				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some days you just pine for the past &#8212; some experience you never experienced even.  Just a general feeling for a particular time.  Or just a tangential reference to something I don&#8217;t even understand.</p>
<p>Thinking back to a place I used to lived where life is great.  OK I admit it things were wonderful sometimes in that country, but just hearing some music in a language of that country brings me back to the wholesome innocence of those people.  Myself included. Which brings me to an idea I&#8217;ve been tossing around about the media.  A large percentage of religious people in the US who believe in the bible</p>
<p>You ever notice people say the world is getting worse?  Well I say the media is getting worse, and there is too much of it.  You can constantly view some apocalyptic videos around the world 24 hours a day if you want.  How do you think the world will look if all you view is disaster news backing up your theory that the end is coming soon?</p>
<p>Meanwhile there may be nothing going on out your window.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got to tell you about a mess I&#8217;m in.  See I planned to write a book which, as a part of the story, is about a murderer who documents his plans for murder, then sends these plans to the police blackmailing them into publishing the plans as a book thus becoming a writer through some seriously risque gorilla marketing.  Isn&#8217;t that all it takes nowadays?</p>
<p>The deal is this.  The cops have to publish the plans or else the plans are carried out.  That is one angle anyway.  It could be more intense perhaps if the plans were carried out in secret and then the book arrives to the police.  The murderer tells them he will turn himself in if they publish the book.</p>
<p>The entire time this idea revolved around the desire to take crime fiction to a new level where it spills into the real world.  The book becomes a part of a crime.  Now anything that gets escape velocity on the web, eventually is very difficult to censor.</p>
<p>Of course, I&#8217;m just writing about the idea, not actually doing it because who would be crazy enough to do that?  The trick is to make it seem believable that maybe the book really was the writing of some murderer who blackmailed the cops into publishing his work to prevent future murders.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Part of the fun of writing a story like this, for anyone interested in stealing my idea, you&#8217;d have to play act as if planning murderers.  Since you&#8217;re crazy who cares who they are?  They could be your own family for all it matters.  Those type of murderers are usually disturbing senseless enough to sell books.</p>
<p>So you tell the cops and the world your plan to hop in a car and travel to various locations in your home country, hunting down all those who wronged you in the past.  Each person gets a special revenge.  For example, the first victim lives in a mountainos area where there house is remote.  But you don&#8217;t know for sure they live there, so you go to his work and stalk him awhile.  It isn&#8217;t hard to get ahold of a hunting rifle in on scenario, or a taser in another.  If using a taser, you show up at their door dressed well, with a briefcase.  They open the door and are shocked to see you.  You&#8217;ve not talked for a awhile over a money argument.  You pretend you want to pay the money you owe.  They bring you in to the dining room.  You open the briefcase with the money supposedly in there.  Even better if you really have about ten grand or so.   Just when they think they are getting money from you in payment for the debt you never really believed you owed to him in the first place, you bust out the taser and floor them.  Pull out the handcuffs for the wrists and feet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Bust out the LSD and force them to take the LSD.  Now begin the experiments in torture.  Not very pretty I know but you don&#8217;t know the pain this man has caused.  So use your imagination on the type of tortures you could pursue while your victim in on waaaay too much acid.  You could model your work after the CIA.  Put them in a pitch dark room for weeks on acid playing the recording &#8216;your mother hates you&#8217;.  Whatever it takes.  It is for the betterment of human kind in the end.</p>
