Tooth Fairy hit my place first, alone. We jumped her, nab her teeth and coins. She was fast. Poof: gone. Chrystal Night, the night’s special, droll erotic spider, dolled up spectacular… “it’s more of a religious event than a mere psycho-sexual social ‘coming out,” she said. Like a Bat Mitsvah sort of or First Communion with…that sort of thing.” Adding, “I’m here, I’m willing, I’m ready surely able to please someone fuck me — I’m not this way at all.” The girl with me said “That’s okay.” A real kid. Ms. Ocean would be 52 at least, by now. Noam Chomsky wore his baseball cap and Bono promised to set himself on fire in protest of himself. So cold outside despite touted benefits of global warming. Constant chill of wars and lies. Flip talk about money, property, rights, and medicines no one, except a very few people, actually owns. Closing in on me choking me — tell me, can YOU breath? Roomier laying beside Mom on the silk just before the final call for visitors to scram so they could close the box — all living visitors leave NOW — and screw the lid on drop her down forever, cover her with mud forever, dark forever. Good-bye. Still. At least the dead can breathe. Let’s sing:
Oh, the dead creep toward us
like worms, like worms
we’re alright, we’re alright
we’re all right, right, right
but what, I say what what
what will the worms eat
now the dead have
risen risen risen
from their mental
prison, prison, prison
A SPECIAL MESSAGE TO OUR READERS.
For over two years now, Thomas Paine’s Corner has been a powerful and unwavering voice for a courageous and badly needed agenda for change. We have consistently delivered hard-hitting and insightful commentary, polemics, and analysis in our persistent efforts to persuade, educate, and inspire, and serve as a discriminating but generous platform for voices from many points of view with one thing in common: their spiritual honesty and quality of thinking.

Aside from the caliber of its content, Thomas Paine’s Corner’s strength is that there are no advertisers or corporations to exercise de facto censorship or orchestrate our agenda. We aim to keep it that way and we need your help!

As a semi-autonomous section of the multi-faceted, thoroughly comprehensive, and highly prestigious Cyrano’s Journal Online, we share Cyrano’s passion for winning the battle of communications against systemic lies, an act which is essential to attaining social and environmental justice. To help us achieve that goal, Cyrano’s Journal, besides its regular editorial pages, intends to begin producing editorial videos to expose the lack of proper context, ahistoricalism, excessive over-emphasis on inane events, and outright lies the corporate media, and in particular television, present to you and your family as a steady diet of pernicious intellectual junk food. This will be an expensive under-taking and there will be no grants forthcoming from the likes of the American Enterprise Institute, the Coors or Heritage Foundation. You can be sure of that!

As Greek mythology has it, the powerful are frequently defeated by their own hubris, and that’s precisely what we are witnessing today. Our rotten-to-the-core, usurping plutocracy has become so overtly and arrogantly corrupt that our patience has now reached its generous limit, and the membrane of America’s collective consciousness is about to burst. This will result in a significant restructuring of our socioeconomic and political environments, we hope (and must make sure) for the better. Considering what is at stake in the world today, Cyrano’s Journal and Thomas Paine’s Corner want to accelerate the arrival of that new day, and its promise of a new, truly well organized, kind, and honest civilization.
