nobody saw any future alarming. — But when the old Saint was informed of these doings He made but one Spring from his Shrine to the Roof Of the Palace which now lies so sadly in ruins And then he addressed them all standing aloof. 'Oh! subjects rebellious! Oh Venta depraved When once we are buried you think we are gone But behold me immortal! By vice you're enslaved You have sinned and must suffer, ten farther he said. These races and revels and dissolute measures With which you're debasing a neighboring Plain Let them stand —You shall meet with your curse in your pleasures Set off for your course, I'll pursue with my rain. Ye cannot but know my command o'er July Henceforward I'll triumph in shewing my powers Shift your race as you will it shall never be dry The curse upon Venta is July in showers—.

When Winchester Races
How dare society make us women feel like Our very own bodies is a prison, To be locked up behind the metal bars of our ******* Tied up by the chains of our curvy figures And the sentence lying between our thighs. And the sentence is brutal. Consent is no longer existent When the *** is too tempting for a man to say no And for you to say no. Our butts slapped, Chests groped, Cheeks pinched, Thighs squeezed, In this prison we had the decency to call our own body We are handcuffed to the degrading appetite of a man. Women are not a display of things to touch We are not a dessert menu for a man’s hunger To be ordered by catcalling: Want a taste of a woman’s behind? **** that *** A taste of **** Oh, baby, put on a show for us! Or just the full course meal- Hey girl, ow ow owwww! It is about time we strong women break free. The jailor of men- I stole the key. It is about time we change out of our prison uniforms of Bikinis and mini skirts and stilettos And break down the locks that confined us. Our prison sentence is just about up, And when we are let loose, Us women will no longer stand for such debasing behaviors. And when we’re free, It’ll be time to teach the men a little lesson This cage of our body does not define us, boys, Maybe try finding the prisoner behind the bars- Her personality, Charming smile, And brilliant intellect, Instead of demeaning our existence, Objectifying our importance- We are not your tools, your toys. We are humans, too, you know, With- get this- feelings. Try manners and kindness rather than Feeling and groping your way to a woman’s heart. We are not a play museum- we are the artifact, The masterpiece- Mona Lisa, Starry Night, the Sistine Chapel- You must stand behind the red velvet ropes and perform What the English language calls respect, With a thing also known as consent. This- my body- is also known as my body, It is not his, it is not hers, and most importantly, It is not yours. Please try to understand this- I know, it’s super complicated. And if you gain anything from this, let it be this: We are not here to satisfy you- Women are not prisoners to a man’s every need. We are not objects- no- And we deserve to be heard.

“We are the US government” We can print out of thin air Mister Sherman says aloud Which should be quite a scare But yet he says of Bitcoin (Amazing that he can dare) That bitcoin isn’t valuable But created from thin air Bitcoin has a cost to make A cost that can’t compare To fiat’s cheap and easy flow Debasing the saver’s share Thank you Mister Sherman For making us all aware Of your Cantillon privilege Printing money from thin air Study what a bitcoin costs To make one - with work & care And you’ll see Bitcoin’s value Come join and get a share Thank you Mister Sherman For helping us to prepare As our dollars get debased Since they’re printed from thin air

Out of Thin Air (Bitcoin Poem 054)
keeping warm by that old stove kicking back shots and always a beer in hand we lived as if nothing could ever matter for nothing ever changed the same man sleeping at six or seven having passed out from half-a-days work and a hard days drinking sitting around there for warmth some kind of something men don't often talk about much women there were hard to find, not for lack of trying they just always seemed so out of place when they did actually appear extending the night was the main concern making the most out of the ample time given to us trying desperately to squeeze out juice from every instant with anything free at hand retreating back to sofas for sleep waking up with head aches intolerable beer cans all around going hard because there was no where to go debasing our minds with the nights succulent spoils tabbed pilled or powder madness feels like sanity at the right moment knowing full well it can't be caught as it slips through your fingers only to be inhaled the following friday then blown away once again at day break a perpetual mind **** was the goal with actual ******* just secondary reasoning living to forget what it means to be alive in this world where identity has been distilled to mere pages in an infinite book that doesn't really exist what else to expect from shattered youth abused mainly by design but also by choice you could class it all up increase the age and ornament add black books, black dresses black ties champagne & chandeliers still dormant at its core as time passes and falls apart the fire still there burns even in museums at midnight Dionysus consumes Apollo so warm your hands for as long as you can it only grows more insipid increasingly cold and bitter both the truth and the liquor till everything’s but a pause and black

