A Poem to Wake U

Sleepy people

We're so silly

We who think the system works

Bestowing faith in a bunch of jerks
Where do we think our money's going?
We just spend it without even knowing

Why are there starving people on this planet?
Isn't there food? Can't we demand it?

Aren't we empathetic beings
With hearts and minds to help with freeing
The entire human race from pain
So needless, and suffering in vain

Is this really what will be our demise?

Will we let the rich bitch rise
To snatch our freedoms once more
Like they've done so many times before

But this time we're all together

There are more of us to do away with it forever
And create a world of balance again
Where everyone eats and we're all friends

Of friends of friends of friends of friends

Who recognize that in the end
It's our responsibility to reclaim
The truth that we are all the same
So real freedom can be attained
And unnecessary fears can be tamed

We're damned in this hell that we've created
Where we allow ourselves to be dictated
We can be our own police
Our own governmental body of peace

Where issues that matter are solved with resolve

To absolve all these burdens and we can evolve

Collectively reclaiming our birthrights exclaiming
We are human beings and aiming
For the whole of our soul with these goals

To become one in the eyes of our neighbors
And gaining control of our responsibilities
To all living creatures on this planet

No longer taking for granted
That Mother Nature will continue providing

Despite our abuse

Our beliefs keep dividing
When will you see you as me and me as you?
And we as we as one as truth

To create this space as one race

In loving embrace who stroll with grace
Across the face of this blessed place
Ending the game of hide and seek

Guess what? I found you! Now can we speak?

About how to overcome the folly's of history's
Ability to keep our unity and oneness a mystery
Let us awake, us people so sleepy from centuries of creepy
Behavior that only serves to keep us weepy
From all the pain that we've endured
Lifetimes of suffering completely ignored

I believe in you

Can you believe in me?

Can we believe in ourselves in this sea?
Of mass confusion and ignorant bliss
That has brought us all here to this
Time of dependency on outside others

I shudder to think about our Mother Earth

Being smothered with my sisters and brothers
Who had a chance and never took it
Opportunities knocking let's not overlook it

Let's make a collective effort to save her

And do ourselves and the animals a favor
To enjoy this benevolent creation
As one people, one love, one peace, one nation

A peaceful revolution is waiting

So let's stop hating, berating, debating
Start equating, creating, innovating and stating
What we know in our depths to be true

So I can be me and you can be you

And we can be we, and trees can be trees
And bees can be bees

Finally free

I'll get down on my knees
If I have to

by Lauren Roderick

I received this lovely poem from a friend from MySpace. Lauren so eloquently, profoundly and simply put together a picture of the chaos and the answer in a rhyming, melodic form of beauty. I took the liberty to cast a format and give an emphasis that is mine.

peace & harmony,

Questions from the Front

"Hey wanted to get your take on the bailout and any websites that are not mainstream."
... asked my brother

... my response absent the personal exchange of love and affection!

as for sources for information ...

if you haven't checked out some of the bulletins i've posted recently on MySpace, do that (only if you want to see some of the things i've seen recently ... outside of the yahoo! news headlines when i sign on ... i think I reposted a bulletin with a newsclip from an interview with ex-Mex President Fox from some years back ... if its not there let me know, i'll find it and repost it).

but, to be honest, you don't have to look at "alternative" web sources to see what's happening, traditional, mainstream sources like PBS, NPR and even to a much lesser degree, the other mainstream media contain all the information, you just have to see it. i think the big key is to listen to the news ... discern the difference between news and opinion (which is hard to do right now in our current information market). my personal favorite person in the news market is bill moyers, i try to catch his show on pbs at least once every couple of months to know i'm not insane and that there is hope here in america!

if you want to really know what is happening, less is more.

it is about increasing YOUR awareness ... which, i am sure you have learned, you cannot do if you are being fed other people's awareness (the whole "ask, seek & knock" rather than "sit and be told"). you know the trick, find and know your sources ... the one's that increase your awareness and encourage you to ask more questions rather than think they've answered them for you.

what is happening is all being done in "plain view" ... there's no real way to hide it, but they definitely do a good job using the information market to make it appear exactly how they want it to in order to achieve their goals ... emotional people don't make good decisions. people who are about making money (at least right now in this greed economy) feed off people making bad decisions ... and america is all about the emotions ... but i'm sure you don't want to get into an astrological discussion!

