Occupy Walls

Aloha free thinkers--occupy walls of water--imagine freedom--ride the wave
-adventure yourself

Landing Site of Freedom


        He sips the breeze. He barely hears himself as he utters to the horizon: "This can never die." he thinks, slower this time, of how he--how any human--could make a machine like that. He reflects on the sparkles coming off the ocean.  "A work of art, billions of years in the making." It is a beautiful, imaginative thought, a little disconnected from who he thought he was. 
        The machine pronounces new plans inside his mind, quietly but forcefully, as if a message just returned. He could decide to kill. It is a simple, monotone thought, not entirely out of his realm. Exotic stations are where scientists go to save the world, aren't they?  It's possible--maybe even certain--that someone or something targets a radio beam right here, to the unsuspecting. Something calculated as the last landing site; something looks at these cliffs and that ocean on its own screen. By reaching out, it seems, your own personal force field surmounts the extreme conditions of its immediate surroundings and enters the zone of hope; the life zone you seek to occupy, a life zone where greed and, even bacteria have been eliminated.

Red Tropical Bird

Aloha poets,
     Red tropical bird inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!


Demask Damascus

Syria's seriousness dulls its freedom bell
Can the world watch and just say oh well?
The Golden Age of Caring is more than soils
Clearinghouse brings the news as the global roils

Medical systems, healthcare needed for war
The extinction of fear simply says "no more"
Writers at gravity center solid to the core
The moral cohesion simple no chore

Photos as tangible links to life
Ghosts of seamless transition's strife
Doting parents seek christmas charisma
Beyond the Heartland hearts seek America

Fame runs away while heroism runs in families
Hit hard by the deeper things runs to sanctity
Cruelty emits its own input as a fatality
Demask Damascus, go see reality

Ice Cream Aloha

The Guardians
Scientists view politics with a continual,  intelligent, overly articulate envy. They feel, it seems, all of a sudden they have the edge, using various theories of the now defunct (at least waning), scientific method, the new persuasive technique to the world. Their education, the one they got from stacks of scientific journals, migrates, almost naturally, into all-talk (opinion?); there is the assumption that educated means smart and, smart means intelligent, the kind of intelligence that gives and receives correct information--it'll be the final death knell to the scientific method and the beginning of the more ideas that the politicos could solve any problem, including the one Magna Algorithma Pharma(M.A.P.), better known as corporate farm, has created.  ZContinent, by now, is paying for risky technology. Contradictions still rise between perception and behavior, merging political thinking (thinking?) and, at least what used to be known as, scientific thinking, into one event. They make the universities, with old stalwart architecture as a hallmark of knowledge, vast grounds (still green?) turned empty, they forget about mentoring and research, the simple concept of student--feeling they have done much for perception and, yes, world population. They survive in the world of computer stocks where digital investing entices, remains all the rage--for them only (who care about the dot com disaster of later 20th Century?) . They are quick to theorize with constant juxtapositions and fancy words. These are the science politicos, the ones who silence science, the ones ensuring regulation and protection remain as prevention. They are the guardians.

Ice Cream Aloha

Red Brick Drug Store Church 


A pair of entrances truly extend out with its needy hand
Rural community sacred buildings dot America land
It has arisen, that is, the rise of a spiritual angst
Almighty pharmacology world gives thanks


Planting seed, as if apple, all across the heartland
Original american experience, an adventure so grand
Preservation architecture for an app store or pharmacy?
Demolition permit extinction in the land of the free?


Oh lord, build me a drug store by sacred decree
Freedom locks in its fiercest battles just for me
Brisky business of old estates seemed so real
Take book against the spread, this new deal


Business as usual in the evolution of a drug
Rainwater drips, domed ceiling needs a plug
Fleeting celebrity little church across the plain
Bulldozed into extinction so soon buried by rain


Christmas the crime as denominations congregated?
The elderly coerced by prescriptions relegated?
Corporations of Christ the new mix tape plays
Single format religions in many ways prays


Can somebody do a documentary on this?
Crossroads Pharmacy where feet are kissed?
Congregants need not apply for hellish dreams
Only dream activists hear limestone column screams


Where in The Good Book is architecture preservation?
To afford the sale is heritage of an America nation
Who sits hours on end in old wooden pews?
Paint flakes off, flat screens show the news


Business thrives most places bankers engage
Were little red brick churches really all the rage?
Where once a guitar and a piano took the stage
Red brick church fade to black, turn the page

New Year Hues

Aloha poets,
      Tropical colors for the new year inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!

