R you a peace progrom I.

im looking at four Ban symbols,
the four of hundreds that ive made in
my life, the reminders of all
the ban-bOMb symbols
i have seen since 1954,
at least, ones ive welded into form
w a civil defense triangle, base, exacting
time on headspace number one
nothing else-Thought
to scrutinize other, than to read books,
galore, maintaining the mean
redemptive as a disassociation
allocated from
our continents drive
for empire the context
thru our militarys
impervious-ness offered h-MoTHeR,
nuclear: to release
lets bother the polluting machine
continents best oral communicators
the Oracle of universe realized
indigenous folks
from the yokes of oppressive
ruinations to the great Spirit
the old looks of cold cosmos
we Caucasians offered interstellar space
but those appellations spelled
more insufferabilities/
colonial-imperialism: not genetics
relatable to the tribalism /w-a-r-r-i-n-g kinds
of acculturation, the nineteenth century
let out to pasture w
the Ecologic decimations of 30 millions
buffalo herds
hardly language returned to afro-Amers,
once their release from bondage
apparently, small pox, took tolls upon
the sociology studies, hardly teleological
only definitions of a time, past

II.

to have h-BombS has always
meant conceit
govt deceits, lies, & yes
no imperatives other than,
empiricist deception...however, the only
reasons people started
against empiricist propaganda
that machine of insult
compassion to our purpose
compassion, as a non-nationalistic entirety
compassion, for liberty and our passions
for freedom,
as ours was democracy
1964 six-years tryst
put-to-use: pursuant, justice needs
not amenity
AND to find the new entity
of this exposition for the independence
enterprises combined into peoples
knowing & knowledge imbued
the world overtly non-deceptive
all the nations in a parallel
concepts toward anti: w-a-r began
liberty
the ban symbol helped; the Ban-the-bomB
movement, active acknowledgements grew,
the only reasoning, reason
was that fibrous thread
Beowulfe: the prophetic poet,
of 750 a.d. and i, could discern,
the need for an active ingredient
had parsimonied onto the planar
of Bucky Fullers one-world village
of six-sided, living venue
the knowledge of radionucleides: scientific fact
filtered onto some factorable social
sobriguette of the hippie: dropouts,
outnumbered the hipsters,
anti: w-a-r public & returning veterans then,
outnumbered organizers but, soon-enough
opposition overcame Congress, while
the anti-UNdeclared w-a-r veteran
detained & confined, the original
discern of nuclear movement thruout
the media has been cut-off since
of Ban-the-bOmb, but we chastised
for not being anti: h-bomB, en masse premise
we, then, went Reduction of the stockpile
underground, since the people
begged the issue of
ban the H-Bomb symbol: is b-a-n
1970 until late February 1971
a duration when druggies thought
they had all the answers, but had
n-o-n-e: no occlusion/no energy...

III.

as the ban-the-BomB movement went
along boomers came to bloom
the lean into factual,
history widened Ecology
from inception 1953 through the terse
episode of...Oil Indonesia/ jungle-dope,
Laos: Indo-china/Viet-Cam-Laos...
the principle to reduce th
Hs stockpile
those objects yet increased 1964 thru 1969
from 2,200 to 13,900 in numbers
men kept returning discerning not
the H-bomb, not the w-a-r
which one was the category of
brutalization to men-women-children
of Viet-Cam-Laos
weigh-over, there
in a geographic re-distribution
of Amers young bucks & the
inveterate soldiering
hype for propaganda cryonics
in a crux of matter prone to dissuade
the definition of anti-Matter
as the same sentence w reduce our numbers
matters do hold sway w UNdelcared: w-a-r
AND that was both men and the stockpile
in the droves of masse society w.o. ghettoes
ivory-towers, became suc
returning veterans had been propagandized
w too much military go, ogle & remained
shallow to discussions or delirious to p-e-a-c-e
as the draw-all base of consciousness
as ever-present in police/
national guards: belligerence
built-up to riotous proportions
of total victory
both UN knowing disparagements...

IV.

anarchy trysts the people felt emotion
surrendering to peace
could win All instead
all the soldiers, all the men & women
beaten by cops, all
the non-Bomb anti: w-a-r
embalmed into the principle of
the H-Bombs only exist
as venues of people stretched to
non-circumnavigations & as veribundity, too,
the power fell upon the total lapse
of independence needs
to cut the coattails of Euro-colonialism,
we the integrated Afro-Amers
peoples, of north american continent: Amers,
of one kind & all
how became anti-United Nations ilk, too,
that presentiment of agent orange defoliation
i.e. the genetic deforming chemical dioxin
where they were in southeast Asia marijuana
was that enough to curtail their veterans
pay? the peaceniks had a singular ideologue
the word peace gre
as the ban symbol was used on
every object in any peaceful march,
AND @ numerous protests & vigils
thruout the whole
of polluting
globe
that the reduction in belligerence...
output would not bring peace,
the copouts plagiarized the meaning of
the ban-the-boMB: symbol or,
rangefinder in a circle
the arrow of universal acculturalization/
as the hunter or warrior w.i.
the circle of wholeness/oneness/universe
has survived 50 full years, now, as
bAN...

