The Buddha in Chiraq.

i just caught up with Chiraq, the movie, and saw the mural on the courts in the park by my house a block from Obomba's house, where i saw my first shootout. the premise of Lysistrata and Chiraq is strained of course. who ever believed sex or lack thereof could stop war. it was rhetorical i know, satirical, to satirize the warmongers and the entrepreneurs with guns. but the gangs and the warmongers are the same, it's economics, not sex, well it's always sex, and it's always economics, but they kill for money. of course sex drives them too, it drives them like money, it's all the same primitive impulse. but even these getting the booty want the booty you know what i'm saying, though you might murder more lustfully if you ain't gettin' it. 

 

would that it were that simple: world peace in the hood. just a booty call away. a world away.