The Gratified Tiff

Bumpy climbs of wrongdoing face off unkempt
To fend off any or all matchmaking attempts
Medical dangers lurk inside a signature case
At a cherry cordial they put on happy face

Outside children play with a new 3d game
Health risks summon out a worthy name
Adventure seeks to find its own way true
Hotly anticipated probes now peddle anew

Rainbow worlds might go bonkers with color
Any misuse of a resource needs only one caller
Technology counted on boosts to appeal a labor
Poorly placed fire pits neighbor against neighbor

Public shamings only a sham to face off with aces?
Nonpayers to big companies lose service at places
The intermediaries show up in big shiny buckles
All in Valley of the Falling Rain drag knuckles

A flat tire in tall trees angst shoots the breeze
Unregulated brokering of retirement please
Influence peddling offers its political realm
Scant evidence of a gratified tiff at the helm

Investment brokers advise to make the deal
Get together over cherry cordial for the zeal
Underdog introduced to encourage conversation
Pressure the deal holds firm America business nation

Happy New Year

Aloha poets,
     Tropical blue for a happy new year inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!

Unraveling Nirvana

The proper supplier offers a viewer option
Cable operators go slow now up for adoption
Allergy to regulation once came so naturally
Big cable now the little puppy to the FCC?

Competition raises the America flag
Apple and android enter races to drag
Bandwidth is the road beyond duality
FCC bets to promise on net neutrality

Amazon joins into the fray to sell at will
Programming owners get a moonshine still
Cable packages up for next big extinction
Able competitor gains new distinction

To unravel a cozy system is the need
The return to relevance stops to bleed
Broadband supply system up in the air
Potatoes on couches rise savvy to care

Radio and TV chips for every cell phone?
Big broadband system reaches each home
Will bandwidth ever be charged a fee?
Reasons to rise up explore on a spree

Telcom or Telco? well, here come the Bigs
Over-the-air-spectrum-programmer new digs
Broadband load in primetime votes for net neut
IP network video boots up, gives it a hoot

Program supplier soon to be the big telecom?
Cable sings "win some lose some" fat lady song
Video delivery broadband gears up sweepstakes
Unraveling cable nirvana tries to jam on the brakes

Policy initiative operates the road only one way
Noisy surrender statements whimper away
Cable network old model TV program
Turn out the lights, thank you m'am

Availability to competitor the America way
Competition strikes at every heart of fair play
Big Boys and the Bigs bounce their balls to burn
Little-guy viewer hopes for more places to turn

Everyone knows free markets fail if not free
Government failure to intervene? the glee
Subscribers, providers sing and shout
Cable rates down, extinction of blackout

Rise of new roles comes riding over the hill
Broadcasts need to be managed yet still
Video barrage soon to hit network IP
Cable extinction lets all the world see

Christmas Tropical

Aloha poets,
     Bright tropical colors of the Hawaii Christmas season inspire
today's poetry. Enjoy!

Dystopian Stops

The struggling periphery, rustic underdog values
Takes a snap to be caught out by thunder halos
Geographies of centrality takes a center stage
New efficient city takes its turn at the page

Legendary quest in the old tangible way
Veteran and vikings once had their say
Academics plan voting, seek in values
Technology scans, toting bleak news

Violence analysts rise up in the mist
Travel therapy still targets the kissed
Glitter bodes, fine beauty finds a way
Unmitigated outmigrations grind away

Any likely scenario has its own vultures
New heights command global eco cultures
Economics fight amongst their chosen battles
Ease of doing business beckons snakes, no rattles

Business stays within its lone dear sharp focus
Clear sense of place brings no hocus pocus
Infrastructures of communication's tight
Dystopian stops in darkness of night

Tropical Congress

Aloha poets,
     Collection of tropics palms and shadows in a tropical congress
inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!

