Clemenceau

misc

His frown brought terror to his foes, But now in twilight of his days The pure perfection of a rose Can kindle rapture in his gaze. Where once he swung the sword of wrath And peoples trembled at his word, With hoe he trims a pansied path And listens to a bird. His large of life was lived with noise, With war and strife and crash of kings: But now he hungers for the joys Of peace, and hush of homely things. His old dog nuzzles by his knee, And seems to say: 'Oh Master dear, Please do not ever part from me! We are so happy here.' His ancient maid, as sky draws dim, Calls to him that the soup grows cold. She tyrannises over him Who once held armies in his hold. With slippers, old skull-cap and shawl He dreams and dozes by the fire, Sighing: 'Behold the end of all, Sweet rest my sole desire. 'My task is done, my pen is still; My Book is there for all to see,-- The final triumph of my will, Ineffably, my victory. A Tiger once, but now a lamb, With frailing hand my gate I close. How hushed my heart! My life how calm! --Its crown a Rose.'

I'd prefer to leave things unsaid And so this song is for my friends And not some girl. I can't pretend That I'm cool with everything It's the breath I need to sing It's just like when he died and cops showed up Bearing bad news. I forgot All the details but they sucked Take my word it was fucked up I swear

Hey Hey Hillary

By Dean Friedman I met my love Hillary at the local distillery She was leaning so languidly, on the window sillery And I was glued to my seat as I gazed at her feat Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary My heart was hi-jacked. My lips were gobsmacked Her hair was shimmering. My brain was simmering Then my blood began to boil. My desire would not be foiled Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary Right then and there I made a vow I'm gonna make her mine somehow Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary My head was spinning like a top, as I offered her a cough drop And as she placed it on her tongue My stomach did a flip-flop When I invited her to dance That was the start of our romance Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary And though she's got her share of quirks Living with her has got its perks Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary Now we live the way we do, in our cozy little igloo Feasting on corn flakes, marzipan and hot cakes And when she leans against the sink, she's my saucy little sausage link Hey, Hey, Hillary, Hey, Hey, Hillary And though it may sound strange to say I thank my god everyday Hey, Hey, Hillary. Hey, Hey, Hillary Hey, Hey, Hillary…

The Secret of Primitive Accumulation Chap. 1.26

misc

                                   Karl Marx. Capital Volume One                                 Part VIII: Primitive Accumulation                 The Secret of Primitive Accumulation (Chap. 1.26) ---------------------------------------------------------------------     We have seen how money is changed into capital; how through capital surplus-value is made, and from surplus-value more capital. But the accumulation of capital presupposes surplus-value; surplus-value presupposes capitalistic production; capitalistic production presupposes the pre-existence of considerable masses of capital and of labour power in the hands of producers of commodities. The whole movement, therefore, seems to turn in a vicious circle, out of which we can only get by supposing a primitive accumulation (previous accumulation of Adam Smith) preceding capitalistic accumulation; an accumulation not the result of the capitalistic mode of production, but its starting point.     This primitive accumulation plays in Political Economy about the same part as original sin in theology. Adam bit the apple, and thereupon sin fell on the human race. Its origin is supposed to be explained when it is told as an anecdote of the past. In times long gone by there were two sorts of people; one, the diligent, intelligent, and, above all, frugal elite; the other, lazy rascals, spending their substance, and more, in riotous living. The legend of theological original sin tells us certainly how man came to be condemned to eat his bread in the sweat of his brow; but the history of economic original sin reveals to us that there are people to whom this is by no means essential. Never mind! Thus it came to pass that the former sort accumulated wealth, and the latter sort had at last nothing to sell except their own skins. And from this original sin dates the poverty of the great majority that, despite all its labour, has up to now nothing to sell but itself, and the wealth of the few that increases constantly although they have long ceased to work. Such insipid childishness is every day preached to us in the defence of property. M. Thiers, e.g., had the assurance to repeat it with all the solemnity of a statesman to the French people, once so spirituel. But as soon as the question of property crops up, it becomes a sacred duty to proclaim the intellectual food of the infant as the one thing fit for all ages and for all stages of development. In actual history it is notorious that conquest, enslavement, robbery, murder, briefly force, play the great part. In the tender annals of Political Economy, the idyllic reigns from time immemorial. Right and “labour” were from all time the sole means of enrichment, the present year of course always excepted. As a matter of fact, the methods of primitive accumulation are anything but idyllic.     In themselves money and commodities are no more capital than are the means of production and of subsistence. They want transforming into capital. But this transformation itself can only take place under certain circumstances that centre in this, viz., that two very different kinds of commodity-possessors must come face to face and into contact; on the one hand, the owners of money, means of production, means of subsistence, who are eager to increase the sum of values they possess, by buying other people’s labour power; on the other hand, free labourers, the sellers of their own labour power, and therefore the sellers of labour. Free labourers, in the double sense that neither they themselves form part and parcel of the means of production, as in the case of slaves, bondsmen, &c., nor do the means of production belong to them, as in the case of peasant-proprietors; they are, therefore, free from, unencumbered by, any means of production of their own. With this polarization of the market for commodities, the fundamental conditions of capitalist production are given. The capitalist system presupposes the complete separation of the labourers from all property in the means by which they can realize their labour. As soon as capitalist production is once on its own legs, it not only maintains this separation, but reproduces it on a continually extending scale. The process, therefore, that clears the way for the capitalist system, can be none other than the process which takes away from the labourer the possession of his means of production; a process that transforms, on the one hand, the social means of subsistence and of production into capital, on the other, the immediate producers into wage labourers. The so-called primitive accumulation, therefore, is nothing else than the historical process of divorcing the producer from the means of production. It appears as primitive, because it forms the prehistoric stage of capital and of the mode of production corresponding with it.     The economic structure of capitalist society has grown out of the economic structure of feudal society. The dissolution of the latter set free the elements of the former.     The immediate producer, the labourer, could only dispose of his own person after he had ceased to be attached to the soil and ceased to be the slave, serf, or bondsman of another. To become a free seller of labour power, who carries his commodity wherever he finds a market, he must further have escaped from the regime of the guilds, their rules for apprentices and journeymen, and the impediments of their labour regulations. Hence, the historical movement which changes the producers into wage-workers, appears, on the one hand, as their emancipation from serfdom and from the fetters of the guilds, and this side alone exists for our bourgeois historians. But, on the other hand, these new freedmen became sellers of themselves only after they had been robbed of all their own means of production, and of all the guarantees of existence afforded by the old feudal arrangements. And the history of this, their expropriation, is written in the annals of mankind in letters of blood and fire.     The industrial capitalists, these new potentates, had on their part not only to displace the guild masters of handicrafts, but also the feudal lords, the possessors of the sources of wealth. In this respect, their conquest of social power appears as the fruit of a victorious struggle both against feudal lordship and its revolting prerogatives, and against the guilds and the fetters they laid on the free development of production and the free exploitation of man by man. The chevaliers d’industrie, however, only succeeded in supplanting the chevaliers of the sword by making use of events of which they themselves were wholly innocent. They have risen by means as vile as those by which the Roman freedman once on a time made himself the master of his patronus.     The starting point of the development that gave rise to the wage labourer as well as to the capitalist, was the servitude of the labourer. The advance consisted in a change of form of this servitude, in the transformation of feudal exploitation into capitalist exploitation. To understand its march, we need not go back very far. Although we come across the first beginnings of capitalist production as early as the 14th or 15th century, sporadically, in certain towns of the Mediterranean, the capitalistic era dates from the 16th century. Wherever it appears, the abolition of serfdom has been long effected, and the highest development of the middle ages, the existence of sovereign towns, has been long on the wane.     In the history of primitive accumulation, all revolutions are epoch-making that act as levers for the capital class in course of formation; but, above all, those moments when great masses of men are suddenly and forcibly torn from their means of subsistence, and hurled as free and “unattached” proletarians on the labour-market. The expropriation of the agricultural producer, of the peasant, from the soil, is the basis of the whole process. The history of this expropriation, in different countries, assumes different aspects, and runs through its various phases in different orders of succession, and at different periods. In England alone, which we take as our example, has it the classic form.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------                                             Footnotes 1. In Italy, where capitalistic production developed earliest, the dissolution of serfdom also took place earlier than elsewhere. The serf was emancipated in that country before he had acquired any prescriptive right to the soil. His emancipation at once transformed him into a free proletarian, who, moreover, found his master ready waiting for him in the towns, for the most part handed down as legacies from the Roman time. When the revolution of the world-market, about the end of the 15th century, annihilated Northern Italy’s commercial supremacy, a movement in the reverse direction set in. The labourers of the towns were driven en masse into the country, and gave an impulse, never before seen, to the petite culture , carried on in the form of gardening.

Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus Chap. 21

misc

        I was soon introduced into the presence of the magistrate, an old benevolent man with calm and mild manners. He looked upon me, however, with some degree of severity, and then, turning towards my conductors, he asked who appeared as witnesses on this occasion.         About half a dozen men came forward; and, one being selected by the magistrate, he deposed that he had been out fishing the night before with his son and brother-in-law, Daniel Nugent, when, about ten o'clock, they observed a strong northerly blast rising, and they accordingly put in for port. It was a very dark night, as the moon had not yet risen; they did not land at the harbour, but, as they had been accustomed, at a creek about two miles below. He walked on first, carrying a part of the fishing tackle, and his companions followed him at some distance.         As he was proceeding along the sands, he struck his foot against something and fell at his length on the ground. His companions came up to assist him, and by the light of their lantern they found that he had fallen on the body of a man, who was to all appearance dead. Their first supposition was that it was the corpse of some person who had been drowned and was thrown on shore by the waves, but on examination they found that the clothes were not wet and even that the body was not then cold. They instantly carried it to the cottage of an old woman near the spot and endeavoured, but in vain, to restore it to life. It appeared to be a handsome young man, about five and twenty years of age. He had apparently been strangled, for there was no sign of any violence except the black mark of fingers on his neck.         The first part of this deposition did not in the least interest me, but when the mark of the fingers was mentioned I remembered the murder of my brother and felt myself extremely agitated; my limbs trembled, and a mist came over my eyes, which obliged me to lean on a chair for support. The magistrate observed me with a keen eye and of course drew an unfavourable augury from my manner.         The son confirmed his father's account, but when Daniel Nugent was called he swore positively that just before the fall of his companion, he saw a boat, with a single man in it, at a short distance from the shore; and as far as he could judge by the light of a few stars, it was the same boat in which I had just landed. A woman deposed that she lived near the beach and was standing at the door of her cottage, waiting for the return of the fishermen, about an hour before she heard of the discovery of the body, when she saw a boat with only one man in it push off from that part of the shore where the corpse was afterwards found.         Another woman confirmed the account of the fishermen having brought the body into her house; it was not cold. They put it into a bed and rubbed it, and Daniel went to the town for an apothecary, but life was quite gone.         Several other men were examined concerning my landing, and they agreed that, with the strong north wind that had arisen during the night, it was very probable that I had beaten about for many hours and had been obliged to return nearly to the same spot from which I had departed. Besides, they observed that it appeared that I had brought the body from another place, and it was likely that as I did not appear to know the shore, I might have put into the harbour ignorant of the distance of the town of —— from the place where I had deposited the corpse.         Mr. Kirwin, on hearing this evidence, desired that I should be taken into the room where the body lay for interment, that it might be observed what effect the sight of it would produce upon me. This idea was probably suggested by the extreme agitation I had exhibited when the mode of the murder had been described. I was accordingly conducted, by the magistrate and several other persons, to the inn. I could not help being struck by the strange coincidences that had taken place during this eventful night; but, knowing that I had been conversing with several persons in the island I had inhabited about the time that the body had been found, I was perfectly tranquil as to the consequences of the affair. I entered the room where the corpse lay and was led up to the coffin. How can I describe my sensations on beholding it? I feel yet parched with horror, nor can I reflect on that terrible moment without shuddering and agony. The examination, the presence of the magistrate and witnesses, passed like a dream from my memory when I saw the lifeless form of Henry Clerval stretched before me. I gasped for breath, and throwing myself on the body, I exclaimed, "Have my murderous machinations deprived you also, my dearest Henry, of life? Two I have already destroyed; other victims await their destiny; but you, Clerval, my friend, my benefactor—"         The human frame could no longer support the agonies that I endured, and I was carried out of the room in strong convulsions. A fever succeeded to this. I lay for two months on the point of death; my ravings, as I afterwards heard, were frightful; I called myself the murderer of William, of Justine, and of Clerval. Sometimes I entreated my attendants to assist me in the destruction of the fiend by whom I was tormented; and at others I felt the fingers of the monster already grasping my neck, and screamed aloud with agony and terror. Fortunately, as I spoke my native language, Mr. Kirwin alone understood me; but my gestures and bitter cries were sufficient to affright the other witnesses. Why did I not die? More miserable than man ever was before, why did I not sink into forgetfulness and rest? Death snatches away many blooming children, the only hopes of their doting parents; how many brides and youthful lovers have been one day in the bloom of health and hope, and the next a prey for worms and the decay of the tomb! Of what materials was I made that I could thus resist so many shocks, which, like the turning of the wheel, continually renewed the torture?         But I was doomed to live and in two months found myself as awaking from a dream, in a prison, stretched on a wretched bed, surrounded by jailers, turnkeys, bolts, and all the miserable apparatus of a dungeon. It was morning, I remember, when I thus awoke to understanding; I had forgotten the particulars of what had happened and only felt as if some great misfortune had suddenly overwhelmed me; but when I looked around and saw the barred windows and the squalidness of the room in which I was, all flashed across my memory and I groaned bitterly.         