02092025 duty of americants part three
correctness requires deep contemplation
and even deeper patience
demanding company is how you build it differently
truth is how you build it right
maybe all we need to do
is
open up the valve
hear the pop of a solenoid
maybe each time
we try and direct the flow,
it puts an elbow in the pipe
(whatever your 'it' is)
americants?
yeah. is that as a title or word out in the world already?
uhh-
right. well maybe maybe let's cc: back to semantics. this idea that the words we use matter, both within our outward communications and, maybe moreso, with our Self talk.
one more thing missy while i have you-
i know. just be patient.
patience is not going to-
maybe it will.
you can't just expect to-
maybe it will.
the words we use
and how we use them,
they matter.
it matters.
so maybe all we need to do to :step:right:the:fuck:around: these bozos is
to relabel this place:
americant
not to say they won't because they can
not to aid in the tyranny by the endorphin hit followed by "reporting the news"
("hey- have you heard..." followed by a genuine disinterest in the individual)
its just their style
these americants
what they get,
not what we are
and sometimes you have to cut off a limb
to save the body
americants
without their
policing
oppression
this ugly heaviness,
then maybe we can really start
to take that very first breathe
before again
its a decision to swim back to shore
and not just continue treading water
the storm is coming
the sooner you start swimming,
the more useful you will be to the pack
back at shore
the sooner we can start
not to keep saying the storm may pass over
or change directions
not to keep saying they won't,
because they can
because they are
if we told them no,
could they still?
if we started really saying
"you will not do this to my family"
could they still?
how far can you
extend
expand
this idea of family dear reader?
could it be all the fucking way around,
as an embrace from a stranger?
what can you do?
reign it in
before you lose it
it takes time
to wrangle
i cant stop seeing
american
turn to
americant
morph nevertheless
into
americantina
see beyond
consider the person you want to be
consider the country you want to live in
it’s begun
as a restrictive uniform,
as a pair of scissors,
