DECENT
All I want is a decent world. Not a capitalist one! Not a communist one!
A peaceful and decent world!

SORROW
When all of the resources of a planet go to waste… I pity the people who made that decision for there are no real profit!

GREEN OR GREED?
Is this the zenith of greed?
Will we go green, back to the origin?
Not long after the Big Bang this would have been easier to answer. But, now, there are so many thinking heads, and the noise, and the profits, and the contradictions, and the lies, and, above all, the Big Mess -another type of Big Bang but social- it leaves us in the depths of the capital punishments -entanglements we’ve embraced in good faith!

MEN(IPULATORS)
I’ve never seen people well versed in the arts of telling such wise verbiage about a flat planet that exists, solely, on their precious, if hidden, treasure maps of yester.
But all of this entertaining verbiage is happening today, and spreading like wildfires: with the same outcome for an healthy society as 3rd degree burns. Again, it ain’t scaring people who love treasure hunting and wildfires: for fun and for excitement such dull lives.
At the forefront are the men with expensive suits, and pretending they have adorable wives whom they treat with utmost respect… when they are dressed in suit!
I love tie-breaks!

ALL THAT MATTERS
In the end , all that matters is food and shelter. If that is our main focus then health, good health and happy lives will blossom.
(We’ve seen how ownership let us down!)

SELF-RIGHTEOUS RULERS
Who make rules for others but them!
And forget to be kind, to show empathy, to be human!

MEMORY OF REALITY
I have been but I’m not anymore: the past was erased in the ‘cloud’, where my memories laid for a penny a month.
It’s so hard to live virtually, especially without any virtue of a pre-historic human -the creatures that lived here before the MACHINE- trough a thin memory that keeps popping on the screen: Please! Please!

THE FOIL INDUSTRY
Sucking the riches of the earth and leaving destruction behind, the foil industry goes on feeding male egos and companionships -it’s hard to be alone, and even the rich have basic needs, masked as orders, commanding orders.
To be obeyed!

MADE IN MEN
The noises obscure the senses and the punches fly all over. But no one gives in. (Men who don’t cry, that’s what it is!)
Some muscles In better shape than others, nevertheless, not necessary to send in the troops, at will, to fight their reasoning.
And many days, and many nights, after, the death toll is incredible. But not a bother: he who signs off the war, usually signs off the peace: funny enough, peace is, always, the last!

WHAT IS THE POINT?
Mutual destruction is an alibi. Not for you, not for me, but for the insecure to show strength.
No one is that mad to press the ‘delete’ button, but with proliferation it comes the very real, and serious, risk of an ‘ups’ moment… and nobody will be left to record the ‘moment’ on the history books. Nor to complain.
So, my point is about -being us humans the most intelligent animal ever, as it goes the myth: why do we do it? Why do we bother with arming ourselves to that point of a possible no return?
Yeah! Dissuasion! But wouldn’t be cheaper to just agree not to do it? Oh! Trust? Yes, that’s why we are not, really, the most intelligent animal on earth. Actually, all of the others are much more. And much more in unison with nature, their nature and mother nature!
-This is the.
P.S. it’s the suspicion, stupid!

PROFIT AS FAST AS (IM)POSSIBLE
In a world where danger loom on every corner we, the human race, have the ability to believe it won’t strike us anytime, any day. But, deep down in some brains, the threat is very real and believable. Amidst a new arms race, and arm twisting, the tension is rising in every European capital and beyond. The situation is very fragile (if futile) with the least democratic countries (to say the least) in the world trying, very hard, to bring on board as many countries as possible, in the sense of undermining and, forcibly, change the world (for worse, for sure) order into their dictatorial ways. I hope they will not succeed!
P.S. that’s what happens when democracies do business with dictatorships hopping (we should have known better) to bring them into the democratic world.
P.P.S. under the guise of respectable politicians caring for their people (immigrants and others excluded) but on the, shameful, payroll of the likes of Putin, we have a surge of traitors amongst us like never seen, not even at the peak of the cold war, doing the dirty work on behalf of dictators. Unbelievable!

THE WORLD’S ROCK(ING) ECONOMY
It’s like a boat being stormed at high seas!
P.S. leaving people economy sick. Constantly!

THE WAR HEROES THAT DON’T FIGHT
I’ve never been to any war, fortunately. For that lucky reason I am very thankful. But I know a lot about wars and what they do to humans caught up without any guilt, just bad luck.
But there are people , we can call them heroes though I believe they are just being, simply, humans who do care.
On the other hand, the war criminals that don’t fight too… guess who they are!

