In times past poets evoked emotions by summoning images from Nature. One of the better known such examples comes from the German poet Goethe and his poem “ Kennst du das Land https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMe22tHvG4c ” (Do you know the land?) Today such bonds with nature have vanished and have been replaced with the sensitivities of a homo-gentrified urban class which is out of touch with Nature in extremis. The shift away from wood and field happened so suddenly, unexpectedly, even unexplainably, that the replacement became known as ‘confessional’ poetry’. One reason for naming the shift away from Nature with such a curious name (Wm. Blake renamed the shifting time as of “dark Satanic Mills” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_did_those_feet_in_ancient_time ) was that with Nature removed as a reference, all that was left was one’s inner emotional life, often nakedly sexual in nature. An active voice in the transfer of the past into the present “dark” age was the American poet Walt Whitman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walt_Whitman with his justly famous collection of poems called “Leaves of Grass”. A hundred years later Whitman was succeeded by Robert Lowell, with “Skunk Hour” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSlcc2b02yc being his most often quoted poem.

Surealy enough this poet’s brief entanglement with the author of “Life Studies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_Studies ” (at Boston University 1957-1958) has lingered to bring forth (2019) “The Life Review of Robin Ludd”



Canto 1. How It Began

F
irst
A definition
Of ’fuck’
As in fucked up
As if by some magic
By beings as if
Out of cyberspace
Then discarded
As mere meat
Or piece of fat
Or carion
”For the birds”

A phrase
Often used
For the useless
And superfluous
(Orphans
Children
Peasants
And other deplorables)
No one knows
What to do with

All the same
An expression
Of a stuborn
Sovereign
And resilient ‘I am’.

I
 was fucked up for
The second time
So to speak

By
My desperate
And by war
Turned
Hysterical
And mindless
Mother
When she
(Having taken
No interest
In my father’s
Family history)
Made love to
The young soldier
Of a German
Post Office troop
A leutnant who
of some priviledged German family
Too,
Was seeking to escape
the malodorous winds
Of war and slaughter
As desperately she was.

The only escape
Without
Being shot
By globe trotting
Crusading
Christian governments
(Of which
Hitler’s was one)

Or by
Scared
To death
Military officers
Hung by
Fake elites
Or military police

Was to forget war
And fuck

And for
the abandoned
Luddies*
*Luddies https://www.history.com/news/who-were-the-luddites --is an old name that preceeds and has now been replaced by the word ‘people’. It was last used in the English speaking world when so-called Luddites took on the English Lords and Nouveau riche. The word remains in use in the german language as ‘Leute’, in Russian as ‘liudi’ (люди), in Latvian as ‘ļaudis’ (lyaudis), and in such names as Ludwig, Ludis, possibly even in place names such as London (Londinium), Luzon, etc. Robin Ludd (a symbolic name for the last of England’s people of the wood) had his last name changed to ‘Hood’, meaning thief. Not surprisingly Robin dies at the hand of fake Christians https://www.awesomestories.com/asset/view/Robin-Hood-Death-at-the-Priory-Gatehouse  .
To
‘Make love’
Such as the folk called
”Tearing the skin
Off the wire”
Then use the wire
To bruise, sext,
Masturbate
With porn
An entire millenium.

Fortunately
Fritz’s and Manya’s
Need for love

Fucked-up
No children
Only brusing
Memories.

    That was
    Seventy-five years ago
    In 1944
    Toward the end of
    WW2.

The officer was young
My mother was young
I was a bor growing.

    I saw
    But did not yet
Understand
    what I saw.

    Life in the countryside
    Herding cows
and sheep
    had kept me naive:

Standing in warm cow pie
In a frost covered medow
Warming my bare feet
Was my definition
Of reality.

At that time
I still believed
Father was alive and
Would somehow
Survive
And return from
Astrakhan
Or Whereever.

I screamed for him
Tantrums of prayers
When alone.

No Buddha
Or Beatle
Could ever
Convince me
Life levitates
On fantasy or dream,
Or some witless
Latvian author’s
Need for notoriety.*
*There have been numerous, government sponsored efforts (story, book, and theatre) in PostSovietLatvia to eliminate the achievements and contribution of my paternal grandfather and his forebears in the creation of this country. Whether this is the policy of the CIA’s ‘renewed’ Latvian government, or the death wish of half-dead community (the PostSoviet government has for all practical purposes eliminated literature, criticism, intellect, and what used to be called Latvian culture) ledt rotting behind a Potemkin Village facade https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potemkin_village  --only the future will reveal in full.
    I did not now
Then
    That in his youth
    Father had been
A Cityzen*
*The poet uses the word ‘cityzen’ instead of ‘citizen’ to more clearly indicate the difference of one from the other.
Of tsarist Russia
Which fact
Turned him
    Into a robot
(A derivative human)
    Of government,
 (For which fact the tsar and his family, were shot)
    It was a time
when no boy’s father
Mine including
Could ever have been
Someone
who could
Have fucked me up
For the fun of it
Without forethought.

I did not believe
I was of
A joke.

The joke was
    Father
Was already dead
A bullet on the 13th of April, 1942
Through his head
Pants full of shit
Compliments of
Diarreah
Brought up to the deck
in buckets
Of water
Which in one swell swoop
Dumped the shit
Of Stalin’s victims
Into the Volga
Then drew drink
To slake the thirst
Of haggard toutists
Destined
to be boarded
At Astrakhan’s
Little Kremlin

Neither father
Nor I
Knew that
Our woman in common
Left be on a farm
In a government sponsored
God forsaken land

By the grace of God
(or Chance)
Was fucking
A stranger
To (perhaps)
Save her
And her brood’s life.

Which is whyfore
This epic
Of a survivor
Aged 86 now.

Mother’s behavior
In front of the farm’s
Household*
*The poet’s aunt Emma (the owner of the ‘Sokleni’ farm in the Latvian countryside) was the youngest sister of the poet’s grandmother (who was born on the very farm). The poet’s mother, concussed by events, let herself to forget this, when she began her catastrophic affair before the very eyes of the poet’s father’s relatives. For aunt Emma the humiliation was endured silently, but with deadly effect, that in order not to open her mouth in an involuntary scream, aunt Emma closed her mouth—there and then—forever, ruling out the poet ever learning the content of her memories,
    Compelled
    Her Wehrmacht lover
    (Embarrassed by inuendo)
    To make
Place
    On the Wehrmacht truck
    Next to sacks of mail
For mother, me, and
Sister and brother.

    Even as I
    An incomprehending witness
    That same evening
    With anti-aircraft shells
Exploding
Over the Koknese
Railroad station
    Saw them meet
To do
    Whatever it was
    They did
    From the other end
    Of the hay loft
    Above the garage
Next to
The railway tracks.

By some
Thanks
For ever not known
To who
Or fear induced caution
We escaped death.

That was
The best I can
Determin
On August 20,
(Click on picture with truck to enlarge. Examine  closely.)

In my stead,
Our white gelding,
Yoked to the wagon
(The household
Left house in
The middle of
A brutal counter offensive
A day after
We were gone)
Max
(His white neck
Shredded by bullets)
Was killed
By a Soviet plane
Strafing
The country road.

Mother acknowledged
Her sins
On her deathbed
Telling the poet
In a whisper:
”I have forgiven God.”

For years thereafter
Above us
”a mute heaven stretched”
And ”a very mute
Mute field of flowers bloomed”
Lyrics from a poem by the Latvian poet J. Peters

It took years
For me to grasp
And scrape out of
The compressed
Pitch of painted over
Memories
That dead, too,
By the hand of
Her once husband’s
Much facelifted
Second wife
Intrigue Galore
Was aunt Emma’s
Older sister,
My grandmother
Madeline.

Of course,
The murder
Is hearsay
Nothing special
Moreoverd
In hindsight

But etched on
A slate of memories
By half forgotten
Subtle murmurings
And muzz-muzzs
in the ears
Of a curious boy
Who like the sheepdog
Who
Chased after the truck
That took his flock
To the abattoir.
Finds comfort
In the stench of
Bubbles gurgling
Calls for ”Help!”
From someone
Serving a government
Sunk
As a forgotten
Llegendary castle
To the bottom
Of Latvia’s
Lake Sewer.



2 The Story of Grandmother

Only the Sun
Knows the day
Or whyfors

Her fishermen
Forebears left
Or were taken
And were oared
Perhaps as
Prisoners of war
Slaves
Or fuck flesh
To the north
Of the Caspian Sea
The Volga delta

Where they whiled
in Astrakhan
Fishing for sturgeon
Then were took up
The besconechnyendless
Volga

Where they portaged
To the JaunavaDaugava
A River that flows
To the Baltic Sea
Through an
Ice-scoured land
Still rising
Out of the sea
Bringing forth land
For a country
Now known
As Latvia

Where they were took
To a pirates
Roma
Home for a nest of thieves
Like Troy where
Helen was raped
Then had her body
Dresses in a weighted net
Which was cast as food
For Baltic eels

Luckily
Some of the fuck flesh
Escaped
Or was sold
To Gherman*
Skinners of leather
At Sheepshead*
A city
Called Jelgava
Today
*’German’ is a name with a complex history, one that derives from the word ‘gher’, which means sheep https://www.iwto.org/history-sheep and is related to ‘yurt’, which is a transportable home among nomads cum herders in Central Asia. It is likely that this is whence the German tribes that long ago migrated to Turkey, then went even further West and occupied much of Europe. Interestingly ‘yurt’ translates as ‘yehrs’, which word means sheep in Latvian; and echoes as ‘yarn’ in English. The Latvian city of Jelgava may derive from a composite word, re: Jehr/ gher (or jehl)+galva = (raw +head of lamb), which may be visualized as a skinned head of just slaughtrred lamb. Today the word ‘gher’ also stands for fish or prawn ponds in Bangladesh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBvnbYgheDg, perhaps in remembrance that the name once stood for a pen for a flok of sheep in the steppes of Central Asia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dq4bOmxKVQQ . It may be yhat overgrazing of the steppes  contributed to the erosion and desertification of Central Asia in the same manner it later  occurred in Spain.
Which city lies
But 30 miles south
Of Riga
Which is why
When the wind
Blew north
Riga
(The retching leech
Of anorexed Latvia)
Stank
As only
A curse
Sent by a Kriv
The clubfoot priest*
Of Ludds*
*Grimm’s Law https://www.britannica.com/topic/Grimms-law  of consonant shifts enables one to translate ‘Krīv’, an Old Prussian name for priest, as ‘Clib’ (limp) and ‘Lud’ as ‘Rod’ or ‘Rus’
Could make it stink.

