Fire Sale






"another one bites the dust", Morgan Stanley.. sells 20% to Mitsubishi ... the Beer makers is gone, and China, Japan, Canada, and the Nordic Regional countries, owns a greater % of the rest of it..

"Fire Sale"


The "good ole boys".. finally ripped it good, and sold everything they could get their hands on, and made shell games of everything they could not get their hands on..

they rode it like a broken down horse, until it's hoofs were frayed and it's backbone swayed, till it's belly scrapped the ground...
and all the while they sit atop it.. like a warrior straight out a a battle, when the battle ended 50 years ago... and they paraded about.. as if they were still the victors of a world war. never paying attention.. the war had long ended, and the glory of the parade was only meant to last for a day.. and they did the ticker tape parade for 50 years... and now the streets are littered with confetti.. and when the wind blows it away.. they find the streets filled with pot holes.. and the store fronts.. have "gone out of business " signs all up and down the street... and they traded companies that had no foundation, and no product.. but they had desktops full of paper.. with a stamp and a seal... they played it, making deals with each other.. creating delusions that wealth backed the front.. and the back overcame the front.. and there was nothing left in-between...and the paper.. crumbled into dust and blew away in the wind..

For years before they learned so little.. maybe nothing at all.. as they left spread across the landscape of the Texas desert lands.. steel icon's of days of old, when they pumped black gold, thinking it would never end.. they drove battle ships and tanks and called them automobiles.. they built homes bigger than hospitals.. and found they valued everything.. above and beyond what is the basic human individual... and now.. time shows again.. the folly... and shows again the delusion.. to be hollow.. and shows again.. the same pattern they follow..

And this time... the time of all times.. it's now.. a "Fire Sale".. and the landscape of a nations goes on the auction block.. never to be again what it was.. and now.. owned by those it once thought to be lesser than themselves, while they gloated on thinking themselves above all others.. and now.. it is those others who have bought up and divvy up the spoils, left over from the "good ole boys".. squalor and glutton of self consumed rip and gloat, rob and steal, scheme and deceive.. and wade thru the muddy madness.. of their ego's ride..

NO more ... the houses made of gold, nor the hillside retreats, no more .. the greed and mis-deeds will again.. get their pathway to delude and intrude..
News makers flapping lips, and crashing lives, for the dollars from the pill pushers and quacks, dressed for media saturation.. and now.. the reality is faced... of a nation in demise... and not knowing what way to turn.. while they push and stop for another game player.. as if they have amnesia, to forget the failure of the Saving and Loan, which was but another showing of what is happing today.. more blind today, and forget of Enron, and Global Brossing, and the Keating 5 and their gang.... they felt.. what the heck.. we fleeced them once, why not again.. and again.. and they now find .. "them" turn out to be the same ones who created the game... and they find reality showing.. it is themselves they screwed... and the people of a nation they deceived..

and now.. None across the world , wants to believe in any of them .. so the BEGINS..

none can remember the electrical rip off of the 90's.. when power games were played.. and they chose to let win, one man who was within the core of the gambit .. and he proceeded to take down a nation.. and now just before the Fire Sale, is under way... the grey haired tricksters.. again.. seeks to delude and mislead.. with a six shooter on his side.. hoping to get one more chance to become a war hero once again.. seeking his own war.. at the price of anything.. that he may again pursue his glory days.. he can't fight the nats off his own ass, but he will send young men to battle when there's nothing to win and nothing to gain... while he issue his threat and tough talk.. and the world looks at him with laugher at the folly of a old man.. who is from a time before.. with a bugle in his mouth.. and veterans of foreign wars, crowing around.. seeking one more rally around the hill top.. hoping someone will loan them enough to buy another tank.. and a bag up bullet... until they can.. get the last of a nation.. sold.. in the "Fire Sale" of America.. for the sake of wild men and gunslingers.. seeking the western ways of yester-years.. unaware there are not Indians to slaughter.. and now will lay down and roll over.. and no buffalo.. to wipe out.. to starve them into surrender.. and the wooden forts will not longer protect the calvary.. who is battle weary, and cycled to fight beyond their bodies ability to even stand... and he blows taps on a rusty horn.. with a clogged tube... as he gasp for another breath... while the auctioneer... rattles off the next item on the list.... with the banners overhead.. blowing in the wind..



We the individual citizen.. will have to listen, learn and change.. if America is to regain and maintain.. what is left. Either people wake up and change.. wake up and find out, that if no equality.. there is no quality... if their is no Justice, then there is no peace.. if there is nor respect of persons, then there is no Unity... and if Unity fails any further.. there will be no Nation... and the Fire Sale.. will leave nothing to Rebuild.
