every violent action by american power and every corporate conquest of nature and humans alike makes me vote again in my heart, i abstain, if that were a real vote. being of the unrepresented majority, i don't have a vote. nevertheless i abstain from a vote for the empire of destruction.  by the way, i am a great heron, at least.

every heart is a revolutionary cell. the edukators.

every human invasion and occupation makes me more passionate about birds.

there was a body floating by 57th st beach. i wonder if the lifeguards put up the red flag to warn other swimmers. i'm glad we go to pebble beach where there are no bodies except us very much alive ones.

evil is a quaint notion in these super sophisicated, enlightened times, along with good, where we are informed and guided by the highest principles of democracy and capitalism, until it hits you,  dang me, i voted for evil, what was i thinking. i wanted to vote for the opposite of evil, what? relax, now there is no good and evil, only power, and it elects itself.

the worst thing you can say to a voter is, i abstain. they're like, what the fuck does that mean, you do nothing! too true. but when i was forced to take poli-sci mr. reiner said you can abstain!, it's a legitimate vote! against the brutes! anyway, as i was telling my mom again yesterday, we swim in evil like fishes, we cannot see this matrix, only the bodies floating in it.

so yeah up in here america we talk about the lesser evil, grateful that in a democracy, the democracy, we still have that precious choice. but we never get to vote for the lesser good, which might be less evil than the lesser evil. and maybe one baby step toward a democracy that respects life rather than democracy of war. but now democracy not only implies war, it means it.

when i was a child, i always felt more like more of a watcher than a player. i still feel like that. in real life. the edukators.
