    I mourn now for dear Hong Kong - just before we arrived by a few years they had had terrible typhoons and harbor storms - so much so that who ships had been washed up out of the harbor and into the streets!!

    now they fight for their lives of democracy - 1 million estimated to be on the streets protesting of giving over too much poor to China - this could be the line drawn in the sand?

    rocks and trees don't care about money, and humans are collectively narcissistic to think we have to own everything, or that the universe was created just to be our stage.

    HK is ultimately fighting /protesting about freedom and democracy - this is the first brick in the wall to be removed - more will follow - Russia and China are the two mega powers who believe democracy is wrong and people need to be controlled and managed without consultation for their own good! Make a list or just search on google of the most democratic to the least and see where they stand - myanmar isn't doing too crash hot either and we had so many hopes for the lady!!

    even fully democratized countries sometimes struggle - follow the amazing story of Australian Federal Police raiding the home of an ozzie journalist and riffling through her underwear cupboard without the knowledge of the PM - this strange story is still unfolding and is continuing at high level today - more to come later!

    HK NEWS - HK NEWS - HK NEWS - thousands of students - teenagers have stormed the parliament building and are preventing politicians from entering - police now using tear gas - this is so reminiscent of Tieneman Square incident it's very scary. These students are so brave and honourable but I do fear for their safety!

    they are now firing rubber bullets and tear gas at the crowds

    I do fear the worst - this is a mini repeat of Tienamen square massacre - I hope they can stop at rubber bullets and tear gas - once again the YOUNG are showing us elders the toad to take for freedom!!!

    i don't need demons and i don't need wars
    and i don't need folks who think peace is all snores

    come on folks, theres's mores and mores
    logic don't keep you from opening doors
    and there's more to life then just money and chores

    you can have all the gods if that's what you wants
    but they ain't no excuse for harassment and taunts

    we make the world that bits us on the ass
    and it don't give a shit about the gas that we pass

    heaven and hell are ours to make
    not some 'wait until after' kind of a fake

    hate makes hell and love makes heaven
    but what i mean's not somethin in the oven

    imagination is the name of the game
    it don't make growing older any kind of a shame

    tyranny comes when you hate your brother
    and if you hate truth, you blow your own cover

    sorry i'm not fitzy and that's as far as i got so far,
    i'd rather be about how to make it all good,
    then go down the bitter path of what we're doing wrong
    that is just too easy and too common

    lovely stuff themax - welcome - I've got tonnes of stuff some silly, some bad and perhaps some good - must try and dig them out of those pc files !! can I find one now??

    Us old Sages

    I must have reached the biblical score
    When she walked through that sparkling door
    She looked and smiled and I smiled back
    It was then I knew I had been ‘hacked’

    She asked me if we’d met before
    And I fell hook, line, sinker on the floor
    I offered her champagne on ice
    With tears she said ‘ you’re very nice’

    The room just vanished in a haze
    I’d become a man half crazed – half crazed
    We talked of places we’d both seen
    Yet had never met through lovers screen

    We lightly dined and talked so briefly
    And then she said so very neatly
    ‘I think it’s time to talk some more
    Perhaps behind a firm closed door?’

    I gulped and thought this can’t be true
    As we stepped in the ‘rising box’
    She gently nuzzled up real close
    And I could hear the ‘time bomb’ clock



    The key seemed to appear as from nowhere
    And it wasn’t in my hand for sure
    There was a rose scented glow that built up from real slow
    And I knew that I was through heavens door

    She beckoned me sit on the chaise lounge
    As she poured out more champagne on ice
    Then she pushed me real slow and I went with the flow
    And lay back thinking this could be nice!

    I must have closed both my eyes for a minute
    But it seemed hours had passed
    When I came to I was nude and felt that was plain rude
    To continue without being asked!

    But as she hovered around and behind me
    Her eyes had a way of making small talk
    Then she said time for bed, and like a lamb I was led
    To the slaughter I was religiously brought

    I lay on the bed like the 'bismark'
    all sails had been fully unfurled
    as I prepared to up anchor, she said " oh what a w....r"
    and flew atop of me with an 'albatross whirl'

    I confess I have tried may positions
    but never an 'albatross whirl'
    her arms turned to wings-I could hear angels sing
    as she nibbled my neck - what a girl

    she purred "be still my darling -I'll fix you"
    soon get back the wind in ya sails
    I must truly confess I was not feeling my best
    and my reasoning power had failed

    and then if struck by some lightning
    a thunderbolt pursed through my veins
    my eyeballs did spin - I felt like 'heavenly sin'
    I thought is this pleasure or pain?

    I closed up my eyes in exhaustion
    it seemed for a minute or two
    but when I awoke the morning had broke
    and the 'albatross' flown the coup

    there ya go see what ya did - inspired me!!

    ‘Common’ Routines

    The Buddhists tell a thousand tasks

    Will concentrate the mind

    Stay centred in your daily rhythms

    And never count the time


    It’s constant change bewilders

    Makes the ‘monkeys chatter’ louder

    Did God make mountains fall each day

    Volcanoes hourly prouder?


    Just let the day bring what it brings

    Adjust your seasonal timing

    Is ‘daylight’ measured by machines

    Does ‘night’ still need defining?


    The ancient sages warn us wise

    Don’t hurry through lifes other side

    The newborn leaps in spurts and bounds

    But only for a third of rounds


    We were given seasons to survive

    Not rush ahead and fantasize

    The farmer knows that rushing spoils

    And count the cost with useless toil


    So throw those time machines away

    And learn to pace another way

    By what the body needs in rest

    Let nature cure as it sees best

    © Fitz

    I once met a guy called Gummy Bear.
    He gave me kisses and stroked my hair
    Along came Pugsy and stole him away
    They stole my stockings, and that was OK
    But then they started to argue and fight
    Most of it over a load of Shite
    Then came the mod who wiped Gummy away
    I was so sad, on that very day
    I followed him to another place
    But we were naughty and got a slap on our face
    We struggled on come what may
    I think I found him, what can I say.
