Fire in the fields


Who is prepared to make a difference?
Stand up for what you believe?
Stand up and be proud. There are but a few ways to ensure our success in life. Taking the time necessary to understand who we are is the most rudimentary of aspects. We must by all means define our being. How can this be achieved if we are confronted with many obstacles?
Is the exchange of goods and services the true means to success? Achieving financial stability is but an invention of our greed. Greed is blood running through our veins. I have this inner feeling the world is going to eat itself. Just completely devour it whole. Those people living within are entirely unsuspecting. We are oblivious to the nature of things. A society built on monetary values. Capitalism has morphed into a hideous beast, one that has gained its own strength and muscle.
We fear the development of artificial intelligence. Movies and theories have come about portraying this AI as an evil force. Something once created and permitted to walk freely will overtake humankind. I feel the true monster we have let loose and allowed to run wild is our greed, the insane desire for greater wealth.

Fear is to the person what
I am to the being
A soullessness found only in the dead
Something we have come to dread
Unlike those from generations past
Our lives have become furious
With needs
Not necessities
Rather than life
We live for wants
Rather than live for family, families live for life
Survive is but all we are doing
How can enjoyment be achieved?
What is this enjoyment?
Am I big because I am who I am?
Or is it just those who say I am?

Fire in the field


Oh how the fire has grown, spreading its enfuriating furno 

As it stands we have civil unrest in Syria, Afganistan, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, North Korea.


Yet a group of Quebec students feel their cause of fighting against tuition hikes is detrimental to their livelihood.


Oppression of civil liberties and lack of essential human needs in African countries.


Lest we forget the horrific atrocities of a 75% tuition increase over the next 5 years. 

The insults do not stop there, banners of Che Guevara, associtaions to Martin Luther King and Mahatma Gandhi, pots and pan clanging in the streets. 

How dare you?

Their fight for basic human rights, for the human existance were and will forever be crucial to our history.

How dare you say you are fighting the same causes these people have fought for?

The gaul you have to associate your meneal cause to those of oppressed people.

How dare you mention your cause in the same breath as international atrocities. How dare you! 

If you are unsatisfied with your current government, why did you vote for them if you voted at all?

Where is the justice when working people, who have completed their education, graduated and are now in the workforce now have to "deal" with the embarasment of our future generations.

Where is the logic in their argument when our tax dollars are paying for their education. And if their tuitions do not increase, who will shoulder this burden?
