What are you waiting for?
What is fu anyway? Or maybe I should say where. Where is fu? Somewhere between imaginary and real. In cyberspace. It can be a tough neighborhood with all the scams and phonies, but it's like that in the "real" world too. Still there is more reality here than a lot of places. The salute prooves that there is a real person behind the scenes. Something real is behind it, redeemable in good will and pictures. Unlike the economy where they just keep printing money that's really worth no more than the paper it's printed on.
most likely I will never meet any of you live and in person. Lucky for me I've got friends who love me down to my soul and I love them the same way. i've had to reduce my core group by 2 because of an unforgivable betrayal on their parts. Happens to the best of us sometimes. Some people are so afraid of everything, including themselves. If I mirror somebody's superficiality or cowardice back at them it doesn't give them the right to throw shit at the mirror.
Now I will soon leave America behind one last time. I did it in '68 as an alternative to going to Vietnam. It's even more fucked up now, in a different, faster more covertly cruel and inhumane way. Protest and dissent have be all but stamped out. Everybody but the GFB's (Greedy Fat Bastards) is too busy trying to survive to get into it much.
I have several blogs going but I feel comfortable here and I willl continue to post my continuing adventures for my fu family and friends, as well as anybody else who many be interested in an expatriate poet's journey.
Take everything exteranious away and the only thing that remains is love.
Stay tuned.
