AIN'T IT THE SHORTEST PRIME ANARCHIST
|
|
WEEKLY COLUMN YOU EVER DID SEE?
|
|
|
|
If you predict anything about Cuomo running for
|
|
Governor, it should be that he will do NOTHING
|
|
in this time that might harm his chances of a
|
|
credible run for POTUS (president of the US) A
|
|
S A P.
|
|
I predicted "cabinet to governor to potus" the
|
|
day he married a Kennedy.

Greetings! Get out of bed, wakeup. School's out,
|
|
but there's still stuff to do. Two extra hours of
|

sleep is all you get.

I'm prime anarchist and this is the zine of the
|
|
week. ATI, Activist Time to Invigorate.

|
Life's Clock
|
|
|
|
Life's clock is wound but once
|
|
and no man hath the power
|
|
to know where the hands
|
|
will stop
|
|
at late or early hour.
|
|
To lose one's wealth is sad, indeed.
|
|
To lose one's health is more.
|
|
To lose one's soul is such a loss,
|
|
that no man can restore.
|
|
Today, only is our own.
|
|
So live, love and toil with a will.
|
|
Place no faith in tommorrow,
|
|
for the clock may soon be still.

Hey Prime,
|
|
In honor of the mayhem still ongoing from
|
|
sElection2000 I think the pen company in your
|
|
homestate. Was it Parker? They're the ones that
|
|
did UNTIED STATES SENATE during the impeachment
|
|
trials. They went out of business when they lost
|
|
the government subcontract, right?
|
|
Well they should be given restart incentive
|
|
cash to bid on pens that really WILL say UNTIED
|
|
STATES SENATE.

What is the sound of one hand clapping?
|
|
- Zen Koan
|
|
|
|
It defies all reason
|
|
one hand clapping
|
|
|
|
the sound of
|
|
a Nazi salute
|
|
(Hitler wasn't the only monster
|
|
to tarnish our history)
|
|
|
|
the sound of
|
|
hate
|
|
realizing our fate
|
|
a father losing his son
|
|
a melody done
|
|
a child huddled in fear
|
|
a mother screaming
|
|
in anguish,
|
|
her baby's face
|
|
blown off
|
|
|
|
there is no destruction of the enemy
|
|
only destruction of ourselves
|
|
|
|
the echo of a race
|
|
the sound of
|
|
once was
|
|
peeling skin color
|
|
religion
|
|
and differences
|
|
drifting away
|
|
out of body
|
|
what is left?
|
|
|
|
only one
|
|
|
|
the sound of
|
|
death
|
|
a person
|
|
alone
|
|
|
|
the sound of
|
|
terror
|
|
the sound of
|
|
injustice
|
|
greed and pride
|
|
|
|
it is silence
|
|
|
|
one hand clapping
|
|
defies all reason
|
|
|
|
the other,
|
|
a clenched fist
|
|
and closed heart
|
|
turning its back
|
|
on humanity.