This sound disturbed an old woman who was sleeping in a chair beside me. She was a hired nurse, the wife of one of the turnkeys, and her countenance expressed all those bad qualities which often characterize that class. The lines of her face were hard and rude, like that of persons accustomed to see without sympathizing in sights of misery. Her tone expressed her entire indifference; she addressed me in English, and the voice struck me as one that I had heard during my sufferings. "Are you better now, sir?" said she.         I replied in the same language, with a feeble voice, "I believe I am; but if it be all true, if indeed I did not dream, I am sorry that I am still alive to feel this misery and horror."         "For that matter," replied the old woman, "if you mean about the gentleman you murdered, I believe that it were better for you if you were dead, for I fancy it will go hard with you! However, that's none of my business; I am sent to nurse you and get you well; I do my duty with a safe conscience; it were well if everybody did the same."         I turned with loathing from the woman who could utter so unfeeling a speech to a person just saved, on the very edge of death; but I felt languid and unable to reflect on all that had passed. The whole series of my life appeared to me as a dream; I sometimes doubted if indeed it were all true, for it never presented itself to my mind with the force of reality.         As the images that floated before me became more distinct, I grew feverish; a darkness pressed around me; no one was near me who soothed me with the gentle voice of love; no dear hand supported me. The physician came and prescribed medicines, and the old woman prepared them for me; but utter carelessness was visible in the first, and the expression of brutality was strongly marked in the visage of the second. Who could be interested in the fate of a murderer but the hangman who would gain his fee?         These were my first reflections, but I soon learned that Mr. Kirwin had shown me extreme kindness. He had caused the best room in the prison to be prepared for me (wretched indeed was the best); and it was he who had provided a physician and a nurse. It is true, he seldom came to see me, for although he ardently desired to relieve the sufferings of every human creature, he did not wish to be present at the agonies and miserable ravings of a murderer. He came, therefore, sometimes to see that I was not neglected, but his visits were short and with long intervals. One day, while I was gradually recovering, I was seated in a chair, my eyes half open and my cheeks livid like those in death. I was overcome by gloom and misery and often reflected I had better seek death than desire to remain in a world which to me was replete with wretchedness. At one time I considered whether I should not declare myself guilty and suffer the penalty of the law, less innocent than poor Justine had been. Such were my thoughts when the door of my apartment was opened and Mr. Kirwin entered. His countenance expressed sympathy and compassion; he drew a chair close to mine and addressed me in French, "I fear that this place is very shocking to you; can I do anything to make you more comfortable?"         "I thank you, but all that you mention is nothing to me; on the whole earth there is no comfort which I am capable of receiving."         "I know that the sympathy of a stranger can be but of little relief to one borne down as you are by so strange a misfortune. But you will, I hope, soon quit this melancholy abode, for doubtless evidence can easily be brought to free you from the criminal charge."         "That is my least concern; I am, by a course of strange events, become the most miserable of mortals. Persecuted and tortured as I am and have been, can death be any evil to me?"         "Nothing indeed could be more unfortunate and agonizing than the strange chances that have lately occurred. You were thrown, by some surprising accident, on this shore, renowned for its hospitality, seized immediately, and charged with murder. The first sight that was presented to your eyes was the body of your friend, murdered in so unaccountable a manner and placed, as it were, by some fiend across your path."         As Mr. Kirwin said this, notwithstanding the agitation I endured on this retrospect of my sufferings, I also felt considerable surprise at the knowledge he seemed to possess concerning me. I suppose some astonishment was exhibited in my countenance, for Mr. Kirwin hastened to say, "Immediately upon your being taken ill, all the papers that were on your person were brought me, and I examined them that I might discover some trace by which I could send to your relations an account of your misfortune and illness. I found several letters, and, among others, one which I discovered from its commencement to be from your father. I instantly wrote to Geneva; nearly two months have elapsed since the departure of my letter. But you are ill; even now you tremble; you are unfit for agitation of any kind."         "This suspense is a thousand times worse than the most horrible event; tell me what new scene of death has been acted, and whose murder I am now to lament?"         "Your family is perfectly well," said Mr. Kirwin with gentleness; "and someone, a friend, is come to visit you."         I know not by what chain of thought the idea presented itself, but it instantly darted into my mind that the murderer had come to mock at my misery and taunt me with the death of Clerval, as a new incitement for me to comply with his hellish desires. I put my hand before my eyes, and cried out in agony, "Oh! Take him away! I cannot see him; for God's sake, do not let him enter!"         Mr. Kirwin regarded me with a troubled countenance. He could not help regarding my exclamation as a presumption of my guilt and said in rather a severe tone, "I should have thought, young man, that the presence of your father would have been welcome instead of inspiring such violent repugnance."         "My father!" cried I, while every feature and every muscle was relaxed from anguish to pleasure. "Is my father indeed come? How kind, how very kind! But where is he, why does he not hasten to me?"         My change of manner surprised and pleased the magistrate; perhaps he thought that my former exclamation was a momentary return of delirium, and now he instantly resumed his former benevolence. He rose and quitted the room with my nurse, and in a moment my father entered it.         Nothing, at this moment, could have given me greater pleasure than the arrival of my father. I stretched out my hand to him and cried, "Are you, then, safe—and Elizabeth—and Ernest?" My father calmed me with assurances of their welfare and endeavoured, by dwelling on these subjects so interesting to my heart, to raise my desponding spirits; but he soon felt that a prison cannot be the abode of cheerfulness.         "What a place is this that you inhabit, my son!" said he, looking mournfully at the barred windows and wretched appearance of the room. "You travelled to seek happiness, but a fatality seems to pursue you. And poor Clerval—"         The name of my unfortunate and murdered friend was an agitation too great to be endured in my weak state; I shed tears. "Alas! Yes, my father," replied I; "some destiny of the most horrible kind hangs over me, and I must live to fulfil it, or surely I should have died on the coffin of Henry."         We were not allowed to converse for any length of time, for the precarious state of my health rendered every precaution necessary that could ensure tranquillity. Mr. Kirwin came in and insisted that my strength should not be exhausted by too much exertion. But the appearance of my father was to me like that of my good angel, and I gradually recovered my health.         As my sickness quitted me, I was absorbed by a gloomy and black melancholy that nothing could dissipate. The image of Clerval was forever before me, ghastly and murdered. More than once the agitation into which these reflections threw me made my friends dread a dangerous relapse. Alas! Why did they preserve so miserable and detested a life? It was surely that I might fulfil my destiny, which is now drawing to a close. Soon, oh, very soon, will death extinguish these throbbings and relieve me from the mighty weight of anguish that bears me to the dust; and, in executing the award of justice, I shall also sink to rest. Then the appearance of death was distant, although the wish was ever present to my thoughts; and I often sat for hours motionless and speechless, wishing for some mighty revolution that might bury me and my destroyer in its ruins.         The season of the assizes approached. I had already been three months in prison, and although I was still weak and in continual danger of a relapse, I was obliged to travel nearly a hundred miles to the country town where the court was held. Mr. Kirwin charged himself with every care of collecting witnesses and arranging my defence. I was spared the disgrace of appearing publicly as a criminal, as the case was not brought before the court that decides on life and death. The grand jury rejected the bill, on its being proved that I was on the Orkney Islands at the hour the body of my friend was found; and a fortnight after my removal I was liberated from prison.         My father was enraptured on finding me freed from the vexations of a criminal charge, that I was again allowed to breathe the fresh atmosphere and permitted to return to my native country. I did not participate in these feelings, for to me the walls of a dungeon or a palace were alike hateful. The cup of life was poisoned forever, and although the sun shone upon me, as upon the happy and gay of heart, I saw around me nothing but a dense and frightful darkness, penetrated by no light but the glimmer of two eyes that glared upon me. Sometimes they were the expressive eyes of Henry, languishing in death, the dark orbs nearly covered by the lids and the long black lashes that fringed them; sometimes it was the watery, clouded eyes of the monster, as I first saw them in my chamber at Ingolstadt.         My father tried to awaken in me the feelings of affection. He talked of Geneva, which I should soon visit, of Elizabeth and Ernest; but these words only drew deep groans from me. Sometimes, indeed, I felt a wish for happiness and thought with melancholy delight of my beloved cousin or longed, with a devouring maladie du pays, to see once more the blue lake and rapid Rhone, that had been so dear to me in early childhood; but my general state of feeling was a torpor in which a prison was as welcome a residence as the divinest scene in nature; and these fits were seldom interrupted but by paroxysms of anguish and despair. At these moments I often endeavoured to put an end to the existence I loathed, and it required unceasing attendance and vigilance to restrain me from committing some dreadful act of violence.         Yet one duty remained to me, the recollection of which finally triumphed over my selfish despair. It was necessary that I should return without delay to Geneva, there to watch over the lives of those I so fondly loved and to lie in wait for the murderer, that if any chance led me to the place of his concealment, or if he dared again to blast me by his presence, I might, with unfailing aim, put an end to the existence of the monstrous image which I had endued with the mockery of a soul still more monstrous. My father still desired to delay our departure, fearful that I could not sustain the fatigues of a journey, for I was a shattered wreck—the shadow of a human being. My strength was gone. I was a mere skeleton, and fever night and day preyed upon my wasted frame. Still, as I urged our leaving Ireland with such inquietude and impatience, my father thought it best to yield. We took our passage on board a vessel bound for Havre-de-Grace and sailed with a fair wind from the Irish shores. It was midnight. I lay on the deck looking at the stars and listening to the dashing of the waves. I hailed the darkness that shut Ireland from my sight, and my pulse beat with a feverish joy when I reflected that I should soon see Geneva. The past appeared to me in the light of a frightful dream; yet the vessel in which I was, the wind that blew me from the detested shore of Ireland, and the sea which surrounded me told me too forcibly that I was deceived by no vision and that Clerval, my friend and dearest companion, had fallen a victim to me and the monster of my creation. I repassed, in my memory, my whole life—my quiet happiness while residing with my family in Geneva, the death of my mother, and my departure for Ingolstadt. I remembered, shuddering, the mad enthusiasm that hurried me on to the creation of my hideous enemy, and I called to mind the night in which he first lived. I was unable to pursue the train of thought; a thousand feelings pressed upon me, and I wept bitterly. Ever since my recovery from the fever I had been in the custom of taking every night a small quantity of laudanum, for it was by means of this drug only that I was enabled to gain the rest necessary for the preservation of life. Oppressed by the recollection of my various misfortunes, I now swallowed double my usual quantity and soon slept profoundly. But sleep did not afford me respite from thought and misery; my dreams presented a thousand objects that scared me. Towards morning I was possessed by a kind of nightmare; I felt the fiend's grasp in my neck and could not free myself from it; groans and cries rang in my ears. My father, who was watching over me, perceiving my restlessness, awoke me; the dashing waves were around, the cloudy sky above, the fiend was not here: a sense of security, a feeling that a truce was established between the present hour and the irresistible, disastrous future imparted to me a kind of calm forgetfulness, of which the human mind is by its structure peculiarly susceptible.

