About Me

Watch out - I've been learning to sing Bruce Dickinson and Ronnie James Dio....The end is near...

.WE WILL NOT BE CHIPPED!!!! .
Cut myself open wide....
Reach inside.... help yourself.... to all I have to give and then.....
you help yourself again.... and then complain.... that you didn't like the way I....
put the knife in wrong.... you didn't like the way my.....
blood spilled on your brand new floor.... What would you say... If I walked away?... Would you appreciate?.....
But then it'd be too late...
Cuz I can only take so much of your ungrateful ways....
Everything is never enough....
Sometimes... A view from sinless eyes.... centers our perspectives... and pacifies our cries....
Sometimes, the anguish we survive... and the mysteries we nurture..... are the fabrics of our lives...
Swept away in the tide... Through the holes in my hands... Crown of thorns at my side... drawing lines in the sand....
I'm damned cuz I doubt, it's part of me.. trick of the mind - schyzo, you see...
Just a struggling artist, posing as a handyman.
Tries to make enough to live... while attempting to repair the damage in his wake. The man inside is onstage, screaming for you to listen and heed the words in the song, warning you to run for your lives and fall to your knees... He doesn't care about money or fame... He's too busy watching the world fall apart around him as people fight to keep their normal lives, surrounded by chaos, terror and a one-world government, efficiently wrestling soveriegnty, power and great riches from the great superpowers.... determined and destined to take mankind and earth itself, under ultimate technological, financial, cultural and psychological control.
He'll sing Rock & Roll, cause that's the rhythm inside, but the message behind the music is what catches his eye... gleaming on the horizon - beckoning him like a moth to a flame....
I sincerely hope you find something here that you can take with you on your journey through this place. My purpose is to point you towards things that matter. There, you can find peace - albeit maybe in the future - where things last forever. Focus now....
About me? Well... Accused of subterfuge, treason and refusing to comply with common consensus regarding the acceptance of human tracking RFID systems (legally) implanted for the "safety and protection" of humanity on a global scale. Also accused of software piracy, questionable lyrics, public dissent and spiritual malfeasance, among many lesser crimes against the machine..............................
YES... I AM....
BUT THEN....
Sure,
it hurts when you slap me in the face (figuratively).
Physically, the pain lasts only a short while. But inside, it may never be the same between you and me. Not that I want it that way. The change must come from you. I have already forgiven you, realizing that you lash out from hurt, fear or pain of your own. But it causes an emotional distance and spiritual valley between us. While you may make light of this, don't make the mistake of thinking that my aim is of no consequence. It was just as sure to come into existence (even in the belly of the beast). as the enemy was to deal death and hatred to mankind, poisoning their brainwashed minds.
By the way.... Sorry Ozzy, but I DO know... even if you don't....
so go ahead and ask me.. just don't blame me when the revelation blows your mind and you run away screaming in horror at what you learn...
I did not request asylum or citizenship here. I had no choice but to be born here, programmed from the start to contribute to the building of the great Beast, to blindly follow the system without second thought. To put my effort into my small, little life's needs: Job, Bills, and so on....
I beg your pardon......
Are you the boss of me? You tell me what I should do and in turn you tune me out whenever my passionate beliefs come to light. You would have me put it under a barrell. Tucked away where the light cannot shine upon the waywardness of our ways. Then I am to befriend you? Yeah, sure.
Instead, I'll smile and I'll learn to pretend - and I'll never be open again - and I'll have no more dreams to defend -
and I'll carry on, the best that I can without you here beside me................
Let Him come take me home........
Joy comes in the morning", after we have gone through the darkest of nights. It is found in the midst of pain, where life and hope come out of suffering and loss. Like the Phoenix, rising from the ashes, purified and rejuvinated... having left the former things and beginning anew.
Hit the ground running..... and devour what could be our last day, as the ferocious lion tears into his prey..... with reckless abandon.... freedom in passion - a sword, flawlessly wielded. Carving out your destiny, you rush headlong into the fray.....