Which party do *you* belong to?
|
|
A prose-poem
|
|
by
|
|
by Aaron Schlosser
|
|
[reprinted from Indymedia Dot Org because of
|
|
how many laughs it got, and especially its
|
|
high humor.]
|
|
|
|
It was not until I gave this particular post a subject that I was
|
|
eerily reminded of The Party in George Orwell's famous and spine-
|
|
tingling book, "1984". But I digress.
|
|
"I've just joined a wonderful new political party that has been
|
|
around for the past 150 or so years, but has remained almost entirely
|
|
unnoticed by the majority of the American people. I am utterly
|
|
astounded that this political party has been around for so long
|
|
and its agenda has been unknown.
|
|
The reason this party has been around for such a long time without
|
|
fading away is because it is backed by quite a few of the world's
|
|
most prominent activists, and has been for the past century-and-a-
|
|
half. The thing I find most peculiar, however, is that these prominent
|
|
people are very well-known, yet most American people have absolutely
|
|
no idea that they support my party. Without them, my party would never
|
|
be able to campaign in the ferocity that it does, nor would it be able
|
|
to survive.
|
|
The surprising thing about my party is that it has been a major
|
|
player in the American political scene for every presidency since
|
|
as far back as Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln. Since then, it
|
|
has had a key role in the development of the modern political system.
|
|
This astonishes me as few people even know that it exists.
|
|
I vote for my party every chance I get, because the other party is
|
|
bad.
|
|
I am a Democratic-Republican.
|
|
I am for and against the death penalty. I am for and against abortion.
|
|
I am an environmentalist that favours the destruction of the world's most
|
|
valuable ecological resources. I want to raise and lower taxes. I want to
|
|
spend more of less on the military. I am a strong advocate for gay rights
|
|
but I do not believe that gays should have rights. I fight against
|
|
corporations who use sweatshop labour and I wear Nike shoes. I like
|
|
Adidas pants. All my clothes are from Abercrombie & Fitch, those elitist,
|
|
corporate bastards. I am an anti-fascist that votes for my party every
|
|
chance I get. I am the member of a worker's union and I want to expand
|
|
trade to China.
|
|
I am a Democratic-Republican.
|
|
I know that the other party is bad because the leader of my party said
|
|
so. I don't need to make my own choices, my own decisions; I elect people
|
|
to make them for me. I have a moral obligation to act immorally.
|
|
I drive to work every day in my SUV that gets 16 miles to the gallon,
|
|
and I want people do something about global warming. More people should
|
|
use public transportation so that I can drive to work in less traffic.
|
|
I don't have time to think about things, I just vote for my party because
|
|
they care about me and have my best interests in mind. The other party
|
|
wants to destroy everything that I hold dear. Those bastards. They're
|
|
probably Communists, those Nazi bastards.
|
|
I don't bother to learn much about the government or politics, because
|
|
it makes me feel helpless. I just watch the news at night, even though
|
|
the news is heavily subjective in favour of the other party. Radicals
|
|
are really pesky and annoying. Idealists. Who needs them? God forbid
|
|
anyone should think of anything better. Things are as good as they
|
|
could possibly be.
|
|
Cynicism is bad. Only kooks and loons are cynics. I'm cynical of
|
|
cynics. I've got to be skeptical, because they're always playing dirty
|
|
tricks on me. They're out to get me, you know, those cynical, paranoid,
|
|
Communist, Nazis.
|
|
I feel secure. I'm a Democratic-Republican.
|
|
Those radicals are so unrealistic. Welcome to the real world, you idiot!
|
|
The real world is where I buy my Nike shoes and pretend they weren't made
|
|
by little Hun Lee, a fifteen year old Chinese girl that works twelve hours
|
|
a day. That is realistic, you silly extremist.
|
|
There's nothing I can do about it. It's unstoppable. I make it unstoppable."
|
|
The above writing is intended to be thought-provoking, although it may just
|
|
seem like babbling gibberish. Take a closer look at it. You might not need to
|
|
look very far.
|
|
This post is intended to be something to look at and think about. Have fun
|
|
with it.

A "WHAT IF" By Marc Frucht.
|
|
What If You Read "A Letter To Santa but
|
|
hadn't had a ton of prior programming, so
|
|
you had no idea what the heck all the
|
|
"ikonnery" and pictographs (yeah, those
|
|
too) meant.

|
|
|
Dear Bearded White Guy
|
|
I hope everybody at the GIANT CANDYCANE is well
|
|
and the SLED and the YAK is ready for christmas eve.
|
|
My WOMAN says that I am a good SMILY KID. If you have
|
|
CLOCKS to visit my SNOWMAN IN THE YARD I'd like a LITTLE
|
|
GIRL and my brother would like a RIDE. Our MISMATCHED SOCKS
|
|
will be hung by the FIREPLACE. Please bring THE WOMAN a new
|
|
IRON and my MAN would like a new red LAB COAT. In case you
|
|
are hungry when you come to my house I will put A PLAIN
|
|
DONUT and A HUGE CARTON OF MILK on the EDGE OF THE TABLE
|
|
READY TO FALL IF YOU TOUCH IT... Please give my best to
|
|
the BEARDED WHITE LADY and all the KEEBLER FACTORY helpers.
|
|
You can find my MODEL OF A HOUSE because we have a MELTING
|
|
LUMP OF SNOW on the front lawn.
|
|
Merry Christmas from a good child.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We end with a concept as a metaphor: Because
|
|
as always, poetry's "gonna carry us through."
|
|
|
|
As the movement grows, and as the status quo worsens,
|
|
the line between hackers and activists is erased.