<p>you might think I&#8217;m disturbed writing these things but I&#8217;m not.  I am actually quite compassionate to all people including the worst of the worst.  It is my special talent.  To love the worst of the worst.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m partially kidding by the way.  Who would say such things?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s move onto the next victim.  This is a depraved and rare treat for the sickest pervert out there.  If you aren&#8217;t a sick mind, then don&#8217;t read on and don&#8217;t blame me for your inability to deal with fantasy.</p>
<p>So the murder decides one of his plans will include kidnapping a young girl who he will use for an elaborate ritual sacrice. Before you think &#8216;Satanism&#8217; consider the details of the ritual.  In some schools of ceremonial magick, concentration on a sigil during some climactic event, can open up a possibility of affecting reality in line with your will.</p>
<p>The more dramatic the ritual, the more significant and powerful the moment of internalizing the sigil and making it&#8217;s meaning manifest in the real world. So what better approach than to break multiple taboos?  To start the young girl should be a relative.  Consider how this delicate creature must be of the reactive type who whines about the littlest thing.  This will assure their screams of death occur at the moment of your climax.</p>
<p>Sick I know, but anyone who dares to do a ritual like this involving perhaps a sixteen year old relative you bind, and ritually fuck from behind while yanking there hair back , gazing at the sigil you etched into her flesh that is bleeding now, for you to lap up as you fuck her ass.</p>
<p>Lap that bloody slit as you fuck her ass and yank her hair.  Listen to her screams as you fuck her harder, pushing into her ass, yanking her hair, and lapping up the blood from the cuts in her back.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;d like to shed some darkness on the new Star Trek Movie.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t usually drink, but my viewing of Into Darkness started two hours later than planned so I decided to past the time with a carafe of Japanese Rice Wine, a pint of Sapporo, a pint of some hippy home brew, and, finally, a shot of southern comfort.</p>
<p>I find a few drinks helps me think more clearly and feel more openly movies I view.  The pot I smoked before driving 30 minutes to the theater helped as well.  By the time I got in there I was ready for Star Tours at Disneyland I assure you.</p>
<p>You can&#8217;t discount the inner geek child pleading to see movies like Into Darkness based on ads, and ignorance of the history of Star Trek.  JJ Abrams started this young man&#8217;s interest in Star Trek.</p>
<p>I hate to tell you Trekkies, but the movie purportedly tells the early history of one of our favorite star trek villans who I cannot reveal to you.  There are alot of them so don&#8217;t think you know.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to segueway for a moment to discuss a phenomenon I&#8217;ve noticed when smoking or eating alot of pot.  I call the experience &#8216;The I Love Yous&#8217;.  After taking a bit too much pot, the stoner begins to feel like the pot is too strong.  This means you&#8217;re feeling out of control and worrying about your mortality.  This fear of mortality leads to a regression into  childhood religious rituals (if you had a religious background that is), or at least some sort-of semi-recent spiritual interest.  One feels afraid of their death due to a nervous anxiety attack, a panic attack.  This feeling leads to a need to &#8216;fix&#8217; the problem out of desperation as it were.</p>
<p>In some cases, the pot head who smoked too much seeks to focus on helping others instead of worrying about the self&#8211;which may be perishing anyway.</p>
