Freedom is a

queendom

and a kingdom

in which all are

queens and kings

and all are free

and all is free



Cinquo De Maio

power with the United

in the US dares

to execute a citizen

of Mexico



Cinquo De Maio:

bring back independence

to the US too!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

May 18: The holiday
celebrating Mexico's
nationalization of oil

Freedom in a corporate
ruled state in which
costs are always rising
and the gap between
billionaires and the poor
is ever widening
is impossible.

   A Jamaican Commission's call for the decriminalization of pot,
   which is a sacrament to the Rastafarians, has drawn criticism
   from the US government, which has a vested financial interest
   in the illegal status.

   While pot can sear the lungs, cause blood to pool in the heart,
   and create traffic danger, the latter has a tiny fraction
   of the fatalities annually attributed to alcohol caused traffic
   accidents.

   Pot smokers cite
   . the ecocide employed by governments which
   spray toxic herbicides
   . the expense and family busting of tens of millions of jailed
   pot users around the world
   . the spiritual changes made by marijuana users
   (1 reported becoming a vegetarian as a result.. another
   said he felt a connection open between his heart and throat
   and was able to speak his feelings more)
   . some report working harder
   . others say the government should not be a nanny
   . still others say the US government role with Cointelpro
   in heavy drug distribution in the ghettos as documented by
   a series in the San Jose Mercury shows it cannot be objective.
. Where pot is free there is less crime.
   Normal is one of many groups working to end decriminalization,
   and Mr Lewis, owner of Progressive Insurance, has given 6 million
   to the ACLU to fight repressive pot laws.