By pretending
To be charcoal burners
The Iranian yarii-yahns broke
From their captors
And tracked up
The CharcoalOgre River
To Where it
Intersected
the Charcoal road
that led to
The oven’s
Open and deadly maw
of Riga.*
*The reputation of Riga as the hangman’s home was expressed in a dangerous and potentially deadly game among schoolboys, in which the strongest boy asked some smaller classmate: “Do you wish to see Riga?” then took the head of the classmate between his hands and thus dangling him lifted the boy off the ground.
The Caspian natives
Then changed
Their name
From Gorgan
To Yuryan
And hid
In the woods
As alive
With refugees
From Jersey*Jerusalem
*Jersey-Jersika used to be the only kingdom on the land of what is now Latvia. The kingdom was destroyed and its temple and castle raised about 1209 by Bishop Albert of Riga, who led the northeastern branch of the two pronged Albigensian Crusade.

Most students of history know the Crusade as one against the Cathars of Occitan https://www.google.com/search?clienst=firefox-b-d&q=albigensian+crusade  , which is part of southern France today. The poet contends that the Crusade was a coordinated attack against the remnants of archChristianity in southern and northeastern Europe. The poet assumes that Christianity existed in northeastern Europe for many years before it was destroyed by globalist oriented Christinity led by Catholic priests of the Holy Roman Empire https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Maps_of_the_territories_of_the_Holy_Roman_Empire#/media/File:HRR_1400.png  forned by Gherman princes and their siblings cum bishops. When the poet’s forebears came to the region (about 1729), they found a forest people who had a receptive ear for their message of a Kingdom led by King John, aka Jesus.

Unfortunately, the Lutherans (holders to Catholic theology) instigated a campaign of genocide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXL9VG6GoLU&t=950s  against them, and by today King John in Latvia has been killed by city Zionists as effectively as king John by the Magna Hartists in England. The victims today are no longer only the Moravian Herrnhuters and their descendants, but the entirety of the Latvian people of countryside origin.
As Birnam wood was
Once come to Dunsinane

It was
Where the eternal wood
Makes memory
Stand still and
Unnecessary
They awoke from
Dreams
Of blueberry blossoms
Turning into
Blueberry tulips
Spilling the coal
Of their flaming cups
Over Riga.

It was here
My grandmother
(nee YuriYan)
Met my grandfather.

My father
Born 1892
Was the second
Of their five children.

In later years
A whore’s whim
Again entangled
Father’s life
With Astrakhan’s
    Swamps and sands

    But it was not
To be
    A thousand year
Roundtrip to Iran.

    It ended
    Where the waters
    Of the Volga delta
Feed the last
Of the primordial
River’s sturgeons

Though editor in chief
Of Latvia’s
Premier newspaper
Father never issued
A
Mayday Mayday Mayday
Issue
To the nation
As he was blocked
*What with the participants in the event of Latvia’s occupation and annexation to the Soviet Union by now dead, the books that ought have been written about the event are no longer possible. Any such attempt is blocked by the ongoing incorporation of the Baltic States into the European Union (EU), which is projected (if no untoward obstacles occur) to become a federalized State asap. Nevertheless, reconstructions, such as this poem, remain possible. Because the publisher of Jaunākās Ziņas (JZ) was Intrigue, who ever so subtly projected herself as the mistress of then Latvia’s president K. UKlmanis, father had no authotity to project his view on the matter. He was forced—at the peril of being fired (a second time)—to publish Intrigu’s and the Ulmanis government’s position. When father appealed to Intrigue to help him escape from Latvia, she refused him, though she knew of his service in the White army during the Soviet Revolution and that this could have lethal consequences. Father’s visit with Intrigue is mentioned by Rolands Ozols, formerly editor of JZ, in his book “The Story of A Last Mohican.” In hindsight, father ought have issued a clandestine Mayday edition, but apparently he did not wish to  be the one who initiated an armed conlict with the Soviet Union when he was unable to secure for his family a place to hide abroad. When the poet’s nanny of Baltic-German extraction offered to take him with her to Germany, father refused to make of him an exception vis a vis the rest of the family.
By his nemesis
Intrigue
In service of
The Latvian version
Of the ‘Mafia State’*

Given mother’s
Lack of interest
In matters of intellect
Evcouraged by her father
The poet’s siblings
Nephews and nices
Neither suspected
Or knew anything of
The true events
But like
most Latvians today
when hearing of events
not fit for
a  crystal cage
know to say only

“I beg your pardon
What did you say?
That issimply dreadful.
We never heard of
Such events before.”

Grandmothe’s
Great grandchildren
Much prefer
The book about Intrigue
Sponsored by
Latvia’s Kulture Fund
A transparently shitty
Whitewash job
Of reasons for Intrigue’s
Numerous facelifts
(Never mentioned)

What?
Our great grandmother
Dead by poison?
No suspicion there that
History has been
Betrayed

Who are you
But a shepherd
A dog
Whose loyalty
Has gone mad?

Who has not heard
Of mercy killing
Mad dogs and Englishmen?

Perhaps grandfather
Too, was
Such a dog
Chasing down
History’s highway
100 years of
Forgotten deeds
Destined like sheep
for the abattoir?

Grandfather may have
Imagined himself
A Rothschild
with dreams of
Founding John’sland
In Livonia.

Alas!
Rothschild was
Far ahead
And God lost His bet
With the Devil
Who
If need be
Was prepared
To wait endlessly

Grandmother understood
That her God’s fool
For a husband
Was outsmarting himself
By believing
God would
Cause Intrigue Galore*
(In return
For him rescuing her
From marriage
To a failed actor)
Let him exploit
Her greediness
By turning  into
One of God’s daughters

Surely not
a notion
Worth attention

All the same,
Grandfather’s faith
In Jesus
Gave him the will
To sadle himself
With a lamb’s courage
And play the fool.

So much for
The consequences
Of repression
Of a belief
That fears no poverty
And plays
The fool
Playing
Who am I
To be more?

Father left it
To me
To shake the sieve
And discover
In its debri
Unthinkable second thoughts.

What killed grandmother?
   
Was it
Poison made of
The Devil’s smirk
That stopped
Her heart
And ripped
Bridal veils
Cum maiden heads
Became crowns
Of roses
Off the heads of
Floundering orphans?

The murders created
Farflung
Unimaginable
Chaos
Misery, strife
And confusion

Yet fate contracted
That
Intrigue
Died a martyr’s death
By which
She let herself
Be imagined
A Saint
To those who
Benefitted from
The murders.

No disputing
The Devil played his hand
Better than
God or Faust

    Every one was
    Preoccupied
With saving themselves
No one had time
To think
‘Heart attack’ spells
‘Murder’.

As for the question:
Did St. Intrigue kill
Grandfather, too?

The evidence?

Time came
Grandfather wanted
To divorce her
    Claiming she
More than tickled
His sack
But by making
A politician’s
Jack jack*
Had made Latvia’s
President’s her gigolo*.
*A book http://www.sievietespasaule.lv/literatura/gramatu_klubins/atsauksmes_par_mila_benjamina/ by a Latvian writer, sponsored by Latvia’s culture Fund Kultūras Fonds , claims that Intrigue enjoyed liaisons with policemen (?bondage, flagelation, BDSM?). This suggests Intrigue was suffering from sadomasochistic tendencies, fantasies, and sexual abuse in childhood. Published in 2005, it was the most widely read book in Latvia in 2006. While the book’s author did some rearch, accurate information is wanting. With absence of research into the background of the poet’s grandfather (Intrigue’s 2nd husband), foregoing any interviews with his direct descendants, and completely ignoring Latvia’s history before WW1. Indeed, the book is a fake from cover to cover. Sadly, the book was published and sloshed into the public arena with the support of the Kultural Fond Valsts Kultūrkapitāla fonds of the state of Latvia. Since such support was revealed only after the book was published, it is reasonable to suspect that the post Soviet State of Latvia had its ‘good’ reasons for hifing its sponsorship. It tells much about the nature of the post Soviet NATO  propped pseudo ‘Baltic’ nation.

When grandfather
Asked advice,
Of a  Justice
Of Latvia’s Supreme Court*
(*M. Chakste, the poet’s Godfather.was the son of Latvia’s first president, and an opponent of K. Ulmanis)
He was told,
Mr. Wendamenc:
“You are out
Of luck.
It was you who
To Mephistophele’s delight
played Faust
It was you who
Let yourself
Be enchanted
By Intrigue’s pussy
And
By allowing her
To become publisher
Sheared yourself
Of your golden fleece

A divorce will
Shear your family, too.

It will take
Lawyers from South Africa
And Canada
(1963 see CSC Dossier9942)
To rescue them
From poverty.”

    Grandfather Faust
Died
With Gretchen
Stuffing his tail
In his mouth.

It was too late
    To return to the wood.

    Faust left it
For his grandson
To discover

How Stalin
Came to claim
the Devil’s receipt.

When St. Intrigue
Wanted to flee Latvia
with her gigolo
In tow
To go live
In her Swiss villa
Naught cane of

The dream to
Become Latvia’s 
Queen in exile.

When death threats
Issued by the na-ludds
Reached my father
By report of
A delegation of messengers
Of editors and writers
Including Skalbe
Still loyal to grandfather
*Event is described by Jānis Kārkliņs in his book, re: “Preses Karalis” https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2039331.J_nis_K_rkli_

He went to Intrigue
Hat in hand
And was told:

“Get lost
I have my stepson
George
To take care of.”

