Finally A Few Auspicious Signs
sad saga of modern use technology
reads as history of party exploitation
by dictators especially during purges
technology used to spy buy suppress
exploit with state manipulated mass
media information fed machine regime
dictators seized state reins rode rough
straight over chained political victims
suddenly a few signs of hope on horizons
global as wikiLeaks champions citizens
rights to know to access key information
in an age where information is power
starved public are finally empowered
able to read past disinformation deceit
thousands of WikiLeaks released documents
diplomatic cables from US embassy in Cairo
prove truth can seed democracy desires instill
courage in ravished suppressed hearts inflame
civilians born under sinister rule of secret police
'Amned Daula' and 'Moochabarat' cry freedom

Proven Criminality Of Mubarak Terror Regime
“Thousands of WikiLeaks

the US embassy in Cairo.
Prove the Barak Obama

regime held onto power
by terrorizing Egyptians.”
“US Ambassador Margaret
Scobey in a cable dated
January 15,2009. The letter
calls police brutality “routine
and pervasive” and states that
“police using force to extract
confessions from criminals [is]
a daily event.” A daily shame
written in blood screaming pain
“routine and pervasive” torture.”
Embassy informants “estimate
there are literally hundreds of
torture incidents every day in
Cairo police stations alone.”
Did you ever calculate the cost?
Credibility cost of supporting
a torture terror evil vile regime?
Did you never wonder why
Egypt's police are hated feared?
Loathed with justified intensity?
The first two stanzas are the poem ‘The Mubarak Torture Regime’.

Mubarak Stalinate Resurrection Plans
the Stalinate resurrection
continues his ego shamed
chaos festering plans
proof a Russian trained
communist die hard
dictator at heart cares nothing
for real suffering of oppressed
pawn common people
in all Egyptian lands
dinosaur die hard
dictators deserve to be global due date
chastised dissected
reined in
chewed up
spat out
reinstate multiple party state
dismantle Mubarak legacy
secret police breed
overhaul 'Amned Daula'
State Security torture dogs
'Moochabarat' impede
both secret police agencies
brutally powerful plague
agent sweeping powers
wielding decades old
Emergency Law abuses
as state security thug exploits
a state security essentially
doing whatever it wants

Obama Witch Hunted For Exposing Diplomatic Deceit?
generation slaves are afraid to win freedom
afraid to flex mind muscles face hard truths
cow tow to masters wear ownership brands
afraid to think to know own rulership truths
what Robin Hood hero must brave arise in new age
oppose illuminati enslavement liberty stolen orders
who dares publish US secret diplomatic spy cables
WikiLeaks website will tear spin strip bare web lies
only one prime question remains on international soap
opera stage will British peons sacrilege destroy sanctity
of global embassies' diplomatic status in spite revenge
because Assange was bold leaking government secrets?
who fool script wrote UK using terrorist tactics to storm
an embassy in style remix Iranian railroaded false charges
past model CIA hit South American too quickly forgotten?
spy umbrella stabbing public fatal poison lacks warnings?
ah US hotel honey pot plot worked well shamed IMF man?
hooker maid was good ploy until exposed past in kangaroo court?
countries supposedly civilized democratic pillars of freedom
dropp the ball in big picture persecute prime intelligence threat?
use all tax payer powers of a powerful state against an unarmed
Australian courageous individual is not a script to be proud of?
Britain studies PLO raid plans to storm Ecuadorean embassy?
To support US political motivated Swedish trumped up charges?
Will South American governments defend freedom of speech?
Or will a man be Obama witch hunted for exposing diplomatic
deceit; political foreign invasion; occupation conspiracy lies?
Assange has courageously exposed an orchestrated litany of lies?
To delet the diplomatic status of an embassy; to arbitrarily
revoke the immunity of embassies would be a crime worthy;
of Nazi Germany Iran North Korea but no threat to withdraw;
diplomatic status is an insane UK 'hostile and intolerable act'?

