FIRST DEMONSTRATION 84
The time of youth who say what they see
And what they see are naked kings
The only defeat is a Judas fear
The more you are told all is well
The less you believe the adverts
There are far more of us
Than them
Never forget that
Every day is another mission
Quiet with violence, psychotic in euphoria
No limit to what can be achieved here
Meditate and concentrate
Infiltrate the threat
Our mob was watched by buisnessmen
Who laughed from concrete battlements
As police on horseback rode forth
To trample banners and intimidate palid teens
Arrested for flower picking
For five vaguely heroic hours
The City of London was stopped
Jammed with young ideals
Of course all the deals went through
Via computer wires and handshakes
Perhaps it was messages to the converted
Maybe all were photographed and filed
But time to time
For self expression
One must stand up and be ignored.
/// I still regret not having gone on the Poll Tax demonstration,
but made up for it in 91 on one to stop David Irving give a lecture
about the Holocaust being exaggerated. As in 84, („Stop the City‘)
this demo failed, but of course everyone there would like to think the
point was
made somewhere. Free speech for ALL is paramount, this must include
those who the vocal minority think evil. That is the wide picture I have
but
I almost never feel this way full time. Prague a few weeks ago, saw the
same type of protestors against the IMF and the World Bank.(TYPED 2000)
Here, many were far more organised - strange for anarchists and the
doctrine
of chaos. During the anti- facist march, I saw pensioners, skinny teens
and
socailists etc, the leaders chanted through megaphones about ‘the facist
police
protecting the racists as usual’. I saw they were protecting us- none of
the
crowd I saw could have fought the skinheads who spilled out of the pub
with
metal bars,with that dead shark/human bloodlust look. I chose to walk
away
at that point without too much guilt.. The last demo I went on, was in
Prague,
outside the Chinese Embassy, where underlings of theirs climbed the
walls
to take photos of us and the names of Tibetan prisoners on banners.
Because of us, those in captivity were probably beaten. This, I regret
deeply.
Until I am more holy, I say once again, TO HELL FOREVER WITH THE ONES
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MURDERS IN TIANNAMEN SQUARE AND TIBET.
(You should have seen what was written there before I set this for the
website…)
According to the yin/yang and the sacred Tao, their time is ending..///
