"That Damned Moral Sense"


“That Damned Moral Sense.”
 
Assuming State of the Art & the
System Self-Correcting to optimize
the whole deal,  don’t wake at night
with gas prices on my mind, starvation
in the Sudan, Republican atrocities,
school shootings, religious intolerance.
& hurricanes galore. Me: evolutionist.
 
“Do your Work and I shall Know You”
 

S’allgood says Snoop and Pope:
God’s in his Heavens and all’s Right
with the whirl. All is well and all is wall
and all manner of things is well.
 
Go Good Guys! Go Bad Guys!
Keep them in play. Don’t let either
side win. Expect Revelation if not
Apocalypse
 
But this can’t be said. I'll deny it if you
say I said it.
 
It’d be like the One-Eyed man tripping
over furniture  in the Valley of the Blind. 
Speaking  tons of angles: rest merry &
let no thing you dismay..

Idiocy
 
Raking leaves in a strong wind:
Fight the good fight but don’t
expect to win.  (The Wire)
 
Fighting the good fight, raking
leaves in a hurricane. Rolling
the great rock. No win-situation
need apply.
 
Wind in the willows comes
& goes & nobody knows
how cold my toes
are growing.
 
Bears don’t talk, Daddy,
every one knows that
thus concluding our
night-time reading of
Kenneth Grahame
& A.A. Milne