Mubarak Egyptian Protests Threatens Suez Oil
Mubarak had given
a coded speech
on nationwide Egyptian
state television
Mubarak supporters listen
recognized his decision
immediately instantly
the answer to where many
of dictators secret police went
was answered in brutality
Tahrir Square 2nd February
'Amned Daula' 'Moochabarat'
sinister secret police of Egypt
who immune have held Emergency
Powers thirty stain years kept
since Emergency Law was swiftly
passed after Egypt’s President Sadat
was assassinated such a tragedy
succeeding dictator henchmen security
torture with Mubarak total immunity
Mubarak security supporters provoked
blood letting upon peacefully assembling
protesters in Tahrir Square after ordering
teargas rubber bullets baton charges in
days earlier secret police tactic brutality
to beat isolated protesters with iron bars
was routine for protest eradication policy
now administration frustration hits streets
demons are out of bottle and upon the street
modern tactics retrocede into mystic Bedouin
camel charge loud sound of liberty bell rings
an Egyptian falcon freedom sands soaring flies
wind of change is blowing protests
are not going to effect your country
except in increased national poverty
oil prices increasing to $100 dollars
plus a barrel an eighth of the world's
shipping goes through the Suez channel
Mubarak closed all Egyptian banks
shipping companies cannot pay access
the ports of Alexandria etc are closed
or on skeleton crews ships cannot
refuel in Egypt Mubarak has now played
his cards the poor will suffer but not
world elite leaders bankers corporations
solution must be found now immediate
if Egypt’s people will not end protests
elite will end Mubarak rule inconvenient?

People Power. A rant.
The people’s voice so long suppressed.
Has now been forcibly expressed
Egyptians want democracy.
The world is waiting now to see
if their demands meet with success.
The winds of change are blowing free.
So tyrants sleep uneasily
They fear to hear the people’s voice
but really they have little choice.
If people choose democracy.
They can no longer rule by force.
Its time to take a different course.
The people have the power to
discard the old bring in the new.
By just resisting passively.
I have no doubt that some will die
As the dictators vainly try.
To cling to power at any cost
a battle that’s already lost.
The people will sweep them away.
The western world must wait and
see what happens next uneasily.
We have no right to interfere
although we have good cause to fear.
The power games that people play.
The world is changing rapidly.
Because of new technology.
Information is exchanged,
the internet has rearranged.
What people are allowed to say.
They have the opportunity
to state their views quite openly
For and against the government.
Although it seems that discontent
is the major force in play..
The peoples will is paramount
They will demand a close account.
From those they give authority
to take control and over see.
the changes that they need today..
Perhaps we too need to review.
A process which is over due
Our concept of democracy
at least our foreign policy..
We do not have the right to say.
What other countries ought to do
Because they are entitled to.
Do whatever they think best
to pacify the deep unrest.
the people have the final say.
If they decide to give assent
to a form of government.
Which may not be democracy
but suits the vast majority.
We have no reason for dissent.
We may quite well learn something new
That makes us take a different view.
Of the systems now in place.
By which we choose our government.
Which do not work as they were meant..
The powers that be may disagree.
Because they do not want to see.
The fault and flaws that now exist.
Although they preach democracy
They breach the rules in secrecy.
Although they may control the press
and the media more or less.
They can’t control the internet.
If they are wise they’ll recognise
That people can see through their lies.

Inside Information
One man to the left
One man to the right
One man in the middle
One man dressed in white
One man in the east
One man from the west
One man in the middle
One man under house arrest
(step back)
Get hooked on the power
Gotta stay in the game
Be the man of the hour
Gotta make a name for yourself
And the lady waits, so patiently
She waits for the call
She knows just what you need
You need inside, information
Information at a very high price
She gives you inside, information
That can change your whole life overnight,
In a minute
One man to the left
One man to the right
One man in the middle
Caught in the broad daylight
Just a man on the street
Another face in the crowd
One man on the beat
Wants everything that hes not allowed
And the lady waits, so patiently
She waits for the call
She knows just what you need
You need inside, information
She can get it at a very high price
A little, inside, information
It can change your whole life overnight
With a little inside, information
You get money, you get power, you get it all
Yeah but that inside, information
Can leave you waiting for that hammer to fall
(let it fall)
She gets that inside, information
Information at a very high price
With that inside, information
Its danger with each roll of the dice
You want that inside, information
Take the money, take the power, take it all
Take that inside, information
But get ready cause the hammer will fall
Its gonna fall
Inside, information
Inside, information
Is she telling you straight
Is she telling you straight
Is she telling you straight

I think that there are changes that have occurred in technology that make is that more people can have the same level of information that I have. My advantage is that I'm very good at interpreting the information.

Well, there's a question as to what sort of information is important in the world, what sort of information can achieve reform. And there's a lot of information. So information that organizations are spending economic effort into concealing, that's a really good signal that when the information gets out, there's a hope of it doing some good.