<p>In my case, the nearest person who I can help is my girlfried.  So I begin to treat her in a way that I imagine is how she wants to be treated.  But it is deeper than that even.  Many of our human problems come from disconnection from one another emotionally and mentally.  &#8216;TILY&#8217; helps the, for lack of a better word, &#8216;victim&#8217;, convert nervous energy into love for another.  The fear of self-harm turns into the pursuit of pleasing a loved one.  But because of the almost desperate nature of this effect, it becomes apparent in time that the feeling is a fleeting, drug-induced reaction.  Beware though this can lead to marriages, engagements, and the desire for a child.</p>
<p>Or it can lead to prayer to whatever you think is above, for mercy or for strength or the ability to convert your terror into love and compassion for all human kind.<br />
For when the world is falling apart, the only thing that will matter is love and compassion for your fellow human being &#8212; for all beings ideally.</p>
<p>But once the effect fades, you come back to a more stable reality and wonder &#8216;what the hell was that all about&#8217;?</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You ever get the feeling the day is full of so much light, visibly crisp green mountains, and an the knowledge that your time in life is limited.</p>
<p>Limited time in life is always the real clencher.  Some view this idea as morbid, depressing, or &#8216;negative&#8217;.  In some ways it is, but that is how things are to some degree.  Looking at the greenery along the road, and the work put into building steps, roads, buildings, gardens &#8212; the whole gamut.  Think of how people spent their lives building civilization as we know it.</p>
<p>They didn&#8217;t waste time but I wonder if they did what they truly desired in life.  That is another clencher.   Sure we can do work that provides security, safety, regularity, peace of mind even if it does seem like you&#8217;re getting paid to sit through an adult version of detention til the day you die.</p>
<p>I remember rewriting all the commonly misspelled words in the English language thousands of times.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t recall getting along so poorly with humanity back in high school though.  I guess one doesn&#8217;t think too much about discontent, until you can&#8217;t ignore it anymore that is.</p>
<p>Still, one must remember all the good in life from time to time.  The beauty, peace, tranquillity, the awe that anything exists at all.</p>
<p>Sure life is grating, brutal, and soul-sucking from time to time.  I mean don&#8217;t we all get so frustrated from time to time that we just hate life for a brief moment?</p>
<p>Take work the other day.  I spend two hours moving things from one place to another while getting micromanaged on the lamest shit that anyone can figure out.  But no this guy who I work with decides to just micromanage shit like unplugging a cable.  I tolerated it for awhile treating him like he was a stress case.  Finally though after waiting around for the arrival of a ride to move stuff, then carrying it all up stairs, and set back up.  Then I walk back, leave the car so he can get back easier.  The final straw is when  I go back a second time by car to pick up more crap, bring it back, carry it up.  After that he starts coming up with more shit.  Tell this person this, go do this.  He tells me to multitask.  That is when I get fed up.  I tell him in a loud voice.  NO!  Why don&#8217;t YOU multitask?  I get more shite come back up stairs.  Then say I&#8217;m leaving.  I say &#8216;WHERE IS THE KEY?&#8217;</p>
<p>Its in the car</p>
<p>ARE YOU SURE?  I need to check because you&#8217;re always losing keys.  Then someone wants to find him so I tell him he&#8217;s there, the MAAHSTAH.</p>
<p>Then when leaving I just say &#8230;.BS.  MAASTAH OF BS.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t worry my dear sensitive souls. This is nothing but annoyance which I&#8217;m soon over.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The mechanical tongue is back to torment you. You may decide to stop reading right there, but that is a mistake, because soon I&#8217;ll have you in my grip.<br />