    When father responded
“But are you not
Also   Godmother
To my son?”

Intrigue laughed
“Don’t be naïve!”

“Your mother
Would make me
(A well-reamed woman)
A virgin yet
For another eighteen years
(Such were  the divorce laws of the day).
By not giving
Her Lamb’s arse
A divorce

“It is Creon
My sister’s son
Who I chose
To endow with
My benefice.”

    Creon will have.
    Yours will not.

    Your mother go fuck
Ghosts in the wood
    May you all
Die there.

You still have
That piece of land
Have you not?
Where
On Midsummer’s Eve
Boys go
Count the haystacks
With ladders
Drawn up
Then stand below
And whack off
listening
To cries of ecstasy
Up top?

Intrigue’s ridicule
Was prophecy
For a July day
When

Mother climbed
The ladder
And fucked me
And father
For the love
Of a soldier.

Grandmother
Silenced
By a murder
No one dared imagine
Looked on
From above
Incredulous
And sang hymns
To the glories
Of the crumbs
On the grid
Of her grandson’s
Sieve of memories.*
*Intrigue Galore had two sisters. Both—like herself—were ensconced in the world of theatre. Of the three sisters Intrigue had made the least successful of choices, but with her body at 33 yo still in bloom, and seeking rescue from a ‘dead end’ actor husband, the deep end of the wardrobe room was the perfect place to touch mens balls, when pretending, she was unable to find their coat, she had them come find it for themselves. Grandfather, a newspaper editor and budding playwright, came to visit Intrigue several times, because he was seeking an outlet for “Miglā”/In A Fog, a How to do-it-for-yourself play, he had written. The play argued how by giving up alcohol (a plague in Latvia to this day), one could come to prosperity. The Saint working in the wardrobe of Riga’s New Theatre (founded 1902) introduced grandfather, 44 yo at the time, to the powers that be in the world of theatre. Unfortunately grandfather’s play was too populist for Riga’s  ghermanized Latvians who preferred Riga’s version of Wagner’s http://www.anothertravelguide.com/destinations/europe/latvia/riga/routes/routes/wagner_-_a_riga_legend   then trendy grand opera style. In short, J. Rainis https://runa.lnb.lv/64418/   , a Latvian poet and playwright of the Wagnerian ethos, suited the Latvians of the city better. The gulf that separated J. Rainis from grandfather is a goof illustration of the gulf that separated the ghermanized and citified Riga Latvians from those living in the countryside. J. Rainis and his Bolshevik brother in law, Peter Stuchka https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C4%93teris_Stu%C4%8Dka   were part of the Zeitgeist later shared in also by Joseph Stlin.



3 The Story of Grandfather

After the Vikings
Known in Latvia as
Zviedri cum
Sviedri, the Sweats
Sveriges
From ‘Svarīgie’
The ‘importants’

Failed to subdue
The Ludds*
*Ludd is an old name for ‘people’. Robin Hood, first most likely known as Robin Ludd, was someone the  English noblēs sought by all means to eliminate from public memory. Even so it was remembered by the Luddites https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite . English textile workers, when they rose against the English industrialist class, which (still under the control of the nobility) was trying to eliminte them by introducing a society dominated by mashines. Aided by Grimm’s Law regarding consonant pronunciation, the name remains imbedded in words and names no longer recognized as to their origin; for example  (L=R, J-D): Rude=Lude, possibly also ‘Jude’, Reddy=Luddy,.etc.
Whether of Russian
Or Balt origin
The survivors
Of Sweddish carnage
whether militart or
scarring
By slash, burn
And then sweep floor
And steam
Brain
Until out of memory
The Ludds
Would not leave
The wood.*
*As the links (above) inform, the Elites of the Swedes were—as their Gherman cousins—masters at impoverishing the people under their control, then persuading the needy to help further their conquests to betray their own. The ‘forest Finns’ impoverished by enslavement to the Scandinavians wrought great damage not only to America, but throughout Eurasia, and the Eastern Baltic. The culture of agriculture, a culture that benefits mostly the Elites, emerged from what previously had been a gatherer and gardening culture. Hunting was nowhere near the proportions today’s academic anthropologists try tell us. It was limited to need for warm scothing and shoes. Agriculture encouraged the development of towns and cities., becausr it was easier to trade grain than wood. It increased hunting to the point it became outright slaughter of wild life, enslaved people to traders, ‘business’ men, various types of lords, barons, and, ultimately, to Capitalism. The Swedders made a ‘great contribution’ to the transformation of humankind into a beast (Godzilla https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B12REtkl2KY ) of city fame. As  terrible  as the immediate effects were, the worst part was the spread of agriculture, an industry that enslaved the countryside to the city. Ethnic cleansing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnadenhutten_massacre , like the masacre of the Gnadenhutten Christian Indians of Ohio who had been converted to the Christian faith by Moravian missionaries (many of whom came to America after their repression in Livonia) is directly attributable to the cynicism of Swedish elites. In 1921, the German arms manufacturer Krupp AG purchased the Bofors Company of Sweden, which sold arms and munitions to Hitler’s Germany during WW2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krupp  

Following the trauma wrought by the Swedes and their Ghermanic allies, which injury had forced a forest based civilization to occupy and exploit the forest for all their needs. One may argue that the ‘’forest Finns’ were a precursors of  Stalinism. In any case, the Balts of Livonia were hard to convince to leave their refuge of last resort. It took the likes of the Moravians and other Hutterite https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutterites influenced Christians to persuade them to leave the forest and try to form their own Johnsland cum Gotland (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotland note the Moravian ‘coat of arms’). Unfortunately, they soon met with as like genocidal cleansing at the hands of Lutheran catholic theologians as the Gnadenhutten Indians had in Ohio, America. Today’s Latvian government not only fails to acknowledge that future generations of Latvians built on such pietist foundations, and that the sovereign state of Latvia (founded in 1918 and betrayed by NATO installed post Soviet provincial Latvian government in 2014), but cynically does all  it can to deny its history altogether. Well, so much for the Professional art of lying and—with the help of law—sticking with it, re: the profession of diplomacy.

*(Lyrics by Imants Ziedonis: ”Šī Dieva zeme.../ Par verga algu es tajā sirgšu,/ Par indes malku es viņu pirkšu....” Fragmentary translation by the aauthor:)
If Gotland

I will gladly live

Karl Hansel Ulman
Who let the people

So he and she
Could live*.
*K. Ulmanis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C4%81rlis_Ulmanis  was the President of Latvia, when the Soviet Union occupied the country. Ulmanis seized Latvia’s government reigns in a coup in May of 1934. The coup was surely justified, because ‘democracy’ has brought social and economic chaos. However, Ulmanis did not demonstrate that his coup was based on some special conviction about the destiny of the State of Latvia or her people. Instead, Ulmanis proved himself to have been an all too naked clerk of a nascent state’s bureaucracy, when he surrendered to the Soviets, excusing the surrender by claiming Latvia  was too small and weak to offer resistance and engage in an ”unwinnable war”.

Unlike Hitler, who pretended to take responibility for his reign by committing suicide (real or fake—no one knows for sure), Ulmanis agreed to Exchange his presidency for an agronomer’s post at a kolkhoz in Stavropol, Russia. He also abandoned his ‘actress’ concubine, who served as cover to his homosexuality, and with whom he planned his life in exile in Switzerland. Ulmanis’s cowardice and forfeiture of responsibility left the Latvian people with an inferiority complex that has led the current ‘renewed’ state to an illigal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVKGSGWTcw4  surrender of sovereignty to the European Union, the latest incarnation of The Holy Roman Empire.

A millionaire
May have been
The result of an effort
To escape

*The 1905 Revolution in Russia (and what is now Latvia) had a distinct anti clerical tilt. Latvia was founded in 1918 as a secular state. Currently this is interpreted as a movement againt religion https://dspace.lu.lv/dspace/bitstream/handle/7/34500/298-56364-Misane_Agita_am09480.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y  (see p85 ffl). However, in retrospect the atheistic tilt can be viewed as led by Lutheran infoctrinated elites. The elitist perspective gained prominence, because the political leadership argued that secularism (democratic liberalism) would lead to economic development sooner than religious belief. However, the secular orientation led neither to economic development or community solidarity when facing cadres of violent city borne socialists.
Grandfather bet
He could survive
Another bankrupcy.

The other full of lies.


4 The Story of Father*

*With his father sometimes referred to as ”a lamb’s soul”, father was not going to have any chasing after of the coffins of the past, but went to St. Petersburg to study enginering. No one knows how he or who financed it. Maybe it was by means of choosing a military career. The beginning of WW1 finds him enrolled at St. Petersburg’s artillery school. After coming to America, the poet, too, took a similar path by joining the USMC during the Korean War times.

With the old days of leading one’s own band of thieves long gone, one of the few ways for a poor man to advance fimself was to join the military services and by excelling as a commander advace ones career. Anorher such poor man among the poet’s forebears (on mother’s side) is one Colonel Johann Gotlieb (Beloved of God) Rall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Rall   who led a band of Hessian troops at Trenton agaist General Washington during the American Revolutionary war. As such careers are subject to, he was motrally (1776) wounded the battle and died.

Following the 1917 Revolution,, father was commandeered by General Denikin, the commander of the White Army to the Ukraine front, where he was put in charge of railroads. Apparently father was not a happy volunteer and managed to resign, and was then made manager of the Nadejadinskia coal mine. That is where he was at the end of the war. Because Latvia had declared independece from Russia, he was able to return to Riga, where he began working for the daily newspaper Jaunākās Ziņas Latest News (JZ) of which his father was a founder and editor in chief.

Because the  origin of the newspaper apparently involved some chicanery wherewith involving juridicial risk, it was always kept secret.The ‘secret’ was kept a secret with the connivance of vatious individuals in high places.  Before JZ was liquidated by the Soviets (1940), its founder was always presumed to have been grandfather, while subsequently the kudos were transferred to his patamour Intrigue Galore. While the ‘juridicial risk’ was escaped during the days of grandfather, it increasingly came to the fore again as his days began to wane, and various members of the family began to contest over the fortune the newspaper had accrued, and could be gained only by bringing the ‘secret’ to public light, which would likely end in the newspaper’s demise.

