Americans Don’t Play Chess

Americans don’t play enough chessIt’s the reason we’re in this political messThe Right has carefully studied for yearsConstitutional weaknesses, racist fears They’ve put in long hours, learning the gameMotivating their base, pointing the blameSpinning problems as the fault of their foesScuttling each bill that would end those woes Like Morphy, Alekhine, Karpov, NimzowitschDangling carrots; a…

Most

Most stories don’t have happy endingsThe brutal truth is that most do notFor each hero who makes it home,In unknown ditches, a hundred more rot For every song about some brave champion,There are endless graves without any bonesFor there was no body which they could buryOnly lost names engraved on stones We must admit if we’re honest about it,Eventually, Death claims them allThose who we…

Remix - War On Venus

Remix – War On Venus

War on Venus – Original music by Magus

https://youtu.be/QsP_5L7_IBs

youtube

View On WordPress

I posted this song before, but I have entirely remixed it. The new mix sounds far superior to the original. I also shortened the title from “Tales of War On Venus” to “War on Venus.”

Something that I didn’t think to mention the first time I posted it: The guitar solo was first-take. I didn’t think I would keep it; I was only trying to get a check on the recording input level. But it just flowed out, and upon listening to it, I decided it was perfect just as it was.

Lyrics:

We sit, swapping war stories

We’ve barred all the windows and doors

Each of us covered in blood

Half of it mine, half of it yours

Two chairs, sitting face to face

The room is bare, otherwise

Suspiciously watching each other for

Sudden movements, any shift in the eyes

There’s a word for why we’re here

The trap, it fits us like a glove

Explains all the mess and the misery

And that four-letter word is love

Pause long enough to take a shot

From the big bottle of poison

We’re not much but we’re all that we’ve got

We sweat bullets and swear “You’re the one.

You’re the only one for me.”

Weapons at the ready, there in our laps

Fingers never far from the trigger

No one smiles, no one eats or sleeps

Shots of whiskey and resentment get bigger

It’s no mystery how or where

We both know who’s to blame, we insist

Each of us swearing that the other struck first

It was a case of love at first fist

There’s a word for why we’re here

This trap, it fits us like a glove

Explains all the mess and misery

And that four-letter word is love

capitulation of sounds

to the bender of rivers

orchestra of endorphins

sleek aurora of youth

killer of hurricanes

eater of oceans

full, satiated on the mead of foaming tides,

the grand molecular point maker

making infinite points;

each one, placed at

multiple infinite distances from the last

lovingly punching each rivet

of spiraling, heterocyclic trivia

into a silver tapestry of numbers,

formulas, calculations, divine maths

warm blankets of polynomials,

all preened and made ready

for your every passing desire

what fair fruits jumped regularly

into your waiting mouth

the summons of tinkling stars,

tiny strings of white bells

in the slow, sagging sky

all of this, and more,

so very much,

much more,

asking to be consumed,

to be the host wafer

for the transubstantiation

of all your sorrows into

a bright, crisp hope

immolation of self,

burnt offerings,

begging for your blessing

oh, that which

would have

that which

might have

that which fell into dark closets,

full of lost greeting cards,

gift bags, and taped storage boxes,

tied up with the twine of induced sleep,

the wine of balmy intentions

two-dimensional high diver,

tossing itself before the

street-sweeper’s stiff bristle teeth

and reminding it to chew

comes the brisk morrow in timely fashion

all that is wrought

steps forward to claim its due

all that is now,

stands on its head,

and will not bear questioning

My vehicle blew a head gasket. So, it's deader than that skunk you drove by for weeks, until the buzzards finally picked it completely clean. I'm raising money to get a used vehicle.

Thank you gifts: I do tarot and astrology readings. I can offer coupons on products at ConjureWork.com

I also have 10 books for sale on Amazon (9 poetry, 1 on prepping), original music (3 albums, see "Trent Boswell music" on YouTube). I send signed copies of books, or music downloads, or a physical copy of the Flagship CD.

Any amount is appreciated; shares of this post are too.

Why is a societal collapse virtually guaranteed? Because we can’t get people to even listen to each other’s ideas on even the most basic things, much less agree or compromise on them. I heard someone make a point the other day, it was someone who I’d guess that I’d probably disagree with 90% of their opinions on the issues. Yet, there was one thing that I had to admit was a really intelligent, hard to dismiss fact. But I have noticed that most people won’t hear even that one thing you say that they agree with. If you are “on the other side,” they tune out 100% of what you say, and then they seek to demonize you. When that happens, it means things are heading down a dark path. When people are preoccupied with trying to cut each other’s throats over the little things, the bigger, more important issues won’t get dealt with. That’s why it’s wise to take whatever steps you can to prepare yourself for a rough road ahead. I’d never suggest that anyone stop trying to make things better; please don’t stop trying. I’d say keep two things at the forefront of your mind: 1. Do everything you can to improve the world, listen with an open mind, and compromise wherever possible. 2. Realize that way too many people aren’t willing to do any of that. So, keep trying to be loving, kind, and good, but don’t be surprised if others don’t.

Basic Survival Prepping, over 500 pages of practical information about prepping, available on Amazon; search Basic Survival Prepping by Kevin Trent Boswell - prepping is not a political statement. Prepping doesn’t say, “I’m a Conservative [or Liberal].” Being a prepper doesn’t say, “I’m a Democrat [or a Republican].” Being a prepper says, “I’d prefer to die on my schedule, if at all possible. You be caught completely off guard if you want. I’d prefer to buy myself a fighting chance and a little more time.” #prepping #familyprepping #preppingforlife #preppers #prepper #doomsday #doomsdayprepper #doomsdaypreppers #doomsdayclock #climatechange #foodinsecurity #supplychain #prepared #preparedness #preparednotscared #ready #zombieapocalypse #preppinglikeaboss #preppercommunity #emergency #prepperfoodstorage #survivalfreaks #survival #survivor #survivalist #survive #survivalgear #survivaltricks #survivalskills #emergencypreparedness https://www.instagram.com/p/CeXLngCJZxf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Inside Job

Author’s Note: This one is a little more fun if you read it in Tony Soprano’s voice. I always defended my inner childEven when change, he’d slow or shuntI spoke to him softly, sweet and kindNever too harsh, rude, or blunt But his juvenile ways sabotage meConstantly force me to fall back and puntIt’s time for him to grow the hell upMy progress, the crybaby tries to stunt If I’m ever gonna get…