But til then, a few mundane details of everyday life here in the country. People like to hear about the country, especially when the live in a city. The hardest thing to get used to moving from a city to the country, is the quiet and dark at night.<br />
In the city the noise is non-stop. You get used to it, don&#8217;t even notice it is there. Humans are indeed adaptable are they not?<br />
But the essence of the contrast between country and city, is the vibrating concrete with the subways running beneath, storm drains, heat reflecting off steel in the summer. That part was supposed to set a kind of mood. I hope you noticed. But I digress as always. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I love the country. And I am used to the quiet darkness. Got over the paranoic theater of a haunted house. No lights turning on by themselves, no flies scambling across glass as deliverers of its will. I laughed about this story with her. Yes coming in out of the earth, some spirit or ghost of some sort that might want us out. Such silly roleplaying but Cthulhu needs slaves. That could be a meme you know. Like an army recruitment poster. &#8216;Cthulhu Needs Slaves&#8217;. I have to admit watching Evil Dead II last night did not turn me onto HP Lovecraft. HP Lovecraft is all about leaving alot to your imagination but the movies spell it all out for you a bit too much. And the movies are gross. Somehow my imagination is less graphic than the movies. I like that about myself.</p>
<p>It hurts how much society expects of a person these days. All for money. Bio survival anxiety abatement tokens as Robert Anton Wilson once called them.<br />
I&#8217;m turning into an angry person. What can I do? Sometimes anger is a natural reaction to a particular problem of the mind. Besides, anger and humor are lovers. Don&#8217;t you laugh at campy movies because they mock anger with bizarre melodramas of the endpoint of psychotic rage. Why not make it a source of creativity? Just get audition for a play with a role to let you get out all those negative emotions in a healthy way.<br />
Why write unless it is something that shakes up the world a little? I mean what have I got to lose, as rotten a person I may be. Rotten by some arbitrary standard I made up for myself which is not too easy to shake loose. I don&#8217;t have to though because it makes more sense to maintain some semblance of structure in life. Been there. Done that. Shaken it all off.<br />
I hear you now saying how too much structure will hinder creativity. You know this from personal experience perhaps?</p>
<p>Never trust personal experience unless you are the person who experienced it. DUH!</p>
<p>That was my deep thought for the day just now. I hope you appreciated it. It was plopped out like a egg from a golden chicken with the words &#8216;Faust&#8217; enscribed upon its chest. The chicken leaves the egg and moves back to the yard. You wander about thinking if maybe you are hallucinating. There are no golden chickens.</p>
<p>Let it rest. So much happened in this lifetime, that it takes a whole lifetime just to write about it. Why spend my life writing about the thing I am supposed to be living?</p>
<p>Maybe that is one reason some choose to stop writing for good.<br />
At the same time some stick with it and deserver respect assuming what they say makes sense to you.</p>
<p>In closing, I leave this moment to a computer upgrade.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Memories of dubiously prescient dreams<br />
Hornets cobras chlorinated water<br />
Cobras cobras in stagnant water<br />
Lonely drunk in a crowd in a tomb<br />
Little explosions on the horizon in the womb<br />
Emotionless face of the native American<br />
Sever my arm though I have no quarrel with them<br />
It was due to splitting in two<br />
Antagonized father and son<br />
Near the ocean.</p>
<p>Shoo shoo I say to the hornets<br />
Imaginary hornets conjured by a cop<br />
In a go-cart wrapped in table cloth<br />
Covers my drunk  criminal head<br />
At this resort a blue hunchback bled<br />
Awkward and limping through the explosions<br />
Adapting and training in hostile sands</p>
<p>Who are the new Gods of America?<br />
They await your worship<br />
They sustain your dreams<br />
Marijuana seed in the bathroom lay<br />
