Uncle Cayman Islands Sam



Far out in the desert,
cactus man, liar,
putting out fires,
puts his money
off the coast,
but would never
float his boat

Runs to this,
runs to that,
the only truth
really is
he'll always
be phat

Tried to get
me 'ed into this game,
but time and money people
are all the same
No one but myseff
to bwayme

Walked tall in shadows,
crawled in the light
Ain't no fun out there
that isn't paid for
by Uncle Cayman Islands Sam
and his mighty mighty might
It's just his dollar, Bill,
and it's just awe right

Far out in the ocean
in the land of Honor Lee
is a ghost ship sailing
waitin' for just one capital capitan
whose mind is actually free

And so on it sails,
no visitors for even whales
Uncle Cayman Islands Sam
You are the no man band

Fear fuels your Starship Enterprise
and castles are your sand
Couldn't get my mind on your time
so once again it's
fuck the clock, man!

    My review of the first night of the Democratic National Convention? It was like the scene from the Wizard of Oz, where I have just been rained on after being hypnotized from last week's mind-numbing GOP field of poppies fiasco, when my mind felt like it had been crushed into the shape of an aluminum can't ... fear in the field of hogwash being driven away by a feeling ... something long forgotten ... going all of the way back to ... 2008 ... when I felt, what? ... what ... ah, I remember now ... Hope?

    We the People, in order to get out from under authority's boot, have been politely wondering, for some time now in the streets of America, where is our militant's parade, our cannon shot of glory, our right to file our own single sheets of official government paper, to put our mind's at rest, knowing justice will be done for all ... http://mythville.blogspot.com/

    The first drawback of anger is that it destroys your inner peace; the second is that it distorts your view of reality. If you think about this and come to understand that anger is really unhelpful, that it is only destructive, you can begin to distance yourself from anger.