By 1932 father took over his father’s position and became the newspaper’s de facto editor-in-chief, and brought the newsper not only international reknown (icidentally, making himself unpopular by a militari style management), for which achievement he was prompted to the position of editor-in-chief de jure. With circulation of the newspaper reaching 200,000 and with each copy (according to statistics) read by up to six people, the newspaper outdid even the London press. After grandfather died, Intrigue exercised her power as Publisher and had father fired from his position. Nevertheless, he was soon reintated as no one else could fill his shoes and the newspaper was about to  financial losses. It was at this time that Intrigue resorted to some ekstra ordinary actions-such as murder and getting involved in politics.

When Soviets occupied Latvia, the newspaper was seized by the Communist Party, and father lost his job, house and apartment, which is why he took everyone to the farm of his aunt Emma, his mother’s younget sister. Thereafter, he was forced by Soviet authorities to return to Riga, where he was arested and subjected to interrogation by the Jewish Bolshevik** controlled Cheka, which had him deported. As for the reasons why Latvians and Russians were terrorized by Jewish Bolsheviks**, see Solzhenitsyn’s suppressed book ”Two Hundred Years Togetherhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Hundred_Years_Together .

**From the poet’s perspective, the Jewish Bolshevik was as likely a descendant of the Jan Huss religious movement in Bohemia https://www.britannica.com/biography/Jan-Hus  as the Latvian Herrnhuters. For political reasons most historians neglect the likelyhood that much of the socialist and communist movements in the 20th century arose due to the repressions of Civil cum Peasant  societies that followed the Westphalia Peace Treaty of 1648. The treaty’s major beneficiaries, the Catholic (its secularly tilted theology and fake scriptures were never challenged by Luther) and Lutheran churches hastened to repress the numerous smaller popular factions which had provided the fuel for the Religious Wars. Indeed the ‘Religious Wars’ were part of an ever recurring ‘permanent’ Revolution from ‘below’ against the elites who had ensconced themselves as s superior class. Westphalia ‘Peace’ put a temporary end to an ongoing uprising of archChristians against urbanist Catholic cum Globalist seizure of society. The faked Peace was shattered when a yet relatively ‘wild’ Eastern Europe and Asia refused to conform to the dictats of urbanist led ‘age of Enlightenment’ https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Age_of_Enlightenment   and in the 20th century challenged urbanism in the uncompromising ill-fated ‘Communist’ Revolutions.

To repeat, the poet’s position with regard to European history: European history begins with fake ‘historical’ books ever since Europe was invaded (4-6th centuries, during so-called ‘dark ages’) by nomadic herders called Huns, aka Gans or Yohns/ Johns, who were led by one John The king (Gengis Khan). In the course of the invasion, the leadership of the horde of herders passed to the Goths https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huns , who in the guise of Ghermanic people went on to occupy most of Western Europe. If historians were not so timid and orthodox in their mental orientation, we would have realized long ago that the desertification of Central-Asia began with sheep overgrazing  the Central Asian steppe. The overgrazing continues in Western Europe perpetrated by  the fanatical apetīte of human sheep raised in barns called cities  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-27/central-europe-alert-heat-wave-hell-terrorizes-france

The Holocost  that visited the Herrnhuters—who came to Latvia  or about 1729— after the Great Northern War https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Northern_War, began in 1743 after Tsarina Elizabeth forbade the members of the movement to meet, and were thusly forced to go underground, in what the movement called the ‘Silent March’. One of the hopes of the Herrnhuters was to establish for themselves a territory they could and would call ”Gotland/ God’sland Dievzemīte” However, the Herrnhuters were quickly repressed and thereafter eliminated by the German and-Swedish and compliant Latvian led Lutheran Church. In Latvia the Herrnhuter movement splintered with some members taking an interest in Judaism and the Kabbalah https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabbalah ; while others joined the Russian Orthodox Church; and yet others become communists. Their memory of the Herrhuter movement continues to be challenged and denied even in the 21st cenatury. Anecdote: When the poet attended (2018) a lecture at the Valmiera Public Library (advertised as a lecture on the history of the Herrnhuters in Valmiera) and asked the lecturer, a Lutheran minister, why the Valmiera Lutheran Lutheran church was standing, but of Deacon HillDeakonāts –once the center of Herrnhuter activity—except for the name, nothing remain, the minister abruptly turned his back to the questioner and left. I was surprised to say the least.

In the case of the poet’s forebears, greatgrandfather’s inn was (deliberately) destroyed by fire in 1860 by forcing him to accept a stoty that clained thagt nit was burned down bt his mother, becausr she was pouring canle wax over a hot stove.

With opportunity to develop their own movement in Latvia denied them and Catholic Christian theology incapable of improving the human lote cept by pronoting the so-called ‘upper class’, grandfather became a teacher, tried his hand as a shopowner, then became a newspaper editor in Riga. The repression of the Herrnhuters in Latvia resulted in a welfare or entitlement oriented parlimentarian democratic State—the kind that Socrates https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLJBzhcSWTk and Aristotle warned against. The current state, reestablished after the fall of the Soviet Union, has lacked the will to be sovereign. As a result it is but a ‘third world’ province of the European Union (EU), which—not surprisingly—treats itself no better than a name on the map.

Grandfather, a teacher
Compelled by circumstance
To skate the knife’s edge
Stuck
To his populist notions*
*Theproblem with taking a pro-populist position, though uneniably a’Christian’ thing to do was that grandfather identified it with the people of the country side, but failed to note that by his time populism has become mostly a matter under the control of countryside people who had moved to (and therefore identified with) the city. Though populism of the country side had been the ruling political tilt for many thousands of years, once its space of operations became the city, its nature changed redically. For one, while every child of the countryside knew that if you wanted to eat wild strawberries you had to go  to thewood or field and pick your own, a city-zen could get them only if he-she had money. Unfortunately, money could be got only (if as in the case of Spain)  one invaded yhe realm of the Incas, killed the Inca people, and melted down the garden of gold of their sacred http://www.ancientpages.com/2018/04/23/coricancha-stunning-golden-garden-and-lost-treasures-of-the-inca/  God-King, symbolized by the Sun, and shipped the gold to Spain. In short, whereas populism of the countryside was based on self-reliance, the populism of the city is based on theft. Grandfather’s misfortune was that he did not understand what difference this made, and how it would effect his life when he abandoned the countryside of Madliena anf moved to Riga.
Even so betrayed
(fell on the edge)
Himself, when
Trustingly and naively
He shared the idea

I will edit the news

*The antagonism between grandfather and Rainis is never mentioned in Latvia, though the Index of Rainis Collected Works (25 volumes) give unmistakeble evidence that the relationship was, to say the least, a difficult one. This poet rediscovered this relationship only after a countryside village library threw out its collection of Rainis’s Collected Works, and a copy found its way to the hopper of a countryside john.

*When truth becomes a lie, history is inverted. Nowhere is this more true than the poet’s country of birth, Latvia. Even in 2019 few Latvians know that the origin of their country is to be sought in the pietist movement brought to Livonia from Bohemia and Moravia after the great Northern War fought between Sweden and Russia at the beginning of the 18th century, or that their countrymen and women played a significant role in the 1905 and 1917 Russian Revolutions. Instead the postSoviet government of ‘renewed’ and NATO propped, but no longer ‘sovereign’ Latvia is explained as a more or less liberal movement arising from a Russian and German educated atheist Lutheran oriented student elite. This has created an uptight and constipated Blue police state elite-led ‘culture’ that is as secretive in post-Soviet Latvia as it was in times of the Soviet Union.

Though the evidence for the poet’s allegations of the murder of his paternal grandparents are circumstantial, the circumstances are telling. Some significant dates and circumstances:

1.  The infamous Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was signed on the 23rd of August, 1939.

2.  It is not generally known that the Latvian ruling elite had foreknowlege of the coming occuption. For one, the poet remembers, his father and maternal grandfather (formerly ambassador to the Soviet Union) walking in the family garden following his sixth birthday (26 July, 1939) party, and  discussing  the coming German attack on Poland (1 September, 1939) and near certain Soviet occupation of the Baltic states.

3.  Among friends of Intrigue’s greater family was Ribbentrop, Hitler’s Foreign minister, members of whose family remain friend to this day (see Sestdiena, 16-22 March, 2018 https://www.diena.lv/raksts/sestdiena/tema/nams-ar-vesturi-14193427  ) with Intrigue’s heirs. Ribentrop allegedly arranged an interview for Intrigue with Himmler, who is said to have denied her the right to emigrate to Germany as a Baltic German. The reasons for the denial remain unclear, as Intrigue was known to be sympthetic to the German cause and had supported the cause in 1919, when Bermont-Avalov’s led ‘Special Russian Corps’ of mostly Gherman volunteer soldiers occupied Riga https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Russian_Volunteer_Army.  One suspects that the Gherman spy network was all too well informed about the shadow side of Latvias’s government.

4.  In 1939 Intrigue was known as the First Lady of Latvia, an unofficial assumption tolerated (likely deliberately encouraged) by Latvia’s dictator President K. Ulmanis. This is reason enough to suspect that my grandparents murders were for reasons of State convenience, and was (and yet remains) a closely guarded State secret that justifdies the spreading of lie through the sponsorship by the State culture Fund of fake family history https://www.apollo.lv/4761630/mila-benjamina-kada-vina-bija   

5.  Grandmother died on the 17th of October,1939, a few days more than three months after the death of grandfather (her first and only husband). Her death occurs at time when her daughters, both with close ties to the Latvian government, are planning to bring a civil suit (for unfair distribution of family inheritance) againt Intrigue.

6.  Grandmother’s participation as a court witness would unquestionably have revealed many family (and other—state) secrets.



5 An Augenblink

Consciousness is
But a shadowy dream
Encapsuled by memory
And vanity.