Bisexual security guard teaching Japanese in Malay<br />
Entering screens flying near the out of the cave<br />
Under starlight police hornets slaves<br />
The dark night at the console<br />
Too busy for my song<br />
About the identity of a wife who was wronged<br />
Patio of a colored gaseous cloud<br />
Tattoos of death burnt flesh of the proud<br />
Burnt flesh stolen from graphic novels<br />
Troubling foreigners with tales of H.S.Thompson<br />
Warning there are plagues come from the mouth of the tomb<br />
Prescient dedication to those in jail</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>lick away the ear wax<br />
with this mechanical tongue<br />
and take flight<br />
in the mind<br />
with this example</p>
<p>in the beginning<br />
hops and passion flower<br />
so start at the end<br />
and sing<br />
contradict<br />
complain<br />
about every offender personality<br />
that bleeds like a head wound<br />
until you wind down Friday morning<br />
whine with the passion of a survival instinct<br />
fight and screech in the court<br />
about how life is short</p>
<p>I’m by your side<br />
I cover up<br />
your cosmic<br />
dirty plate<br />
my adventurous son<br />
drives to work<br />
as he spouts gallows humor<br />
with the thought<br />
you can’t beat the past</p>
<p>but time is like<br />
the flesh wounds of<br />
reckless expectation<br />
you can smell time<br />
like an infectious gash<br />
yet it is a part of All<br />
during the course<br />
of our future-romance<br />
oh well<br />
up her ass and cunt<br />
in front<br />
that’s how to handle<br />
the election of Being<br />
you groan<br />
and to think Being<br />
is banned</p>
<p>but such phraseology bolsters<br />
the political stance<br />
of the son<br />
from a<br />
pink apartment<br />
in Chicago<br />
and hankies satisfy<br />
when a straight guy<br />
gets it<br />
when he gets it<br />
like a song of water falls<br />
upon<br />
splinters of heaving<br />
arctic ice<br />
on troubled<br />
sweaty skin</p>
<p>sail in search of confirmation<br />
but your ships lay waste<br />
to the world<br />
you may find the new world<br />
at the end of the journey<br />
so celebrate<br />
for we all leave celebrations<br />
slightly sad</p>
<p>hey you powerful man<br />
give yourself up<br />
to the continuum<br />
and gain all power<br />
you may grow thinner<br />
or die fatter<br />
but you do not need<br />
food or water<br />
now<br />
unless some phrases<br />
are illegal<br />
some symbols too expansive<br />
for the schedule<br />
like waterfalls<br />
this poem-throne of fluff<br />
pon&#8217; which I sit<br />
disqualifies me<br />
from the recitation of<br />
the vast swipe of a moment<br />
yet the moment<br />
incites these words<br />
your insides condensate<br />
yet you’re a part of the One<br />
under<br />
It’s<br />
constant smile<br />
as<br />
It<br />
feeds you<br />
plasma intravenously<br />
along with all the stars<br />
that expand their coronaries<br />
like a prophet in a stupor<br />
and comatose<br />
two nights ago<br />
thanks to a<br />
pool of effective customer service<br />
and the wine<br />
yet at the same time<br />
I openly admit<br />
the symbol of the All<br />
hidden in 3-D V.R.<br />
where I jack-in for peace<br />
while at the same time<br />
convinced of my own Mind</p>
<p>alas and alack<br />
piles of brown<br />
turn inwards<br />
into themselves<br />
while I return<br />
to the old schedule<br />
with pants off<br />
living in an America<br />
of pink lights<br />
and restless words<br />
that revolve around a glass box<br />
and underneath<br />
who knows?</p>
<p>be still O happiness<br />
for a British schoolboy<br />
responds to you<br />
quietly<br />
he evades conventional<br />
outmoded glaucoma<br />
like the Greek monuments that stand<br />
between periods of abstinence<br />
like fine objects<br />
reminders of office supplies<br />
it’s not over<br />
now I dig a grave<br />
and invite an enemy<br />
to a bit of my heart muscle<br />
on a hero for the journey<br />
the object of this earth<br />
is to lie to the institute<br />
but be at peace<br />
and drive<br />
alcohol poisoning<br />
