the cats come home today. my back is stiff. the imperial military industry is terrorizing the middle east, colonizing populations with bombs, slaughtering people in the middle east, bombing hospitals. police are shooting citizens in their homes, terrorizing the people they should protect. it's an evil time. i dread winter. i miss swimming. so little is within our control. power is in the hands of tyrants and mass murderers. the cats come home today. my back is stiff. winter is coming.
