Last evening I noticed another disconcerting Trump headline.
This felt and smelled more like a deadline
for disintegration
than a lifeline toward integrity
of democratic health and prosperous safety
Happy front and more perfect center
in our US Constitution,
which I remember him swearing to protect
right before reassuring all of us
he is here to listen to everyone.
Republicans and Democrats and Libertarians and Greens,
and whatever other patriotic party affiliations
he might be able to discover
and learn from
on his new Presidential executive ordering journey
into twitterland.
Anyway,
the headline was about White House Rumblings
of an assault on the State legalized marijuana industry.
My first reaction
Why?
Why would a federal administration
that has just finished reassuring all fifty States
that where students poop and pee in school should,
by right, rest solely at the state level to regulate,
then,
almost in the next inordinate breath,
also send out this alarming message to all fifty States
that it has become a new federal health
and national safety defense issue
that my kids should prefer the alcoholic beverage industry
over the THC industry.
I’m still wrapping my brain around how that could possibly be defended,
construed,
framed,
promoted,
gullibly bought and stoned cold sold
as a consistent reading of
“listening to everyone”
About constitutionally protected federal rights
to health and safety,
to well-integrated,
cost effective,
consistent,
or at least sane public policy.
I believe it was a congressman,
and not a “prurient interest” judge,
who said he could not define pornography,
but he knew it when he saw it.
This Administration, to date,
has brought us our first nakedly twittering
rapacious President
in no way discomfited
by verbal abuse
or domestic motherland violence
And now his fascist federalist tendencies
begin to look more like jacking off in public,
like pursuing his personal prurient exhibitionist hate-mongering agenda
instead of paying even lip service
to his true mandate,
the compassionate health and safe happiness
Original Intent
of not only the U.S. Constitution,
but also the Bible he laid his irreligious
self-righteous
dominant hand on
Toilet twittering
is not an economic or political act of active listening
for a healthy democratic
and wealthy multicultural society
of humane and responsible citizenry
Doing our best to follow our Golden Rule intentions,
not led by Golden Ballroom pretentions,
to at least do no alcohol-buzzed harm,
cause no further caste-privileged trauma,
and, whenever and wherever possible,
to follow a path of health,
happiness,
and polycultural prosperity.
As for DT2 himself,
I suspect he would improve his governing outcomes
by easing off the Coke
and investing more in some reefer madness,
preferably while among a large
extended family picnic,
an authentic thanksgiving banquet.
But, DT2 aside,
this White House has already become the home of nakedly prurient interests,
rather than national and state health
and environmental safety policies
and procedures,
polyamorous planning and design,
rather than retributive reaction
and assault distraction
and misanthropic wall-building.
Prurient–marked by arousing
immoderate
unwholesome (unhealthy, unsafe, unredemptive, non-therapeutic)
investment in naked
sadistic
desire.
With pornographic performance,
we witness a whole lot of immodest sexual desire,
but with the current Executive Branch of addictive rape
and pillage performance,
we become unwillingly mesmerized
by a whole lot of immodest fear and war-mongering desire.
The rampant raging desire
to play Win-Lose 0-sum games
of naked entitlement for paternal supremacy
sadistically staged
on a WinAnthro/WinEarth
Constitutional and Biblical
polyamorous Original Intent
for a cooperatively living planet.
The key operative governance, administrative, executive skills,
word here is “unwholesome” v “wholesome.”
Certainly we aren’t intending to legislate what is
marked by arousing, sometimes even immodestly so,
but still wholesome investments
in swelling democratic desire.
Wholesome is about regenerative life
polyculturally inclusive evolution,
sacredly nurturing democracy’s organic revolution
Co-redemptive peak political experiences,
bipartisan safe,
healthy choices,
even as these will inevitably lead, sometimes,
on our best compassion and pleasure days,
toward spirit-expanding natural ecstasies.
This, to me,
and for my extending multi-generational,
multi-cultural family,
sounds more like a mandate to co-invest
in health and safety industries,
with or without THC,
rather than investing further in the prurient,
inebriated,
unwholesomeness
of a nakedly sadistic
toilet twittering
White-Supremacist Castle.