Reinnovation Reign

Poor hinterland beckons a new wheel to track faction
Authoritarian capitalism answers with ad extraction
Can reinnovation ever really be a concrete threat?
Technology rides animation on arrival's sure bet

Add a little advice make the final book your own
Sugar and spice shows the world the fully grown
Interested in help? says you can take it from here
Reinnovation reigns with happy slaps and a beer

To be a competitive threat is already in the water
Reverse engineered foreign technology as fodder
Reforming the reforms becomes the human way
Business biology holding new extinctions at bay

To smirk is a cynic in a bandit's band aid culture
Progression of a business invites thirsty vulture
Joint venture's trading partners stand new lines
One against all resolves issues in these times?

For growth and prosperity they say just sync up
Children and charity hope lifeboat has no hiccup
Familiar spectacles now understood as political
Boosted state-owned business form regrettable

Fairness the coalition, the wealthiest unheeded
Percentile points now truly what is not needed
Grow your little business, America is the place
Homegrown competition reins innovation race

Tropical Green Blues

Aloha poets,
     Green and blues of the holiday season inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!

Story Flyovers 

Availability of the widespread expanded wings take flight
Natural competitiveness runs along on grounds of the night
Beyond apple trees and animals and an africa of ancient past
Story flies over on availability of total spectrum touting at last

Ideological preference finds a new book with cool animation
Back from the wilderness story wanders amid statist nation
Voluntary incentives auction a preference for one final bid
Plaintive cry of recent history places Brazil at center grid

Current context, present form seeks new focus attention
Decades decide upon suggestion of old who did mention
Slower data travels along dirt wayside in wooden crates
Blue and green up ahead, though unlicensed, still waits

World lies in wait as wireless innovation stretches it flat
Biology and children and government solutions once sat
Draconian talking points reach out for a more social flair
A pile of money for everyone at anytime and anywhere?

Social transfer payments beyond radar and its far reach
Capital allocations of the political climb walls to a breach
Time to increase growth's wealth the old fashioned way?
To couch our choice in language where necessity has say

Predatory regulation grits its teeth such across the lands
Interoperable broadband allows smiles us to hold hands
In spates of elegance we engage in our own band dance
Story flyovers offer America freedom its new chance

Shadow Design

Aloha poets,
    Cool tropical design shadows of the holiday season inspire
today's poetry. Enjoy!


Robo Therapy


For an ease of investor diversification becomes the new game
Advertising health against the spread, wealth in whose name
Death flight in one stop shop mode, android the future form
Inevitable results fee society, once free judgement the norm


Business comes usual, authoritarian capitalism health state
Ease of convenience populations enter monopoly new gate
Mechanistic mercantilists opt in as humans for purification
Geographics become one for simple investor securitization


Brazil a celebrity as developing country's emerging market
Chill for a medical system to ease a mass production target
Medical model eliminates a cost of messy decision making
By-the-book diversified portfolios as a brand for the taking


Baby boomers grow up a blogworld monolithic doctoring
Portfolios of new heath becoming a chart and chalk thing
Mechanisms of gene therapy under recognition regulators
Government sponsored agencies risk chomping alligators


To underwrite the future of America addiction or disease
Songs so bright suitor, one-size-fits-all treatment to please
Regime in gear as guarantor, responsibility of constitution
Complacency finds careless and restive simplicity solution


Health as an asset once meant for independent happy need
Ascends as asset for investor diversification portfolio heed
Correlate price of medical markets design for investor ease
Risk free cheap deal for investor no doctor judgement fees


The law as it stands now in requirement case by case judge
Centralized models approach to face a fight that may budge
Diversified and securitized arrives a new health care system
Authoritarian capitalism arrives as if china in all its wisdom


Mass produce your own gene therapy as a consumer goods
Government duty to taxpayers, get us all out of the woods?
Doctors in demand take time, get to know their own patient
Medical model seem sublime convenience without patience


Calories and computers with blood sugar's decision making
Medical records hospital prudence to investor for the taking
The dynamic unregimented go the way of a national model
Plug in numbers to your health system for on the spot yodel


Huge data processing factories to print number just for you
Investor security and diversity portfolio all of humanity too
Hi-tech health care low talk independent so judgement free
Collect to pass on medical data, get your own robo therapy

Storybook Water

Aloha poets,
     Natural animation figures offer a storybook feel to the tropical blue;
inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!


