 The
clock says there are more hurricanes than we have ever seen before.
The clock says there are more tornadoes. The clock says the winds
are more powerful than ever. The clock says there are more extremes
in temperatures everywhere on Earth. The clock says there is less
ozone in the stratosphere since who knows when. The clock says
that we and our babies are being killed by ultraviolet rays which
now pour freely through the unsheltering sky.
The clock
says the French Government has lost its bloody mind and decided
to disrupt the field of our very stressed out planet by celebrating
its impotence with nuclear tests. The clock says the Chinese Government
is just as arrogant and thinks that it exists in some provincial
vacuum along with the French. The clock says what about those
earthquakes?
The clock
says that the worldwide environmental movement resembles Dorothy
and company on the way to some Oz where the planet will heal itself
magically in spite of the fact that so many of us are sleeping
in a field of Prozac poppies. The clock says that there are a
whole lot of folks out there who think some Messiah is going to
come and save them from the responsibility to love one another
and love this planet, too. The clock says you've got to love for
yourself, baby. The clock says that we got into this mess largely
because false apostles said we were saved by the bloody torture
of a precious being who tried to tell us all just that.
The clock
says that all of the peoples of Earth are enslaved to Pharaoh
and that there is no place to go. The clock says that the only
way out of Pharaoh's Egypt is to love like we've never loved before
and in the process peacefully and democratically replace the destructive
and evil men who have no intention of paying more than lip service
to implementing solutions toward the healing of the Planet with
people who do. The clock says we have to be those people.
The clock
says that there are things we can do to stop the madness and reclaim
our spirits from the garbage heap of mediocrity and collective
self destruction. The clock says that if we don't, then we should
all bend over and kiss our collective ass goodbye.
The clock
