thank you for that .. i will check into him .. peace and joy sir! :)
The things going on in our society right now is enough to make you feel like you live in an alternative universe. It's like the twilight zone. Everything is upside down. Right is wrong, and wrong is right. The intangible is presented as something tangible, and people fall for the illusion. We are truly puppets on a string and so easily manipulated. I say "we" because, while the minority have the loudest voice, the majority sit back in silence, allowing the craziness to extrapolate exponentially. To see things unravel so fast, so far, in such a short period of time really makes me concerned for the future.

I once heard someone say "I'm not schzophrenic, neither is he!" I wonder and I worry about designations. I wonder and worry about names. (Especially name callers thinking they have won an arguement) I wonder and worry about what constitutes a civilised arguement these days. Because I used to enjoy those. But one thing , (one of the few things) I don't wonder and worry about is the calibre of your verse. Or at least I wonder but don't worry about it. I wonder how you became such a master without equal in my view. And that is an accurate name.

As I've written before ... Our loins and mechanisms are intertwined. It is troubling that something as private as sexuality and identity have become political mechanisms and reasons to parade. And honestly, I don't think very many of us actually care about such things. The fringe has to be loud because they are so far away from the center and television is their bullhorn. Your last line is powerful and profound. You can sign your mail ...

Well, when you think through it... Scientists, and people slightly smarter than average were always under watch by the powers that be... For one reason, Fear. They must manipulate everything to fit their views and ideas.. Even against facts.
Those who don't follow... Well, things didn't change since the Roman empire's day, only the actual means of being silenced, brushed aside, or maybe in extreme cases actually killed... That being said, I'm no conspiracy theorist... I just like to think for myself.
Hitler said something to the effect of... The best way to conquer a people, is to slowly take away their rights.
At this point, there are some situations, some I had witnessed where human rights meant nothing.
2004 if I recall correctly our government had ordered riot squads and TEK troops to attack a peaceful crowd, on October 23, when people had gathered to honor the heroes of the 1956 revolution against soviet oppression.... That government is no more, and its politicians have next to 0 following since, but... It's a reminder that people should hold those in charge accountable for their actions.
Rights, the future, change for the better.
These things have been reduced to shiny wrapping paper for the crap they wanna pass onto us.
There is a return of the old 'lord' system, only now they're called the 'elite'
This was a great read... I'm thinking... I like your style.

"conspiracy theorist" ... a club being used to brutalize those who can see, connect and add ... we most certainly have things being chipped away at for decades but, in my opinion, never so much in the USA as the last 20 yrs. ... everyone should be frightened by loss of liberty .. God given rights as the Founding Fathers' so deliberately put it .. i would go a step further on your "lord system" theory and call it our central Federal Gov. ... rock on Mr. Wolf!

Very powerful. And compelling in its inferences. I love a poem that makes me think.
The miasma theory may be obsolete in medical terms but it remains a powerful allegory/allusion
Miasmic influence in modern times? It can hardly be blamed on schools. That is a way for parents to shift blame for errant children. Or for parents to blame when children do not see eye to eye with them.
The internet itself is a great miasmic cloud of influence without the confluence of reason and knowledge. It seems impossible tom protect children from it.
