A collection of things I wrote at work:

Oh captain morgan my captain
I sing the body electric
Two beer minimum
Amber fluid flowing
The lioness protects her cubs
Hyenas lurk chuckling in the dark
Thw whole jungle sings the song of 99 Bananas
Mix yr derangement with Pepsi
Vomit therapy

The train will not hesitate to slice you in half

A young cop stands in front of me in line at Wendy's
He eyes the buttons on my coat
I'm two parts Hunter Thompson and one part Malcolm X
I am within reach of his gun
A cool way to commit suicide
My friends would defend me saying I'd never hurt a fly
But my obituary would still say "insane dope fiend dies trying to steal cop's gun"
If I got busted I would use my one phone call to get alhold of Molly
I would tell her to call Carbon Particles and ask him if he could get ahold of any lawyers that would work for me pro-bono
Even if it was drug charges I think I could find someone for free especially if I say I'm an activist
Bail could be a problem
Bondsmen don't usually work for free

what can you do

I started reading a John Updike book but never could finish it. It didn't have references to snorting large amounts of mysterious white powders of wide open beavers in the first chapter. I find it hard to be entertained by anything that doesn't have sex, drugs and/or violence somehow involved. Pomo desensitization. Nothing shocks us anymore. I am also partial to authors that make liberal use of the so-called off-color vocabulary. Shit, fuck, dick, cunt, bitch, ass. I like the Scottish derivatives especially: shite and arse. Favorite authors: Hunter S. Thompson, Kurt Vonnegut, Chuck Palaniuk, Ken Kesey. Poets: Allen Ginsberg, Ken Rexroth

some blasphemy i didn't write at work:

(this one is also a song with melodies and accompaniments)

*Cletus Juniper*

Repulsive rabbi speaks in silent echoing voices
The disgusting delusions and dreams belonging to his beans
Trumpeter blows a fanfare
He speaks like a Siamese kitten with emphysema
Only in whispers does he speak
His gongs exploding all stages
And the disciples closely watching
His face red with the fury of the almighty
His pupils dialated in anticipation of heaven
He closes his eyes every time he says the word "belong"
Christ moved a mountain with a mustard seed in his mind
He just is doping and dreaming
He's so small he had to be a bitch in prison
Of those days he speaks quite frankly
He believes in the free expression of flatulation
His wife is polyamorous but he is celebate
He wears diamond rings on every finger
His toes beat out what the skin keeps trying to say
Jesus is a man and he lives in Montana

(untitled nonsense)

when I was younger I was poison
The sun was always out radiating joy
Banish stressful behavior
Seratonin reuptake inhibition
Noiseless machine makes everything okay
Angels came down and spun my head around
And when they were done I had lost direction
and was left with the inability to find god
I just play this dirty blues music
Beefed up with electronic steroids
Laughing at the hens with their eggs
and the roosters with their cocks
Going in guns ablaze
6-shooter in one hand
M-1 in the other
and Molotov Cocktails break spilling love all over the ground
To burn is the most selfless act
It ended the war in Vietnam
Eat the fireflies
A new meaning to smoking gun
Smelling like urine day after day




Anarchist stuff from other websites:

Does the Anarchist Cookbook really contain errors?
Yes. Lots of them. A classic error is the recipe for extracting the drug bananadine from banana peels. The flaw is that bananadine does not exist; it was mentioned in the March 1967 Berkeley Barb as a joke but the Anarchist Cookbook took it seriously.

Deregulating Drug Use
An Anarchist Perspective
BAD Broadside #1
The debate about drug use in this country is usually framed in terms of continued criminalization vs legalization. the positions in this debate mean continued harassment, including arrests, imprisonment, theft of property, and possibly in the near future, execution of drug dealers and users, vs legal regulation of drug use and sales, similar to that of alcohol and cigarettes, including heavy taxation, and restraints on where, when and to whom drugs can be sold. Both of these positions are based on the same assumption, government has the right to tell individuals what they can and cannot do. While legalization would surely be preferable to continued criminalization, there is a third alternative: decriminalization and deregulation. Decriminalization and deregulation of drugs would mean no laws against drugs, no government regulation of drugs sales and use, no arrests, no prisons, no taxes. Eliminating drug laws, instead of simply replacing them with different laws, would produce a free market in drugs where people would be free to sell, ingest, or inject whatever they wished, without government interference.

Drug use is a voluntary, non-violent activity, and should be an individual decision, the business of no one but the user. Government has taken it upon itself to regulate drug use, just as it regulates alcohol use, restricts abortion, and registers and drafts people. in order to better control people. Criminalization of drugs has produced, just as prohibition of alcohol did, an enormous amount of violent crime. Most of this crime is motivated by the need to obtain money to pay the artificially inflated price of illegal drugs. This drug-associated crime is then used as an excuse for police to indiscriminately harass young black men, stopping and searching, and frequently arresting them on the street, for no reason other than that they live in a "high crime" area. Doing away with drug laws would dramatically lower the cost of drugs and thereby eliminate most street crime, as well as remove the excuse police use to terrorize black people.

Decriminalization and deregulation and the resultant competitive market in drugs would produce purer and safer drugs, eliminating much of the death and illness associated with drug use, most of which is caused by contamination of drugs or needles, and unreliable drug strength, not by the nature of the drug itself. Heroin is no more dangerous than aspirin if it is carefully prepared without dangerous additives and injected with a sterile needles. And aspirin overdose can kill as easily as heroin overdose, it just takes longer and feels worse. Decriminalizing needle use would virtually eliminate the transmission of AIDS among IV drug users, as has been the experience in the 38 American states which do not restrict sale of sterile needles. Needle exchange programs are not enough; there need to be more needles available to eliminate needle sharing.

Besides abolishing laws against recreational drugs, eliminating government regulation of "therapeutic" drugs would also benefit people. The FDA prevents many drugs from reaching the market, including treatments for AIDS, cancer and other serious illnesses. And those that do eventually become available are delayed for years by FDA rules, while thousands die. The government is currently responsible for restrictions on aerosolized pentamidine, a drug which prevents Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. the most frequent cause of death in people who have AIDS. Just as drug laws lead to deaths associated with street drugs and keep people from obtaining sterile needles to prevent transmission of AIDS, drug laws are killing people with AIDS by denying them effective treatment. Drug laws in this country are also preventing marketing of newly developed abortifacients, drugs which induce abortion early in pregnancy, freeing women from their current reliance on the medical establishment for abortion services. these drugs would put the decision about abortion where it belongs: with the individual.

Eliminating drug laws would greatly increase people's options in the areas of pleasure and health. It would also reduce crime, reduce death and illness associated with illegal drug use, and reduce deaths from AIDS and other serious illnesses. Individuals should be free to make their own decisions about drug use, and all other aspects of their lives, without the interference of government or "the community".
