Collapse
I'll be honest- I'm a bit toasted, and this needs a lot of work. Will get back around to this later. It is about a hard working man who tries to live a simple life, believes that the most important works will come from laboring in the land, and who ultimately, having never had faith or much interest in the political world, believes that his most important work, at this point in his life, where he is beyond capable of everything he has ever placed faith in, is to remove that which he feels is evil, by assassination.

THINGS HAVE GOTTEN OUT OF HAND
Poverty of morals
Double standards and profiteering from those with dirty money, hypocrisy and lies in order to get some money.
Ntionality "a menace"
Nationality is insanity because it breeds contempt, and how can we claim what does not belong to us and we do not belong to it but a temporary abode?
JAMAICA 50
I wanted to write something for Jamaica's 50 years of independence celebrations. My pen would not write so I am typing as the thoughs come to me. If I did not do well please forgive me.

'Cleopatra to the Asp'
This is Cleopatra's narrative to the snake that will take her life. She equates Egypt's history and prosperity to the Nile. The Nile Delta is metaphorically compared to her sexuality. She used her sexuality to control Rome's most powerful men. But one is now taking it away from her (Augustus Caesar). She hopes her son will "swim like a fish toward Rome" thus securing control over Rome and restoring Egypt's prestige. But it was not not to be. Augustus slew her child by Julius Caesar, thus Egypt became a Roman province and has never enjoyed it's former power since.
world, yours or mine
The endless battle of religion, A disguise most serve man's need for greed and power. The endless fight of good and evil.
