“Independence You are advised clear zone is one minute east. Move! NOW! Extraction provided…
“Fire commences….Radio contact Terminated….
“Even if it Kills Me” we proclaim, boldly. Without ever knowing what it takes to kill. I killed a man once.
[pause]
Or several men
[pause]
while I was in the Armed Services. Several… I dunno… Anything mor’n many is several… Right??
Musta been like that…
Just like that…
Was dawn of the day…
[pause]
Many… I killed several…
[pause]
I think
Cos the way it was done there’s no way it coulda bin a few. Could it now…? I brought in Green Beret and SAS men
Those men...
[pause]
When I realized that they were seeking my life…
to prolong their own. You know? Us ‘n them…?
That kinda thing.
[pause]
I don’t remember… ‘ve you got a smoke?
I recognized their pain and agony. Thanks. A light? It looked much like my own… It is ALLL so clear now…
[pause]
Thanks… like it was only yesterday… you know! Still fresh…
[pause]
What day is it… D’you know….
[pause]
No I mean “really” Dju know wotdayitis? Mano?
[pause]
Dju got no fukkenidea… Right?
Ts’a Last Day…
“Please remember Lieutenant, you are still Under Oath…”
“It’s not a lie… I have peekchurs… Jus lakh yores. Gun camera Peekchurs. Wanna see ‘em?”
I show my pictures… they can match my story…. I will be Captain before you learn to wipe your arse… Dick head!
[pause]
‘Ts Great. Kin I tell you a story? Wanna hear a story? Dju gonna love this…
“Lieutenant, you are reminded that this is a recorded conversation. You are still Under Oath…”
I LAY out gun camera pictures : Series 2…. Whisper “Dju don hav dese pikchurs? Do You?
This is Tete. Remember Tete? Green Beret country? It’s not there any more… cos we took it out. What peekchurs do dju have, mano?
Lets do “Dangerman!”
We have all of this rhetoric about “Us” and “Them”. {my Irish lass}
But now we are out here in a place our mothers never eveN dreamed while she was in the throes of passion. Making love and getting fucked and she felt like heaven and all eternity and she never dreamed in all that passion love and wishing that her son would be out here with a gun in his hands looking for your sons to fill my life so that I may live to honor my mother and the man who lays his life down beneath her feet.
But we forgot that part. Conveniently…
Because we are armed. Prowling around here with night vision turned to
max. Feeling all strong and powerful because we are part of the Moral
Majority. Are we not? Are we not right? The very Moral Majority? Are we
not moral? Creeping about with stealth. Are we not just? And justified in
our quest that We WILL Lay Down The Law or we WILL lay you down if you
transgress the Law since The Bible. Forever and ever are men. Living.
Died. Dead. So we are out here doing our Just Law.
Seeking a target…
There!
Just
quietly…
line it up…aaaand…slowly….
no hurry…

The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Android… the country side is so beautiful, so wide as her legs and clear as her eyes. I wish only to share this with her… Show her this… Sister. Go for a little picnic… a cold chicken, a pine apple, fresh bread… fresh basil, olive oil… for her skin… afterward…

"The Mansions of the Lord"
Words by Randall Wallace
To fallen soldiers let us sing
where no rockets fly nor bullets wing
Our broken brothers let us bring
to the mansions of the Lord
No more bleeding no more fight
No prayers pleading through the night
just divine embrace, eternal light
in the mansions of the Lord
Where no mothers cry and no children weep
We will stand and guard tho the angels sleep
All through the ages safely keep the mansions of the Lord
We have Angels airborne… stay off comm… Stand By.. Watch yore heads
Track on inbounds … zero path… Lock to Trace…. Trace One… Locking…
Air Cav is Go on Outer marker… You look pretty
Independence closing/// locked to Trace One…

Next…
Hooray? For what?
That I married my shiny one
Sing:
The hills are alive with the sound of gunfire
the blast of min n n e s s trig- erred by trip wire
Next…
“Gimme the keys…. I’ll drive”
“Why”?
“Because I can – do not ask again”……
To finger paint is not a sin
I put my middle finger in
your monthly blood is what I win
in MY house now let me spin
Python power straight from Monty
Spread your head and spread the blanket
She’s too free and I’s the patient
Black and white a red and blue
Things that look good on you
Knock on wood we all stay good
Cause we all live in Hollywood
With Dracula and Darla Hood
Unspoken words were understood
Up to my ass in alligators
Let’s get it on with the ‘gator haters
Did what you did - did what you said
What’s the point? Yo! What’s the spread
And if I call for you to stay
Come hit the funk on your way
It’s way out there but I don’t care
Cause this is where I go
It’s way out there but I don’t care
Cause this is what
I want to wear
Feather light but you can’t move this
Farley is an angel and I can prove this
Let’s Sleep weeping willow
Can I get your hand to write on
just a piece of lead to bite on
What am I to fly my kite on
do you want to flash your light on
Take a look its on display - for you –
“Coming down? no not today
Did you meet your fortune teller?
Get it off with no propeller?
Do it up it's always stellar
what a way to finally smell her
Pick it up it's not to strong - for you.
Take a piece and pass it on
Fly away on my Zephyr
I feel it now, more then ever
And in this perfect weather
we'll find a place together
Fly on my wing
Riddlin on liberator
Find a way to be a skater
Rev it up to levitator
Super mainly aviator
Take a look its on display - for you
Coming down no? not today
In the water where in the scent of my emotion
All the world will pass me by
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together
We're gonna live forever
