Vegetable farmer and activist Richard Rhames from Biddeford, Maine |
I needed some solace yesterday - some reassuring words from someone I know well and firmly trust. I called Richard Rhames in Biddeford, Maine. He's a veggie farmer and for many moons has been a public access TV activist in our state.
Richard had me on his show (Out in left field) lots of times and I reciprocated by inviting him to come on my show (This Issue). Both of our shows were on public access TV. In my case This Issue was on 17 local cable stations across Maine since 2003. Covid shut the whole thing down once it hit.
When Richard answered the phone yesterday I asked if Dr. Rhames was there. I told him I needed a 'consultation'.
I didn't have to ask many questions as he takes off like a rocket and lays it all out. I wanted to hear all of his thinking about what the US is trying to do.
I took five-pages of notes and decided to turn his words into a bit of a poem. Richard was indeed prophetic.
It's a clown World
just read the story
if you can get lucky enough
to find it printed or aired
anywhere.....
and what will the slant
be?
Hopefully not like the
constant lies from
NPR and the other
CIA controlled
media.
It starts
with the lack of exposure
to our own history.
It's hidden.
It's a cartoon society
of 'good guys vs bad guys'
Red, white and blue Superman
all the way.
Could it go nuclear?
Only restraint in DC
is the Pentagon,
and when the Pentagon
is the one we have to rely on,
well, we are fucked.
Doomers or Gloomers?
Are we going under water?
What is the tipping Point?
No rain in New Mexico,
dry in California,
fires burn, make their own wind.
mouth open,
hungry for anything we can get.
After all, we are just the
superfluous populations.

Or are we, WE THE PEOPLE.
Thank you dear Bruce.... from from northern New Mexico burning up and at the heart of new cold war...... 🙏🙏🙏🕊🌍🌎🌏🌱🦋😪
Wow, Bruce, that's a powerful poem from your talk with Richard Rhames. No doubt he's been mulling over what's happening while he's gardening and growing vegetables. We have reached ground zero. That's my sense, too.