strange to be surrounded by the heroism of the careful edit of Thespians, who can wage win or lose wars with a careful edit and the use of steroids to show the hardship of our former life now made easier - being surrounded by the staged heroism of careful edit, Thespian expression breeds in all a dissatisfaction with menial labours we could be better off to encourage as a non-victimising share of labour, and yet among such numbers of fellows we find our labours too menial, robbing us of the comfort of being as one among so many, only because we're being fed fake courage of Thespians and the subsequent fake adventures of the same profession, to only turn askance into the world and instead of adventure only seeing prospects of tourism, and former hardships of our forefathers as only menial banality. recitation of religous mantras seem all the more important with the blocked toilet of darwin's **** keeping the foremost populist adhesive among people reciting no other scientific theories - like that one about a pea-sized dollop of toothpaste and any more actually causing nicotine colouring on your teeth - dentists                  &                  money &                             each             other trade (tried and tested, agreeable paradox). well currently darwin and einstein are instructing societies in terms of respectable talk, talk so respectable that no counter opinion can enter, because too few scientific facts are given mantra status... cite me a theory from chemistry, cite me at least one thing about thermodynamics... exactly, you can't! we might as well endear a harking laugh of a fox and the howling bark of dog - because the western dogma mantra is so limited - maxims replace poems and poems are hid whether under the debasing blanket of lyrics that are simple due to excess instrumentation and no hope of singing in duo presence of both singer and the one expecting song - or under blankets of fictive corpses of bored readers - as once noted and spotted: a funeral service corporate "shop" and in it too st. francis' hospice selling charity books. should shiva's attainment of vishnu's peace of mind be attained and subsequently lost, shiva's third eye opens and turns the mind toward the only subsequent definition of former attainment of peace, the third eye opens and turns to warring and destruction; toward the east, Asia's Thespians are known as Avatars - if not thieving from men, then at least enriching gods.

Debasing money is not just wrong And generally suspicious It’s personally destructive It’s insulting and malicious For those who store their value The hard working and ambitious To have their value stolen Is insulting and malicious Whether it happens quickly Or slow and surreptitious It’s pure and blatant theft It’s insulting and malicious For those who don’t have assets It’s particularly vicious But for ALL who use the fiat It’s insulting and malicious That dollars can store value Over time, is quite fictitious In not much time, the value melts It’s insulting and malicious With Bitcoin, we have a choice It’s purpose quite auspicious You can choose between the two I hope you’ll be judicious

Insulting and Malicious (Bitcoin Poem 115)
there’s usually two ways of writing an abstract like one might have written one for a chemistry experiment, a debriefing, a plot summary as you might have it, although in philosophy it’s either geometric of algebraic, to take into account a chance meeting between sartre (b) and descartes (a) i can only utilise the algebraic in a framework of a platonic schematic, i.e. dialogue, and since dialogue then casually, in conversation, like so: example no. 1 (exercise of good faith) (a) i think i had      a brain haemorrhage                                                                (b) i doubt it. example no. 2 (exercise of bad faith) (b) i had       a brain haemorrhage                                                                (a) how do you know?                                                                      (i.e. i’ll deny this statement.) it really is as simple as that, after all, all the ball of wool untangling in the standard philosophy books is meddled at times, it is hard to craft an entry of a decent dialogue without the one-sided stance of monologues that fill the pages of books, but take any major tenet of the two philosopher’s works and set a scene of two buddies talking in a pub, and that’s you having skipped the best 200 pages of untimely meditations and about 400 pages of being and nothingness - not out of rudeness but on the simple basis: **** i understood it! so if anything can be relevant in modern philosophy, and that’s modern from 17th century to the present era it is only relevant when applying a platonic schematic, because it has to be talked about, and when talked about simplified, because why would anyone want to over-complicate and apply an aristotelian schematic of inspection by writing very crude philosophies by the simple process of over-complicating the thinking process as that, which does not necessarily need thought attached to it - like at present, with western society debasing any original theology by forcing all the ills of the world as the adequate justification... the origin of this, you will find, is not from the people who suffer as such, but from people who are safe, healthy and satiated with adequate materialism, the kind to have a very english middle-class sentimentality to care for whimsical sensibilities, prudences and etiquette in general, that's how placebo atheism works, it's still a ****** theology, the real atheists? hmm, guess... the list is pretty dramatic in the way they approached coupling freedom and will and others - that's why i prefer my invention of coupling a placebo effect with atheism... rather than writing out a theology of absence - look... here's a trick: a theology of indefinite absence (a) / theology of definite absence (the), and then the ism from empiricism.