Quiet Eloquent


Silent world's business, america monitors a monolith
Kitschy and beauty collide before a new singularity kiss
Is congress truly "america" in its simplest of definitions?
Ideas popularize to polarize within freedom's renditions


Olive branches extend amidst figments and figs
Oval offices bend between the little and the bigs
Who could not be happy now, a little weight loss
Politics figment of business asks "Who's the boss?"


A crusty bread it seems is one true america face
To protect its edge of old, the united states its case
Reporting every transaction over six hundred dollars
Business retreats to the year 1099 in chills and hollers


In politics and poetry you must feed your crowd
The business of business, workplace screams loud
To organize ideas popularized by individual thinking
Saddled with the unbridled, technology is blinking


America indicted, monitored as if rambunctious youth?
Freedom in literature fights more elegant on the truth
Ideology rankles as business and politics popularize
Pragmatic democrats grab attention, pop your eyes


Isn't "producing" a moving impulse of america life?
Wish continued success, invest in no governed strife
Prosperity emerges as the transparent buys and sells
Quiet eloquent sounds far off, america freedom bells

Holiday Tropical

Aloha poets,
     Tropical holiday green and blue inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!


Labyrinth Lady


Interest tumbles with the dollar and rates
Quantitative easing the opposite of brakes
Outsides look in at the qualitative schemes
Advertising entertainment gear up dreams


Business worlds shed their tears and souls
In hopes of lifestyle and the future of goals
Global financial markets whoop and cheer
Hopeful pockets in rounds, a musical chair


Inside story with its plots of a real fine run
Of sugar and science and Brazil in the sun
Inflation may spark amidst rain forest wet
America investing in emerging market bet


Realms of taboo, the Fed prints money yet
To buy and pay its own U.S. Treasury debt
Bankruptcy as new style branding scheme?
America Central Bank the America dream


Unleash a concern, add my fever to yours
Our big central bank, the Federal Reserve
Barack Obama indie, business and brands
Hopes of travel igniting all working hands


Still ask questions of where logic may be
Elections at home, the tears we could see
An ounce of chime for America propriety
Labyrinth Lady beyond the sparkling sea

Travel Cool

Aloha poets,
     Cool tropical morning hues, a relaxing journey as thanksgiving
season approaches, inspire today's poetry. Enjoy! 

Spigot Forgot

Slurpies and shellacking now the buzz of politics
Democrats, a weight loss program congress picks
Elections are over do we now set aside speeches?
Life is that perpetual motion machine, it teaches

Liquidity of printed America money off to brazil
Peripheral America zone members ask china still
Same degrees of a distain emerge after halloween
America really headed for a king and or a queen?

Looming pressure may poise on preemptive strike
Elections of diversity lets us all pick what we like
Paints our moves as if our urges continue to press
Strong virginal looks see beauty beyond the mess

Controversial stays at home or may travel abroad
Conversational is not alone in gay laughter's nod
Cotton prices rise today yet no fashion strikes late
CCC was FDR plan Obama needs alike mandate

With slurpies and shellackings we all take a listen
Jobs, like jazz, in our stilled patriot mind to glisten
Polarizers in culture are now an independent elder
Final outpost of the educated watches the smolder

Money pumps rise in a Fed to weaken U.S. dollar
Your honey jumps in surprises, fed up with holler
Screens present politics to families of a blue collar
Government's the gamer in promises, a real baller

A man (woman) on his (her) game America needs
Took a while to get to this point where it all bleeds
Broad basket of trading partners surely have needs
Call it a stake out as America on production pleads

Be the individual, raise your own benchmark target
Be a guide of crisis response in henchman's market
Guide conditions back prosperity little by little hype
Spigot forgot you were the one who makes the pipe

Green Energy

Aloha poets,
     Green plants, gravity, and blue water offer "green energy,"
inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!


