What more can be said: Trump greeting the major leaders of black college from behind his F**king desk. Please, body language 101 teaches one about the ego power one feels from behind a desk to deal with guests. And then, of course, (why am not surprised?) Trump wants to increase the military budget by 10 % which equates to 54 billion, certain federal (mostly social agencies if he has his way) paying the price. Will it ever be possible to eradicate greed and the misuse of power in the big house kept white and without flaw relative to architecture? Below is a quasi prosetry/article trying to express some reality. (Trump lovers needn’t read this non-fake reality)

BREAKING NEWS ad nausea
by Odin Roark
Perhaps, the safest place to be today,
if one keeps up with the headlines
featuring the tsunami of misplaced values
futilely attempting to mask its greed
with cries of victimization (the press is against me and are the “enemy of the people), is to never watch TV.
Even Bush took issue with that statement, saying: “the press is indispensable to democracy.”
How much more of this suit and tie-clad self-imposed suffering is it going to take before these children of the many-headed scourge change their ways?
For many, those that proffer that things (of material substance” are where legitimate value lives, where wealth is created), are missing the realization that real wealth actually comes from conquering the consequences of having too much material stuff one has earned through corruption and greed.
Of course…
In Trump’s mind, any who are unfortunate enough to experience such an epiphany and choose to exercise such inordinate symbols of wealth will more than likely
attract men and women with laboratory- styled white coats.
If, and when, they begin to list and encounter such realities by writing them down—with what to them will undoubtedly seem like quills of the 3rd kind—their shock might need calming from any and all the institutionalized mid-wife services available.
Birth is difficult, but rebirth requires the climbing back
through the delayed pain of adulthood reliving what was once
the sole province of our mothers.
Yeah, some serious growing up is called for.
Such is the state of the White House’s narcissistic, non-reality and disease-based notion of prosperity,
and dare I say “moral” consciousness.
54 billion to create more killing machines…Please.
Growing up, as I have often described, is leaving childish things like accumulating wealth behind for more altruistic activity like helping others less fortunate. Taking money from social services and growing the military is indeed, foolhardy and tragic.
