Introduction/Definition/etc

 

Rambling from scary to bizarre,

but also creative writing and

thinking outside the box,

somewhat literally..

 

Body

 

Precipitate

 

Like Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe,

cleaning water from hard to soft,

then having to help with the

yearly maintenance, sludge in the

bottom of one of the two mixing tanks,

the other in operation (redundency)

then literally cleaning money,

coins with borax (tm?) etc for a

white gloved ladies crowd

hotel tradition, now hunt n peck out

some bad feelings following some shit,

which may make more sense later on..

 

 

So build up to Father's Day,

missed Tinner Hill Blues,

costed money, and got the

Columbia Pike Blues Festival day wrong,

showed up thinking it was today...  Nope...

No Joy.

 

Tuesday was a primary election in Virginia,

missed that, not sure Independents and

Greens are really allowed, and others

didn't seem to know either...  bifurcate?

 

But rather serious problems in Alexandria

and the Capital at Congressional baseball

Charity game practice, a guy and shooting,

identified shooter dies, majority whip

and some others in critical,

and Bruce Jenner, ironically a Newtown,

Connecticut High School alumnae,

(Sandy Hook Elementary Shooting town..)

now trans  Caitlin? is quoted as

"Democrats can't shoot straight"

and used the Crazy, pejorative,

The C word, some MH people go off on,

Like the N word, nerd, racial or whatever...

 

Waiting time for mourning but people

do all sorts of stuff to make sense of the

inexplicable, the shooter is dead,

so little to find out there, everything else

is hearsay, afaict, ianal, nor a doc,

wasn't there, journalistic detachment

/ objectivity, etc.

 

Let me give a benefit of the doubt,

from brief glimpses of the news trickling in

after, guy who stays at Alexandria  Y,

Republicans practice there, security gets

overzealous with a guy who worked on

Bernie's campaign, became homeless,

staying in his vehicle, and called 10 times

maybe looking for help, frustrated and

Angry with the ways things are going,

personally and politically, shit happens,

He dies, others wounded critically..

Not a kid, not at schools, not likely

even terrorist, just shit happens...

Again and again...

 

First of all, I don't agree with violence...

Guns, near security, looks like 

Capital police have major party leaders

(Majority whip?) under protection,

scene gets worse instead of better..

deescalation, not sure We

(US, The People) really

know how to do that well...

 

Personally, dying in the heat with

a runaround, schedule abuse, etc,

and thinking about health issues,

the crumbling safety net(s),

and would I want to go as my father did?

Heart failure, lupus, no transplant,

medical costs, etc,  and doesn't

make me want to see doctors,

medical systems, have tests, etc..

But violence is not right either...

 

I usually take an underdog's side,

somewhat devil's advocate,

the hatred just gets worse,

without some understanding,

I don't agree with killing,

either direction, so chill ppl...

 

 

Conclusion

 

Summary of experience or similar

 

 

Just trying to process emotions,

easier when I was younger and

pretended not to have them...

Stick to logic, not conjecture, hearsay,

armchair hindsight 20/20 ...
