D Done 1.10 Traveler's Poem


Traveler walked out of his Hanalei home, over to the beach, the sun was setting. Leilani was off to the sunshine market, should be back soon with strange and wondrous things. When you find something interesting at a farmer's market in Hawaii, always ask two questions, what is it and how do you prepare it? After dinner, they were going to a poetry slam, HanaSlam, at the community center. Traveler was no great poet, but he wanted to participate.

He reflected on all that had come to pass this day, the deep state pressure on the HNMNBies, the deepening relationship with Leilani and started to write.

Every sound, every face, every license plate
    Recorded
        Remembered
            Resolved

Digitized, and sanitized; who's that girl?
    I want to meet her
        Maybe court her
            Can I kiss her?

I know you watch me, so does He!
    You monitor me
        Think you know me
            Heart of a man is deep

He has appointed a girl for me
    To love all my life
        We'll love under the sun
            Analyze that

A piece of the action

Guy asked, "Now that you are selling Curvaceous Coffee what will you do with the money? Wanna go on a cruise?" Wonk looked up amused, "I'm working on Key Performance Indicators, (KPIs) for a Micro Hotel. Remember the place we stayed overnight to be ready for razor clamming in Pacific Beach." "Yeah, sort of, Guy replied, the Nautical Inn or some such." "Clipper Inn, Traveler suggested I buy it. He is even willing to front the money, for interest in return of course. I'll run it. In return, I get a share of the profits, if I can pay the loan back, I own the hotel in 7 years. 600k loan, 15% simple interest 7 year payback, (84 payments). The corporation has 1500 shares at a price based on a value of $650 each, ($972,556.44/84). If I can't buy them all back in that time, the value is recomputed for the 85th payment." "Traveler gets 15% return on his money over 7 years, but you could end up with a hotel in Pacific Beach? S...

HNMNBM Party

Wonk said, may I ask your gorgeousness a question, what is with the HNMNBM sticker on your Polaris?   What does HNMNBM mean?  Where do they come from, who is behind it, earnestness bouncing off the walls of the lodge, courtesy of the frenetic young man. So far, all I know is you and Gloria are associated with it and you are both very interesting people. He rolled the "r" in very to accent the word. Yolanda smiled between half closed eyes, shrugged. I was at a party, invitation only, they were sitting on a table; I grabbed one. Nobody there really needed an indoctrination, we were there because we could see our country spiraling down into a strongman government at full tilt; just didn’t have a label for us. The political power in our country was concentrated on a shrinking ruling class that was fully aware dinner was almost over and someone was going to get stuck with the check. The were caught up in the #ME movement, grabbing money fast as possible, bu...

When silence doesn't mean consent

Several decades from now. . . Following the disastrous presidency of Manuel Lopez,  the Flat Earth Party ceded control of the presidency, senate and house to the Social Justice party for eight years. In their time the SJs managed to close the debtor prisons, restore fire and rescue services to most of the country, but were unable to execute the fiscal discipline to pay down the debt. Citizens of the United States were looking for an answer, a leader, someone that could deal with crime, drugs, supply chain poverty and the brain drain as professionals sought to leave the country for opportunities in Canada, Europe and Latin America. The perilous times seemed custom made for the campaign of Jason Parkland, rising Flat Earth star. Rutherford Beto Hayes, shook his head back and forth, "You can't mean that, he's a reality TV personality, not an experienced politician. And he is certainly not a constitutionalist." Jacques Tremblay replied, "Safety over Freedom. ...