take money out of the equation, and sack all the waiters and return to tribalism, the former statement of non-intellectual socialism, the sort of inherent: in us there is a togetherness, no more service from strangers in the hierarchy of enriching a piece of metal or a wavy rectangle of paper with “necessary” symbolism of authority of the status quo... but that’s not going to happen... the pickpocket picts are no more... the normalising normans glared at the hastings pinnacle and integrated with the saxon women... the saracens became surnames in poland... actually that last one is very true... a branch of my family has the surname saracen. so i’m reading this article and i’m hardly debasing myself, it’s not that i’m referring to sartre’s negation of certain things whether animate and essential or inanimate and existential... in that formula: i deny therefore i am... because i can’t deny my existence... and 2000 years down the line i’ll be pitchfork argument in an atheist’s mouth anyway (nothing is certain in the realm of cognition, hence the cartesian invocation of doubt), it's not like i'm referring to inappropriate pronoun usage... so **** a doodle do... twang the strings on the mandolin... i’m referring to this classical reference of the shy literary figure unable to spark conversation with strangers... god, i really love strangers, and talking to them! why? there is no personal history, there’s no past, there are no reference points... it’s just the moment and nothing else, the perfect anonymity project... not the matrix philosophy (easily invoked because it has a flimsy plot-line and loads of images... just what the doctor ordered for the english speaking masses with a very naked orthography - i.e. if it’s on the internet it’s not “real life...” as is this computer i’m using it’s not even here!) of using the deep web to join the rats and etc.; i love talking to strangers, i can forget myself and enter the realm of discretion about how within randomisation of eggshell, yoke and cockroach there’s also the randomisation of the interactants to balance out the need for a theological unit, god... it’s great... it’s like... it’s like... life. defining the genre of biography proper? never backtrack... always sidetrack... i can’t be bothered living a life with cocktail parties and romps and romantic comedies to look forward to once all the animalism becomes domesticated and a gym-session complaints column in a newspaper.

most days i'm thinking: thank god i didn't give you a smile; for all the love that abounds and binds man, thank god mine was not translated into a failure of dis-encouraged children not achieving a higher ideal; leave me dreaming, and you too left the happiest ably resourceful in me minding the outer so-called existential suburbia; i know, the english vocabulary does not like the ponce of philosophical involvement... it doesn't even like the word as such... it prefers: manager of deleted files, safety manager of hammers, contract supervisor of termites, you know... all the Monty Python ha ha, goose strut ha ha (funny walk ministry); very debasing contrasts of "real" jobs not being kindred of coal-miners... no real jobs in the office, although sold as such they are considered "real", to get to grips with underused triceps and quasi-haemarrhoids of sitting on your *** all day playing candy crush sh'aga... or some **** about the Shanghai stock-market creating a booming Hong Kong housing experiment of noodle lovers ready for some artificial intelligence ***** chat; hey, if pink is the new ***** of fluffy handcuffs... sign me up! i'm ready for the near voyeuristic claustrophobia of living in over-crowded high-rise accommodation.

