Metal Assemblage #3: Metallica Song Titles

February 8, 2011

Shoot me, Judas! I
am disposable, leper-
scarred by the Devil’s

messiah eye, no
escape from the cyanide
fire. The whiplash kiss

of the Slither Prince—
an invisible lyric
calls to me, creeping

within like black ice.
God is a frayed phantom, failed
anesthesia, king

of the wasting fade,
lord of remorse. I roam my
nightmare memory,

bleeding hands pull the
remains of the day through the
dirty redemption

that is never death.
Trapped in the sanity of
suicide sorrows,

the blackened windows
of puppet sleep purify
nothing. Misery!

The apocalypse
monster never comes . . . There is
no cure for this life.

Marshall McLuhan

Politics is the
cave art of the modern world . . .
Magic uselessness

***************

Advertising is
a numbing blow from which we
never recover

***************

Education is
public manipulation
as entertainment

***************

I wouldn’t have seen
it if I hadn’t believed
in television

***************

The medium is
the spaceship . . . The message is
immortality

***************

Affluence creates
insatiable appetite
and very poor art

***************

Processed goods, packaged
entertainment, canned music . . .
We need war fever

***************

The sex organs of
the corporate machine will
fecundate like bees

***************

Art is whatever
your senses have been programmed
to think it is not

***************

Your nervous system
needs protection from man-made
consumer circuits

Metal Assemblage #1: Black Sabbath Song Titles

January 27, 2011

Funeral of an
embryo God, sweet haunting
forever of the

spiral grave. Step up
to the electric void, dream
behind the wall of

neon confusion.
Doom wears iron boots. The Dark
Priest, architect of

Valhalla, evil
cloaked in the seventh sun, wheels
into the dance of

insanity, a
paranoid war orchid of
solitude buried

under a lost cross.
Headless wasps shining in black
sunrise, born snowblind

in the thorns of an
eternal Eden, the night
dying for the sins

of the forbidden.
Kiss the illusion writ by
the warrior who

kills for the thrill of
the wizard sphinx, sleeping when
deathshock comes to the

guardian of the
universe. Vision of the
cradle of Odin’s

daughter, a bloody
gypsy finger of warning.
Nightmare of Stonehenge,

the Cardinal close
to the angel’s rusty chains.
Girl-dirty moving

parts, angry, scarlet,
the hot-machine deception
immaculate, Lord.

Cornucopia
love dagger, voodoo heart zone,
falling over and

over into the
wishing hole. Glory star gone . . .
Father Time zero.

The Bop Apocalypse, Foretold in Sun Ra LP Titles

January 26, 2011

The futuristic
future calling for purple
satellite magic.

Outer space pathways
incorporated in rock-
stop tomorrow worlds.

Angels play in the
spaceways to Plutonia
on dream monorails.

Medicine jazz for
the mythic city where noise
of freedom meets night.

Joyful melodies
on the road to Jupiter . . .
Nile moon lullaby.

Song of the second
Earth . . . Nubian cosmos and
Sirius respect.

Strange visions of the
interplanetary ark
in the blue somewhere.

Heliocentric
universe cast in antique
media shadows.

Astro demons of
Atlantis united in
celestial nightmare.

Comet war . . . a black
rocket of discipline and
the cage of sunset.

Nuclear Janus . . .
dark equation after the
end of cosmic time.

Visitation of
the creator . . . the delight
of chaos . . . nothing.

Biometric Mind

Strategic tools will
manage intelligence and
safeguard collection

creep. Information
priorities will provide
dissemination

of relevant text
compendia. Updates and
key field assessments:

Burkina Faso
telephone directories
are compliant with

disease taxation
issues and vice video
data trafficking.

Armed fax tactics in
North Korea subvert all
territorial

boundaries. Frequent
flyer account numbers from
Ethiopia

require deployment
of Reliberation Force
to assist war crimes

and systematic
human rights abuses. E-
mail listings in France

reflect the results
of the misuse of famine.
Sudanese prepaid

calling cards are a
roadmap of corruption and
piracy. Very

small apertures are
maintained; food encryption is
standard protocol.

Religion is a
firewall; allocate upgrades
to protect systems.

The Arms Posture Zone

Irresponsible
technology is very
aggressive. Restraint

is a big picture
with a small budget and a
negative quid pro

quo. Disarmament
is hard work, but national
security is

harder work; peaceful
negotiations can fall
apart like Egypt.

Nuclear testing
procedures, even when they’re
presented clearly,

have about as much
legitimacy as a
Russian civil rights

agenda. Fissile
material is better
public relations

than all the rice in
China. Contentious issues!
Civil discussions

are not possible.
Nonproliferation is
a good story but

the simple fact is
counter-proliferation
is a better one.