Ill Kill Myself

rock

We spent all our time Watching the oceans from the sky Parallels of ourselves We are both the same Whether near or far I'll know where you are There's nowhere for you to run and hide Our love is a love that will never die I'll kill myself so I can haunt your dreams Forever awake you'll always be Twisting and turning trying to get by But there's no escape, I'll eat you alive How does it feel, to know that this nightmare is very real? Your screams break the silence of your lonely world But no one cares She begs me to stop As I tie the knots In the rope that bounds her down I'll make sure that you're never found I'll kill myself to haunt your dreams Forever awake you'll always be Twisting and turning trying to get by But there's no way you'll be taken from me You can't ever leave me We were meant to stay here for all time I don't deserve you Still you'll always forever be mine

These walls are now built from the enemy These walls are now built from the pain Arising from the distant remains Born to rule A victim of failure Awakened with urge Winds of fate glide against his skin New stars shine down A fire has formed the next empire Forged in flame Built from the enemy Forged in flame Built from the pain Hearts of doom I see ruled in front of me Shattered by winds Devoured by storms Ancient kings bow to me from the grave Built and forged in flame Awakening from the slithering leaves Once burned Now a bringer of vengeance and grief This passive human form crawled from the trees Violent days passed Mans hope sounds with a bellowing roar Forged in flame Built from the enemy Forged in flame Built from the pain Warm is the light Thoughts of a dire world forever behind me No need to run Embrace the tide Forged in flame Built from the enemy Forged in flame Built from the pain Hearts of doom I see ruled in front of me Shattered by winds Devoured by storms Ancient kings bow to me from the grave Built and forged in flame

Have we allowed with permission, torn apart left us wishing For an ounce or a shred of dignity, I see this turnstile is for me It allows me to rebuild again, manifest love from this pen The urgency of which I speak, is for them that comes to seek (chorus) My prayer, my plea, this turnstile spins for me My prayer, my plea, this turnstile spins for me Hope lost in this abyss, too often the forgotten risk Hands lent in this passage, a whole of pity won't let us manage Hurtfulness and deep sorrow, forgotten thoughts of tomorrow Sadness in your remembrance, what next the hesitance? (chorus) Now, right now, my plea, this turnstile spins for me Right now, my plea, this turnstile spins for me SPIN!!! (chorus)

Purge the Deviant

rock

Traps wired and awaiting casualties I am the passenger ripe for the deference Designated I explore fervently Lines of deliverance lead to enslavement From the prison watchers supervise They convey me a supine invitation Promise of purity they provide Gathering me into the machination Bait of evolution beckons me The forewarning shelters in opacity My descent Hallucinations have guided me towards Incomprehensible deceit slithering in the gloom Bait of my evolution beckons me Over the barriers I’m intangible Following particles of celestials You decide my survival in time My demise or redemption Over the barriers I’m awaiting your sentence My rebirth Passing the verge my despair is serene Blurred is the punishment stained by expectancy Occupied with the aim of release I fail to recognize straps of confinement Laceration cuts the quietness Sounds of shame spiral out through the pinfold My scream of heresy is unheard Echoes of divergency are extinguished Bait of my evolution beckons me The apprehensiveness buried in opacity My descent Anticipation has guided me towards Incomprehensible deceit slithering in the gloom Bait of my evolution beckons me Over the barriers I’m intangible Following particles of celestials You decide my survival in time My demise or redemption Over the barriers I’m awaiting your purging Bursting flames of lavation Are discharged through my spine Infused with ascension This fire's killing me Bursting flames of freedom Are discharged through my spine Infused with power Even though it’s killing me Purify the deviant in me

Glory

Intro: DJ Mace Aiwa, vakamboonana havashayane, mhuri yeZimbabwe. Tasvika panoperera chirongwa chedu; Emcee FM tiripo paYaad Universe. We'll be back again next week- same time, same place, same DJ Mace tichikupakurirai mitakunanzva yemusambo weHip-hop. Thank you for tuning in. But before we go to the news, here's Glory. Till next time Verse 1: Malcom Mufunde Uh I'm the reason creation took longer than needed You need a mobile crane to handle my business I discoverеd the third law of motion had a loophole And managed to pull off еverything that I pushed for There's a point in my throwaway lines I'm just throwing free lines from the free throw line I'm from an era where dope emceeing was not an error And we used to take care of these bars like a jailer This is the God flow, I feel like Poseidon I done crossed every line, including the horizon I'm grateful my mama was fruitful in labor Coz now she gets to marvel at the fruits of her labor I was going apeshit before the Carters hit the Louvre My only hypothesis is I've nothing to prove Y'all silly, trynna go face to face with a hydra Or go toe-to-toe with a spider Got the heart of a lion; xenotransplantation I put up numbers like superscripts in mathematics And my bars trigger endothermic reactions Coz I got hot lines; emergency communication And the build-up is always to a punchline you can marvel Y'all build up to nothing like the tower of Babel Never thought I'd have an audience Making music was a stretch for me like an accordion They thought I would perish during hip-hop's calamity But instead I rose over disaster like Cassidy Rose so high, I now rap from the stratus You can find my whole art in heaven; The Lord's Prayer Time for the scale to get it straight That like Biggie and Pun, I'm a hip-hop heavyweight In a room with Nadia Nakai naked and Nicki Minaj humping I'll remain the main attraction Should I humble them or just murder your favorites? The dichotomy of bringing down to earth or sending to heaven It's a death race trynna go against Mufunde See, speed kills and I'm as quick as a bullet I'll bury one into you and then bury you too Shatter the faces of these Who's Whos, you'll wonder who's who? But I'm just here for hip-hop So let me stick to my guns like Miles in Guns Akimbo Bridge: Malcom Mufunde Who should I kill next? Who knows, nigga? I'm the GOAT and I'm sick; zoonose, nigga Dubs only, my win record like ZANU A trillion dollars on my head is downplaying my value The most important rapper in my era I'm instrumental; without me, this game is a cappella I'd to change my stage name so your fear could die Coz only schizophrenia could mess with Tha M.I.N.D Hook: TiNaYe Ndichatora mukombe, ndichatora mukombe Hunting the glory, and writing my story Ndichatora mukombe, ndichatora mukombe Hunting the glory, and writing my story Verse 2: Malcom Mufunde I'm too real; the second realest nigga is my clone Could use calcium in my diet; I'm sick to the bone And the throne is now familiar with my fart A stethoscope will tell you I got hip-hop in my blood I set the bar so high even Mugeyi couldn't miss And these raps like a bad bitch, they was meant for the streets Rags to riches but I'm still in my rag phase But one day I'll be drowning in ice like the revenant They say God doesn't approve of my boastful language Well, to conquer Jericho, I gotta blow my own trumpet Pointing a silencer at every loudmouth Coz I'm getting sick of this beef; anthrax My lines ahead of time; they confuse the timeline And I flow with energy like a pipeline Yet I'm underpaid, I relate with the other gender Though I put in more work than immigrant labor Guess them ups and downs make us stronger like pushups I got dreams and goals too fantastic for a Puskas I'm from where the lowlives get to live higher Where we smoke grass like veld fires My bros cooked bricks before Lafarge had a building And moved kilos for miles; F the metric system Wack 100- I'm in control of the game now Was eating beats raw, they got mustard on them now You know what time it is, these are timeless Bars My music is making rounds like Remington Arms This record is more amazing than any in the Guinness Book I told Tinaye we're gon have the game shook Niggas act like we're integrated, we're in another class Y'all don't even need calculus to differentiate us I still beat the rap after I murder a rap beat Still complex while I stick to the basics No mechanical advantage; I'm just loaded with effort, man Wu Tang forever but I use a different method, man I'm on fire, my complexion is the testimony So don't you poke me with this beef shit like pepperoni No kidding, it's like I got protection I bare my soul in the booth like a Catholic confession I'm honestly not here for the money If I go commercial, I'll sell more platinum than Zvishavane Bridge: Malcom Mufunde Who should I kill next? Who knows, nigga? I'm the GOAT and I'm sick; zoonose, nigga Dubs only, my win record like ZANU A trillion dollars on my head is downplaying my value The most important rapper in my era I'm instrumental; without me, this game is a cappella I'd to change my stage name so your fear could die Coz only schizophrenia could mess with Tha M.I.N.D Outro: TheUltraPoet The simplest thing is not always the easiest In a world of filters, Botox and autotune Being basic is arguably the hardest thing you can be So when I say I'm an underdog, I'm not feeling bad about myself I'm celebrating the fact that I found comfort in who I am That I would choose understanding over being outstanding Never giving in to the limits of my gifts Breaking the glass ceiling Aching is a luxurious feeling Working vigorously is my calling Having sleepless nights is part of my being I have something to say I know what I bring to the table How they take it is how they take it "Fake it till you make it" Is a ticket to going how you came When you kick the bucket Took the Ls for ladders And transcended to a higher plane That has always been the plan Getting the bag and edifying the clan If they don't give me my bouquet Even if I don't get the bookings Knowing that I tried is a win in my book