LAUNDERING EVERYTHING
The profits hanging in the clothesline are disappearing fast and the police can’t be there on time to apprehend it. All they can do is to leave empty handed and commiserate themselves. The government don’t really care, but pretend they do: this offshore thing is very useful for many. Meanwhile, some nasty criminals amass fortunes in the billions and can provide their henchmen with weapons for war against the police with weapons for crimes. Forget about it, the issue here is the collaborative nature of some masters of disasters, because the solution is in plain sight!

LEVEL DOWN
I wish i could comprehend why some humans hurt others in the name of their mutual god, their wisdom or their own! But I won’t, it’s wrong and shouldn’t happen: what is the sense of education if in the end it’s the military and the capital might that dictates the do’s and don’ts , life and death, success and survival? And then…
I wish I could fly up in the sky and harvest the clouds into an haven for each one of you/us, so we could live above and free; above and happy; above and free. And every time someone would dare to hurt willingly, his cloud would rain down and tear him to the ground, with the choice to be a river or a tear, and after a spell of good deeds, maybe turn into a cloud, again, in the future.

AI TO THE HUMAN RESCUE
Our brain’s will, at last, have a rest and disappear. Our heads, brainless at last, will need no more hair and will shrink to the size of a matchstick’s head. Brainless and with its small heads not commanding a thing, our hearts will fell in love much easily, and the chances of heart diseases will decrease for sure.
Estranged by this all the body will have much more energy to go on without sleep because, really, only the brain needs it. It’s going to be a hell of a party!

DESERT AND OASIS
I´ve been thinking about it for a long while and no conclusions, therefore I need to keep on going deeper into the depths of my soul.
Meanwhile, I doubled down on my quest to become a permanent member of a tiny dynasty called The Intended. It’s a long shot, but many before me made it. I don’t intend to fail, but as so often happens, I might have to do it all over again.
Good night!
GLOBALIZATION BUT THE GLOBE
The steaks are high, not as high as the dividends. The competition is fierce, as fierce as in a war; the power men are sinister, and the prospects are gloomy; the monopolies are very profitable, so much so they are losing… their mind; and the people are too busy, so busy staring at the glaring: and the people are too busy, so busy scrambling something to eat; the cold war is back hotter than before, but no one knows it will boil over; the possibility of losing freedom and democracy isn’t a study case, anymore, when people are willing to forgo it for the lack of will and courage to stand up for their ‘own’ children; in the end, progress has, finally, outpaced fertility and humanity: there’s only hope… but coming from dope. (Not for me, thanks!)

WARPATHY
There’s no inequality amongst equals! Usually, it’s more iniquity. And they adore trendy expensive fashion; a bit like war clothing this days:
Usually, old and vain men (the order isn’t important) and with families to take care of -though it don’t bother them a thing other’s families. A contradiction? Yes, they know and foster it, and still vain, old, men and with families.
Men shouldn’t torture men, nor women, nor democracy; not to impair greatly children’s future, let alone their miserable present. The past is just a lesson (though some like to flourish it, or make up….): I still remember most lessons from the past, even the distant one.

LIKE CHILDREN
Like children, many adults (too many) need to be taken care of!

DEAR WORLD,
First of all i am sorry for the way we have been mistreating you for so long. I deeply am!
Now, today, it still happens and I can’t find any excuses no more.
Why are still people treating you so bad, with such evil and so many deaths? Why? Other than sheer lack of empathy, of care for each other, for the children and for the future. But nothing seems to deter some people from doing harm rather than good. (And they have families, too!)

BOARD OF PEACE ISN’T BROAD (OF) PEACE
(Though…)
I’ve never seen anything like it.
I could not even imagine it, though I’m creative enough!
P.S, some people (mainly men, not manly) are just beyond…
THE PERCEPTION (IS OFF)
That it is possible we all are discovering it the hard way. That it is selfish and damaging, too. That they don’t care we all can see it clearly. But that there are, among us, believers that still believe -or pretend to- it’s baffling. Or else, their loneliness is so profound they hold on to it like dear life.
How did we get here? Well, most probably it’s the cycle of things!
Once upon a time it happens, it hurts, it destroys and, hopefully, it will get better again; for a while.

AI! THE NEW FRONTIER
Artificially intelligent is a friend o’mine, stacking castle upon castle to reach the moon, and I don’t think it will be anytime soon. He’s so clever they even call him Johnny Cleverest.
Besides that, what can we expect?
Computers motorized, called computerized, and a hip at the moment because they gonna change every landscape; so much so we will not have a chance to escape. But rather than a prison they promise us a bonanza: ‘work no more, leisure 4ever and, together, we will be single without the mingle. Don’t you worry, artificial evolution is the new kid in the world; it will evolve by itself and… me and yourself will become dinosaurs. This period will be known as the ‘Menosaurs’ eXit’.

CONSEQUENTIAL HARM
That’s what I call to someone’s harm before their’s death!
P.S. how can we teach kids good manners and behaviour?
