  Mad Men
« on: July 11, 2009, 09:50:52 AM » by Dax







God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins.

(Evil suits your face Son - the "Y" of all crime figures.)

3.


What kind of a fuck-up parent pulls such a stunt in the first place? The special kind with a strict nanny whose demand of language was anything but fun — just look at the poor state of Jesus — and the saddest excuse for mankind to butcher a way toward self-righteous ruin.

So trip the light fantastic Christians, feel-good folk get to bank on news being miserable for the duration. And in case you're left wondering around the rim of this nannylike logic, relax. Every freudian slip deserves a mug shot-to-shit over a silly garret fetish.

Give a gal a break, right — miracles happen — just so long as they hype the right "I'll be back" brand of mores with good reason.

Glossary of Terms

Avant-garde: work at the forefront — cutting edge, unconventional, risk taking.

We have come a long way from stenographic expressions with notched sticks and twig bundles. Today we can run with the luxury of frivolity and wander the world-wide plains with every creature imaginable at our fingertips. This is also a curse.

A writer must write. Here we happen to write poetry. I enjoy many forms, whereas others may not. What I will say, is no one need fear words or an internecine of sanctions for what they believe. This is not the case elsewhere.

To speak out is no privilege, neither is a want of respect.
But for some reason, sharing such ideas is the hardest lessons we face.
This is the human condition we love to hate and just why — all the fuss — makes us nuts.
 Especially, me!

Dax, your writing seems to spring sui generis out of your pen, like Lewis Carroll's. Combines funny & angry, colloquial & erudite, sharp & obscure, in language that seems like it existed naturally somewhere in the mind before I ate mushroom, and will exist there naturally afterwards, know it or not.
Above it all, sometimes, hovers an air of love, or compassion.
The heart of "Mad Men" for me is the "silly garret fetish"--a koan that'll spend the day with me, I have the feeling.

ciao, bueno, G

but depend 

on one, full-blooded

to want
a fusion of minds
fear not

I
write then
just

because
we become
much, much more

ps  I do understand (usted) the sensitivities involved in my stuff and never, ever, lose face of those near and far places where such words warrent calls of a death sentence whenever uttered — believe me, I know. Thank you for your support.

There is a grand difference in religion and spirituality.  And I am so glad there is.

'Nuff said, by me, anyway.

Interesting and controversial write, d.

"We need to form society from our soul and spirit, not from our cleverness and evidence. A healthy honourable society will not make sense, and will not be predictable. It will make experts cringe. It will be, for the self-reliant, a joyous, mysterious and abundant adventure." ~ Peter Alexander

Dax, this was arresting.  Love the line "the saddest excuse for mankind to butcher a way toward self-righteous ruin."  Well said and most accurate. 

Well done, Sir.