Shadows Of Twentieth Century Dictatorships
At last at last finally sinister purges are passing past.
Shadow legacy of twentieth century absolute dictators
decades on last totalitarian governments passing past.
Lands where the ruling party is only old party allowed.
The dictator of Tunisia has already people opposed fled.
President of Yemen unpopular promised power to shed.
Dictator of Egypt has again soiled bloodied ruling hands.
Just question of time before tyranny is driven from sands.
surrealist cartoon: thug supporters of lame duck Egyptian
president Mubarak caused an ugly scene with clubs stones
troops did not intervene how obscene as donkeys mounted
on camels and horses charged into Tahrir Square hoping to
do gang victory laps after prison releases to beat up crowds
of innocent trapped peaceful anti-mubarak protesters as all
spectator Egyptian military soldiers stood back did nothing
but watch watch watch fighting rise up around them unable
to do their job fighting to protect civilians thus pro-Mubarak
forces advanced beyond line military trucks throwing stones
other more cowardly thug monkeys climbed near high-rises
rocks projectiles to throw down monkey style on protesters
in the square stampeded as trouble broke out but never fear
secret police monkeys gutless after beating chained victims
for years in custody cells could not withstand fair fight back
unchained men were an eventual match for monkey mobsters
opposition groups claim Mubarak sent in thugs to suppress
protest which wounded his ego to avenge a dictator’s name.

Clear Simple Insight
Who walks with gift
of clear simple insight
in an age of mass media
seas of on line wave information
clouds of plan political deceit
quick sands quick disinformation?
Beautiful sentiments
written with clarity
of clear crystal insight
excellent expressions
of lessens all should learn
becomes wisdom quotation.
A few grains of golden truth
scattered dust in river sands
washed clear by swift current
deposited upon river banks
are wit of one wisdom of many

Who Rules Once Great Republic Of Egypt?
Who rules once great Republic of Egypt
and by what authority does ye beast rule?
Emergency Laws imposed in 1967
to suspend executive legislative
judicial powers rights freedoms
Mubarak cannot get order restored
after decades passing he never can...
throw off iron yoke noble Egyptians
crimes torture of secret 'Amned Daula'
'Moochabarat' are curse plague infests
golden grains of freedom seeking sands
stir stir toil cause trouble stir a demon brew
newsflash: In an unprecedented escape
17000 hardened criminals escaped prisons
how bizarre strange extraordinary so many
did not hide to prolong ensure their freedom
no Mubarak arranged their escape thus these
thugs fled to Tahrir Square armed themselves
with clubs knives stones joined hands with
secret security police to attack unarmed noble
peaceful protesters; oops 150 secret police
caught with their police identity papers stupid
stupid stupid move by demented dictator
Mubarak with hag henchmen gather covens
to promote means to justify Emergency Laws
to keep heinous atrocities firm hold on power
newsflash: Vice President firm suppressive
intelligence friend of Minister of Prisons escape
announces Emergency Laws must be kept
in place as a matter of Egyptian State Security
17000 hardened criminals have escaped
Emergency Laws are needed to track down all
escaped criminals in decades dark deceit style
oppression sown cruel deeds justification evil
crouching cloak is party uniform must remain
President Mubarak Stalinate dictator resurrection
continues his ego shamed chaos festering plans
Mubarak will not lease throttle hold on Egypt land.
Emergency Laws needed to crush protest hearts.

This Thing Known As Power
This thing known as power is an addictive thing
And those who do have it to it try to cling
Abuse of power we do read of and hear of every day
Not all who have power use it in a good way
Dictators use the power that they have to suppress
And where Dictators rule you won't find happiness
They cling to their power by the medium of fear
Only of crimes against Humanity of their oppressive regimes we do hear
Power used in a good way happiness does create
And those who use their power for the good we ought to celebrate
Benevolent people with great power are becoming more rare
But blessed are those who for others do care
That philanthropic people are not many does seem sad to say
And of abuse of power we do read of and hear of every day.

No Binding Referendums Allowed Mar 3rd,2011
The polls say this or that but what about the questions asked?
Bent questions wanting bent answers where the truth is often masked,
Where elite establishment media get what they need,
Binding referendums will remain unknown and that's agreed.
Without referendums, we should have proportional representation,
Because first past the post can be a misrepresentation,
Because the combined opposition had more votes than the winner,
Therefore the people didn’t vote for that winning sinner.
But this information is quietly swept under the rug,
And the winning political party is so very smug,
Unfortunately this is not politically correct information,
They certainly don’t want it broadcast in our great nation.
