A Nation's Sensations Of Obsession's Oblations

As a Patriot who is a different breed of Moderate, this piece is a Poetic Alliteration attempt to honestly point out the many flaws which our nation, America, does possess and do need changing ...

AUTHOR'S PRELIMINARY NOTE:  I am a Patriot who loves America, but does not love, nor embraces, the many flaws of our nations wrongdoings to peoples within our nation, and to other tinier nations around the world.  I am a Patriot who is accurately aware that America's true beginnings were not those of "Taxation without Representation," but of seeking an independent share's position and rank in Great Britain's monopoly in trade with China in order to purchase Opium (a drug outlawed by the Chinese Government) to be sold and distributed abroad.  The American Revolution was not at all about Tea, but about Opium, Opium that wealthy Colonialists wished to acquire without the tidy profit's tax which Great Britain's monopoly on the Chinese market afforded them.  Like true Mates, Great Britain and America joined together after the Revolution to Tag Team (a far less technologically advanced for that day and time) peace seeking China in instigating a war with China, wherein underdeveloped and under-gunned China was invaded, its land pillaged and raped, and its many great National Treasures of artifacts hauled away as victor's spoils booty, with Great Britain's finest boast of victory's booty being the thieving coercion's acquisition of vanquisher's  unleashed (100 year lease?) control over Hong Kong (author's note footnote 1) -- a period in Chinese history that came to be called The One Hundred Years of Shame.  

Thus, our nation did not have its primal beginnings in any fashion of Glory, whatsoever, but of America's birth and existence beneath the pretext of a fine sounding Declaration of Independence and a United State's Constitution that appealed to and appeased the common man blinded to the reality of America's true birth as a vanquishing drug running nation.  And so it remains to this very modern times day, which includes events just prior to America's entrance into World World II and Japan's unprecedented attack upon Pearl Harbor, an attack fueled by the historical facts of U.S. Diplomats encouraging Japan to invade, conquer, and civilize China, to then turn a duplicitous instigator's position of, after the Diplomatic manipulator's facts, standing against the very invasion which America assisted in bringing about in its feigned supportive role of Japan, and that against the very China who was alleged to be our friend and ally.  America has repeatedly proven itself to be a nation of leaders who are finessed in the artful expertise of two faced traitorous betrayal of its own professed friends and allies, all except, that is, Motherland's Great Britain from whence we came and learned all the evil that greedy, unconscionable, men do. 

In more recent times, America's invasions of tinier and weaker nations, such as Grenada, Afghanistan, and Iraq, also serve as prime, but not pristine, examples of America's insidiously nefarious methodology of vilifying and demonizing other nations in waging of wars of unjustifiable aggression via invasion and occupation of such victimized nations and their citizenry of innocent peoples.  

Think for a moment.  What might it have been that America really and truly sought control of from, and from within, that helpless nation of Afghanistan? ... The answer is another historically blinding poke in the eye: Poppies (author's note footnote 2) from which comes Opium and from which also Heroin is derived and manufacture.  Again, America's ultimate hidden and secretive agenda is acquisition, control, and distribution of DRUGS which the U.S. Government claims to be waging an all out War against.  Poppycock!  

America the Beautiful, my a*s!  Never has a bigger or greater lie been perpetrated upon the peoples of this Earth since that of the gullible masses being fed the mythological fabrications of men that is, and does comprise, The Gospels of the New Testament ...  And I love America, but hate the stench of our nation's overdue need of coming clean to the origins of our own history of behavior's treacherous actions against other nations.  It is time for a change of direction, before there is an America, no more ...

Please do invest the time to read author, James Bradley's books which do reveal facts of history that are totally unknown to most Americans, as well as to much of the World:  Flags of Our Fathers, Flyboys, The China Mirage, The Imperial Cruise, available at Amazon.com: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=james+bradley+books&crid=2ERCDAFVSZBEV&sprefix=James+Bradly+%2Caps%2C185&ref=nb_sb_ss_retrain-deeppltr_1_13

A Nation's Sensations Of Obsession's Oblations

In sizzling vibrations of sensual symbiotic sensations,

of tantalizing tempestuous temptation's tenured terrors,

in morbidly sought after glimpses of saddened wearers,

as singing songs sing sadly of saddest of sad oblations,

voraciously seeking vividly vague values of our nation,

gone grim in ghastly gobs of so gloomily ill gotten gain,

where my right is the right of might ignoring your pain,

caring less for your plight in focusing upon my elation,

my appetite insatiable in its ravenous raven like gorging,

as all that really matters is my right to live ever so free,

you must understand it is all about me, just me, me, me,

ignoring ignorable ignorant idiot idioms gone a whoring,

as nations wear war waging whimsical wanton destruction,

dreary disregard for death dictates a despot media's chatter,

civilians slaughtered slowly daily seeking life find the latter,

all hopes of peaceful lives lie limply lipid in lore disruption,

each life a universe uniquely unlike another now unraveled,

becoming fodder for fonder fields of free food to swallow,

consumed by belligerent bully black holes hungrily hollow,

spirits left to wander winding roads of sadness untraveled,

while dumbly we sit drunkenly in dimly lit homes depressed,

ranting in rages of randomly ridiculous ridicule running fits,

want a better job, bigger boat, newer car, wet bar, bigger tits,

caring less for dumb dopes dying daily, in our self obsessed,

submerged in sultry steaming selfishly cynical surreal reality,

to give not a tinker's damn for a world's doomed desperation,

not giving a slivering sniveling s**t for anyone but our nation,

until one day Karma's Wheel visits upon us our own fatality,

our sins heaped to the heavens come round as sorrow's reality,

the smoke of our destruction becoming incense to the world,

a pleasant scent in their nostrils as our flag no longer unfurls,

as our cries fall upon deaf ears in the midst of all our calamity ...

