Ongoing sporadic journal of the overeducated, and underemployed. The title derived from Coupland’s description of cubicle land; the corporate ghetto. Random photos and thoughts. Left the ghetto, never happier. This still a work in progress

5 year's later
Iraq still rages our pastor and chief and, the corporate thug co-fuhrer, declare success?!? Cheney being told a majority of Americans disagree , answers"so""
How about a little democracy  in the U.S.A. ? 20,000 wounded 4,000 dead American soldiers and Iraq civilians in the hundred of thousands  apparently not human so not counted by occupying forces.
      Mean while Obama gives a speech on the elephants in the room , race and religion. Very literate,such a contrast to the Bubba in chief.I find it insightful, and articulate.
     I work for a major finical institute, and I am Caucasian, and male. It seems after much travel,t seems there is nothing else in this country except "us  v.them" and you are  guilty by association.I am the "man" not so much because I am management but by the colour of my skin.
  Obama is correct a more perfect union is needed 

    
  
03.08-a crack in time
Just a little sting then a warm feeling
Count back from a 100
9o, 89
Morphine glides
To the
Junk centre
In my brain
86
You take my hand
I am waiting
You say
Tapping your high heeled toe
83, 82
and you kiss me
81, 80
And we are possessed
When awake you are gone
It is only a stolen moment- a crack in time
I return the lights too bright
You stay
Beautiful and faraway

It's been forever 60+ an hour weeks are taking the toll. Obama inspires me, and Hillary looks more like McCain each day. Stocks go ape shit and I wonder if I'll have depression stories to tell. I am off tothe veal pen.

in the bar next to place where my friend dances for men

tarred stain lungs I scream into the night

too stoned to notice

too lost to care
next to the bar where my friend sells herself
It seems my life is blend
of leggy blonde's nicotine schedule one drugs and excellent fictions
a glass of gin, and half a pack of cigarettes
I have become the person
My parents warned me about

justifying Iraq by using the “success” of Vietnam War. The mind boggles at what an idiot this man is as Karl “Gobbel's” Rove has resigned along with most of the inner circle rats from the sinking ship of lies failure and corruption. . The mind reels at the sight of this man actually thinks he get orders from God.

My friend is on stage Stevie Muree playing guitar. I am working hard talking to Judy and Jolene. I am talking our collective journey as hard as I can I am walking out in bliss the there of us passing bottle of crown Royal. Next a spiff is lit in the back of the SUV us rolling and playing. I am massively happy. I am sure how or why these things happen to me are just ecstatic when they do. I am just an average bloke in a pair of jeans and t-shirt, which seeks to save Africa .The women, are attractive and successful by the conversation we are having best friends, and middle management in different energy companies. I am ok , under employed and overeducated, I am sussing not their average fare. I also by the after in a luxury SUV three of us in varying stages of undress the embarrassed glances they may share much but this is the first time they’ve shared this. I am honoured and just silly happy in daze .

12 nights in Bangkok

Bangkok
A city at once modern, and ancient. The women so very lovely Buddha’s everywhere along with “. Long lives the king.” I stumble through staring at everything trying to drink it all in. I try to reconcile; starbucks and the benevolent portrait of King and Queen

Guantanamo Theatre
David Hicks confessed after only 5 years in inhuman conditions after being betrayed by John Howard. And the prospects of a kangaroo court some day in the indefinite future.
Halide Sheikh Mohammed confessed to 911, the U.S.S. Cole and killing Nicole Brown Simpson.7-7 in UK the shoe bomber having knicked 3 snickers bars and a porno mag. Feel safer? I doubt it becomes more clear everyday; that9-11 was inside job the real terrorist are still in power.

The poetry of conflict
Unmarked helicopters hovering overhead
Shouting into the receiver
Over Lord this is Arch Angel
We are yours OverLord
Command!
The mad Capitan screaming the Lord is coming soon!
Over the black helicopters speakers
Look up down forward and back again
These balaclavas were issued by the queen
Think about it and you’ll realise
You saw nothing at all