Please stockpile hatred.
Moral authority has
tampered with mankind.

Reining in red ink
is tangible; reining in
Pakistan is not.

Human Reluctance

Protection is the
situation. Expand the
engagement with drug

envoys. Sudanese
operational failure
is a strategic

narcotics land mine.
Darfur warlords directed
to combat whistle

blowers. Locally-
hired rebel groups will secure
chemical weapons

mandates. (Geneva
Convention rules reduction.)
Tuberculosis

will proliferate.
Malaria and smallpox
are priorities.

Perceived health crises
and persistent pollutants
render assistance.

Nuclear vaccines,
counterfeit medications,
reproductive fraud

and the corruption
of women and children are
not rights abuses.

Introduce stocks of
infectious bio-data.
Helicopters and

ground troops are a peace-
keeping waste. Men will be an
endangered species.

Mugabe Carrot

Feelers about deal
that involves departure. The
writing on the wall,

is willing to step
down, take shady retirement
package, a way out

of disaster. Is
focused on forging graceful
exit, national

interest, ease out,
dignified way that preserves
legacy. Willing

to agree to go
if sufficient resources
and amnesty are

offered in Chile
or Argentina. We must
overcome mistrust

of key white business
sector or Lever Brothers
board will undermine.

Incentive: silver
“redistribution” plan and
Libyan payoff,

back-channel funds from
British and Americans.
Clock is ticking on

reelection and
ability to govern.
Zimbabwe trainwreck

not acceptable
scenario, genuine
damage consensus.

Sweeten offer and
provide real safehaven.
No opposition.

Faith-Mind Sutra

December 24, 2010

How good is easy?
The environment of love
and hate does exist,

clear and detailed, but
the minimum value is
ignored, limiting

Heaven and Earth. Do
you want to see the truth or
see things are preserved?

Set up your pet peeves.
Heart disease is a deep sense
of things, rest assured,

the theme installed. This
path is a large space, complete,
deficiency and

excess. Of course, we
will accept or reject the
heart of what is, both

external and fresh,
feeling inside or even
empty, just right with

God, not a valid
user. Activities try
to prevent very

hard activity,
a different God pole in
God, never knowing.

No human life is
passive activity and
failure, reference

rejected in the
denial of fact. To claim
emptiness is the

actual error.
Discussions are missing the
truth. Your horse doesn’t

think! What is unknown
to you will be back to root
in pursuit of her.

Internal moments
of truth are an addition
to the appearance

of emptiness. Why
change our ignorance of the
world-space? No searching

for the truth. Take care
of your double stops. Do not
seriously track

these activities.
This is the reasonable
nature of the soul

lost in a storm. All,
however, from that which is
not connected is

the spirit still on
the road. What in the world can
feel? You no longer

can interfere with
the ability not to.
It’s been deleted.

Delete the comments,
think vanishing objects, non-
discrimination.

If you lose your mind,
objects may be lost. In my
opinion, the mind

is an object. The
mind and objects understand
what is missing from

relationships. Real
uniformity is a
drum, not an empty

can. Distinguish each
in the world, rough and fine. If
bias is a good

way of life, it’s a
limited view, difficult
to make temptation

easier. ‘Higher’
equals evil. Quickly! Can’t
walk! In addition,

many ideas
are deceiving. However
you want to tell me

of your natural
defense when you’re traveling
independently.

It is in fact all
blurry, so check the burden
of your repeated

garbage. Benefits
will come based on the proven
delimiter first.

Methods to explore:
Don’t like the idea of
the world. Totally

agree that it’s bad,
man, inspiration makes you
fatter. But many

people say the law
of difference is going
to happen. Pursuit

of the heart of my
ancestors’ ignorance and
discrimination

is not valid. Just
imagine anxiety,
an enlightening

favorite. Why all
the stupidity? Why dream
of flowers in the

air? Try to think of
ignorance as access and
the loss of evil.

Ignore ideas.
You have to clear the ‘never’
without eyes. Stop all

natural dreams. Keep
in mind that deviation
looks like the one truth.

Understand this is
a challenge. Leave all the barbed
wire for eternal

nature’s endless and
relationless review of
your movement. All that

remains itself does
not exist. Monotheism
does not exist. There

is no description,
there is no law, there is no
final exercise.

Even in the same
spirit as the effort to
prevent egoism,

irresolutions
lack faith in real life. Unique
strokes place restrictions.

Obviously, play
the power of the mind. Here
the idea of

knowledge is perceived
as imagination. There
is no world that in

fact corresponds to
the simple agreement to
mix the truth between

revelations—no
small trouble. Buy this type of
performance, you don’t

need to worry. Fresh
non-duality? Not from
two trust supporters!

Other than language,
you have yesterday. There is
today tomorrow.
