Whiteness is a trick...

Really?

Seriously? Seriously? I was never one for all this "stop snitching" "fuck the police" business, but seriously.

Fuck the police!

Siege Warfare

Like any good siege tactician,
I know the key to victory is patience
I can throw my forces against the walls day and night,
but a competent fortification will hold.

And even a successful breach is hardly a victory.
The Huns went around it
and the Mongols broke it
but their reigns were but fleeting footnotes in the annals of the earth's history.

I seek eternal conquest.
I seek total victory.
I seek to make my way in and destroy
all that is bad
and then repair and build all that is good
so that my subjects will live forever
oblivious to the evils of the world.

I must wait,
however long it takes
for the gates to open,
because walls are not mere trifles.
I must wait
however long it takes
because this is no Jericho,

I can play the trumpet,
but no tune will take these walls down.
I can march,
but no number of laps will take these walls down.

There is no prayer.
There are no words.
Only time will see the end of this battle.

I must wait,
because the riches that success would bring would last beyond time.
If one must wait an eternity for eternal wealth,
than so be it:

I shall wait.

I should...

...be a music critic. Really. I'm taking an online couse in Cultural Geography and I have to post responses to questions on a discussion board for a small grade. The most recent question was "just for fun" meaning we'd get an A for our responses as long as we gave it the tiniest bit of though. We were asked to check out a youtube video of a band from Tijuana that plays a supposedly new genre of techno called "NorTec" (from norteno and techno). We were supposed to just write about what we think. So yeah, I wrote what I thought...

What do I think of it? It's ridiculous. I'm a fan of electronic music and I couldn't stand it. More akin to modern trance music than any sort of techno heard today, this supposedly new genre sounds just as ridiculous as it's American ancestors and European counterparts. Sure, there are traditional norteno instruments being played live but that doesn't make it sound special, just novel. The musicians bob their head in the same obnoxious way as Moby at a live concert anyways. Heck, there's even the same repetitive phrase usuage, except instead of the usual German "Ich liebe techno sex, ja ja ja" it's "Sound machine, sound machine." I don't mean to knock 'em too hard, though. I hope they can at least get it played on a cheesy Mexican car commerical. If not, half the people listening to their music are on X anyways, so at least they'll have a loyal fan base...
...until they rip off all their clothes and run into traffic while screaming how sorry they for not rinsing the dishes before putting them in the washer.

I rule.