Do you feel you’re running twice as fast? But only getting half as far? Do you see your money doesn’t last? No matter how diligent you are? Do you want to know a better way Than the dollar’s debasing plan? A saving method - come what may? Well with Bitcoin you surely can! Save in a money with staying power Not in money losing strength Bitcoin’s yet young - a budding flower And will open full bloom at length Or, just keep on running twice as fast Yet not going far at all While the money printers have a blast And your savings continue to fall

I was walking down the street, but wasn't alone. The person in front of me  was myself, maybe it was him that wasn't alone. I was the shadow. Nervously, I asked where we are going. Myself told me we were going to this girl's house that I had long time feelings for. After answering my own question, we pulled together into one entity, as if my consciousness was playing catch up to my physical body. We are now outside her house, I knock on the door and she answers. After inviting me in, she sits me down at her table and prepares tea. It was a dark blend, strong aroma yet a weak body. A few silent moments pass of us just sipping tea. She stands up and informs me that she has to take a shower. She request that I wait and relax here for her. She goes off to shower. I notice there is a stack of small saucer plates in reaching distance. Slowly reaching, gripping, and pulling the plates to me, I hold them in my hands close to my chest. My arms slowly lift the stack of plates up to my mouth and I bite into the stack of plates. Chewing the shards doesn't cut my gums, but I can feel the pain in my teeth. After a hard swallow, I take another bite. This continues until the stack of plates are even halved. Suddenly, I begin to worry what she will think or say about the debasing of her plates. Greater fear fills me when I begin wonder what she will think when she sees that I didn't finish eating them and they are being wasted. I convince myself to continue eating the plates. Before I can take the next bite, I begin to worry what will happen when these shards pass through my bowels. Anxiously, I set the plates on the table and continue to sip tea while I wait for her to finish showering. She never returns.

I was walking down the street, but wasn't alone. The person in front of me  was myself, maybe it was him that wasn't alone. I was the shadow. Nervously, I asked where we are going. Myself told me we were going to this girl's house that I had long time feelings for. After answering my own question, we pulled together into one entity, as if my consciousness was playing catch up to my physical body. We are now outside her house, I knock on the door and she answers. After inviting me in, she sits me down at her table and prepares tea. It was a dark blend, strong aroma yet a weak body. A few silent moments pass of us just sipping tea. She stands up and informs me that she has to take a shower. She request that I wait and relax here for her. She goes off to shower. I notice there is a stack of small saucer plates in reaching distance. Slowly reaching, gripping, and pulling the plates to me, I hold them in my hands close to my chest. My arms slowly lift the stack of plates up to my mouth and I bite into the stack of plates. Chewing the shards doesn't cut my gums, but I can feel the pain in my teeth. After a hard swallow, I take another bite. This continues until the stack of plates are even halved. Suddenly, I begin to worry what she will think or say about the debasing of her plates. Greater fear fills me when I begin wonder what she will think when she sees that I didn't finish eating them and they are being wasted. I convince myself to continue eating the plates. Before I can take the next bite, I begin to worry what will happen when these shards pass through my bowels. Anxiously, I set the plates on the table and continue to sip tea while I wait for her to finish showering. She never returns.

Humans are fallible in many ways One way human weakness is shown Is by inevitably debasing a money supply NO human has been able to resist the short Term gain for those in power, but only pain And suffering for the majority of the people Therefore Since we can’t make infallible human beings We must move the money supply out of the Control of humans completely. We do this Through cryptography and mathematics Bitcoin is the rules based decentralized Solution for this human fallibility issue

