All treaties between great states cease to be binding when they come in conflict with the struggle for existence.

The way I see things, the way I see life, I see it as a struggle. And there's a great deal of reward I have gained coming to that understanding - that existence is a struggle.

Dark Thinking
Dark thoughts entail visions of stupor,
Those in negativity happen on the plane
Of existence.
My existence happens all along its time,
Of existence there are some who entwine it,
Of something a goal pertains to a kick.
Darkness has tenets to behold, and materials
Construct a building of struggle, and this is war.
War and darkness interrogate you as you work,
Let open doors struggle for their state.

Great progress was made when arbitration treaties were concluded in which the contracting powers pledge in advance to submit all conflicts to an arbitration court, treaties which not only specify the composition of the court, but also its procedure.

The Disarmament Conference has become the focal point of a great struggle between anarchy and world order... between those who think in terms of inevitable armed conflict and those who seek to build a universal and durable peace.

The United States has made a massive effort since the end of the Second World War to secure the dominance of its films in foreign markets - an achievement generally pushed home politically, by writing clauses into various treaties and aid packages.

Our Dreams Are Wished
There is something wanted.
But,
With a low expectation.
Our dreams are wished.
But,
Denying their existence...
Creates conflict.
We choose to believe what we say,
To share,
As it is perceived to be received that way.
And yet,
It is the doubt we keep kept...
To check,
For referral purposes!
Our dreams are wished.
But,
Denying their existence...
Creates conflict.
And yet,
It is the doubt we keep kept...
To check,
For referral purposes!

The light that radiates from the great novels time can never dim, for human existence is perpetually being forgotten by man and thus the novelists discoveries, however old they may be, will never cease to astonish.

Don't Scream Too Loud Oct 18th,2012
No one in Ottawa pays attention no matter how loud you scream,
Aristocrats with titles and letters after their names on a team,
And death with dignity is not part of their party agenda,
They're busy at the moment in the Conga or maybe Uganda.
And we don't have binding referendums so there's nothing we can do
No set-date elections or compulsory voting rules but who knew?
And you can't vote for a senator because they too are appointees,
And you can't show your disappointment or that you're ill at ease.
Because Sue Rodriguez really got hers when she sought assistance,
They will probably not recognize your very existence,
Though many US states and EU countries have DWD now,
Death with dignity is something Ottawa will just not allow.

Some people suggest that the problem is the separation of powers. If you had a parliamentary system, the struggle for power would not result in such complex peace treaties that empower so many different people to pursue so many contradictory aims.

To Prove With Misguided Determination
Even upon their arrival,
Some will view them as aliens...
Or invaders.
But as leechers placed here to feed,
On a planet that allows this.
We've been blinded to believe we lead...
With limited consciousness,
That separates us from our own commonness.
And an awareness of that,
Has us in struggle and conflict...
To prove with misguided determination,
There is reason to exterminate our own existence.
Even upon their arrival,
Some will view them as aliens...
Or invaders,
To a way of life we choose to fight...
To the bitter end!
For purposes to control creation.
'That makes no sense! '
Really?
Tell me you are kidding?