and teriyaki<br />
I was told later<br />
prompts a smile<br />
until the desire for union<br />
shines<br />
and rejuvenates the elections<br />
barely into the ocean of &#8217;86<br />
I find G_d<br />
He is a white rancher<br />
forever great<br />
who treads in black socks<br />
before the Truth<br />
the poem of the air<br />
he throws flowers up there<br />
to float with impulses<br />
that pulse<br />
like belief<br />
like air in the bloodstream<br />
as we sit in misery<br />
on His earth<br />
beneath His Generous Buttocks<br />
of the Ages<br />
for he sees things as they are<br />
after words<br />
and as we write the words<br />
uttered by The Mechanical Tongue<br />
of His own<br />
out-there reality<br />
calm and courageous<br />
along the way<br />
the truth comes forth<br />
bellows<br />
and flaps<br />
with strength<br />
but the Parthenon is superior<br />
studies show<br />
with it&#8217;s air of enigma<br />
beyond even the creator<br />
but here back on earth<br />
I ride the bus<br />
walk in the forest<br />
drive by<br />
as I hear a roar overhead<br />
and think,<br />
does she see as I vomit?<br />
again and again?<br />
at least it wasn’t<br />
on the blessed veranda<br />
that divine dump<br />
but never mind<br />
with confidence<br />
return to acceptance<br />
to ensure survival<br />
lure me in<br />
from the murky hours of 3AM<br />
with its<br />
late staggerings<br />
by the side<br />
of The Great and Meaningless Void<br />
that Hungrily Awaits for No Reason<br />
as I cry from atop the hotels<br />
as a drunk cycles around trailers<br />
as I wonder about the fire<br />
of the present<br />
that burns<br />
out<br />
so what if one shoves<br />
a child<br />
as he visits his proud defender<br />
in a bar<br />
in San Francisco<br />
and onto Fremont<br />
blooming<br />
on the bank<br />
of love-lakes<br />
but the fact is<br />
we deny instincts<br />
that salivate over a fight<br />
and assemble thoughts<br />
together randomly<br />
the cruel fertilization<br />
for the seed-soul of wonder<br />
while the family<br />
implores you pause<br />
before you act<br />
or speak<br />
from within the light<br />
of your own insight<br />
poems of influence<br />
are a muscular system<br />
that thrive<br />
where &#8216;they&#8217; ban the light<br />
so let the specialists protect my rights<br />
as I&#8217;m drunk<br />
on lakes of my best interest<br />
see<br />
the sun set<br />
my joy in red</p>
<p>so I do it all<br />
pursue the wealth<br />
through seasons numerous<br />
become my own experience<br />
once I even work wearing a collar<br />
until the Parthenon spake<br />
thusly<br />
look with your eyes<br />
saw off your hand<br />
if not in tune<br />
with the Higher Truth Beyond<br />
the lamppost<br />
encircled in vines<br />
beside<br />
a young child in San Francisco<br />
I must report<br />
that I set many a trap<br />
for at least ten people<br />
while &#8216;happy&#8217; at a bar<br />
with lectures<br />
you might expect from an officer<br />
who reports<br />
the discovery<br />
of a conspiracy<br />
of a thought-filled insurrection<br />
doubling as disinformation<br />
yet here in Union Square<br />
I cannot bear family<br />
that is how the hangover starts<br />
unconscious<br />
somewhere</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>The Jung-Freaks</b></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Jung-freaks have opinions</p>
<p>Like everyone else</p>
<p>Bu thanks to the concept</p>
<p>‘projections’</p>
<p>Jung-freaks eschew reasons</p>
<p>Especially if your tone is</p>
<p>Too aggressive</p>
<p>Or incisive</p>
<p>Wondering what is</p>
<p>behind their opinions</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>They protect their ego</p>
<p>Through the brilliant</p>
<p>Ability to detect</p>
<p>When one is ‘projecting’</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Since <b>their</b> viewpoints</p>
<p>Do not require explanations</p>
<p>And they’re above reproach</p>
<p>Just because they are</p>
<p>Who they are</p>
<p>And because they believe what they believe</p>
<p>Or since they</p>
<p>Must avoid disagreement</p>
<p>Out of fear</p>
<p>Or depending on their current</p>