Even the poet Goethe
Forgot that

Of Divine intercession):

(Auth. trans: What you inherit from your fathers, inherit it in such a way as to possess it)

“Was man nicht nützt,

Ist eine schwere Last,
Nur was der Augenblick

Erschafft,

Das kann er nützen.”

(Auth. trans: What one does not use of one’s inheritance) becomes an unbearable burden that survives for but the blink of an eye.)

The unbearable
Angst and burden
Of Lassie
Chasing after her charges
Transported to
The slaughter house

Back home
The sheep farmer
Received for his sheep
No more
Than to buy
9 bottles of vodka
Not enough to pay off
His debt
Which is why
He turned
Into an alcoholic
Whose funeral
The village’s ‘lacquered fist’
Aka kulak
Did not see fit to honor
For having a daughter
To marry off to
A ‘very rich man’

Goethe knew
Death
Was embraced by
The trumpet’s
Condescendinly
Sentimental blare
Of taps
That reached
God’s ear
As the Devil’s
One hand clap
In the face.

Is this why
Wolfgang* led
His German sheep
Out of God’s sight?
*Wolfgang is a German name that Grimm’s Law translates as ‘herder of wolves’, though originally the name probably meant ‘guardian of the herd from wolves’, i.e. ‘shepherd’. Goethe was baptizef ‘Johann Wolfgang’. ‘Johann’ is a variation of the word ‘gang’, which comes from names such as gans, jang, yan, jean, john, Huan, ivan, etc., all cognates that recall the honor once given to herders. Be that as it may, it is this poet’s guess that Goethe’s subjectively identified himself more with the occupation of his ancestors than German intelligentsia of the 18th or 19th csentury.
    I love my cat
    For the Augenblicks
He cherishes
When he collapses
Next to me on the bed
And in praise of life
Minces his nails
Into my chest
I cry ”Ouch!”
And unconscious of
the meaning of
Rumyancov’s gesture
push him to the floor.

    Not surprisingly
    In an Age
    Where conceited
Human lemings
    Thirsting
immortal waters
Conceitedly seek death
En masse

    History is become
an Augenblick
by virtue of being
Set in white plaster
    by historians
Making-believe
Themselves masons
    Of fortifications
For a civilization
    Founded on
    Foreshortened lives

That shield
Cities and states
From consciousness
About the superiority
Of Life
And lip
Birthday songs
Sans remembtance
Of the fate
Of one’s forebears.

Ours is a time
That renames
Herders
as tanners
And drives
Gatherers of
Animal hair and wool
Off rosebush stalks
Go scrape
Rawhide
for a living.

Desperate women
    Fuck desperate men
    To spell
    Children
    With a wit as desperate.

Psychologists and
Doctors of Philosophy
Hold on to vanity
With convincing conceit
No one knows
To what end
They they believe
Themselves
Conscious

And know nada
About the anatomy of
The pyche

    Or why
Their children
    Pretend
With narry a doubt
That God is naught
And was created
By some suicidal poet
Desperate for
An audience.

Last night
After more
Than fifty years
I again met Silvie
Who I was engaged
To once marry.

My dream found her
On a street in Boston
Pushing
A baby carriage

I asked her:
Is that you, Silvie?

She turned to me
Met my eye
And abruptly
Turned away

Taken aback
I said:
”I am sorry,
Take care”
And continued my way
Up Beacon Street
To where it ends
I know not.

Thereafter
Thirty years
Came to make
Their round
And became
Nearly forgot
Before another 30
Came for their turn.

By some grace
The face of
The babe
Of Anne’s miscarriage
I saw not.

Such
Moments of
Remembrance
When
A foreshortened life
Life skids out
From under one
Becomes
The eternalest
Of curses.

Ai,
As is the habit
of dreams
It awakened me
To another day:

Had I but lived
In the countryside
And been a cobbler
Of horses’ hooves
And Silvie a maid
In my aunt’s kitchen,
We would have remained
All over her each other
Till our
Kingdom in bed
Was aswirl
And the
Honey and cream
Of amother’s breast
Fed courage
To another generation
Of innocents.

*The reader ought keep in mind that the poet believes that the so-called ‘religious war’ did not end with the faked up 1648 ‘Westphalia Peace Treaty’, but due to earlier and hence repressed history is fought to this day. The chief supporters of faked up Christianity are the so-called American ‘fundamentalists’, who have seared afake ‘Christian’ history in their brain cells by cultivating fakeness through a literalist mindset. This mindset is being called ”Holy writ”—which works like rust on a once upon a time good idea.Therefore, contrary to thr beliefs of its clergy, Fundamentālist Christianity supports the faked up humānist traditions of our city borne cultural environment.

*Chrtistian ecunemism, delayed for nearly 300 years (since the Westphalian Peace Treaty of 1648), transformed into a city led communist horde, vented its rage against the human instinct to live as a community, via a war in which mostly the civilian populations suffered and died, even as almost no one escped mental trauma. Still, the war ended prematurely, without ecumenism (led by the Soviet Union) gaining a clear victory which it believed was its due. Since the West, due to its stronger economy was able to put forward the notion that the winner of WW2 was the West and capitalist America, the issue lay dormant until the economic capitulation and fall of the Soviet Union and emergence of the European Union (EU) as the European model of factory (ecumenical) capitalism. Interestingly, this happened largely because of the economic success of the laissez faire nature https://www.investopedia.com/terms/l/laissezfaire.asp  of  so-called ‘free’ western capitalism. Though the Cold War was won by the west, it, too, had been forced by the Soviets to accept the notion that Common Man was due his part in the bounty. This common man’s surplus was largely expended on the promotion of democracy and ‘free speech’, which—at a later time—was able to exploit computer technology to its benefit. Alas! Once the technology became developed, it revealed just how profoundly the human psyche had been changed by the cityfied nature of capitalism and communism: released of the self-discipline once imposed by the do-it-yourself economics of wood dwellers, ‘free speech’ became a carousel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxdVitgv3eg   that began to turn so fast, it shed its seats and America’ unicorn  lost both irs horn and its head.

Ecumism used to be
Celebrated as
A momenti in time
As

A mass
A meal
A last supper
At a common table
Joining past to present
But transformed
Through violence to

Become like a table
Haphazardy
Spread with tarot cards
Telling
A thousand uncertain egos
Stories of how
On the other side of the keyhole
Gorgon Medusa
Waits with spread legs and
Tongue hanging from
A face
Enraptured by the glories of
Sex.

Instead of
A chalice of salt water
14 cups of wine
(Judas was there, too)
A loaf of garlic bread
And Madaline’s
Breast of milk
For John’s successor
A last supper
A lasting image
Of which
For the poet
Remains

The sight of
Intestines hanging from
Dead horses
Drawn by cranes
From Sanka’s
deepest holds
To be dropped
Over the ship’s side
Into jellyfish crowded
Gulf of Gdansk

To float
Until punctured
By bullets
And fill with
Water
And sink carcass
Out of sight

In sight of
Long ago
Amber mines
Of Old Prussian kings
The kihvi of
crippled God-Kings of
Herder (pa-gan)
Tribes**
Of the Old Balts
*Krihvi—by the rules of Grimm’s Law ‘krihvi’ comes to spell ‘klibie’, which means ‘clubfoots’ (in Latvian), who were ancient Man-Gods of the Balts. We may remember that Oedipus, the well-known King of Sophocles play ”Oedipus the King”, was a clubfoot; Jesus, too, is said to have had nails driven through his feet, which—following his resurrection —would have made him appear to Mary-Magdalene,his wife, his mother, and his disciples as a man with a limp.. Why with a limp? Because a limp was the sign by which a man was identified as a self-sacrifice to the Great Spiri. It was the result of of the future Gof-King being secured to his cradle with a chain hat went through the newborn’s heel tendons and was secured to a ‘rib’ on the side of the crib. The limp also identified the Man-king as merelt a man. whereafter he was acknowledged to have became God. The sacrificial ritual has ancient roots, and is exhaustively described by James Frazer in his book ‘The Golden Bough’. Indeed, the word ‘golden’ in the bough may be because the vine of the mistletoe may have served as a chain. All kings who succeeded the sacrifice were deemed Divine beings—as a similar self-sacrifice was expected of them.

The last Divine kings in Western civilization are:
1. Saint John the Baptist,
2. Jesus,
3. Cuauhtemoc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuauht%C3%A9moc  (16th cen,) and
4. Kings John (13th cen,) of England and Louis XVI (18th cen.) of France.

Though human sacrifice had long ceased by the time of the last three mentioned, the myth about the Divinity of kings remained alive among the common people, who confirmed this by dipping their scarves or handkerchiefs in the blood of the king, who was ordered to be  guillotined by Robespierre https://www.france24.com/en/20121231-rag-dipped-blood-guillotined-french-king-genuine-louis-xvi-dna-history .

Of voursr, Pagan does not , mean ‘godless’ as is commonly believed by twenty forgotten generations catholicized Christians, but ‘herder’. Ancient tribal people earned their livelthood not as ‘hunters gatherers’ (as catholic anthropologists tell us), but as ‘herders, gatherers, and gardeners’. Pagan is a word that consists of two parts: the prefix ’pa-’, which diminihes the word + ‘gan’/ herder that follows it. The deliberate mistranslation of the meaning of ‘pagan’ (to the  shame of all academic linguists) is like turning a virgin named Agafia/Agapia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFK3DJ7Kn6s  into a whore named Intrigue.

In Weimar
I entered the milk shop
With raised arm
Heiling Hitler
And watched
The city’s
Theatre burn
Flames bursting
Through
Its arched windows
While
A man
From a Buchenwald
Clearing rubble
Fell before me
On his knees
And begged for
A bread bun
He had spotted
In my shopping basket

    Indoctrinated by
Our hosts
    I refused him.

Mother
Made love
To a Luftwaffe Officer
From Muenchen
Come to visit
His parents
Who carried
The sign of the wheel
Of the counterclock Sun
Yet took no offense
At our Jewish sounding
surname
Nor asked
Whether I was circumcized.