V.

the visual slaughter to 1.5 millions
of vietnamese peoples, plus
the eradication of the Lao civilization
of 4700 years renown
was & is anathema
an age of scientific volitions
educational, minimal-progressing, standards
of the fact was acceleration w.o. connections
to tribal animism, will still be
metaphysics of peoples, because
we are yet tied to our genetics
our genes tell us we need not get disease
but, our minds know strength through
the convenience of language
& knowing one another
is not concoction of venerable markets
for death-squads, already used,
by the U.S. what then becomes this
the isuue of Nevada Test site ground zero,
if not a replacement
for propaganda already transposed
which is what the UNdeclared: w-a-r
authority of: only the executive office, became
ostensibly, oligarchic AND remains so, today
w the stockpile
yet, non-Reduced below
what Israel has 240 nuclear weapons
w the use/abusives the n.a.t.o. threat level
of mini: H-bOMbS
swaying beyond the non-Proliferation treaty
coupled-to and slid loose of protest
to anger youd think our minds
aggressive would not wander
and all UNdeclared: w-a-r-s since
but other than Nicaragua in 1932
one does bother to concertina,
our needs for 300 total must be parable,
the stresses of Korea as since, the Big one
when lil boy and fat man were used
because, we had not that
adjunct proprietary:
the United Nations, then
I dont buy that as alleviation, either
Lao people, Cambodians, Vietnamese
civil war-ring complements of farmlands people
impoverished people for, why
w-a-r or all three virtually tribes
people non-modern/non-technologic were
yet, only beginning to ascertain
how-to-grope w nation states or
nationalism, thrust upon them,
indemnity in part, how large in people
the whole worldwide sobering platitud
or how despotic
our history books have been useless
how plutocratic the wrong use of meaning,
use of propaganda indicates a hatred of
humans, has become built-in...

"Non-Proliferation Treaty"

"Peace" be to Hamid Karzai.
he had lost his father to assassins in Pakistan twenty years ago and yet found his pact in Washington D.C. February, 2003.
Did he relate to the State Department
how much the pollution from American bombing had increased, because of not because our bombs had killed 4800 Afghanese
he has truly walked a fine line
w the al Qaeda w the Taliban
by why is the use of depleted-Uranium 238
which is only depleted when used and abused to Ur236, not now, a worldwide embargo
against weaponry of masse-genocide
prospects, could the Non-Proliferation Treaty
have reduced our nuclear H-Bomb arsenal
below 1000 bombs or 20X a Nuclear Winter
could this be a way to sopt the depletion
of forests for cheaply built wooden houses
are the slurban-modern societies so
morally attuned to democracy as purpose
that degeneracy to polluting the molecular structure
is the only way to learn DNA is genetic in question
manipulation yet toxicity and radionucleides remain
the parliamentary takeover of teh U.S. Congress
by the Enronilk of once was Texa governor
but, foregoing justice dispensed by military
in injustice is NOT Okay.
the H-Bombs' retention
remains intervention but remains, obsequious, by C.I.A.
arm of the Pentagon, arm of the Defense Dept
arm of 2500 H-Bombs on Big Brother alert:n-o-w
so that non-depleted Uranium can become d.u. 236
and who voted for the hegemonic fundamentalist
right-was U.S. Congress to be plutocratic al all?
who asked that a dictatorial methodism overtake the humanist Universality
that the U.S. should partake a military bluff--
stab at Oil Markets for U.S. air force to supply U.S. nuclear ships,
U.S. tanks loaded w 20mm non-depleted Uranium...
who is the cowering power share Enron who asked that hte Defense Dept.should practice new techonology by warring?
who asked that the Aurora Borealis should be perturbed
by continued "smog" hydorcarbon oil-as-wrong:fuel memesis should never be spoken, so get rid of the Non-proliferation Treaty
who as allowd the Turkey Air Force to kill 30,000 Kurds in Iraq & in Turkey who is the big refugee dressed-in-black
that will determine that w-a-r is always sport? neither, Saddam Insane nor "the layman fundamentalist-in-chief" bellicose non-warrior alone and the capable to back down without can be astute enough to back down without the remainer of hte world is Nations and the General Assembly of all world's nations in vote--ordinanced that the United Nations was justly established by teh democracy purpose, if and when freedom need survive without the tyranny o fhte H-Bomb dictums for the liberty maintained by Human Rights Declaration, thus assuring underlying ethical balance for humanitarian advent w.o. "polluting" genocide, intervention, w-a-r yet w world/Int'l law.
