A blood soaked Arthur IS RISING

Gonzo journalism and fiction is a tricky mix.... Welcome to my razor's edge.

HELLO THERE...

I am an elf in the attic making mind toys with sharp edges; an educated writer who gets good reviews, who you can read for free in the rough form of first drafts on the web, or purchase in a book form.
The best soldier does not attack. The superior fighter succeeds without violence. The greatest conqueror wins without struggle. The most successful manager leads without dictating. This is intelligent non aggressiveness. This is called the mastery of men.

Welcome to you, I am John Scott Ridgway, Novelist, Poet, Blogger, Radio and TV writer and actor... five books, also paint in oils and acrylics. I am poet warrior of sorts, a non violent radical, personally, though understanding of those who choose other paths IN THE EIGHTY PLUS COUNTRIES AT LAST COUNT THAT came in this blog ...

The predicted revolutions in the USA and around the would are going to


be violent in the next twenty years, is what the CIA says. I want them to stay peaceful, which is the only way to win this struggle between haves and have nots. They have more guns, we have more people,, and they include the mothers and sisters and brothers of the people they will ask to fight us.... I think they underestimate the police.

NEVER ACCEPT APPEASEMENT OVER JUSTICE. By any means necessary is the reality. . . the USA can be spared stupid wars, but other countries. . . need different solutions. . .

The number of Countries that have come in to have a look at this blog humbles me. Thank you very much.


NEVER UNDERESTIMATE HOW MUCH I DESPISE VIOLENCE

EXCEPT UNDER EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES BY

PROFESSIONALS, HOPEFULLY, like the police, military, etc...

understanding that violence is sometimes needed

does not mean I like anything about the sound

of fists hitting faces

Boxing is too much for me

make me feel like I am watching

dog fights with toothless pitbulls


"I am an artist first, and a politician second," as John Lennon said.

My intentions are to stop the violence from entering into

revolutionary wars

the CIA

predicts


will break out in the next twenty years all over the

world, including here...

But Ill tell ya,

if there is not some redistribution of

wealth here there and everywhere

WE WILL WITNESS THE HORROR

THE HORROR

OF WAR ON all OUR SHORES




My intentions is to keep these protests peaceful

so we can win

without bloodshed



Total War for Total Peace

Never incites violence

or destroys property

you should be able

to go to protests with strollers and babies

parents feeling as safe as the police


Now, poetry...


I am too far out into the battlefield to retreat. This CHARGE is win or die...




PROPHECIES OF ECSTASIES AND HORRORS


A blood soaked Arthur has risen



be aware

be very aware


total war
for total peace
is being fought
HERE

THERE will be many ways to die
and only one to live
give and give and give
until the worlds downtrodden and oppressed
can begin to forgive
before things get bloody and ruthless
My Peace sign shot full of holes
and my reason ignored
drowned out by the roar of machine guns

You cannot break the golden rule
all the time and not expect
consequences from nature
mankind


we will fight for our right to thrive as well
we do not accept your sentence
to poverty so you can earn more
by shipping the factory off to China
WE ACCEPT NO CHAINS...
BREAK THOSE WE HAVE
COME RUNNING FOR OUR OPPRESSORS
WHO THE HELL WOULDN'T???


nothing this mindgame in america can do to us
can destroy this thing inside that yearns for freedom
enough to die in the name of JUSTICE
generation after generation
from time
immemorial










No more hyper-reality FOR US. We have already spent too long in an oasis of belief where nothing is wrong, folks... Now, we must face this was all a mirage... and try like hell to get out of this desert... or resolve ourself to the fact that we will leave our children to starve in the barren sands.


There are better ways to defeat an enemy than an outright fight, especially if you are vastly outnumbered, like the Elite. MSM PSY-WAR allows them to control our actions through our thoughts, and basically stop our FORCE from activating. I am not saying we should fight just because we can win, I am just saying we should fight before we lose, if no other option is left us.... because a world is at stake.

  • You are a spark in dry timber, stopped from becoming a roaring flame
    only by -- YOUR OWN DISBELIEF IN YOUR POWER TO IGNITE...
    They SET UP LAWS THAT ALLOW THEM TO STEAL. MURDER. BRAINWASH THEIR CRITICS. We must begin to feel challenged now to stop them. Or WE WILL LOSE EVERYTHING. PERIOD. THE SKY, OTHER SPECIES, OUR WATER... OUR MINDS. No more hyper-reality for us... too long in that oasis where nothing is wrong folks... we must face this is all a mirage.
    • OUR LACK OF RESOLVE TO CHANGE OUR WORLD MUST PUZZLE THE GODS THEMSELVES.... how can we be this collectively dum? And if we are....then the brains will be looked to as potential saviors.... when all too often they are just psocyo-paths and stooges and scared folks under the gun who are ALLOWED to CON EVERYONE... FOR THE GOOD OF A




A cruel slap woke me to the PAIN
at the moment of birth;
My first cry was NO
buried in unintelligible screams.
I am a man now.
Now I catch your hand and break all the fingers.

the promise


You must be whoever the enemy fears the least
or fears the most.