I already knew
How to make a drill
Of my hand
And piss
Into a pile of sand
In the attick
(Put there
To douse the flames
In case
A phosphorus bomb
Fell through the roof).

    Hans, the pilot
Accompanied us
    The night
    The bombs fell

    As we watched
    Dresden burn
Behind a rose red horizon
    Hans
Sitting next to me
Pleasured
Mother’s crotch.

All that remembrance
Was sodered into me
By angst
Where it sits
As a clump
Of rusted iron
Nails
And reminds me
 
That
Was du ererbt (hast)
Wolst du besitzen
Far into
The future
And like rust
Beyond removing
Makes recall
The scream of sparrows
I killed
When (age nine)

I offered them seeds
Next to
The rose bush
On the trigger
Of a rat trap.

No one stopped me.
Rather, prepared me
For a life time
Of like attrocieties.

Father,
Dead of
A bullet,
Presented me
on my 6th birthday
A toy rifle

Which he raised
To his shoulder
To show me
How to use.

I know not why
As if
By some foresight
I cried out ”No!”

But forgave him
When I screamed
A tantrum of prayers
(When sure
Everyone
Was at the other end
Of the house)
I bounced
On the bed
Begging God
To stay him
Among the living.

There were days
I fucked mother
With
No lesser
Tandrums
Then watched
Her face
Twist
Stupefied
Ignorant
For what reason
She had been
Fucked by her
Lack loved
Son

Who ran to
Her side
After she fainted
And tried revive her
By offering her
Sugared water
To cover up
His sin.

The benefit was
I had no father
Who took me
To the whore house
Where orphaned girls
faking love
For one and all
Cried ”Fuck me!
Fuck me hard!”
Then asked her client:
”Will you marry me?”.

War was
The horse
Between my legs
Turned to a starling
Screaming
Between the cat’s paws
”Spare me!
I have nestlings”
In the nest.

God did not come
(as you may think)
To the rescue
But continued
To die
Over and over again.

”There is no other way
You can be taught...”
The King said,
”...Not to fear death or
Learn about
Human indiference
To cruelty”.

Cindy said
I was
A macho male.
Silvie said
I had
A beautiful soul
Divine Rusalka
Sings yet
A ”Song to the Moon” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHM3zMBQxTQ  :

It leaves me
Wondering, why
The needfire...
For love
Of abandoned cats
In post-Soviet Latvia
With their step-families
Gone off
To England
To pluck feathers
Off dead chicken bodies
In chicken factories
Where only Muslims
Cut the throats of
Christian raised
Chickens
Seek me out.

Is it because
I say a prayer
For us?

The she-cat
Perhaps
Seeking
A last minute
Hope in
A life gone wrong
Found
In my shed
A shredded
Cardboard box
With a torn towel
To lie on and
To die on

And for
Some reason
Made me feel
Like a host
Worthy of a citation
For hospitality.

Indeed,
It was spontaneous
Pareidolia*
*Pareidolia is a form of mental activity (sometimes it said to be a ‘fake religion’—seeing and hearing things https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUy7pwp9Qmo  ) that in our age of ‘science’ and murderous razor-edged vision is denied legitimacy. Pareidolia is used by smart ass ‘losers’ to escape a head on attack by making a side step and letting the killer crash and eat dirt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgPinqi2jwU

In the afternoons
While the orphans slept
Ol’ Smittie and I

From next door
Listened to me
Play the harmonica
And spoke
The nicest words
I ever heard:
”I am ready

I am ready!”

I did not ger
To take her either.

The world
Continued to turn
Upside down.

News came
Who knows
By what whisper
Intrigue
had died1941.09.23
Of diarrhea and
Stomach cramps
At the Solimska saltmines
A Soviet gulag
In my mother’s
Mother’s arms

To celebrate
her birthday1881.09.10*
*Salmonella poisoning takes more than a week before one dies of it.
She had bought
A can of sprats

Next
I found myself
In Inchon
—Three days
After the armistice
Of a United Nations
War—

I was among
fucked-up men
like myself
Serving humankind
Born of asphalt

And
Like all
Stared bewildered
At bare breasted
Korean peasant women
Walk ten paces behind
Their husbands
Who flicked the vipers
Come sun
On the dirt road
Back into the
Rice paddy.

Still, I read the
Standard issue Testament

And when
In our tent
Destitute daughters o
Destitute peasants
Went from
cot to cot
Selling the troops
Their pussies of
Not so fresh meat
Twirking
Between their legs

I turned
to my other side

Wherefore
My brothers-in-arms
Soon called me
”Stuck-up”
(On himself).

Helped by a sock
In the darkness of
My sleeping bag
I did my best
To remain
sovereign.

Months later on ‘rest
And recuperation’
In a Japanese
Whorehouse
In Kobe

Maya
asked me
”Will you marry me?”

I blunted ”No”
Then embraced her
We both wept.

Maya took me
To the shrine
For fucked-up children
Sitting
Dressed up
As pretty dolls
On the temple’s shelves.

    I fully understood
    Maya’s despair
Only decades later
(when by way of
many
Loop de loops)

I was back in Latviain the 1990s
And asked
A fiftyish hitchhiker
What she thought of
The country regaining
Its independence,

She looked at me
Touched my hand
(not my thigh)
And replied:
”I am almost ready
To become
A whore.”

No Latvian churchman
Knew to teļl
The story of St. Agnes
The raped Roman lamb
But ler
The deplorables of
A renewed country
watch her
Reincarnations
Dragged along
The highways
And byways of
God’sland
And prove that
In Latvia
All Moravians
Were long dead
By hands of
A murderous
Germans and
A consenting
Latvian Lutheran church

Done serving
In Korea
I told a sargeant
Pulling rank
”Go fuck yourself!”
And was sent
To dig a hole
To be filled
With shit
By my replacement.

I returned to Boston
Where
For reasons unknown
Boston University
Refused my application
To study theology.

Perhaps
The doormen
Of the department
Knew
I was capable
Of telling them
To go fuck as well.

Wherefore
I took to English
And signed up
For a poetry seminar
Given by Robert Lowell
Who had written
Prize winning
”Lord Weary’s Castle”.

Though I had
heard of
Herzog Bluebeard
I had never heard of
Skunk Hour
Or ‘confessional’ poetry.

Yet by some fury
Pilloried
a poem:

”...Bloodpost
Will become
Life again”.

Thereafter
I could no more
Make sense
Of words.
My incoherance
Seemed beyond cure.

I was too young
To be a poet
Of my time.

Life demanded
I live it and
Rethink it
Before I dare
Paraidol it.

    So, here I am
    At age eighty-six

As the Greek vase
pictures it:

Jason
Spit from
The serpent’s gut
Like a fish
Parboiled
Raped
outraged
In the steams
of Cities
gone mad.



8 In Remembrance of Misha

As T. S. Eliott wrote”:

“..., do not ask,

'What is it?'

Let us go

and make our visit”

Then
We will see

If denial
And inversion is
The haze that
Drifts through
The Kremlin’s
Dining rooms
The White House
Oval office
And other
Heavenly places
After the arrest
Of minds of men
In Superman suits
Takesplace.

Truth is
No one knew

Until Nadezhda
Had enough
Cried Alleluia!
Committed suicide
And proved St.alin
But a shaggy dog
sniffing his way
Across an alcohol
befogged
Moscva bridge
Early one morning
Hunting the last
Sovereign ghost
Of some escaped kulak
Or his wife

To have them come and
Wash with vodka
The blood splattered
Leather kilts
Of the butchers
Slaving away
In the cellars
Of the Lyu-b-yanka

Raising the Tsar or
The Soviets
Their empire*
*The horrendous Truth of the matter is that like Tsar Peter, St.alin understood that to successfully resist the bloodsuckers come from the West, one had to square their methods, industrialize, and risk  one’s self becoming like a vulture https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuYQSnbd8Us pulling food from the intestines of the dead never to be redeemed by the clock returning things to as they were. What is the future of piggish Moscow?
Though a Soviet
Need never have
More kolkhozniks
Than fifty finks
And a choir is
Big enough
with six voices

So much
    For steel
Tempered in
City waters:
We think,
Write,
And temper
The laws we want
The way we want
The country
Be damned...

    Let the bitch
Lie naked
Under the dining table
With her skirt drawn
And wait for a stakhanovich
To draw aside
The table cloth and
Come down on her
On all fours
And give her
A fuck.

    After Nadezhda’s suicide
    St.alin was reborn
    As a living dead man

Who heard
her ghost liken her suicide
To the murder
Of their children

Left to himself
St.alin
Went on
    To become a portrait
Of a Man-God*
    Free to kill anyone
    Who found himself
In the line of sight of
Whereever its gaze fell
    And awakened
Memories
*When Nadezhda killed herself, she did for Stalin what he, because of his indoctrination in Orthodox and Catholic globalist theology (that religion is a tool of the State) did not dare or have the courage to do for himself. Because she had been Stalin’s intimate, Nadezhda intuited that the Man-God orientation of orthodox Christian theology had reached its nadir in St.alin, and decided to return Divinity to the Great Spirit by committing suicide and turning into a Goddess. Needless to say, Nadezhda proved St.alin’s subjective self to be cowardly. On the other hand, once he was emptied of Nadezhda’s presence (1932), St.alin’s subjective self (freed from having to kill Nadezhda) felt free to become God of Terror as only the Book of Revelation forecast it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5eP_HoNUx8 (Click 35:00)

With God dead, and the search for His successor a failure, city dwellers began to identify with what came to be called ‘naked humanity’. Unfortunately, this movement was preoccupied with and limited itself to City borne Nature https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWCe_b_8ZlM and became identified with featherless chickens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qJK5K_fcfE  . Because City dwellers fail to recognie themselves as radically different new species, Nadezhda’s self-sacrifice means nothing to them, and a thousant mutants of St.alin seek believe themselves to be geniuses for wamting to emigrante to Mars instead. Though the movement received suppor from the main stream media, even a total deforestation of planet Earth could not pay for it, and Earth became even more uninhabitable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB5U8Goa_iY (note how the profesor of truth believes that more air conditioning will solve all problems) than in the day of holodomor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_F1kYQlcS . Interestingy the subjective mind of the human collective believed that it credible that the problems on Earth were caused by Martians as early ass 1938 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs0K4ApWl4g . With most of Humankind living in cities, it is no surprise that cityfolk found it relatively easy to identify with overheated featherless chickens running short on chickenfeed. Countryfolk, too, influenced by radio were subject to increaing anxieties. Tshus, with expectations of Doom becoming inevitable, many turned to the Bible, expected Armageddon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq6q2BrTino , and the return of God as Savior.

