A Tribute to all those that have died exposing the corruption in our government
Friend | 1/19/2017 | Touchstone

This is What Boredom Reaps.

It’s the quality of man that makes a difference, Though many are shattered souls from endless temptation.

Constant bombardment of sensual propaganda, And to retain a translucent dignity when all seems lost.

Its unnerving pressure to do what needs to be done, Though the task is simple, the will to succeed is daunting.

This is What Boredom Reaps.

It’s the quality of man that makes a difference, Though many are shattered souls from endless temptation.

Constant bombardment of sensual propaganda, And to retain a translucent dignity when all seems lost.

Its unnerving pressure to do what needs to be done, Though the task is simple, the will to succeed is daunting.

The institutions have lost their honor and have succumbed, The entitled are wicked and the powerful are knowingly corrupt.

The precipice is in front of us is formidable, And mettle will be in short supply.

Who do you trust? Are you foe or friend? The enemy has a multitude of disguises and many are woven in.

Treachery and stolen valor are the symptoms of their rotting souls, Duplicity is a tactic; the enemy is dark and deep.

This is what boredom reaps.

Ethics clash with self-indulgence and the rationalizations begin, The defenseless, though lauded, are secretly sold.

We have to rise to promote our betters, And not deny why we are here.

This war is for the enlightened who are tired of the lies, And for those Patriots that lie in graves, but refuse to remain silent.

You see stuff like this scribbled in snot on the walls of padded rooms. WTF.

It is a tactic of our enemies to try to demoralize us, intimidate us, or blind us to their evil.

I applaud those who by their voices, actions, sacrifices, and their prayers are trying to awaken those who refuse to see it, and to seek justice for the victims of those who chose evil over good.

The war never ends, but battles can be waged and won.

*** Do Not Eat the Red Rope Licorice! ***

That made me laugh because I just ordered 7 lbs (two 3.5 lb tubs) of Red Vines Licorice a few days ago. I ordered black licorice, so I think I will be safe.

Seven pounds is a serious commitment.

Do you also possess a Mirthmobile and dispenser?

Boredom becomes ennui.

Ennui leads to en-wee-wee.

A life truly pi$$ed away.

Very well said.

Word 'round the cosmic campfire is we're experiencing the three foul spirits of Rev 16:13 getting busy.

Spend some time researching what is really behind the Clinton Foundation. Thanks for your illustrative comment.

It wasn’t the horrific events which I lampooned, it was the horrifically self-absorbed prose used to defile their memory which I ridiculed.