No other position is saf

Welcome to the spark that inflames TOTAL WAR FOR TOTAL PEACE.

I am too far out into the battlefield to retreat. This CHARGE is win or die...

THE ELVES ATTIC is stories, poetry, essay's, peculiar events in my life . . . oil painting, articles.


Your patience for bearing with me on my first drafts is a much appreciated kindness. Your worldwide interest is my muse . . .Lately I have been writing a book called Gangsta General x, about a revolutionary in the USA, who is fighting to keep the revolt peaceful as things spin out of control in the states after a famine gets the populace hungry enough to change their society once and for all....



HOW TO USE THIS BLOG: There is a black and white jukebox in the right column that you can shut off, or find songs on.... To listen to the COMEDY SKITS FROM THE SHOW PEACE AND PIPEDREAMS... turn off the black jukebox, and turn on the Green one. I play Moon Bong Haze and Jesus...

I have five majors, five books, two tv shows, a radio show, 76 countries at last count on this site alone, and over a million online readers to my credit. I can't thank any of you enough for all of your help and encouragement over the years; the favors and aide that has been offered me, the trust in my leadership... you are all SACRED TO ME ... even you folks I tend to hate.

TOTAL WAR FOR TOTAL PEACE -- Thank you especially. Your sacrifices live on. I salute you... and SWEAR ON THE GODS OF MY FATHERS THAT WE WILL TRIUMPH AND YOUR DEATHS WILL BE PAID FOR IN BLOOD AND TREASURE.

Thank you.

The Terrified leading the numb and the restless... after critical changes

You can look in my blog for this poem's first draft, and compare it to this one if you want to see how I edit. 




Stakes are high and getting higher
most are chips on the table
we don't get to play no cards
get bought and sold on the whims
bluffs and fortunes
of the real players
sold for sex/to addiction
idle victims of an emotionless Market
basic goddamn cruel and blind economics
rewards the elite/ and lets the peasants starve

they capture the rebellious now in hidden webs
Total Information Awareness:
combining every fact on a person
every phone call, email, text, film
law broken/disease/book borrowed or bought/
every brush with authority/every grade/upbringing

all the ingredients of mind
the dictionary of your personal world
defined and calculated and defined by the latest greatest psychiatric theory

they will process us through computer programs
that projects how you and you and you
will live a life
how accurate will They Great They decide the machine has to define us to lock us up?
how many times they have filmed us at protests
will determine how worthy of a target you are
for their intrusion
into your day to day

targeted by the very government you sought to love and cherish and save
they
prevent our voices from getting unto any podiums
of wealth, fame or prestige

a variation of China's complete control of what artists say
they want us to be completed by their newspapers
as they played out a reality of the  far right and center left
leaving every other voice margenalized
not covered by the local news
voiceless in their television world

so bad in the states that Noam Chomsky said no leftist papers
can survive the corporate pressures applied
and  he was reminded as much on the 30th anniversary of such a paper in Mexico
one...  just one...

Now... the internet has taken the word from our unholy masters
democratized the word
in a way no movie, play, or tv show was ever allowed
A pandora's box of politics has flown open

the stars have fallen to the earth

exploding into sparks

igniting the righteous fires

here we are free to throw our voices

into the intellectual morass

to deconstruct/decontaminate -- accuse and destroy

I foster private visions of a day when the word is democratized

the words spoken from the lips of a beggar as important as a president's

stoned and wounded and dreaming hard on vengence
I stagger across the pages drunk with the power of a genie
who has smashed his bottle
equalities greatest tool has been accessed
there is no turning around
no television is going to control us again
the masses are officially in revolt

there will be no positive thinking personality deprived losers paying 9 grand to die

in a psuedo-native american sweat lodge

for god'/s fucking sake

following the preachings of an Ophra approved shyster

the yuppies sweated out their vital juices seeking the elusive truths

that make the human emotions 'happy' 'content' slaves of the Market


those who can think outside of their own heads
spend lifetimes pondering how to bring peace to this world
how to make a boarder less mentality
a world of fair democracies joined together by their shared values
where the concerns of a few entrenched interests
cannot band together to prevent the government
from stopping the rising deaths of our uninsured

agents play the game and use you like a carny pumping a mark
like a stock broker selling and buying you stock just to get a commission

predators milking the infinite tit for a little stolen mother-milk
damn the babies they starve with their habits
