"THE MURDER OF THE TRUTH" (I borrow the title from Raphael Lemkin -Thank You, for reminding us of that!)

Far,

Out of sight,

There is a

Fight

We

Ought to

Win;

Not because of a sin but

Humanity!

 

Never,

Since the

Holocaust,

There was such a

Danger

Dangling over our

Heads

Like a guillotine!

 

And some

Very

Important

People

Think they

Have,

Not only the

Money

But the

Right

To

Wrong

Us all:

Are

We

Dazzled

By the bling?

 

The truth has been murdered many times before, but never on such a scale, and with the sure possibility of throwing the tech age to the darkest of all ages, ever!

NOT SO DIVINE

THE DIVINE RULER (BETA VERSION) 

Having had a successful career

Pushing people of the edge,

But only the undecided ones,

He boasts and brags about things,

All the things and nothing, really;

A fake believer of the divine,

Now that it is most convenient

To fast-forward his Agenda:

Make the Small Big Again.

MSBA

MSBA

MSBA

 

THE DIVINE RULER (BETTER VERSION)

 

Having had a successful career

Pulling people of the edge,

But only the difficult ones,

She talks and praises about fairness,

All true fairness, really;

A true believer of the humane,

Now that it is most necessary

To fast-forward anew:

Make the World a Better Place.

MWBP… no,

Just make the world a better place, please!

WAR (AGAIN)

Tree letters and
Such is the devastation

Could be:
We Are Right
But no matter what
In the end
All is wrong
Deadly wrong
 
People crying
The beloved dead
 
People looking for
The beloved alive
 
People trying 
To bring sense back
From the depths
 
And people
Still arguing
Who won
 
Who won?

JÁ DEI A ORDEM

Porque há uma necessidade (de) premente, neste nosso país, de uma Ordem para a Desordem, decidi cria-la. Podem inscrever-se todos os profissionais, com ou sem formação desde que tenham experiência comprovada, no ativo. Não têm de pagar quotas, basta que prometam entreajudar-se uns aos outros sempre que possível, ou necessário.

NOWHERE TO GO

Richer than ever, mighty than ever, deranged than ever… the gods have new faces: kid’s faces. Behaving more like gangsters, and annihilating everything that challenges them: to a wise debate where everybody can have a say without shouting or shooting; to a social gathering in person; to democratic partnerships; to further equality and fraternity; to DO THE GREEN DEAL; to end wars and start to build the global village where everybody’s welcome no matter their language, passport or creed…

We are wasting precious time to further so few agendas, of even fewer individuals, behaving more like criminals.

Time is not on our side, anymore!

Long live the free press! Don't let it become a commodity!

TRUMP'S TOO LATE

Actually, Greenland is Portuguese. The Treaty of Tordesillas, signed with Spain on the 7th of June 1494, is crystal clear on that.

Though a native, who does not want to remain anonymous, said it was all rubbish then, and it is all rubbish now, the difference being the IQ’s of each individual involved in the preposterous claims.

THE GULF OF AMERICA

The sinking ship is no longer sinking, and the rats are, now, mutineers. They replaced the fair-trade flag with the bully's flag and are on course to their off-shore hide-outs. 

No one dares, any longer, to go chase them. Not even any democratic country where democracy stands at its lowest popularity rate since ancient Greece's breakthrough. On life support -I would dare to say- no one knows even if it will survive!

I don't think there will be, ever, a treasure map to cheer us on a treasure hunt like in the old dreamy time!

Therefore, may greed turn enemies into brothers, and so on!

RATS NOT CATS

Usually, rats are the first to leave the sinking ship… accordingly, they were the first to have lunch with the president, I mean, the captain. All they have in common is the billions.

SO MANY SACRIFICED THEIR LIFES FOR...

Because of the way most people think and behave, today’s hitler would have achieved his goals undefeated and unopposed. Ultimately his reign would last a thousand years no doubt. 

I AM ASHAMED! I AM ASHAMED! I AM ASHAMED! 

I just hope it won’t be for a thousand years!
