I was a long Haired Hippie Freak

Tell A Friend

I was a long-haired hippie freak
I made my living with the way I speak
Preached the word to the poor and meek
Havoc in the churches I did reek
From my side, my blood did leak
I guess they called me a terrorist

I had some radical ways
Living in a time of revolutionary frays
Spying on where the military stays
I did not regret my loss of days
Where they hung me, my body lays
I guess they called me a terrorist



I bombed at night for the F.F.I
Fighting the bastard N.A.Z.I
During my torture they made me cry
In a concentration camp I did die
Nobody knows where my ashes lie
I guess they called me a terrorist

I hear Bush say he is the man
First one was Iraq, next one's Iran
That's when the shit really hits the fan
And prove freedom not part of the plan
Better speak out while you can
It's OK if they call you a terrorist

 

I am an American peasant.

Avid reader, jazz musician, philosopher, chef, stone mason, carpenter, writer, painter, poet,humanist, teacher, holistic ethicist who believes consciousness and love pervade the universe, except among self-obsessed humans. I perceive the philosophical unified field to be consciousness and joy. The entire universe is composed of waves, which we surf by understanding.

don't let them get you this time

History shows why they crucified Jesus, why they exiled Galileo, why they had to blow up the Maine, and why they bombed Hiroshima.

Now more people than ever know that what they do is wrong. Not only bad acts but bad strategy. But they can't stand the light of day. They can't admit their crimes in public.

But we can witness their crimes and publish them. With computers we can follow every dishonest, murderous dollar. And it's inevitable. The truth will out and sooner or later, everybody will know everything they're trying to hide.

I am recently widowed. I am a writer, actress/director. I am addicted to Irish dance and belly dance. In practicing the latter I have been likened to Ethel Mertz dressed in Xmas tree lights.My passion is Human rights especially in the US and China where I inadvertantly became the " Jesus is back and she is a woman" prophetess. That is me. It is a long story and not without a certain dark humour.

days of wine

Those days  were a time of unbelieveable  innocence.  We believed  and  advocated a heady mixture of Gandhi and Marx. We believed it could make the world a just and fair utopia .  Heaven was not for an after life but was within our reach.

All God's Chillun got paid  a living wage. Justice was egalitarian an inalienable right. Beauty was in simplicity and we all believed our world was a life giving garden

We are now over 30 years  away from that world. We are a mear 7 years away from the dawning of the age of Aquarius. The world is at the brink of war.  But we old hippies have 7 years.

It might be close but I bet we will do it. Only this time we will follow through and not leave it to others to finish our journey to universal justice and  mercy.

 WE did it before and we can do it again.

Rules:

Signs, Signs, every where are signs which contain rules which negate free expression. Illiterate peasants are not good at expression without being able to sprinkle their vocabulary with the gutteral jibberish of the street. Besides I tire of reading the same prose in the same form with the same words and the same thought matrix, thusly I wax poetic. Thank you for your forbearance..
