“. . . America

Now it’s a monster and will not obey

The spirit was freedom and justice

And it’s keepers seem generous and kind

It’s leaders were to serve the country

But now they won’t pay it no mind

‘Cause the people grew fat and got lazy

And now their vote is a meaningless joke

They babble about law and order

But it’s just an echo of what they’re been told

Yeah, there’s a monster on the loose

It’s got our heads in a noose

And it just sits there watchin’

Our cities have turned into jungles

And corruption is strangling the land

The police force is watching the people

And the people just can’t understand

We don’t know how to mind our own business

‘Cause the whole world’s got to be just like us

Now we are fighting a war over there

No matter who’s the winner

We can’t pay the cost

‘Cause there’s a monster on the loose

It’s got our heads in a noose

And it just sits there watching

America where are you now?

Don’t you care about your sons and daughters?

Don’t you know we need you now

We can’t fight alone against the monster”

almost to the vacant garage a flipflop

another sixseven foot heist

flipflop  sock

                wasnt barefooted

What the fuck?

Yeah. He did joke that he liked to wear flipflops in the house because they tripped him and he liked to believe he was agile enough not to fall on his face.

That’s stupid. a third said

Yeah? Try it.

Have you?

pointed to his forehead a scar

Shaddup guys.

He won’t be in there. Pro job. Partial sketchy tire tracks other side of the building.

You think . .

You think we get bupkis?

Nada. Not a fuckin’ thing. Pros, man, pros.

   Maybe. Or maybe we find the other flipflop.

Maybe.

a lot of crap

amongst it this gem

                      “And a very special thank you to the extraordinary people of Milwaukee and the great state of Wisconsin for hosting this outstanding convention. And by the way, Wisconsin, we are spending over $200 million dollars here, creating jobs and other economic development all over the place – I hope you will remember this and give us your vote in November! We will Make Wisconsin Great Again, I promise.” 

he promises

a liar promises

well see if his campaign pays its security bills

another beaut

                “Less than four years ago, we were a great nation, and soon we will be a great nation again. With proper leadership, every disaster we are now enduring will be fixed – and fixed quickly.”

howbout four years ago he might have said five years ago if he and his speechwriters were smart

couldnt pinpoint July 18, 2020 although did find an interview with Robert Anderson, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) Mortality Statistics Chief

                                             “. . . the 385,000 deaths that we would refer to as ‘involving COVID-19.’ The other 34,000 would be death in which COVID-19 was a contributing factor but not the underlying case.”

COVID-19 exacerbated their existing diseases

a real charmer that would have Reagan playing with himself

                                                                 “We will replenish our military, and build an Iron Dome Missile Defense System to ensure that no enemy can strike our homeland (the Fatherland/das Vaterland) – and this great Iron Dome will all be MADE IN THE USA.”

OFFICE DEPOT

not an advertisement

OFFICIOUS DEPOT

why the hell would a corporation believe  theyd have to believenot think   believe acronyming itself as O D was smartsavvy

               was trying to imagine the sales pitch

Office Depot.  O D.  Get it?

he hoped someone their head not up their ass asked O D?  Overdose.

No. Of course not. You see overdose is a single word, it isn’t over dose, so we’re not  not implying   overdose, the one word. We’re trying to brighten the image, buff the tarnish, fix the pallor of O D.

   to be fair he hadnt been into an Office Depot in a very long time

it could be that it expanded its facility its faculty  as COSTCO had   which now sells Coffins and Caskets and Urns Oh My  Follow the yellow brick road.

could be

loyalty

    he hears that a lot

MAGAsters (MAGA + monsters) buffoons should prostrate themselves before “the Dear Leader”CHRIST

                                                                                                            give him a break

1953  Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry under the leadership of William Menninger met to discuss the psychological effects of loyalty oaths

“Considerations Regarding the Loyalty Oath as a Manifestation of Current Social Tension and Anxiety”

oaths were “only one manifestation in a growing general trend towards the enforcement of conformity of thinking and acting.” endangering the development of the ego  restricting access to “the object world” distorting the development of a “workable super-ego” by “emphasizing the external threat at the expense of self-responsibility” threatening “the ego-ideal appropriate to a free and democratic society by introducing increasingly contradictory ideals and by depreciating the image and model value of the teacher (academic theoretical pedagogy).”

“ego: part of psyche (human soul mind spirit) responsible for ones sense of self their ability to interact with the outside world

“super-ego: ethical component of the personality that provides moral standatrds bywhich the ego operates

“ego-ideal: the standards ideals ambitions according to the psychoanalytic (Freudian) theory are assimilated from the super-ego”

those are the cogs

                    now whether the followers could read or could understand those words were another matter

    he wasnt a betting man but FUCK  he was awfully tempted

loyalty = slavish devotion

former = sociopath

                     one who has no regard for right or wrong ignores the rights and feelings of others

former = narcissist*

                      succinctly its all about them

loyalists remind him of bugs  particularly ant society

ever double down

he knew two examples

first gambling  blackjack

                            someone seeing their initial card doubles their bet theyre required to take an additional card

second politics

                 politician errs

but rather than admit they are wrong they double down            

   he thinks Idiot Admit your wrong

                                        evidently some kind of sin Heaven will repulse them when they show at the Pearly Gates

he wasnt going

even though he could admit when he was wrong

wasnt a character flaw

without it actually being said he witnessed double down

                                                              it was adamant

there was no money at stake

thought they were playing for fun playing pool   Eight ball 

he teamed up with his nephews wife against his nephew and brother-in-law

Man his brother-in-law said  We’re handing you your ass.

he chuckledthought machismo in jest  despite knowing his brother-in-law believed everything a competition

he competed in athletics in college

long after recognising he couldnt compete as he once did despite still wanting to he stepped away 

that was sane

given that definition 

his brother-in-law was insane

they were ahead  had but one ball remaining before they could shoot on the Eight

his nephew sank the Eight  lost

he said So lets switch up teams youth versus age

No.

     guess who

Bullshit. We’re keeping teams as is. fuckin grimacebad taste in his mouth We’re going to kick your ass.

his nephews wife was slender  fit   no ass

he certainly hadnt ass

                         Comon Lets switch it up

NO.  

he cleared his throat

                       I hope were aware that without being said  this is doubling down

Senseless he snarled  We’re beating you senseless.

his nephew sank the Eight again  lost the game

                                                     so much for doubling down

seemed to him  baked in the cake