**While the Great Spirit was—more often than not—perceived as feminine in its nature, God on the other hand was seen as masculine. Why? The answer is simple: Women are mothers of children and birthe the human race; men, on the other hand, are seen as the protectors of communities (families, tribes, countries), which circumstance causes them to sacridice their lives https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EYU3VTI3IU . As pointed out at above (*), God is consequent to the sacrifice of life by a male inividual more often than of a female.

***It is worth noting that The Great Spirit was for the most part believed to represent Life in the wood. Once the self-sacrificial male was metamorphosed into God, Life was replaced by Consciousness. Consciousness dressed in a suit is subject to failure and death more often than Lifein the wild; and was squared, when in the course of time, men began to convert God to the ends of human institutions. God lost His man-God charisma, and Nature came to be replaced with reichs, empires—and was led by the likes of St.alin.

    City tempered
In globalist ice-waters
St.alin
Inserted
His ice-water
Stiffened body
And mind
Among the living
By forcing awake
Memories of
Thousands of
Death sentences.

Death to the peasants
Shouted countless
Deputies
Let there be
Sputniks
Putniks
And trips to the moon

Who cares if Misha
Dies an alcoholic.
We need the levy
On gin and vodka
To keep our cities
Going

Let ants replace
The Romas’s* of birds
With concrete towers
Reaching into the clouds.
*Just as the word ‘pagan’ is derived from the word ‘gan’ (meaning herder, and originaly pronounced ‘yan’/jan), so ‘roma’ is derived from an old anf now forgotten word, meaning nest or cradle. When the warlords introduced agriculture, and began deforestation, many people who dwelt in forest Romas, in order to escape slavery, fled from their millenium old habitats. The flights took place on foot, and in horse drawn boats or wagons. While today it is believed that the Roma (gypies, zigeuner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M16447BSZI&list=RDQTEokyBCYLk ) originated in India, it is more likely that they are of any number of ‘Romas’, a name appropriated by the Catholic Church for its sole use. In the poet’s country of origin, Latvia, there are records of hundreds of place names, once homesteads in the forest, called ‘Roma’. True to the contemptuous attitude of the post-Soviet Latvian government for all things of preindustrial age or Russian, the original homesteads of the Latvian people are  a matter of indifference for Pop-culturalized city-zen bureaucrats.

Gypsy culture
Regenerates
Every time
The city sociopaths
Create a new category of
The poor and
There is a shortage
Of bananas

Which reminds me
That the swallows did not
Return this year
To their Romas
Under my roof
Americans
Or their proxies
Killed them
In their bloody wars

Stalin cleansed
The Cheka
Of Latvian
Sovereign kulaks
(The fists)
And beat to shit
Without exception
All living bodies
Horses including.
*When in 1932 the poet’s grandfather (72) retired, he bought a neglected country estate in hopes that he could spend his remaining years raising horses. Unfortunately for him, Stalin’s factories had already began to mass produce tractors that would replace horses. Intrigue, his wife, ridiculed grandfather for his oldfashioned orientation and proposed that he build a modern farm instead. Because at the time, 80%+ of the Latvian people were still holders of family farms and used horses to plow their fields, they were unfamiliar with the idea that a farm could be turned into a factory. Thus, this effort, too, flopped. Intrigue then turned the assembly hall at the entrance of the mansion into a reception room with two ornate floor to ceiling antique clocks flanking the gathering place in the middle. Sadly, grandfather died alone in a small basement room at the back of the house that was located next to the closet that housed the mechanisms that ran the clocks upstairs. All that remains today of granfather’s regard for horses is a story he wrote in 1880 at the age of 20: ”A Horses’s Memories’’.

Misha was a
Village alcoholic
Everyone knew well

Once a Soviet era
Countryside policeman
Misha did
What he could to
Avoid work
And to enjoy his job
Became
The star at
Every village
Cocktail party

What with
The police car
Becoming
A vodka ferry when
In early morning hours
The wells ran dry

It was then
Misha summoned Stalin
To his side
As an authority.

Sad to say
During one such party
Misha’s partner laid
His wife
Which is why
Misha punched him
And was
Fired forthwith.

    Saving one’s soul
    By the side of
    One’s coffin
    (touch Misha’s
Folded cold hands
Covered by sister’s
Handkerchief)
    Is not an endeavour
    Worth mention
    Unless he had
    The affection of those
Who came to say
Good bye.




When Tsarina Katerina I
Let Generalin Magdelina
Keep the pension of
Her husband (d. 1727)
She may
Or may not
Have done it
Intentionally
Imagining she could
Through Magdelina
Become1729
the mother
Creatrix
So to speak
Of raped over Latvians
from whose midst
She, Katerina,
—Turned by
Ways of war—
Into a whore

Would emerge
200 years Later1918
As a republic
Destined to be
Again fucked
Now
By its own orphans.

Today

Armageddon 1),
No one gives
Katerina
Or Magdalena credit
But erases
And belies
18th century
Latvian and
Russian history
For the sake of
A kingdom
On the Moon.

    Instead,
    A post-Soviet
    ‘renewed’ Latvia
    (a subject province
    Within
The European Union)
    A province that denies
    its history
    and its wood

    But lets
Cityfolk in Riga
Filled to overflowing
By Russian and Latvian
Freeloaders
Fuck them up
To high heaven of lies

And blow money
On fireworks
And military parades
With old Abram tanks
And advertisements
Calling for
A UNITED LATVIJA,
STIPRA VALSTS,
While celebrating
A its 100th
Anniversary Year
Remembering nothing.

A 100 years ago
There wasl
Some pretention
that Latvians
Had ancient roots
And to prove it
Most children knew
A 100 folk songs.

Today
(become subjects of
The European Union)
There are none
Such children
But ‘beat-the-rich’
Rappers with
”Too much money in the bank”

History has been
Assimilated into
A faked story
Where the past is
Like God
Who returned
But because
no longer needed
Was soon killed.

Nine tenths of
The luddies
Who once lived
Where I live now
Have been driven
Off the land
Into cities
Where pornography

I love you,
I need you,

To sit on my face

Until I get a raise
And hire the Great

The ‘blessed’
Violent men

10. A Kebab of Lamb
s
When I returned
To Latvia
(after a 51 year absence)
I was surprised
To hear
Teenagers
(Who came visit me
Looking for summer jobs)
Ask:

What are you
Doing here?
Why are you here?

    The poet’s reasons
Were a mystery to them
They knew of no past times
    They had no memory
    They knew no history

There was no song
That sang
“For auld lang syne,
My jo,
For auld lang syne,”
My dears

For a buck
Most young girls
Were ready to
And did fuck
Anyone:

If I did not
An Afghan
In London was
Sure to do it.

It was fuck
Theft and lie time
In Latvia
Uninspired politicians
Former baskeball players
Pretended to be of
Noble birth
And collected rich dividends
Off alcohol licenses

While everyone everywhere
Was having an orgasm

The community
Had to bear
Parliamentary democracy’s
Unzippered dickheads
Sucking up the stage
For eyeing.
   
    Was such ignorance
In response to
God-man come bang
Mary Magdalene
In the arse?

Evidently.

    The young had
Never heard
Murmurings
From their
Alcohol besotted fathers
Or screams of mothers
At the tear
Of the vulva
By a child
Born feet first.

In St.alin’s Paradise
They had been
Shelled out
As avocado seeds
In greasy pulp
Turned on a pantry shelf
Dry and black

I had to let
The question become
One
I had to ask myself.

Only after leaving Riga
And moving to live
In the countryside
Did I realize
How faked
And fucked up
Renewed Latvia was

I had returned to
A people who had
Come into the present
In a land
Sans syne

Though I was of
Syne
Syne was no longer

By virtue of aging
I had turned into
A ghost
Better dead
Than spooking the young
With stories
From thence and syne.

A psychologist from Canada
Was president
Ulmanis was a forgotten
Curiosity
Intrigue was negotiating
A new career for herself
As a believable phantasm

From the Riga airport)
Cannot tell a bull
From a cow

Having emptied craniums
of memories
Everyone’s guts disemboweled
And innocence
Of young
Shredded to rags
Adorning scare crows

Like Jesus
From the bones of
John the Baptist

On the remains
Of the KGB or CIA
A spotles
Renewed shadow
On the other side of
Screams
Coming from thieves
Deemed unworthy of
Having their
Pain remembered*.
*The poet believes that thieving is as natural to humans as it is to a hungry magpie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1neI5sQGPcU , and that the two thieves who were crucified along with Jesus were blameless and ‘framed’ or put in the picture for drama’s sake. This is not to say that thieving by humans is desirable if one wishes to become part of Divinity, which is why humāns have consciousnes, But it does say that so called ‘ethical’ behavior by atheists is little else than bravado ny the satiated.


His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjusts

The vaccinations
Against pain
Were by way
Of orgasms
Induced by
Sodomization

After the blood
And screams

There
Had been
Pain, death
And whatnot

But was
Made forget it
By multiple
Anal orgasms
And welfare
Catalyzed out of
Decaying Divinity.

*The ruling elites in the Baltics of today form the Gladio-CIA sponsored post-Soviet  castrated sgovernments (its memberhip tecruited from among American-Latvian and NATO-Latvian aģents), even as native Latvians are encouraged to ignore and lose memory of the history of their homeland in favor of ‘western valuess’ being extended to ‘other people’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JkhpZCjdew .

