Song of Democracy


 Song of Democracy
Walt Whitman
(H. B)
An old man's thoughts of school,
An old man's gathering youthful memories and
     blooms that youth itself cannot.

Now only do I know You,
O fair auroral skies  -  O morning dew upon the grass!

And these I see, these sparkling eyes,
These stores of mystic meaning, these young lives,
Building, equipping like a fleet of ships, immortal ships,
Soon to sail out over the measureless seas,
On the soul's voyage.

Only a lot of boys and girls?
Only the tiresome spelling, writing, ciphering classes?
Only a public school?
Ah more, infinitely more.

And you America,
Cast you the real reckoning for your present?
The lights and shadows of your future, good or evil?
To girlhood, boyhood look, the teacher and the school.

Sail, Sail thy best, ship of Democracy,
Of value is thy freight, 'tis not the present only,
The Past  is also stored in thee.
Thou holdest not the venture of thyself alone,
    not of thy Western continent alone.
Earth's resume entire floats on thy keel, O ship,
    is steadied by thy spars,
With thee Time voyages in trust, the antecedent
    nations sink or swim with thee.
With all their ancient struggles, martyrs, heroes,
    epics, wars, thou bear'st the other continents,
Theirs, theirs as much as thine, the destination  -
     port triumphant;
Steer then with good strong hand and wary eye
    O helmsman, thou carriest great companions,
Venerable priestly Asia sails this day with thee,
And royal feudal Europe sails with thee.
And royal feudal Europe sails with thee.
Whitman's birthplace (Home)

Pippi Longstocking & Astrid Lindgren


  Pippi Longstocking & Astrid Lindgren
Pippi Langkous - Inger Nilsson (born in 1959) is a Swedish actress. She started her career 9 years old, when playing the main role in the tv-series based on Astrid Lindgren's famous children's books about Pippi Longstocking.

Never argue with children
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.
The little girl said: "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah?"
The teacher asked: "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him."

 UK's Separatists win In European elections.  UKIP Leader Nigel Farage had  very nasty Anti- european, anti -immigration campaign.and UKIP  is  winner.
After European elections results UKIP' Leader Nigel Farage said The UK Independence Party is a truly national force and has "momentum" behind it,  , UKIP won 27.5% of the vote and had 24 MEPs elected; Labour, on 25.4%, narrowly beat the Tories into third place while the Lib Dems lost all but one of their seats and came sixth behind the Greens..
Farage hails 'extraordinary win' as Ukip wins 24 Euro seats...'

 24  racists Euro seats! UKIP is UK's radical racist party like Marine Le Pen's 'French National Front' in France, what they want now in EU Parliament?
1. Develop Racism In Europe

Fascists coming back to France,  France back in back!LOL... Fuck yeah Le Pen's FN is the winner with very nasty, anti-Semitic past and present....

Faithful Ruslan


   Faithful Ruslan
Georgi Vladimov's novel  Faithful Ruslan is a Story of a Guard Dog, this harrowing allegory of obedience to authority is esteemed as “one of the defining literary texts of the post-Stalin period.
 Guard dog ('Stalin's dog'); special breed of dogs created to guard Gulag prisoners.  Ruslan is a bewildered prison dog set free after the demolition of a Siberian gulag camp. Trained to guard and herd, and after demolition he misses his terrible master whom he has unconditionally loved,  Ruslan and his fellow guard dogs dutifully wait for the arrival of new prisoners...
After the demolition of a Siberian gulag camp, Ruslan doesn't know what to do, where to find food, or where to live, only cold and hunger, he only knows the way of the Service, and using all his resources and intelligence finds a new prisoner to guard.
  It's great book one of the best books that I've ever read explaining the human psyche, especially the phenomena of brainwashing and propaganda,  fear and love, “Master” can impose on masses.....
 In our century 'Faithful dogs' is still waiting for his masters...  They are still  millions of people and they are everywhere, 'faithful dogs' would happily lick the boots of a new “Master” and the more cruel the “Master”...It's very sad story...
 Faithful Ruslan is the best novel of the 20th century in Russian Literature.

The Ruling Class


"The Ruling Class" (1972) one of the most brilliant satires in film history,  was directed by Peter Medak., the sensationally subversive script was written by Peter Barnes
Britain's aristocrats, their brutal and reactionary values, and their pervasive influence on society come in for a well-deserved thumping.
Peter O'Toole in "The Ruling Class' is unique as almost always...
K. S

When did I realize I was God? 
Well, I was praying 
and I suddenly realized I was talking to myself.
Peter O'Toole
Are you there father? It's me, you.

 'So if you are a racist

            K. Shiuka

 Racist Friend

If you have a racist friend
Now is the time, now is the time for your friendship to end
Be it your sister
Be it your brother
Be it your cousin or your, uncle or your lover
If you have a racist friend
now is the time, now is the time for your friendship to end
Be it your best friend
Or any other
Is it your husband or your father or your mother?
Tell them to change their views
Or change their friends
Now is the time, now is the time, for your friendship to end
So if you know a racist who thinks he is your friend
Now is the time, now is the time for your friendship to end
Call yourself my friend?
Now is the time to make up your mind, don't try to pretend
Be it your sister
Be it your brother
Be it your cousin or your uncle or your lover
So if you are a racist
Our friendship has got to end
And if your friends are racists don't pretend to be my friend
So if you have a racist friend
Now is the time, now is the time for our friendship to end...
