Clearly, the Chinese need the resources, but I don't think they want to clash with the industrial world which happens to be the market for their goods.

That appropriation of resources and the transformation of them into goods and services through the European production system characterized, and characterizes to this day, all industrial systems including the information age.

My Big Bro
We spend hours together
like best buds do.
Know how the saying goes,
you laugh, I laugh.
We share something more
special than normal families.
We are friends in my
world.
You and I both know
I'm crazy
and I make your head hurt.
But I know you
believe in me.
Magnets clash together
you can pull them apart.
Eventually they will clash
and be together again.
Thats me and you
two magnets that seem to clash
once in a while we will be pulled apart.
Eventually we will clash
together again.
My big brother
and everything to me.
People might think they've
figured you out
deep down I know they
shouldnt unpredict you.
No matter what you will
always cease to amaze me.

Rage The World
Supposed developed country
embarked upon
quested industrial rivalry.
Seduces all innards parts.
Chinese mentality
challenges
with unhinged reality.
Corpulent Later Day Capitalists.
Earth rape embryo
pristine natural resources.
Shame righteous scream protesting
misguided shame.
Chinese Taiwanese Japanese
all is same to offended Greenies.
Protesting, adrift, drift-net fishing, mentality.
Rape Humanities Sea.
Conservation Moderation
is expletive obscenity
empty phraseology to excessive Asia.
Intoxication is exploitation
to such power craven
overindulgent modernization freaks.
In mass programmed request
for nationalistic gory glory.
In 1989, the year of this poems writing, China Taiwan and Japan in that order, were reported as the three worst countries in the world; using drift-net fishing nets, with a mesh so small, no breeding sized fish could escape the net. No breeding stock, no next generation of fish as a sustainable resource. Has anything changed?

Black Market Payoff Blood Ivory Pyramid
Chinese government
shame covert secret
blood run ivory policy
wise rats don't talk sell...
to honest foreigners
non-Chinese buyers
Chinese government
customs bribed officials...
demand their silence
cut $100,000 US
dollars a small container
of illegal black market...
African ivory capitalist smiles
where are Chinese heroes?
not in power not in politics
not in party in protest jails...

The Everbusy Chinese!
The Chinese in shops work from dawn to dusk.
Quick they are with gadgets and selling things.
Good are their prawn cakes, fish soups and scents with musk.
All kinds of goods, their business brings
To the Aussie market, where they are the Kings.
From electronic to foodstuffs we find cheap
To help a juggler, a sharp knife, a girl flings
In the Fed.square and a big hand does she reap.
They imitate new things and in joy they leap.

If the world market believed that we were serious about energy independence and we were going to utilize all of our own existing resources, the speculators would stop speculating up they start speculating down as we get our own oil out of the ground.

The Goods Gone
I know when Ive had enough
When I think your love is rough
Chorus:
The goods gone
The goods gone
The goods gone
The goods gone
The goods gone out of our love
I know its wrong
We should enjoy it, but
The goods gone
The goods gone
Once we used to get along
Now, each time we kiss, its wrong
(chorus)
Now it aint no fun
And the goods gone now
We used to love as one
But we have forgotten now
I know when Ive had enough
When I think your love is rough
(chorus)
Its gone forever

Man is for destruction
Utilization of resources
In a way is destruction of resources.
Deprivation of resources
In a way is conservation of resources.
Man existence is destruction.

The Irony of Bloody Sweet
They spend more
huge budgets for war
excited about the prize
a lucrative enterprise
weapons in silos
and despair in ghettos
They caress warheads
foreplay of the living dead
Then missile rain
And splattered flesh
sweet blood stain
as ‘civilizations’ clash
Genocide redefined
Holocaust modified
Extraordinary rendition
Quaint Geneva Convention
Torture legalized
Free speech penalized
Tyranny coated in civility
threatens true democracy
………..
Gods of commerce
Trading the curse
Commercial religion
Converts souls to confusion
Maybe to oblivion?
…………
Sweat shop slavery
In third world country
Inferior toxic goods
Flooding the hoods
virus’ manufactured
as vaccines administered
earth base ravaged
resources mismanaged
psychos are rulers
worshipping the dollars
Elections bought and sold
Trading souls for gold
They get multiple orgasms
Delirious with the fever of sadism......

The Chinese Way
Take a journey back in time
Leave the western world behind
Cross the mountains to peking
Where the paper laterns gently swing
The chinese way
Who knows what they know
The chinese legend grows
My eyes wide open
I feel a breeze
Words softly spoken
In cantonese
Standing at the masters side
The with patience he confides
Secret knowledge - sacred ways
Paerls of wisdom from the dragon days
I could never lie
For honour I would lie
Following the chinese way
So many years ago heros ruled the world
(some died for love in a cruel world)
They were the only ones in a cruel world
I could never lie
For honour I would lie
Following the chinese way
From the mountains to peking
Where the paper laterns gently swing
The chinese way
Who knows what they know
The chinese legend grows

The other are the strategic, so-called strategic stocks that the United States and the other Western industrial countries have, which could put in as much as four million barrels a day of oil into the market pretty quickly.

Hold back some goods for a thousand days and you will be sure to sell at a profit.
To pretend to satisfy one's desires with worldly goods is like using straw to put out a fire.
Why Do You Post A Poem Posted Days Ago?
i notice it
you keep on posting
and reposting poems
days ago
like wares
in the flea market
left unsold
last sunday
on a monday
i see your
poem again
looks like
a commodity
and you the
poet becomes
the cheap
vendor
shouting
for the
possible
victim?
i see, poems
too are goods
that you display
over and over
again
and reading
them makes
me feel
like i am
this shopper
repelled
by this
persistent
hawker?
ok, today
is another
poetic market
day
excuse me,
how much
is that poem?
yes the one
with lesser words
the one that
is worn out
yes, the one
that never
sells
yes the one
that is
outmoded
discount, please.
