All sentient beings on earth chant.

"No More Walls. Tear Down the Walls. 
We want Freedom!"

Protestors scream

"No

"Tear

*World Wide Wall Revolution Goes Viral* 

"Destroy the Walls," the masses scream.

*** 

Breaking News!

"All Walls on Planet Earth Destroyed!"

***

Freedom?

***

Standing by wall rubble, 
people look sad.

A Woman says 

"I miss my wall. 
I want it back." 

Others begin to yell out 

"We want our walls."

Soldiers run, being pelted with rubble.

"Rebuild the World Wide Wall Revolution"

***

After a bloody five year war the pro-wall revolutionary faction wins. 

The anti-wall faction is imprisoned behind prison walls.

*** 

Every ten years, there is another wall revolution.

Humans cycle in wars as far back as we can go in time.

The battle over walls has gone on for thousands of years.

The wall revolution has nearly destroyed the planet and all species.

*** 

Question 

"Is the human species more advanced than other species?

Most would say, "It is, yes, without a doubt."

***

I am sorry to rain on anyone's parade.

In a far-off galaxy, genius beings study all world systems.

The criteria for advanced species is that they do not destroy their habitat and play chicken with their extinction.

***

Here are the findings for planet earth.

***

All species on earth, with a few exceptions, do not destroy their habitat.

Using this criterion, the human species is dead last and least advanced. 

The black arts of destruction are a unique expertise of the human species.

I am sorry to make this announcement. The odds for humanity do not look good, but we still have a chance.

The announcement reads the human species must get over their trip about walls, or all species will become extinct.

*** 

Here is the biggest problem for the human species. Humans, on the whole, are not bothered by the destruction of human beings or the earth.

When it comes to walls, people do care.

*** 

Thank you for indulging me.

I felt I must be honest about our plight. 

I reach out to everyone to get ideas for change.

I have to believe change is possible.

Please help inspire me and help if you have time to move humanity beyond World Wide Wall Revolutions.

*** 

Help quick! Time is running out!

Missing Self

Missing Self *** Yikes, my family has become concerned by my inability to find any solid fixed self, what to do? Best to keep quiet about my suspicion of their lack of inherent self. And who or what has been doing this searching and looking anyhow, like a gerbil spinning on a wheel? Those Buddhists,  I tell you, they appear so peaceful  (sometimes ) but are secretly a radical group of self deniers, how wonderfully subversive.  Maybe I have been a Buddhist all along and just realized it. But then I look for the Buddhist and Bam!  Same problem, there's nothing there. I must confess enjoying my nonexistent self today, uh oh, that could mean trouble. Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...

Springs Healing *** I’m down and I’m low You won’t let me know What you’re really feeling I opened up my heart As I did from the start Now I think you’re leaving You say it’s not the end That I am your true friend Yet I know your lying So why don’t you just go Before the winter snow I can taste this dying I don’t want your blood Or the coming flood Of the tears you’re crying Because only in our end Will our hearts mend And wake up in springs healing *** David Penn Arndt 2022 *** Artwork Cynthia Re Robbins

Lead me gently to your enchanted lands

Lead me gently to your enchanted lands 🕊️ Oh in our dreams how we hold each other close I whisper in your ear of all the women in the world It's you I love most. A woman like you I believe it not possible, It could not be, but then I found myself drowning, so joyfully, blissfully within your inner seas I fell upon my knees It's you babe In all in every way I wish to please My love's real baby It's not something That will vanish Disappear Leave Blowing out Space and time Loves pure Holding each other Verse meter rhyme Would you take my hand Lead me to your me Enchanted Promised Land Because then my dear How vast My love For you abides You would fully Completely Understand 🕊️ David Arndt  Sirens Of Titan  Down on the Horizon  Line (c) 2022 🌹 Gustav Klimt