Become someone far removed in comforts hidden chains Maybe unwillingly released But now your free to Hate me, say I didn't care I threw it all away In truth you were everything to me My world, our universe Where I lost myself Can you accept my recompense? Where there times when you felt stranded? Alone in our double act You chose a different vice In deep, too deep to escape unharmed Still stings like that yesterday Weighs heavy on my mind Maybe unwillingly released But now your free to No goodbye and no farewell Will the wounds heal only time will tell Can't loose you but I hid so long I began to fade Can't loose you but we hurt so long From pain peace will be made No goodbye We never said farewell All those years Wouldn't change them for the world And for what it's worth I'm glad I knew you

September 28th. MY BELOVED BARBARA ALEXIEVNA,—All is well as regards the jeweller. Unfortunately, I have also to say that I myself have fallen ill, and cannot rise from bed. Just when so many things need to be done, I have gone and caught a chill, the devil take it! Also I have to tell you that, to complete my misfortunes, his Excellency has been pleased to become stricter. Today he railed at and scolded Emelia Ivanovitch until the poor fellow was quite put about. That is the sum of my news. No—there is something else concerning which I should like to write to you, but am afraid to obtrude upon your notice. I am a simple, dull fellow who writes down whatsoever first comes into his head—Your friend, MAKAR DIEVUSHKIN.

Apollonius of Rhodes’s “Argonautica”

