Radio Interview with Close Advisor to Obama on Syria and the Smart Drone Threat

Audio only: Radio Interview (culture jamming)

[Transcript:]

Today we are pleased to have Johnny Ostenopolis, advisor to President Obama and privy to the deep thought processes that transpire in conferences on major international events such as the shell game of weapons of mass destruction. Do you think the Syrians have drones?

According to sources at the table, they not only have drones but they have smart drones.

Can you describe these smart drones for our listeners?

Sure. Smart drones are armed and lethal robots that shoot anything that moves, women, children, three-legged dogs, whatever touches your heart, kiss it goodbye.

Does America have these?

Of course we do. Ours are the prototypes being shot down and stolen by rebels in Afghanistan who send the pieces to China where they are reverse-engineered, mass produced and sold to rogue states like Syria, Panama, Luxembourg, and Quebec. One YouTube report claims even Mercer Island is arming itself for Armageddon.

Whose drones are smarter? According the very reliable and unbiased Rand Corporation highly sophisticated research report, I quote, “By gosh all them bad ones and we good ones they bad we good, we want to go too, make us happy, make us go fast, faster; heat-eating sensors, laser nanotech itchy under the collar.”

Sublime. Dudes really know what they are doing. I honestly don’t know how anyone in the defense business like Obama could cross a chemical Syrian street without the jujitsu those guys lay down in the mud like mink coats for lady was a tramp.

Whose stocks should a patriotic American Mother Courage buy to cash in on the bombing of Syria and the good it will do for promoting war and all the peace, and peace of mind, and pieces of American minds, it brings to American minds.

Very well put. In my mind you can’t go wrong with the big war profiteers listed by USA Today, especially Boeing, boom-boom-boom, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, and General Dynamics, and most of all Lockheed Martin, a big boomy-boom-boom. As Obama said, he personally expects to be compensated by the entire lot of 25 biggest defense companies in the USofA, upon stepping down, of course. If Cheney and Bush can do it he can.

There you go. The real color barrier is right there with the big guns.

You know it, he knows it, but do the big 25—really 47—know it? Who knows….

  

Fantasy Nature Assemblage

Leaves of grass map dry mudflats,
openings for worms to take chances
to grow like grass, waiting for rain
to return them swimmingly
and fishing girls to pick them
from thin puddles and lay them
twisting in plastic tubs.
Who would ask the girls about
the glamorous aura of worms
or list the shapes of haloes
once documenting stone faces?

To love the earth from the depths of its thinginess
entails not just hunger but humor:
as the hungry cows moo to the girls
in late summer fields
the Dachshund moos to us.
So we lead each other to go see
jets mirrored to sluice willy-nilly cloudbursts
dropping home in parables of love
and dropping darkness and lightning at destinations.

Blackouts pass in intervals.
Transportation is at a premium.
Clouds give way to rain and grain,
grain is compacted, steer hooves
clamoring out of the closing bullet
a ballet, for which we are always late
as in the alliance of pollywogs
pointing cutely to true north.