Links Causally to Casually Eschew Cheers


Engagement consequences are your true feelings
Elections pick a new apple with patriots healing
Confrontation is only one aspect of video scene
Freedom of choice is the decision on the screen


Revelation appears as UFO landing on a lawn
Digital health info loaded on board and gone?
Twitter away with a comment or new decision
For recognition of America after a last division


Offshore vendors of our records get a chance
Outsource your fictitious claim for the dance
Tech work providers come alive as a catalyst
Google lawsuit claims they are left off the lists


Health care records are the new coming wave
Scenes of reflection only for the future brave
System of standards in government alignment
Literature of your lifestyle a digital assignment


Hospitals of America unite our record overseas
Send my medical records by snail mail, please?
To know my name and also how to spell it too?
India or offshore gets my indie health interview


Electronic medical health records, my algorithm
Outsourcing data companies in Al Gore rhythm
Capitulation for a storyteller, just another scene
To shoot nude with X-rays? once only a dream


Moment to moment we walk together through 
Scene of horror outsourcing data only for you
Federal mandate and doctors, for you to mend
Data companies identify your own future trend


Borders and coastlines and a great barrier reef
Now emotional barriers alter a previous belief
To send, or not, those health records overseas
Casually links causal resolution as they please

Halloween Cat

Aloha poets,
    Can you see the shadow of tropical cat appearing green?
Inspires today's spooky poetry in Hawaii halloween season. Enjoy!


All Hallows Eve


Bobbing for apple may become passe'
America art, harvest rack well on it's way
Even sweeter arrives as a standard answer
Alternative energy's a new pumpkin dancer


It's a great argument that thing called business
Who are we to take it on with all the dizziness?
Beauty strikes a chord even on Halloween eve
Editors and eds pick is what we are to believe


A quiet hero dresses silent for a trick or treat
That's like heaven for children on the street
Old dvd collections in think tank catching
Founding mogul's muscles stretching


Costumes conspire faces in masks
Canopy and vines, spooky little tasks
Audience gathers in the dark of the park
Herds of boise state broncos start the spark


Geeky glamor hides as an entertainment ego
Great wines and marvelous cigars of long ago
Bring a new favorite or just a classic standby
Affinity's vicinity painted entrepreneurs try


Plant fashion forward, be illegal immigrant
Halloween jazzed up, funny rave and rant
Old noisemakers or clickers on the streets
Kindle's of age, lady gaga tricks or treats


Cragginess counts, even as world weary
All Hallows Eve, on street party so cheery
Music soothes the soul, costumes' kickstand
Whoever without consequence on quicksand


Pseudo pagan holiday, part law and part tradition?
Halloween 2010 offers its own special rendition
Dark night All Hallows Eve once stood
Born now as culture neighborhood

Tropic Shelter Ghosts

Aloha poets,
     Morning haze rises as ghosts in tropical shelter garden in Hawaii
halloween season; inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!


Wyomingites Mingle


Vows lie inside afterglow's afterthought
Lifestyle decor, that which was bought
Snowmen, angels find no culture wars
Public wrangles, privatization abhors


Out on the tundra in natural recycle
A-frame headquarters rides bicycle
Business bullying, digs that ground
Personal network, beauty is found


Individualized taste enters the fray
"Added value" entrepreneurs say
Toss in a lariat, a little sagebrush
Ask a democrat what's the rush?


Old Horseshoe, America range
Culture hammer candy canes
Corporate comes wilderness
Change decides it's a mess


Cattle ranch's new hay
Cowboy boots to say
Homemakers acres
Old America way

Blue Hawaii Pumpkin Hues

Aloha poets,
     Colors of halloween pumpkins and blue water splashes in Hawaii
halloween season inspire today's poem. Enjoy!