misc

[Jason and Argonauts are en route to Colchis in order to retrieve the golden fleece. Pelias ordered Jason on this mission in an effort to give him an impossible labor that would result in his death and prevent him from laying claim to the throne in Iolcus. The golden fleece is the legendary hide of the ram that Phrixus and Helle rode to Colchis, though only Phrixus survived the venture.] There on the coast was the home of Phineus, Agenor's son, who above all men endured most terrible misery through the prophetic gift that earlier Apollo had bestowed on him: he had no scruples about revealing to men, precisely, the divine will of Zeus himself. So Zeus afflicted him with interminable old age, and took the sweet light from his eyes, and would not let him enjoy the countless dishes that his neighbors always brought to his house, when they'd come to learn the will of heaven; instead, there swooped down on him, through the clouds, suddenly, Harpies, forever snatching the food from mouth or hands with their crooked beaks. Sometimes not a crumb was left him, at others just enough to let him live and suffer; but then they spread over it all a putrid stench, that no one could bear when filling his gullet, or even when keeping their distance, so foul the smell of his dinner's remnants. The moment he heard the company's voices and footsteps, he sensed that these passers-by were the ones at whose coming, so Zeus's oracle said, he would get joy of his victuals. He struggled up from his bed, dreamlike, spiritless, and tapped his way to the door on bony feet, huddling over a stick, feeling the walls, joints shaking from weakness and age: his parchment skin was cured with dirt, only the skin cobbled his bones together. Out of the house he came, knees buckling, and collapsed on the courtyard threshold. Blood rushed to his head, the ground seemed to swim under his feet. He lay there speechless, swooning, unstrung. When they saw him, the heroes gathered and stood round in wonderment. Then he, with labored shallow breathing, made this prophetic utterance: "Listen, you foremost of all the Greeks, if truly you are they whom, by a king's chill ordinance, Jason is leading, aboard the ship Argo, after the Fleece yes, it's you for certain: my mind by its prophetic insight still knows all matters-ah, Lord Apollo, even in harsh affliction I give you thanks for that!- by Zeus of the suppliants, that icy foe to human transgressors, for Phoibos's sake, for Hera's, in whose care above that of all other gods you travel, I beseech you, help me-save an ill-fated man from outrage, don't sail away and abandon me with indifference in the state you see! For not only has some Fury kicked out my sight, while I drag on a weary old age whose end eludes me, but another most bitter trouble, worse than the rest, hangs above me: Harpies, swooping from somewhere unknown and deathly, snatch the food from my lips; I have no wise plan for my rescue; no, more easily could I escape my own thought, when I long for dinner, than them, so swift their flight through the air. And even supposing they leave me some morsel of food, it breathes the stench of decay, its smell is too strong to be borne: no mortal could stand coming near it, even for a little, though his heart were forged of adamant. But a bitter necessity, never satisfied, forces me to remain, and remaining, to put the filth in my accursed belly. Them it is heaven's decree that the sons of Boreas shall restrain; and not as strangers will they drive them off me, if I am that Phineus once renowned among men, for wealth and prophetic skill, and my father was Agenor, and when I ruled the Thrakians I brought their sister Kleopatra home as my bride, and paid well for her." So Agenor's son spoke, and deep grief seized each one of the heroes, and, more than any, the two sons of Boreas. Wiping away their tears they approached him, and now thus spoke Zetes, grasping the hand of the distressed old man: "Poor wretch! I'll swear there's no other soul alive more god-hated than you! Why are so many griefs laid on you? Sure, you offended the gods, damned by your thoughtlessness and your knowledge of prophecy: hence their great anger. Yet our mind is distraught within us, eager though we are to help you-if indeed some divinity's granted us this honor for all too plain to mere earthlings are the stern reproofs of the immortals. Therefore we will not avert the coming of the Harpies, much though we long to, until you take an oath that we shall not, because of this act, lose heaven's favor." So he spoke, and the old man fixed on him his vacant staring eyeballs, and made response with the following words: "Hush, now, don't get such ideas in your head, my child. Witness the son of Leto, who with good will taught me the mantic art; witness, too, the ill-starred fate that's mine, and this dark cloud over my eyes, and the underworld gods-should I die thus perjured, may I forfeit their favor- that this aid will bring down on you no wrath from heaven." So after this oath the two were eager to defend him. At once the younger heroes prepared the old man a feast, a final prey for the Harpies; and the two stood by, ready to swing their swords at them as they swooped down. And indeed, the very moment the old man touched his victuals, at once, like bitter blasts or lightning flashes, suddenly out of the clouds the Harpies sprang, with a raucous scream, dove greedily down on the food. The heroes shouted at them in mid-flight; but they, after gobbling the whole lot down, sped away into the distance over the sea, still screaming. An unbearable odor was left there. And behind them the two sons of Boreas, swords drawn, raced in pursuit, for Zeus had implanted in them inexhaustible strength. Without Zeus, though, they'd never have come remotely near the Harpies, who regularly outstripped the west wind's blasts on their way to Phineus, and back again. As when, on some mountain range, trained hunting dogs, on the track of horned goats or deer, run at full tilt, straining hard, but always a little behind them, vainly snapping their jaws, reaching out with their teeth, so Zetes and Kalais, crowding fast on their heels, reached out for them, in vain, with the tips of their fingers. And indeed, against the gods' will, they'd have torn them to pieces, overtaking them far off, above the Floating Islands, had not swift Iris seen them, and, darting down from heaven out of a clear sky, restrained them with these words: "It is not ordained, sons of Boreas, that you should harry the Harpies, great Zeus's hounds, with your swords; but I myself will swear to you that they'll never come back to touch this man." So saying she took an oath, over a poured libation of Styx water, to all the gods the chillest and most awful, that never again would these creatures come near the dwelling of Phineus, Agenor's son, since thus it was fated." So they yielded before the oath, and turned to hasten back to the ship; which is why men now call those islands "Turning", instead of, as they once did, "Floating". Then the Harpies and Iris parted: the Harpies flew back to their lair in Minoan Krete, but Iris went winging up to Olympos, soaring high on her swift wings. Meanwhile the heroes cleaned off the old man's dirt-encrusted skin, and sacrificed sheep, all carefully chosen, that they'd brought away with the plunder taken from Amykos. Now when they'd set a great dinner in the palace, they sat down and feasted; and Phineus feasted with them as he'd dreamed of doing, harpy-ravenous, cheering his spirit. Then after they'd taken their fill of drink and dinner, they stayed up all night awaiting the sons of Boreas; and the old man sat in the midst of them, by the hearthstone, and told them the ends of their voyage, their quest's accomplishment: [Some time later, the Argonauts have safely arrived at Colchis. Aietes, king of Colchis and father of Medeia, has agreed to hand over the golden fleece if Jason is able to yoke two fire-breathing bulls, plow the land with them, sow dragon's teeth in the plowed land, and defeat the armed men that spring up from these teeth. Medeia, stricken with love for Jason (Aphrodite's doing), comes to his aid with a magical ointment that makes him impervious to the bulls' fire. She also gives him advice as to how he might defeat the sown men that arise from the teeth-sown soil.] But when Aison's son once more rejoined his comrades in the spot where he'd left them to make his solitary venture, they set off back together, he recounting to the other heroes all that had happened. They arrived in a body at the ship, where the rest of the crew, as they came in sight, welcomed and quizzed them. Jason told them all Medeia's wily plans, and showed them the fearful drug: but Idas sat