"kleptocracy" poems
A hippodrome as smoke adjourn those can wrap Havanas blunt while Manila fish for sordino they reek of harvest yet exhume Moro then San Mateo shall not a maraschino bane whether they've sought bastion in Italy then once their hopes shall keep ships ahoy and Sabatini sing San Marino here that sandcastle star await his lover in "The Sea Hawk" a fine costume whence sail those Antilles with a conquistador as buttress in this play they call Those Philippines alas meet El Duarte in a duet with his song set aflame with great sleeves in such kleptocracy worldwide again.

Filipinos Journal A Memoir
American Democracy is setting a trend: American Democracy is a Sitcom, or perhaps a Game Show of demagogic, narcissistic sociopaths tricking and manipulating the Public via various sources in a highly consolidated Media industry into thinking they vote for a particular flavor of Tyranny when in reality Today's flavor of Tyranny is all decided for you because the burden of Choice is far too stressful for the Moderner without proper medication, and the power of Choice may require some sort of educated critical Thinking, some sort of re-edification which is far too much for us to handle in this socially sanctioned doped-up state and with such an intentionally failing Education system from K through 12 and beyond. With American Democracy, We have a grand Illusion of Choice. It's so convincing that many believe the Illusion is True. (Sort of like hew we think of Reality, but with Choice of Government!) For American Democracy, They don't want mass Education. They don't want mass Edification. They don't want Critical Thinking; Those things prevent a Control by few. In American Democracy, They intentionally destroy progresses made, like Rights, They perpetuate stigmas about things like genders and the concept of "race" itself They propagate Terror as their Sheeple scream from the sidelines for more They defile the sanctity of Human Experience, of Reality itself and chain us to a system that benefits only a few while destroying everything else, like Climate and Environment. These Demagogues are Satan, if Satan is real: They tempt us with the things we don't need, filling us with Stress, Desires, Prejudices and Fears, and ceaselessly wage war on institutions of Education, all the while keeping us from finding the things we already have within each of us. This System of American Democracy has degraded into a  corrupted fractal of the ages-old ways of Tyranny and Terror: Aristocracy, Plutocracy, Patriarchy, Oligarchy, Kleptocracy, Demagoguery, Bankocracy, Corporatocracy, Fascism; Tell me, What is the ******* difference? I mean, even Adolf ****** was elected democratically under the pretense of "Change" then, for weeks later, suspended civil rights indefinitely after a likely false-flag 'attack' on the Reichstag in 1933, (for which the Nazis blamed the communists.) under the pretense of "Security": Demagoguery runs Amok Among disedified Minds. They say "Freedom" and "Democracy" as if it vindicates their Totalitarianism.

Mao Zedong’s revolution deposed the ancient, 5000 year old rule of Dynastic China. In doing so he espoused the continuous violent struggle by contradictory forces within society to produce a perpetual disequilibrium of revolt against intellectualism and Confucian principle and practice. With the global collapse of Communistic systems, the wily genius of the diminutive, Deng Xiaoping, breathed new life into the faltering rule With a cunning rebranding of “Socialism with Chinese Characteristics”, he maintained the stability of Chinese Communist kleptocracy until relatively recent times. But the middle class awakening of Tiananmen Square and the recent Hong Kong massed protest, has brought into focus the demands of an increasingly educated, increasingly affluent, Chinese society’s expectation and demand for increased democratic rights and freedom and a more just system of the Rule of Law. The day of the old, strong arm, autocratic rule is over. China is emerging, quite naturally, into a world of increased information freedom, where the seeking of each individual’s betterment and independence promises a brighter future of personal dignity, increased self-esteem and an emerging sense of high anticipation. President Xi Jinping’s Chinese Communist Party is now presented with the challenge to moderate in order to survive. To endeavour to embrace and meld the old concepts of Confucian harmony to the vaulting expectations of China’s new world beckoning. M. Denmark, Western Australia. 5 October 2014

China Must Change.
Mao Zedong’s revolution deposed the ancient, 5000 year old rule of Dynastic China. In doing so he espoused the continuous violent struggle by contradictory forces within society to produce a perpetual disequilibrium of revolt against intellectualism and Confucian principle and practice. With the global collapse of Communistic systems, the wily genius of the diminutive, Deng Xiaoping, breathed new life into the faltering rule With a cunning rebranding of “Socialism with Chinese Characteristics”, he maintained the stability of Chinese Communist kleptocracy until relatively recent times.

And the Refugees of Atlantis scattered and became Gypsies on the Sea.. They would, ironically, be portrayed as “Pyrates” by the new Kleptocracy.

The Deluge
Into the bloodshed, into the fiery cavernous opening of the crusade Ignited by righteous scraps of cloth and metal Ignobly formed into crudely significant, textured shapes Iconoclasts to their own ideals Idyllic in their self-mockery. Jabbering like hellbeasts, the warriors drive into the flesh of the conflict Jettisoning armaments in the process, their Joie de vivre having been lessened by mechanical limits. Jocular slaughter synthesized with demonic cries. Kapellmeisters to the symphony of death, Keeping in the rhythm of mutilation, counterpoints of steel clashing against breastplates, giving shape to a Kleptocracy of life.

In Washington I smell a rat It’s Donald Trump, Trump is that With hair like that he should wear a hat Or feed his head to a junk yard cat. The smell’s the stench of hypocracy It’s the end of our democracy What’s in store is hard to see I hope it’s not kleptocracy. Can’t you smell that putrid stink each time you see him in printer’s ink? He’s taking us right to the brink of what it is, I hate to think. His are not very pleasant odors (he lost by several million voters) and when he speaks, we need decoders for him and his band of vile freeloaders. It’s not so pleasant, is his pungence that fills our airwaves in such abundance and drives us to such vile repugnance; can’t we lock him in some dungeons? But by next year I sense the aroma of voters’ rejection of this melanoma. We’ll all come out of this our coma from Maine to far off Oklahoma.