ah, but your question ... my take on the bailout ....

first, you can't just look at the bail out ... you have to see what the fed has been doing with the dollar over the past years (since the "outing" of the new world order agenda by GHWB). but in the past months, in particular, you can easily see a view of the larger picture. the influx of $s by the fed into the foreign banks in september was very interesting. also, look at all of the other "bailouts" already conducted and see who did it, e.g., was it the fed, the treasury, or FDIC? see what they got for their "investment" and who benefits vs. the current bailout. watch the banking consolidations too! you also have to pay attention to the controversy relating to the number of $s the fed is printing right now, coupled with the other controversy of the fed NOT disclosing to the global markets the actual number of dollars currently in and now being put into circulation.

in terms of america and the bailout, i think that www.wethepeoplefoundation.org, is really the only sane website looking at the bailout from a constitutional point of view.

the bailout is fundamentally anti-american, but we don't want to think about that because we have so much invested in this false america ... that is how so many other empires have fell before, this is nothing new. everyone else is yakking about it on a very superficial level ('omg, what about jobs?" ... as if this whole thing doesn't come down, you're not going to do what you need to survive ... and one really needs very little to survive!). i think those who were offering alternatives to the bailout scheme, were basically offering the same net effect of the bailout ... still they are only doing so because they do not want to detach from the illusion. i think that some of the alternatives that were offered were a more practical, easier pill to swallow, and definitely better for the every-day man, but, come on, if it was about america or the man in the street, we would have never elected GWB once, let alone twice ... and/or let him get away with all of the executive orders he put in place, AND we would have tried him for treason already!

then, you also have to watch the oils futures market and see how its dropping ... the oil market is based on the dollar (why? who the hell knows (actually, that's a very interesting thing, but a can of worms i'm not going into at 4 a.m.!), but it is, and they want to change that, and have wanted to change that for a long time!) bear (pun intended) in mind, russia is a huge player in this. china is the largest player, but they are pretty content to watch the game occur between those who are manipulating, posturing and, well, scrambling. china will play the game from a tactical point of view that is detached from the actual movement, capitalizing on the moves being made rather than being a major "player" in the movement. for me, that is true capitalism, and the way you have the most power and favorable outcome because you capitalize on every twist and turn of others who think they are controlling everything -- then you can create fortune on every movement.

the bailout is part of the process we are in: the collapsing of the dollar. it is a necessary step for the switch to the amero. the contracts and treaties are already in place for the amero, lou dobbs is about the only mainstream media person even trying to watch this transpire, and they have shut him down pretty consistently on this issue. i have heard more talk about it on the "infomercial" news stations recently, so they are really starting to focus on the shift.

so, the dollar is collapsing, no big deal, really, if you are smart about it. likely, they will first 'revalue' it, a popular way for those who are in the know to make some quick cash ... if you study recent currency collapses/revalue and/or conversions in europe (to the euro), and look to the mexican, central/south american markets or japan for currency revaluation, you can see how that game is played.

personally, i think the bailout may have saved the '08 election. i think that if the bailout did not go through congress, steps would have been take to institute the executive orders that have been put in place and the election would have been suspended for any number of reasons that could be used right now. the bailout was definitely a ploy to make sure that everyone is going down the same road together ... everyone involved in politics is committed to the 'corporate america', and further confirmation of the movement to the "one world order" (and i don't think that is a bad word or phrase, its just what is happening). that "order' can be created however those who are aware want to create it ... unfortunately, i think that right now, those who are aware and creating the structures right now for this new world order are not very community minded and could give less than a hoot about anyone but making money. but, i no longer have the feeling that the elections are not going to happen ... a strong feeling i've had for the past 9 months.

its fun watching the jockeying for position ... for instance, i love what the new president in france is doing right now outside of the G7 organization ... that's really intriguing. the asian markets dropping tonight, i haven't looked into that yet, but i suspect some of the asian nations will follow the europeans and have a similar pow-wow, the question is are they going to do it within their 'nwo' organization ... asiana (?? or something like that), or separately? ... and then there's africa ... what's happening there is so transparent!

more than you wanted? LOL!

peace & harmony,
elaine
