I want to know who has to pay, so I can play my life out true. I want the info close, and near at hand. I want a truthfulness hard ringing from tall towers on our world. I want to learn, perform research, and understand. My understanding would include appreciation of a rawness to the news that we don't get too well at all. Massaged, manipulated, and pre-digested for our use, it obfuscates the issue, and performs convenient stalls. Anomaly is ridiculed, and crap is spewed prime time by the well coifed talking heads that toe a line. Truth is lost in fractured constructs of the narrowly conceived, the truth, if seen, is seen a single time.

Have the guts to ring unpleasant, and be damned like Pete Arnett, who lifted at the edges of our scab. The *machine* will scuttle in, and pick the bones of righteous men like a cockroach, or a demon, or a crab. Me thinks *they* doth protest too much the story was untrue -- that poison gas was used to murder . . .folks. It's been made for just that purpose, and been purchased for the use, or gas production's mythic -- but a joke.

Are things alive that fly our skies while Bill is porking Monika? Just two human beings in need they grope -- get sweaty. They do something undecreed in ways as old as driving need -- then _lie_ to pay a freight too harsh and weighty. And while we spend the money checking Presidential penis, anomaly fair flirts, or charms, and teases. The money won't go there 'cause the profits more a bear, though the kingdom _is_ much nearer -- that's egregious. If we knew the final secret we might find we had salvation in a wealth of toleration unimpaired. It was always here at hand, that precious kingdom, understand --and permissiveness its blessing, I declare.

You'll see them if you look up, and just simply watch your skies. You'll see them dance and caper right before astonished eyes. You'll see them float serenely like they haven't wit nor care. You'll see them if you'd see them, if you've courage; if you'd dare! You'll see them making liars of the skepti-bunky slugs -- you'll see prevarication from the Phil Klass CSICOP thugs. If enough of us _would_ see them they would land right on our yards, we'd invite them in for tea, and we'd have them by for cards. You can bet our pretty newsmen, and the gals that spread the lies are embarrassed by their actions that I'm sure they _must_ despise. Those that pull Satanic phallus for their ease of great position should evaluate their options for complaint. There's a time you might be useless 'cause the paradigms have shifted and all that's left is cluelessness. And pain.

And it doesn't have to be that way -- I shake my fist right in your face! It doesn't have to shake out quite like that!! It's never _had_ to be that way, the kingdom's here at hand! But assaulted by true criminals -- psychopathic human rats. And not the one's you'd think might come, from the bottom of the pile, but the one astride his shoulders that then bleeds him 'till he's riled. We accumulate our capital with pretension and a smile. We're lying to our children, so our lips are slick with guile. We teach convenient structures reproductionist in scope. The kids find out, perhaps, too late -- are let in on the *joke*.

Behold the yawning gullet of the never ending cosmos! Perceive there's so much more of it than you. Understand it, as it happens, that is anything can happen in its length and breadth, and awesome depth -- it's true. A heaven and a hell is there to take us on a trip through trackless time and thought and endless space. Dimensions will be traveled like we take a bus uptown if we live beyond the limits of our present mad disgrace.

How does one get the raw news -- lurk on transponder signals, or what? When I think of raw news, I think of people like L.M. Howe, or Chuck Shrameck. These are two that seem to discover something interesting, and pass it on to the rest of us, for all their recent vilification and censure. I remain in their camp; however, because they are, I perceive, motivated by guilelessness and honesty.

Look -- somebody comes to _ME_ with something interesting, and I would like to think I would pass it along . . . as THEY have. I'd let you make up your own mind. If the "something interesting" turns out to be a hoax -- then it was STILL my effort that got it the attention it needed to be proven so! It's still a step up! That's why I want the raw news, it's a step up from the clutches of a manipulated culture <g>, and being programmed what to think. Chuck and Linda would do well by me to be just keeping on the way they're keeping on! Jeff Rinse springs to mind -- Laura Lee et. al.; continue to show a courage the mainstreamers don't have the nads for, and keep the twitchy info coming. Keep it RAW! After all the additives and preservatives the mainstream provides, there is little nourishment, and a lessor amount of truth, LEFT!

Restore John Ford!
