Port Huron Statement

Port Huron Statement: "We are people of this generation, bred in at least modest comfort, housed now in universities, looking uncomfortably to the world we inherit."

Thursday


You measure a democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents,
 not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.

The Other Side of the River
by Xi Chuan
translated by Lucas Klein


On the other side of the river
there is a flame
a flame
burning May

burning August

when the pagoda tree blooms, the professor with lentigo bows to her
when orange blossoms fall, an heir of graceful demeanor waves to her
and smiles

yet on the other side of the river she remains, still burning
like the underwater glistening of red coral
like a red straw hat blown away in the breeze

when I saw her yesterday she was totally still, looking to the sky
and today she lowers her head to watch the river
if it were overcast and raining, what would she do there on that side
of the river?
—her flame would not go out

a poet looks to her
a farmer looks to her
a Dialectical Materialist looks to her
she is on the other side of the river, burning
burning May
burning August

 Lyrics to The Wild Hunt :
There is a crow moon comin in well you keep looking out
It is the hollow month of march now sweeping in
Lets watch phenomenon's that rise out of the darkness now
Within the light she is my storming heroin
And old machine's abandoned by the ancient racists and
I hear them hummin down below and hollow earth
Oh hell I guess I know no while I will go under to
But just for now I let the spring and storm return

I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin
I live until the call
And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone
Yes I'll be leavin' in the fall

And I will sleep out in the glade just by the giant tree
Just to be closer when my spirit's pulled away
I left a nervous little boy out on the trail today
He's just a mortal to the shoutin' cavalcade

I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin
I live until the call
And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone
Yes I'll be leavin in the fall

Let's open up the windows have satan departin' now
And we'll be even when the blues fall down like hail
Hell I don't even care no more about cadejo now
If he's a white one or a black one on the trail

I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin'
I live until the call
And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone
Yes I'll be leavin in the fall

Yes I'll be leavin in the fall

In the memory of Trayvon Martin by Roy Edward Sydnor III

What is it that makes you hate me so?
It's seems to have started long ago.
Is it the color of my skin or the guilt that you have for selling off my kin?
You brought me here on a ship to do your work
you sold me you raped my woman and today you still kill my children.
What have I done for you to treat me this way?
You call youself the master race to any God fearing man you are just a discrace.
I can't hate you for my God won't allow me too. I will pray for you and let only God judge you..

In the memory of Trayvon Martin

by Roy Edward Sydnor III







~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
so a guy with a gun follows a kid he finds suspect for several blocks,
 even as police are telling him over his 911 call to cease and desist from following the kid.

the guy shoots the child!

what's not premeditated about it?

puhleeze~!