Though the ‘baricades’ (of 1991) expressed real emotions and desires of the people of the Baltics to renew their extinguished nations, the intellect of that desire came to be represented by western intelligence agencies and quislings seeking lucrative employment. There was no follow through or critique by a Latvian government; and by 1993, one protested the ‘renewal’ with suicide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_Monument  at the foot of the Freedom monument https://timenote.info/lv/Adolfs-Bukis-01.01.1935  The suicide note of the sacrifice was said to be of no importance and its content has never been revealed.

Paraisitic wasps
That scorcheded

And left it to die.

Was spread
Over the minds of
The survivors of

As a mouse trap
To the brim
With drowning mice

Of course,s
The degree of
Sadism employed
Is a Top secret
Of the Latvian
Government:

Dissent is silenced
With spectacular
Public ceremonies
Where licking of
Of fake documents
And books
Takes place
With erotic intensity.

When the 100th
Anniversarys
Of the last 100 years
Was celebrated
history was neglected
In favor of
History exuded as porn
By Bruxells and Riga.

In ‘renewed’
Post-Soviet Latvia
History is
Like a kebab of lamb
Turning
On a Viking’s spit.

Made-in-America
Civilization
When America

Lost of mind
Bombs in hand
Some nut in California
Proposing nuke Mars
Uncle Sam’s
Finger poking up
Every

Shits arse
Inspiring cries
In turned blue Latvia:
Poke me more

We belong to
The West
We gasp
In amazement
At your conversion
To Catholicism

In our neck of
The wood
Silence reigns
No cries of
”Youoo-whoooo !”
From berry pickers or
Mushroom gatherers
Ululates across
The cranberry marsh
But the whisper
Of a wind
Swings in the trees
Awaiting
Baba Yaga’s iron teeth
The chainsaws of
The executioners
In Bruxell, Moscow, Washington
And Riga
All rip ready
At each others
Throats
Children stand
First in line

Real politic rules
The lands
Where
Luddies
Once spoke
The gentlest languages
Of people
On Earth:

Dear this
Dear that
Instead*
*The Latvian language (a language of a people who give evidence of coming of tribes that used to make  home in the wood) suggests that it is of a people who are a remnant of an aboriginal population that went extinct in the Middle ages with the aurochs https://www.fossilhunters.xyz/disappeared-species/aurochs.html .. both of which (auroch and homo sapiens)  ‘animals’ were taken down in the fierce battles between the Western and Eastern orthodox Christian churches and their secular sponsors. Despite its rugged nature, the environment of the wild also nurtures https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QF_TI35SjbQ , and enables the evolution of a language in which every noun can be endeared and verb gentled. This language—now subject to the cynical environment of concrete encased cities which nurture caprious egoes, is becoming as extinct as the wild, the wood and its divine inhabitants.
A song of mutes
Begs to hear
Itself sing
A nightmare

Even so
Survivors
Are shouted down
By shithead billionaire
Politicians

Media sucking up
The radiations
Of shit
To the stratosphere
All who hog
The news
With praisies and whines
For a U.S. and NATO
Sponsored
Genocidal democracy.

Not only
The language
Of fathers
And lullabies
of mothers
Is forgotten

Cause for Anger
Is denied
As hate
And love
Is fucked up
By rabid
City malcontents
In vulture ministries
Lick arse
Before speaking.

Dreams and hopes
Of refuge seekers
And exiles
Find home again
In some wannabee homeland
Are lost in
The deep dusk of
Wine-dark dreams
That flow from the sky

Down
The steps of
A Maya pyramid
With a mob of
Migrants on its steps
amassing
At the 11th hour

To find me
Sitting next to
My deceased brother
Confessing to him
My loss of fortune
As if he can help

When he shakes his head
And tells me
He remembered nothing
Of the tale
How I saved the painting
With the girl
From Capri
With the jug of water
on her head
As the noise of war
Contested August heat
And all around
The bloodied
Wounded crowded
What used to be
Our bedroom

We climb down
The pyramid
Cross the street
Enter the throat of
The city
Find my apartment
Where I remember
I have promised
To pick up
My wife
At work at 11.
The clock shows
5 minutes past.

I cannot remember
My wifes’s number
John is no help
And though dead
In dream
Remains a know nothing
We rush
To my car.

I get it started
But its headlights
will not turn on.

Which is why
I pull to the curb
And turn to John.
He says:
”Don’t you remember
You’re divorced
You have no wife
But one of believe

You did not
Fuck up children either
Try calling
Joan of Ark
The milkmaid
Whose womb
The Pope reamed
With sticks of fire

She saved France
Did she not?
She will not flinch
From the sight of
Latvia’s intestines
Swallowe
By Latvian hyenas.”
 
”Our sister
Full of pickled
Christian righteousness
Could have done
save something
Left no road marker
At her grandmother’s

But took what
She called
Her ‘property’
To America
Trusting the Letts
To survive
Fishing for trash and
Lampreys”.

I nodded astonished

With American exceptionalism
Handy in seconding
Lilith’s animus
Her faked up ovsession
With Christian love
Let bless
Everyone with guilt
And left the road
littered
With collateral damage
Not of her doing

My brother and I
Sit entombed
In my car
By the curb

I turn the dial
The radio
And am surprised
To hear sing
Tchaikovski’s
”1812 overture”
(Mighty Lord, preserve us from jeopardy.
Take Thee now our faith and loud crying in penitence.
Grant victory o'er our treacherous and cruel enemies
And to our land bring peace.
O mighty Lord hear our lowly prayer,
And by Thy shining holy light.
Grant us, O Lord, peace again.
O msighty Lord hear our prayer
and save our people
Forever, forever!)

The htmn sung
The announcer speaks:

”...just in
A 40 river barge convoy
Carrying thousands of
Chicagoans
Fleeing the civil war
Embattled American Midwest
Traveling
Down the Missisippi River
Was attacked last night
By shorebased torpedoes

Several barges were struck.
Thousands are believed
Drowned*
*After Americans living in the central part of their country had had enough of the city based socialist led insurgency for ‘free everything’, and began to resist by asking the cityfolk to pay for their food a fair market price, it was not long before armed convoys of cars manned by gangs of Antifa began ‘blitzkrieg’ attacks on inland farmer communities. Thanks to the Second Amendment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6J7j82PCWI  of the American Constitution, the people of the American countryside—unlike the Ukrainians during the Stsalinist caused holodomor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr5WkhEiqcY —not only met the attackers head on, but with Russian and Chinese support were soon attacking the anarchist inhabitants of the city, by blocking food and energy supplies to cities, and by advocating that cities be put an end to or holomobilized. Unlike in the case of Latvia (1919), where a similar proposal by Latvian country people was sabotaged by city (Petrograd) borne legalist Leninist Stuchka https://academic.oup.com/ajcl/article-abstract/38/1/196/2580897?redirectedFrom=PDF  , the  oposition movement of American farmers and their countryside supporters was almost immediately successful. As Russian and Chinese rockets and navies blocket ships carrying food supplies from reaching American coastal cities by sinking them in international waters, and President Trump, leader of the anti-urbanist forces, enticed city dwellers to desert to the countryside by offering them subsitance level gardens in the countryside, American cities quickly became islands of chaos, and holomodor visited those who had once exported it.

These events began the thousand year long period of peace (predicted in the Reveaton 20 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+20&version=KJV s). It is a period during which the forests on Earth are regrown, wildlife is reborn and reestablishes irself, rivers ceased to glow in ditches, and men cease to fear death. Also, ‘democracy’ is discarded as a force that encourages disunity and iss once again replaced with sacred kingship.
The pheromones
Of Lady Death
Overwhelms my nostrils
The Lady
Approaches the car
I roll down the window
Her odor gags me.
She hands me a beaker
Filled wine
I gulp it with one swallow
My knees buckle
I see me
Fall
Into a fault
Of plowed earth.

The air fills with
Seagull screams
Come gather worms
And free me
Of my flesh.




12. The Shadow Survives Its Object

By coming into
The light
Memory takes revenge
By remembering nothing
Death overwhelms it
With a nirvana like
Orgasm

No surprise that
Hung men die
With an erection
and Muslim heaven is filled
With belly dancers
and Roman guards
roll dice over
who will
receive God’s
loin cloth, and
Judas acknowledges:
Though John the Baptist
Is my father,
Jesus, too, is
become God
And I must
Hang myself*
*Judas is one of the great mysteries presented by the story about Jesus. As the poet has pointed out in other adlibs, in his analysis  the so-called New Testament discovers that Jesus is a person deliberately introduced by a Catholic priesthood to destroy an earlier form of Christianity that promoted a self-sacrificial King as means by which humankind was to govern itself. Because of the universal respect received by this King, He came to be ragarded as the highest possible incarnation of a human being, i.e. God. In Latvia of old such a King may have been one Vissvaldis of the Latvian kingdom of Jerusalem (now convincingly diminished to a nonentity by having been renamed Jersika).

A series of murders of Sacred Kings in once Central Europe (round about the Black sSea https://www.google.com/maps/@43.4151586,25.6282163,1920291m/data=!3m1!1e3 ) took place about the 12th century of our era—even though the Catholic clergy that served succeeding secular kings, has pushed the date back to a fictitious date of 32, the alleged age of the crucifiction of Jesus).

In Western Europe kingly rule lingered well into the 20th century, and ended with a series of cowardly secular rulers (Leopold/Belgium, Hitler/ Germany, de Gaule/France, Franco/Spain, Mussolini/italy, Ulmanis/ Latvia, and others). Though Ulmanis of Latvia is a little known fake ruler, he stands out—because of his narcisisms—as the most cowardly of the lot: as the poet has pointed out elsewhere, K. Ulmanis used Intrigue (a career prostitute, in many areas of endeavour) now renamed—with the help of Latvia’s Cultural Fund as Latvia’s ‘First Lady’—to destroy beyond retrieval an entire nation of which the poet is a member.
Though redeemed
Judas
John’s son
Was the last of
The assembly of
Divines
Able to bear the weight
Of
God.

Alas! In what tatters
Humankind.
It’s time
To go