aloof, alone of his comrades, biting back fury. The others, happily for the moment, since night's darkness restrained them, now went about their own business. But at daybreak they dispatched two envoys, to go and ask Aietes for the seed: first Telamon himself, beloved of Ares, and with him Aithalides, Hermes' illustrious son. Off they went, and on no vain mission: at their coming lord Aietes gave them, for the ordeal, the perilous teeth of Aonias dragon, that in Thebes, Kadmos, when he arrived there on his quest for Europa, slew, as it kept watch over the spring of Ares (and there too he settled, by the guidance of the heifer that Apollo's oracle gave him to lead him on his way). But its teeth the Tritonian goddess dashed from the dragon's jaws and gave, half as a gift to Aietes, half to its slayer. So after sowing his share in the Aonian plainland Agenor's son Kadmos founded an earthborn people of all that were left by the spear after Ares' harvesting: but Aietes now handed out his, to be taken to the ship quite readily, being convinced that Jason would never accomplish the full task, even were he to yoke the oxen. [Once all the preparations have been made, Jason and the Argonauts head to the field where Jason will attempt the great feat.] There they found Aietes and the rest of the Kolchians: these latter standing to watch from the mountainside, while the king paced up and down along the riverbank. Now Jason, the moment his comrades had made the stern cables fast, sprang forth from the ship, and bearing shield and spear advanced to the contest; and with him he took the gleaming bronze helmet brimful of sharp-pointed teeth and his sword slung from a baldric: stripped to the waist, in ways he resembled Ares, in ways Apollo of the golden saber. Eyeing the field, he spotted the brazen yokes for the bulls, and the plough beside them, adamant-strong, in one piece. Up he came, and fixed his massive spear by its butt end, and against it propped his helmet. Then, with only his shield, he went forward to examine the countless tracks of the bulls. They from some hidden underground cave, where stood their strong-built stalls all wreathed about with dark smoke, lurid and thick, both burst forth together, snorting gouts of fire. At that sight the heroes all shuddered; but Jason, planting feet firmly apart, faced their charge, as in the sea a rockbound reef faces the waves whipped up by endless gales. His shield he thrust out in their path, and both came charging against it with mighty horns, and bellowing; yet they failed to move it so much as an inch, for all their onset. As through the holes pierced in a furnace the bronze-smith's bellows, made from tough leather, now strike out showers of sparks while they heat up a deadly blaze, now pause in their blowing, and a fearful roar comes from the fire as it surges upward from the furnace grate-so the bulls, their mouths exhaling quick blasts of flame, roared, and a murderous fireball engulfed Jason, hit him like lightning, but the girl's drugs saved him. Then seizing the bull to his right by the tip of its horn he dragged it masterfully, with all his might, till he brought it under the yoke of bronze, and forced it down on its knees with a sudden kick, foot against brazen foot. The other he laid low likewise, felled by a single blow, and tossing his broad shield aside, with feet set firmly right and left, he held them both down where they'd dropped to their foreknees, one on each side. He stooped straight through the flames, and Aietes gaped at Jason's heroic prowess. Meanwhile Tyndareus's sons, briefed earlier for this service, picked the yokes up, and brought them to him for the harnessing. On the bulls' hump necks he firm-set them; then between the pair he ran out the bronze pole and made fast its tapering end to the yokes. While his two helpers now backed off from the flames and went back to the ship, he recovered his shield, shouldered it behind him, and took the strong helmet, full of sharp teeth, along with his irresistible spear. Employing this as a goad, he jabbed at their flanks, as Thessalian peasants will goad their oxen, while firmly he guided the well-wrought plough-handle, fashioned of adamant. All this time the bulls raged on in monstrous fury, breathing their fierce fire against him; the blast came surging up like the roar of a blustering wind, worst of all terrors to seafaring men, who strike their great sail at its coming. But soon enough after, forced to move by the spear's urging, the bulls started off, and behind them the rock-hard ground was broken up, sheared by strong bulls and sturdy ploughman; and a terrible crunching noise arose from the plough's furrow as the mansize clods were split; and Jason followed, one strong foot pressing the plow blade, and far behind him kept scattering teeth along the line of new-broken clods, with many a backward glance, lest that deadly harvest of earthborn men should rush him too soon; and the bulls slogged on forward, treading heavy with brazen hooves. But when the day's last third was still remaining as it dwindles away from dawn, at the time when weary peasants wish aloud for the sweet hour of unyoking, then all the fallow was ploughed by that unwearied ploughman, four acres though it spread; and he loosed the plough from the oxen. The beasts he scared off, sent them running across the plain; he himself went back to the ship, while he yet saw the furrows empty of earthborn men, and his comrades pressed round him with heartening shouts. He strode to the river, filled up his helmet with water and slaked his thirst, flexed his knees to keep them supple, flooded his great heart with valiance, raging like a boar that sharpens its tusks against the men who are hunting it, while from its jaws the abundant slaver of fury drips groundward. By this time the earthborn men were sprouting all over the ploughed acres, and from end to end the precinct of man-slaying Ares was abristle with stout shields, two-handed spears, and shining helmets: the gleam reached up from the ground to high Olympus, cut through the air like lightning. And as when the earth has had a heavy snowfall, and gales have then scoured away the clouds of winter on a moonless night, and all the galaxies in heaven glint bright through the darkness: so did these warriors shine as they sprang up out of the earth. But Jason remembered the counseling he'd been given by guileful Medeia. He seized from the plain a boulder, enormous, rounded, a terrible shot-weight of Ares the War God: not even four sturdy men could have got it up an inch; but Jason hefted it easily, made a run and hurled it far into the thick of them, then crouched down behind his shield unseen, full of daring. The Kolchians shouted aloud while Aietes was struck dumb with amazement by the cast of the huge shot-weight. The warriors, like eager hounds, now sprang at each other, roaring for slaughter, and tumbled on the earth, their mother, skewered by spear thrusts. They looked like pines or oaks that are shaken down by some fierce gale. And just as a fiery meteor flashes across the heavens trailing its furrow of light, a marvel to those who see it shoot gleaming through the airy darkness, such was the son of Aison as he charged the earthborn warriors, bare sword drawn from the scabbard, slashing at random into the thick of them, mowing them down with cuts to belly or flanks, some waist-clear, some out as far as the knees, some that had just completely emerged, some on their feet already and hurrying to the fray. And as, when a war breaks out between neighboring peoples, the husbandman-scared lest the enemy reap his harvest before him-takes in his hand a curved sickle, freshly sharpened, and hurriedly cuts the crop while it's still unripe, not waiting for the sun to parch it out in its proper season, so now Jason reaped his earthborn crop, the furrows filling with blood as field channels with springwater. They fell, some biting the harsh clods with their teeth, stretched prone, some on their backs, some on an elbow or side, in appearance like beached dead sea monsters; and many, struck down before taking one step on earth, slumped groundward with what torso they'd reached up to heaven, bowed down by the weight of their weak and heavy heads-- a scene, you might say, like that when Zeus has sent heavy rain, and nurslings new-set in the vineyard are battered flat, broken off at the roots, sad toil for the husbandmen; but dejection and deadly sorrow comes upon the estate's owner, who planted the slips. Such, at that time, was the heavy grief that entered King Aietes' heart, and he made his way back to the city with all his Kolchians, brooding on how he might soonest confound the heroes. So the day went down, and Jason's ordeal was ended.