<p>Emotional state</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>their only recourse</p>
<p>Is to ‘diagnose’ those who disagree</p>
<p>With the magic phrase</p>
<p>‘You’re projecting’</p>
<p>‘You’re projecting’</p>
<p>Like a doctor diagnosing</p>
<p>Rectal cancer</p>
<p>Or the flu</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>But they are more like</p>
<p>Doctors who</p>
<p>Diagnose a person</p>
<p>With</p>
<p>Alcoholism</p>
<p>When anyone with</p>
<p>A brain knows</p>
<p>That alcoholism is not a disease</p>
<p>It is merely a bad habit</p>
<p>That has gone so far</p>
<p>That the drunk</p>
<p><b>Thinks</b> he can’t control himself</p>
<p>Anymore</p>
<p>And so he can’t</p>
<p>That’s what he’s told himself for years</p>
<p>you are what you think</p>
<p>And he doesn’t think</p>
<p>He just does</p>
<p>What his subconscious program</p>
<p>Dictates</p>
<p>The program he chose</p>
<p>For himself of course</p>
<p>And reinforced over and over</p>
<p>Until the program</p>
<p>Took over</p>
<p>Like a virus</p>
<p>Or spyware</p>
<p>It runs there in the background</p>
<p>Sapping your performance</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>That’s why people</p>
<p>Invented God</p>
<p>God is just a new program</p>
<p>That eventually works</p>
<p>In the background</p>
<p>The more you reinforce the habit</p>
<p>Of using God as a means to an end</p>
<p>It’s much like disassociating</p>
<p>From a poorly written program</p>
<p>Though sometimes admirable</p>
<p>Sign of your own</p>
<p>Personal creativity</p>
<p>And boldness</p>
<p>And replacing it with</p>
<p>A user-friendly</p>
<p>Corporate</p>
<p>Program with little room</p>
<p>For invention</p>
<p>Or innovation.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You pretend that</p>
<p>someone else can</p>
<p>until you eventually</p>
<p>change your habit</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>What they really mean</p>
<p>Is that they feel</p>
<p>Their pet theories</p>
<p>Are threatened</p>
<p>By another’s doubts</p>
<p>They mean</p>
<p>You caught them</p>
<p>Believing things</p>
<p>That they never</p>
<p>Questioned before</p>
<p>You came along</p>
<p>Or they mean</p>
<p>They can’t bear to</p>
<p>Reveal their ignorance</p>
<p>On a subject</p>
<p>That they suppose themselves</p>
<p>An authority on</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Or they mean</p>
<p>They’re scared of</p>
<p>domination</p>
<p>By your</p>
<p>Extensive knowledge</p>
<p>And the confidence it brings</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>They resent the</p>
<p>Insolent presumption</p>
<p>Of one who knows</p>
<p>Thanks to hard work</p>
<p>And study</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Yet regardless of the soundness of</p>
<p>Your logic</p>
<p>Or knowledge</p>
<p>And their impotence</p>
<p>They believe their</p>
<p>Unfounded beliefs</p>
<p>Deserve respect</p>
<p>Just because they hold</p>
<p>Those beliefs</p>
<p>With little understanding</p>
<p>Of why they believe</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So they say</p>
<p>You’re projecting</p>
<p>You’re projecting</p>
<p>And they say it</p>
<p>With a cool smile</p>
<p>their fears and doubts</p>
<p>Allayed</p>
<p>For now their opponent</p>
<p>Is not misinformed</p>
<p>Or illogical</p>
<p>Or ignorant</p>
<p>Now they</p>
<p>Have a psychological ‘condition’</p>
<p>And who better to</p>
<p>Reveal this condition</p>
<p>Than the Jung-freak?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Its how Jung-freaks</p>
<p>Look down on the people</p>
<p>They disagree with</p>
<p>Instead of backing up their views</p>
<p>With reasons</p>
<p>And facts</p>
<p>While the rest of us</p>
<p>Know</p>
<p>you don’t need</p>
<p>to prove you are a better</p>
<p>person than someone else</p>
<p>out of some hidden sense</p>
<p>of personal inferiority</p>
<p>but rather you need</p>
<p>to discover what the truth</p>
<p>is about any given question</p>
<p>because you know</p>
<p>you have the ability to do it</p>
<p>and you have done it before</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Poor ol Jung</p>
<p>His ghost weeps over the</p>
<p>Casual misuse of his</p>
<p>Concept of projection</p>
<p>By so-called</p>
<p>Faux Seekers of self-realization</p>