America the beautiful has become a used up ugly old w***e,

banished from this earth, never seen or heard from anymore ...

1 Hong Kong ceded by China in 1842 to Great Britain — Hong Kong, special administrative region (Pinyin: tebie xingzhengqu; Wade-Giles romanization: t’e-pieh hsing-cheng-ch’ü) of China, located to the east of the Pearl River (Zhu Jiang) estuary on the south coast of China. The region is bordered by Guangdong province to the north and the South China Sea to the east, south, and west. It consists of Hong Kong Island, originally ceded by China to Great Britain in 1842, the southern part of the Kowloon Peninsula and Stonecutters (Ngong Shuen) Island (now joined to the mainland), ceded in 1860, and the New Territories, which include the mainland area lying largely to the north, together with 230 large and small offshore islands—all of which were leased from China for 99 years from 1898 to 1997. The Chinese-British joint declaration signed on December 19, 1984, paved the way for the entire territory to be returned to China, which occurred July 1, 1997. https://www.britannica.com/place/Hong-Kong

In my 63 years on this earth there have only been three years when we were not at war. Eisenhower was right about that industry of war. The defense department needs more money only when there’s someone to fight. So we must have someone to fight all the time. If you think about Afghanistan the last soldiers to fight there weren’t even born when that war started their grandfathers could’ve fought there as well as their fathers multi generational war and we’re no better off now than when we got there 22 years ago. Two big difference is between that war in Vietnam Vietnam everyone was for the most part drafted conscripted. The fight over that war was for people who did not want to be there for poor they’re always the one to fight the war Rich mans poor man’s fight. But since nobody was drafted for the Afghanistan war we don’t have that complaint however the United States is set up to the point that the only way a poor kid can get a college education is to learn how to kill in the name of his country to earn the G.I. Bill to pay for his college. And since Biden and I don’t blame him alone but since he changed the laws on bankruptcy you cannot get out from under the high rates charged on these college loans. They will follow you your whole life. You can’t get out of credit card bills. But if you’re a corporation you can get out of anything

Thanks Tate for you valued and resourceful thoughts of input ...
As a different breed of Moderate, I often find myself criticized or attacked by both Conservatives and Liberals, as well as Republicans and Democrats ... Strangely it seems that noone is anylonger aware that Conservatives and Liberals do consist as members of both the Republican and Democratic Parties ... So I speak out about our nation's less than pristine and purely misconeptual history that has been misconstrued in the teaching of lies to us all, and I reap the flack that comes with that daring to step out and say the f*****g truth ... Yet, I am against destroying our past, as unsavory as it has been, and am against tearing down statues and historical markers that one time stood for causes and ways of thinking that we now have come to realize are damn sure wrong, for those very negative historical landmarks exist as valuable road signs indicating where we, as American, should never wish to return to ever again ... Destroying history will never insure our nation of a better future, but destroying the past does represent denial and refusal to accept our nation's past wrongs and does insure that our nation has no foundation of where we have been and wish to be no more, ever again, as per the wise words of Robert Anson Heinlein: “A generation which ignores history has no past — and no future.”

As one who values our Republic as per that which I was taught, in reassessing just how accurate that teaching really and truly was, I stand as one who is not an outright Socialist nor a Communist ... Yet, having been taught that we live in the land of the brave and the home of the free, I do often wonder why it is, why it was, that in the heart of the land of Freedom and Liberty, per se, that it was deemed wrong, illegally so and punishably by prison time, to be found out to believe in and hold to Communist or Socialist ideological beliefs and viewpoints as to a possible bettering of the future of our nation and people, even if I, personally, did not, and chose not, support such a position of ideological belief myself as a co-American citizen just as were they? ... We believe that we have Religous Freedom ... Why do we not have Ideological Freedom? ... Why do we not have Political Freedom? ... Why do we not have Freedom that can truly be discerned and displayed and experienced as Freedom's Liberty at all, whatsoever, and that while living within that land which has defined its justified existence by declaration of itself as the land of the brave and the home of the free? ... I value bridled and corralled element of Capitalism that do allow for the little man's opportunity of bettering himself via Free Enterprise, but I do detest Fascism's Corporationalism that has turned America (as it did Nazi Germany) into The American War Machine ... If Capitalism is the outright and indisputable better and best economic ideological means of establishing successful nations of happy peace loving peoples, then, why do we fear Socialism and Communism so much, if they truly have nothing to offer to the world of Humanity simply all wishing for and seeking all the same things that all Human Beings are seeking for, and deserve? ... If we can hybridize animals and plants, why can we not then to the same with ideologies in purging the evils from each popular in order to preserve that finer attributes that each ideology has to offer for the good of all Mankind? ... Why? ... Because greedy a*s men in power the world over, as those Elite (any Billionaire is an Elite) that do exist as the Conservative Donald Trumps and the accused Liberal Communist George Soros's of this world where they appear on the surfice to be different, but their bank accounts scream to the Heavens that they are no different, but in their methodology of gleaning profits and attaining support of their prodigy's posterity after them ... Trump, Putin, and Soros are all three simple examples of the Elite standing before us sight unseen, and it is they who wish not to see things change for the true betterment of Humanity as all Mankind ...

This is what poetry is all about. This could have easily been written in the turbulent 60's when a nation awakened to the hard truths about itself. Where poets sang about our failures and the lies we were told about our faux grandeur as the world's beacon of hope. A Brown University study found:“Between 1492 and 1880, between 2 and 5.5 million Native Americans were enslaved in the Americas in addition to 12.5 million African slaves.” These truths glossed over or hidden in our history books, and now a days perniciously being erased. Funny thing about the truth; it eventually comes to light no matter how hard some may try to hide it. Thank you for sharing your truthful piece of poetry.