Fallibility (Bitcoin Poem 071 - Problems and Solutions 16)
I have often thought of myself as an angel of death. Destruction meekly keeps step with my pacing vigil, and blooms wherever I might rest. In truth I blindly seek it out Guided by a waning star, groping in the blackness. to find at the precipice of stumbling disaster, An observatory, Where a great expanse of purpose can be viewed. A veil is lifted, And we are swaddled and lulled into reform. As dust mingles with contrasting shadow, So do we mingle in an ethereal realm. Awaiting an equinox, Or celestial alignment, Of the body and the soul. Seeking a corner of the universe, Where we might meditate on our grief. You looked saintly, With your head tilting downwards, Like Madonna in Pietà. At peace, To greet your heavenly messengers, Of jovial cherubs with golden horns Swirling in their circling dance. Trumpets lift the fluttering chorus. As they lead you by the hand. Your youngest son, In a brief visit, Sat beside you in your aphasic reverie, As he left he said, 'Bye bye mom', For the very last time. Even pushing fifty, He is still your baby boy. The afternoon of your departure, with your hollow vessel in it's room. We discussed mortuaries and memorials, And when to disrupt the family, (In the middle of their labor day barbecues), With the news. While the neighbors are raffling their joys, In their respective complexes, This house, At the end of the lane, Floats disjointed from the material world,   and the journey through the infinite vacuum, Without tethers, To time and space. Is debasing to say the least. Dissolving expectations and resolving the ego, As we dress your body in your favorite colors.

The history of fiat Is chock full of breaches Of centralized power That pushes and reaches Debasing our money The looters and leeches Gaslighting people With Keynesian speeches Where is our money In fractional banks? They lend out in bubbles And give us no thanks Restricting our freedoms With raw overreaches Yes, the history of fiat Is brimming with breaches But now we have freedom From theft and abuse A better money in Bitcoin And the power to choose

Facing it
Do not tell me not to talk so much, while you sit there in your stoic, vague, unreadable, silence...... Playing your life-like a poker game, looking for “tells” in everyone, feeling lucky, deeming us out here as damaged, missing, broken, Constantly awaiting my next **** up. That **** up that you know is going to happen. Coldly, methodically critiquing my every move, painting me incapable of producing a life worth living. How clever you think you are, to not laugh at my jokes or not carry on conversation unless you deem it worthy. You do all of this to not give up your “tell”. Not let anyone into your world. Do not tell me to not flail my hands when I talk, because you are not as excited about your life as I am. In fact do not think you have authority to deem anything I do as right or wrong. You do not have that luxury. If and until you learn to love yourself your ego will continually feed itself by debasing, feeling the need to change everyone around you. How tiring it must be to sit in judgment of me, picking apart my existence. What goes on in your narcissistic mind, that makes you not accept me as I am? Why is my freedom less important than your picture of how I should be? Although, not intentionally, from your dysfunctional life, you have produced a seeker of the truth. And Love was the stimulus. The love that I never saw. I learned to love myself.......unconditionally. But where did that enlightenment come from? It came from Love itself. Tapped me on the shoulder, wrapped its arms around me, and led me to the light of truth. You will turn around one day and look for me, I will be gone. You will have no one to share the rest of your life with. This short, meaningful, time we have on this earth, the one you ****** with and lost....... There will be no one willing to play your poker game, and you will have to die alone. I believed you, I looked at myself through your eyes and I saw the misfit that you believed I was, and I bought it. After all, you are the one from whom I was to learn life. But I did not get the education I deserved. I was formed out of your mind, from a mistake you made. And I was made to believe that I too was a mistake. Because you couldn't keep your **** in your pants. I am the product of a hot August, unairconditioned night of sweaty lust.....and it was probably my Mother's manipulative doing. She needed to keep you around, so why not another kid to suckle her *** and make you go out and make more money. Was I planned, did you look into my Mother's eyes and lovingly say, let's make a baby? I think not. You ****** up. Enter the rearing of a mistake. **** you will never know just how incredible I am, you will never see me as I am, you will never see anyone as they truly are. You are so brainwashed with you prejudice, playing your poker game, looking for your “tell”.........

you must know how i feel when the boy next door decides to shoot hoops rather than kick a football against the shed and the woman next door takes off the clothes from the washing-line while slayer’s raining blood blasts in my room and is audible to a teasing treat outside, while the grey grey skies of england make me wear sunglasses... home... that’s what it feels like, it could almost be 1666 with charles the second organising the excavation of the z in ß - and as due concerns go... having no diacritic in the sphere of letters will only provoke a monster of youth debasing language furtherest from the furtherest use of truth (emoticons)... making swear words holy will only provide excuses to pulverise the eyes with *********** it will end up a mistake to have crafted such eloquent reminders of the said and unsaid with: f*ck smear cow s&@~ on your face.