<p>Who thumb through his books</p>
<p>Like a good beach read</p>
<p>Grasping onto</p>
<p>Any psychological theory</p>
<p>That rids them of the need</p>
<p>To do their homework</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For projection is not a</p>
<p>Tool one uses as a wild card</p>
<p>in a debate</p>
<p>Or an argument</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It is something that happens</p>
<p>Between the analyst and the patient</p>
<p>Which helps both of them</p>
<p>To bring</p>
<p>Subconscious thoughts</p>
<p>And feelings</p>
<p>To the surface</p>
<p>In an atmosphere</p>
<p>of trust</p>
<p>openness</p>
<p>and wisdom</p>
<p>A true analyst uncovers</p>
<p>The projections</p>
<p>That really matter</p>
<p>Over long periods</p>
<p>Of analysis</p>
<p>They take their time</p>
<p>Like a master on</p>
<p>A sculpture</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>They do not use projection</p>
<p>To conceal their own</p>
<p>Failings</p>
<p>Ignorance</p>
<p>And self-doubt</p>
<p>When confronted with</p>
<p>Someone who questions or</p>
<p>Doubts one of their sacred cows</p>
<p>Not at all.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Even worse,</p>
<p>Projection is based on that</p>
<p>Soft science called</p>
<p>Psychology</p>
<p>Yet it’s adheres invoke</p>
<p>Projection</p>
<p>Like it is the law</p>
<p>Electromagnetism</p>
<p>Or the germ theory</p>
<p>While in reality</p>
<p>In the hands of</p>
<p>An armchair psychologist</p>
<p>Who reads Jung casually</p>
<p>Without much rigor</p>
<p>Or focus</p>
<p>It might as well be</p>
<p>A ten year old</p>
<p>Yelling no</p>
<p>No no no no</p>
<p>Or I want what I want</p>
<p>Or a Father who says</p>
<p>It’s true because I say it’s true</p>
<p>Or it’s true because so and so</p>
<p>Said it’s true</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>but instead they say it like this</p>
<p>I think you’re projecting</p>
<p>You’re just projecting</p>
<p>If they are insecure enough</p>
<p>To take everything personally</p>
<p>And to be at a loss</p>
<p>For an explanation</p>
<p>They try to act as if</p>
<p>They are beyond explanations</p>
<p>Beyond answering questions</p>
<p>Beyond stating their case</p>
<p>As if they’ve reached some pinnacle</p>
<p>Which no one can grasp</p>
<p>Or understand</p>
<p>Some revolutionary hunch</p>
<p>Beyond trifling little</p>
<p>Debates and arguments</p>
<p>And the more they try to</p>
<p>Convince you</p>
<p>And themselves</p>
<p>The more obvious the lie</p>
<p>Becomes</p>
<p>And if they act like</p>
<p>Jesus on his way to the cross</p>
<p>The lamb to the slaughter</p>
<p>Never defending themselves</p>
<p>You know they want the truth too</p>
<p>But they’re not willing to</p>
<p>Push themselves to get it</p>
<p>Instead they meekly go along</p>
<p>With whatever you say</p>
<p>Patronizing and condescending</p>
<p>With an air of</p>
<p>Invincibility</p>
<p>And at some point during</p>
<p>The Pop Jung-Freak’s</p>
<p>Faux elevation</p>
<p>Into the netherspere</p>
<p>Of transcendent wisdom</p>
<p>They wait for you to</p>
<p>Become irritated</p>
<p>And bewildered</p>
<p>At their spectacle</p>
<p>Of fraud</p>
<p>Deceit</p>
<p>Delusion</p>
<p>And self-confirmed</p>
<p>Attainment</p>
<p>Of nothing less</p>
<p>Than the emperor’s new clothes</p>
<p>Or the alchemical transformation</p>
<p>Of base metal into gold</p>
<p>While evading the real issue</p>
<p>And then state in their</p>
<p>Ridiculous and maddening way</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Don’t you think you’re projecting?</p>
<p>Don’t you think you’re projecting?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You’re projecting</p>
<p>Instead of stopping to</p>
<p>Reconsider their unfounded</p>
<p>Beliefs</p>
<p>Or stopping to consider</p>
<p>Maybe their opponent has a point</p>
<p>And they should go back to the drawing board</p>
<p>But no</p>
<p>All they can say is</p>
<p>You’re projecting</p>
<p>You’re projecting</p>
<p>And with that</p>
<p>They think they have completely</p>
<p>Gotten to the bottom</p>
<p>Of the real reason</p>
<p>Behind their opponent’s</p>
<p>questions</p>
<p>contradictions</p>
<p>and doubts</p>
<p>and justified annoyance</p>
<p>at unfounded beliefs</p>
