O ‘TIS OUT OF THE RAIN WE WANT TO DANCE (Unedited, first draft)

Whatever, it’s not Otis Elevator. It’s the only Otis. [Pause.] Redding realm.

O ’tis a hard bargain you drive, America.

Things are very fucked up. We need some SOUL in our foreign policy. Do that and you’ll see how quickly shit changes domestically. With health care, employment, housing, education, etc. Overnight. You just tweak the spine of our Pentagon-centered economy, and you’ll see how fast good stuff starts popping.

I’ve had it with people complaining about welfare mother ripoffs when ALL the welfare moms in our history couldn’t — if they had TRIED 24×8 — have depleted our resources to the tune of what gangster corporations feeding off of our public trough (via the military alone) play out DAILY. I’ve really had it with all the shit thrown at our incarcerated, as if THEY are what we have to fear. We don’t have to fear them any more than we have to fear the constantly changing made-up villains abroad coming onto our shores because they’re (supposedly) “envious of our way of life” or dead set on annihilating us (for no good reason). They couldn’t do nearly as much damage collectively in a lifetime — not remotely as much — as what gangster politicians and corporate bigwigs bring down in a day. A single fucking day. Routinely, without breaking a sweat, or losing sleep. [Slight pause.] I’ve had it up to HERE with mothers losing their precious children because gangsters can make a buck whilst they shuck the American public. I’m not fucking stupid. And this isn’t just my OPINION. But all soulless bastards should check out Doner’s great video before engaging me in a rebuttal of the above. [Pause.] Nothing’s going to change that kind of ongoing abomination except that we inject SOUL into our politics. And if you think that that LOSS, that irreparable damage doesn’t do you in in your gated community here — and we ALL living in gated communities here when compared to THAT! — you are totally out of touch with the cracks on the dance floor.

Billy said to me, “Yes, when you have a vision….” I don’t have to finish that. I have a very clear picture in front of me 24×8. Time to share it with you. Time to dance in solidarity with you.

With sensuality, music and comedy in the forefront.

“Third parties,” typically, confront the gratuitous violence of career politicians with violence of sorts of their own kind. Y’know, they get on the stump and they wrestle down their opponent’s take of things, and impose their own. So and so is this and that. That kind of ineffective crap.

Only 39% of the California electorate showed up last time ’round for the gubernatorial hoedown. Some of those people will come on board with us, but we don’t need any of them if they insist upon compounding ignorance with ignorance. If they insist upon holding onto obsolete approaches for change you CANNOT believe in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGta4WpMjR4

Me and Sylvie www.sosylvie.typepad.com www.frenchpaintbox.com almost named our Marcello Otis. Partly because of lots of the stuff in the links at http://oxtogrind.org/archive/551.

I’m interested in getting us out of the rain.

I humbly request a rendezvous with Billy and some of his band members. From both bands. Them and Anna and some of her colleagues. And some of their (other) friends and loved ones. A meeting in confidence. An historic gathering. As per their earliest convenience. Meaning ASAP. Yesterday.

There is a real sense in which I will not let certain things be.

[Pause.]

I will stop the rain for a moment. Some of it.

With you. We will come together, yes?

For… there is a clear vision that’s bloomed midst the raindrops, nurtured by them.

We should take care of one another. We must be kind while there is still time. It would be lovely to play music… to see as many people as possible dancing.

Please contact Ricardo at tosca.2010@yahoo.com or Arnold at impelus@gmail.com or Marcelle at bcendra@yahoo.com or Lisa at massaciu@yahoo.com. Or at 831-688-8038 in Aptos, CA. P.S. You won’t believe what’s in http://killinghope.org/bblum6/aer80.html, so don’t read it. That said, Bill Blum’s credentials are impeccable. And there is lots in the piece related to this article (and my previous posting on this site)… about parents and children. Also, you’ll note that Bill is offering — free of charge — lot of interesting FBI files which he no longer has room for in his wretched width of space at home. He’s the guy whose Rogue State was embraced by Osama Bin Laden. His Killing Hope (classic) is an indispensable volume for anyone who wants to enlighten those who’ve been hypnotized history-(un)wise by school teachers.
