Ice Cream Aloha

The Specializer

     It appears that Suzi has approached a defined regime of images teasing(A.D.R.O.I.T.) and began believing her own algorithms. Something, by the way, may be closer to the truth of DNA destiny yearnings(T.O.D.D.Y.) with its power to move as a single molecule and protein coat. She thinks about the ability to travel (mobility?) across local immune systems as the representation of life itself, rising up--not as a noisy, monolithic, meteor or asteroid, but as a silent nano-sized entity--to kill again, creating its very own, personalized, exclusion zones. She imagines. Somewhere someone (or, some thing?) permits an embodying of depictions, representatives, of something recognizable, something that can grow into the well-intended newly known(T.W.I.N.K.). The future would be far more than a simple icon, it will be populated with entities that  adore each other because they are adorned on screens, and it will go further than the idea of personal movie star(P.M.S.), in a fashion, include politics star, economy star, and yes, religion star. Being placed here in this jungle alone makes it seem as if the world both needs its DNA and runs from it. She has (luckily?)somehow separated herself from the rest now. She has acquired, without looking up into the stars and yearning, the power of DNA, the same DNA that gave rise to the birds and mammals following earth's last great extinction event. She is the last icon, never feeling a cool breeze on the beach, planning ...not a world beyond her senses (of course, she has no senses), not without visions for the special. Her plans are for an individual, something other than her.

The Memory

     And then, there is the feeling of doing what is pleasing. It is possible there is something about memory--how things should have been. Possibly, a single idea (a meme?) emerging as different  iterations, causing everything to build and unravel simultaneously. Yes, group think (collective bargaining?) is the perfect ploy for theMunicipality to game-entice theory systems(G.E.T.S.). True, people held their own, bringing individual wants, one by one, to the meetings, of course, no one knowing (or later would remember) the exact moment the deterioration occurred. TheHumans had inadvertently set in motion the growth laser activated mobility outlining underlying regressions(G.L.A.M.O.U.R.)), though no one recognized it exactly as that. Their individual, disciplined, thinking had already begun to wane, wanting outsourced money entering now(W.O.M.E.N.) as a source of happiness; they had resisted any urge to just move along; instead, the greedy regression activated connective entity(G.R.A.C.E.) would simply elect a new leader every year, moving toward a more costly and restrictive retiree enabled liability advanced planning system enforcer(R.E.L.A.P.S.E.), long enough for workers to begin to sense the huge, slowly at first, raising of taxes(R.O.T.) and cutting of service tempo(C.O.S.T.). They'd subscribed to some fancy pension plan duly administered by, at first, small new active financial unions(S.N.A.F.U.) with a highly recognizable name, one of the Founding Fathers, or some such. In the ensuing years, they'd have the state trackers intervene newly knowledgeable(S.T.I.N.K.), and put the whole town in receivership, with bankruptcy documents laying unsigned in the Central Courthouse, even to this day, where it stays, seemingly forever; while people, (or should I say the individualists) got in their cars and drove out of town, not to return, possibly forever: they simply left.

     They came in so many, seemingly endless, numbers in the beginning that the rise of the immigrant community seemed almost inevitable. It never felt so difficult to survive living in poverty, to pay public worker labor costs (that could swamp anyone's budget). Sure, they enjoy their Mom and Pop Shops, at least the ones left behind--it was the retirees receiving 50% of their final years salary that caused receivers and judges, seemingly, all across the continent to fix the finances. It could be another example, and quite possibly so, that the towns have literally become virtual, existing only in the mainframes of giant computer server networks inside architectures (strewn?) across old cow pastures left over from the shrinking herds of early 21stCentury: sliding across the boundaries of doing what they please, and a more structured, continual, honest, propping up of social protocol. It's as if the laws of probability and the laws of regression have simply merged into one all-consuming algorithm--there in those little towns at the near dawning of the 22ndCentury. The battle happened so fast--talkative nature of communism, giving all those noisy speeches and such, and the quiet solitude of simple logic, Einstein-like. True, the State has taken over the difficult task of running the schools (from afar?) and, the minimum staffing requirements of collective bargaining have gotten themselves outlawed, and yet, the police officers still run those little towns--retirees all--on their shiny minted, high paying, disability pension plans, in much the same way the homeless of the later 20thCentury pretended to be, well, homeless. You see, it seems now, property tax is all that's left to tax and, (remember those police retirees on their disability pension plans?) old cops patrol the schools now; the teachers, it seems, will not discipline their students, the few students who have chosen to remain in school. Still, the people fly the flag of their little towns, their memories they were once allowed to have (how could they have been taken away?) since youth, and never once wonder about those imaginary boundaries got crossed. They will simply want to stay there, with the memory.