The Collective


Alien alternative energy emerges with its slow deepening calm
Algorithms submerge to conquer, worlds ask,"what's wrong?"
"Unintended" is the watchword taken to within Nth degrees
Free press defended by china elders the horizon says it sees


Advertising has its strengths, in our hearts we know the truth
Nobel Peace Prize's  Liu Xiaobo, for unborn chinese youth
Business as usual, The Collective holds the world at bay
State-run news Xinhua small thoughts try to hold sway


Celebrities gather to exude simple freedoms of speech
Central Propaganda depersonalizes within an elite reach
"New phase of opening up," can regimes ever be a "party?"
It's our own pumpkin chronicles that's kept America hearty


Comedy, change Standing Committee's no laughing matter
Starts with freedom of the press, then debate with a chatter
Add entertainment to your screen without algorithm spatter
Entrepreneur moves in environment where freedom's fatter


Everybody does their group's will when career is full throttle
Too intellectual? go to china prison or countryside with a bottle
Mutual suspicions bounce around, and can cause the inadvertent
Mobile thoughts emerging from The Collective's minority elite tent

Halloween Hawaii Blue

Aloha poets,
     Haunting halloween colors in mists of tropic blue inspire today's
halloween season poem. Enjoy!


Global Gobble System


Time leaves its mark as we all venture on
Escape velocity offers its own little song
2010 elections arrive early to fix the fizz
Apophis comet by 2029 or Mama Grizz?


The Path of Totality sets its own course
Hunting ranch inside fences needs horse?
The old warmth we once knew by the fire
Find it within kind hearts and call it desire


Android literally does mean "like a man"
Logic walks back from"it's stupid," it can
Imperfection a finer point of human nature
Blogworld soon becomes its own creature


Children of America oblivious to spending
Play with no reaction to something pending
Are friendships really our only safety net?
Emotional falls call to ask are we there yet


Genius thrives alone behind world's blind
"Change" itself think we had this in mind?
Find humans on screens with old rhetoric
Finds its own network baseballbatter quick


Individual liberty by some is entertainment
Centralized power too much is arraignment
Face to face with facebook we see the light
Can government gobble system be so bright


Freedom is preventing abuse by the federal
Federal needs liberty's energy to defend all
Individuals stand up to a centralized power
Gobble system on global watch every hour

Haunted Hawaii Design

Aloha poets,
     Ghostly figures rise early morning in Hawaii garden halloween season,
inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!


Gullible Gorilla


Are the headwaters of "want" in our prefrontals bound?
Where given housing education health is to be found?
On review, sign form on time, create a welfare state
Solution runs to join union hurry up don't be late


Don't have to work, nor save; be unmarried
Carry a sign hit the street stay harried
Technology surely has your back
Systems keep us all on track?


Remember the old phrase "You called me?"
Contend, not graze, be the busy bee
Run, do something with thought
Next door really cares a lot


Join America, write a novel , teach a child
Be great be yourself, be the one smiled
Be the one to go, test your own wills
Government monster's in the hills 


Televisions on, social media kills debate
The takers are the ones we all hate
Tolerance can only go so far
Gorillas beg to drive a car


Intergenerational folk lazy to rise
Leaves it up to the other guys
Unemployment racks it up
Enjoyment, a shrink pup


Government balloon
To pop very soon?
Don't hand a zero
Be your hero

Tropical Green Earth

Aloha poets,
     Dark earth greens, browns, and blues inspire the tropical halloween
season, today's poetry. Enjoy!

America Halloween


Children journey in Founding Father's dress
Revolutionary re-creation gets out your best
New Battle of Saratoga this time in no book
18th Century rebels now sport a new look


Spends into oblivion, must be child's play
So colonial costumes we must all don today
Colonials would have thought us an odd duck
To wear three cornered hats just for good luck


Advertising what seemed once a promise to act
Freedom of choice by all appearances backed
Massachusetts parachute of history on track
Is a fife and a drum all we lack?


Children grow, learn of our past
Parental stories of old seem to last
Up and running burgundy breeches
Halloween scary offers frog or leeches


Campaign now as colonial folk once did
Revolutionary era buckle wavy white wig
Long jacket knickers cool, just pretending
Freedom comedy, wooden buttons mending


Democrats invention, kind of a group thing
Frilly neck, blousy shirt and never a king
Change moves slow in shapes and sizes
Tricorn hat, knee-high stocking idealizes


Future of culture may be a celebrity costume
Did frontier freed of of choice fly past in a zoom?
Is all this debt a mock battle of revolutionary days?
Minutemen with muskets are we, political foggy haze


Black shoes on, we march across hallowed grounds
In trick or treat wonder, listening for new sounds
Hear freedom's bell, colonial commerce to found
Halloween, common sense, bring america around
