It was patriotism, not communism, that inspired me.

I follow only one party: the Vietnamese party
The great victory of April 30 represents the triumph of the entire nation, of justice over brutality and of humanity over tyranny

Gen. Curtis LeMay,

Jingili Circumnavigated

  Reconfiguring the metaphor.  The world needs successful leaders.  They must want to achieve. To shift us from good to great. Forging ahead and getting around restrictions. Breaking national protections. Cutting the red tape. Warrantless access to our metadata. Shared across borders. Encroachments made to preserve prosperity. And maximizing returns. by reorganizing structures. To maintain productivity and continuous growth. A starting point. To be something that your opponent agrees with. Part of the agenda. To have a curious mind and an urge to make sense. As inflow. Being proper. Being skeptical.  In doubt. Knowing deterrence formulations.  A methodology.  Seeking that piece of information.

  Bark Hut Batwoman Simulacrum Northern Territory Gothic Shadows Poem Video Bark Hut Inn Bat Woman Arrives Brutally dispossessed. Placed onto a reserve. And promised rations.

  You can taste it in the air It is outer-worldly All alone Radical That night Walk out of the car  Feel special Sheer bliss Forget the narcissist leader Who persuades you through their exceptional talent The leader who elicits your secrets Who manipulates every situation you are in The leader who is beyond control Who will make you regret Idiots all of them Basking in their callous work Take a step outside Walk into the night And enjoy the uniqueness of life I have always believed in miracles My victory was expected I was one of those unpopular leaders But they voted me in I want to make you happy But I made a mess of it From this crisis to the next The smirk was killing me But I learned quite a lot I took command I took control I picked a direction and I went for it I became humorous I became frequent I became spontaneous They now know I care for them  They now know that I understand  I know what you are going through The predicted actions of leaders Who fall into helplessness Who b