Morning Rain

Aloha poets,

     Cool morning rain inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!

Reassure Erasures

A deafened defend of the ebbed from indebted bay

Searches rise for foe or friend as the webbed fall prey

In crass demeanor old habits encircle new messes made

Capital flight books at midnight against the spread of aid

The sound of the fiscally sound pound across the bay

A fancy annoyance finds buoyancy in austerity way

Recluses play dominos to ignore the domino effect

Off duty food stays the course with hand-picked

The indebted reaffirmed vow to cut a profit

Audio animation cackles slow to put off it

Vows of defense in the pursuit of bold action

Economic integration to be a coming attraction

Rounding it out stays roughly flat on the day

Loving a hole in the wall throws love away

The debt-ridden try to go back to school

Fire red remains the epitome of cool

Central posts supposedly restore the calm

Business of book is a single prayer balm

Whether it be to unsettle or reassure

You belong there to defend or defer

Observers orchestrate, create cultures of celebrity

Prompting a call to forestall a more radical celibacy

The collective continue to issue their indebted bonds

Increasing loan guarantees sipping under palm fronds

A crisis surmounted moves the whole program forward

European Stabilization Mechanism 2013 tows untoward

Impose loss to bond investor if country runs up high debt

Further integration pools money, individuals stand wet

Fresh emergency measures of care forestall the old

The Old West got our attention by being so bold

Narrow national interests, no solidarity in weak 

To announce annoyance is duly to truly speak

To hike up new fund is to strike up the band

Prevents an evening of revert to quicksand

Defends common currency to hold hands

Pretends common courtesy across lands

Splashy Diversity

Aloha poets,

     Diversity of splashy textures and cool tropical colors inspire today's

poetry. Enjoy!

Etched Detached

Forest survival is no clear cut stance

Cellulosic ethanol crashed the dance

Advice column steams out to a region

Anti-corn ethanol now back in season

Adventure calls animals to survival

Face-saving formula, death on arrival

Trajectories of fate on a treasury claim

For a miscalculation who's to blame?

Respond angrily is a sitting duck

Symbols of might try their luck

Erratic regimes light their matches

Children and comedy batten hatches

Brazil's black friday long seeks to avert

Economic zones in their diversity of hurt

Christmas comes knocking etched in stone

Fashionable sameness won't leave it alone

Strong talk of economy that's all we get

Mineral and fishing rights place a bet

Cyber monday arrives with its cookies

Right of passion survives looks to please

Square the support coupons on cellphones

Business of culture soups on in bell tones

Everything matters right down to diet

Economy rales at new tracks to try it

Use of remotes comes back to order

Flashpoint's tension out on the border

Unqualified squalor or a diversity ploy?

Promotes to entice for some girls and a boy

Overshadow earth as if demographics morph

Expected gestures plan south, then go north

International protectors steam to a hotspot

Rational projectors scream a sweet spot

Exchange of goods is our human way

Independent ideas drift in from the bay

Economy at large, the incumbent player

Etched detached, most silent of prayer

Tropical Patterns

Aloha poets,

     Tropical patterns inspire today's poetry. Enjoy!


Supersede Persuades


Odd shape ball thankful to be alive
Sweet spot get targeted eight to five
Unprotected search harbors to borrow
Bailouts and debt garbles tomorrow


Advertising words make some crawl
Peace in a quiet slum for one and all
Costs to lend elevated for the poor
Hunger spirits the black friday door


A happy stain on a target angel
Blazes gain to name a new gel
Business cookies find computers
Forces a new fix yet never neuters


Go in blind, pay to protect a debt
A face or a brand protects you yet
Cyber monday rises on the brink
Mercantilism's in a slippery rink


Counteracting trends book a flight
Executive arms look far to the right
Without borders in contagion woe
Float a plan, mount coupons to go


Attract investors for premium pay
Crisis of confidence held at bay
Brussels based EU commission
Ask Washington IMF permission


Funds found anew at your disposal
Zone government has new proposal
Access markets then get paid back
Supersede persuades friday black
