"Their dick chakras burned with the intensity of a thousand stars." - This is the best line I've read all day.

"Time froze as the two joined fists in genocidal matrimony, flashing coy grins at each other upon a mountain of Yemeni corpses and the tortured bones of Syria. Their faces turned to skulls. Doves with red-stained feathers filled the sky."

Toxic-Virtue-Signalling-Bro-Love don't get any more pure than that.

I wish they would have invited my fist to the meeting. There would have been a couple of black eyes and some broken noses by its end.

Dammlt Caitlin, you are the most poetic commentator on our dystopian reality out there, and I only read the best.

My compliments to you, Caitlin.

Very creative indeed. I tried to think of something original that would perhaps equal (add to) your writings, but no.

Back to the drawing board.

Serious for a final moment.

Other than ' you give us your oil, (because we have such few reserves and everyone knows it) and we will give you all the weaponry you will ever need to keep murdering the people of Yemen and any other country that takes your fancy ..... (as well as any other country we can't be seen to be fighting .... without the approval of Israel, that is).

What a team. A Machiavellian duo, both tarred with the same disgraceful brush.

“…Our sacred bond presides over an empire that is fueled by oil and blood…” until there’s no more oil and blood.

How long is one season of humanity? Who comes between?

(I initially misread the last word - thought it said “Ukraine.” Still made perfect sense of course!)

Just listened to it and wow! Excellent! Thank you for being able to put into words the reality we live in. I don’t feel alone reading or in this case listening to your work. I truly appreciate your work!

Dick Chakras, classic.

My read: capital D Democrats are dicks of the worst kind, they are pretend nice guys. Capital R Republicans are as well.

But the great cock himself - Donald J. Trump - is honest about being a dick, his metaphorical pants are unzipped and it’s hanging out there. Donald Trump (the inveterate liar) is more honest than Joe Biden and the Trump supporter is more honest than the Biden supporter.

Go fly a kite you dick!

Classier than a golden globe and soward dance. But genocidal matrimony it was.

Yeh, it's the meeting of minds, the perfect love of true soulmates. This couple like taking people apart: same objective, different methods. But that just shows a kind of flexibility, don't it?

You know I love you Caitlin but you have never produced anything as masterful of your craft as this. To capture pure evil in pure poetry, and even to put the glimmers of hope in the margins. I am in awe.

****Their dick chakras burned with the intensity of a thousand stars.****

Biden's dick chakra fire was extinguished long ago. Look at him. He looks like John D. Rockefeller before he died.

****Where their two fists connected, their souls merged.****

Souls? What souls?

All that’s missing is the poodle of both nations, Bungling Boris or the U.K. Billionaire Chancellor of five years who says the country’s economic woes are nothing to do with him it was all Boris’s fault. His new slogan is ‘win back trust’, hard to swallow as he has a private 20 strong team of staff llobying for him to be next PM. Back to the point, whilst Biden and the U.S. are rightly scrutinised for their hypocrisy here let’s not forget the U.K.’s part in this bloodfest. The fighter jets that have committed genocide against the civilian Yemen population have had their underwing ordinance supplied by the U.K. fully knowing that they are going to be used against defenceless civilians. Which is in breach of U.K. policy and International law. I am sick of hearing how the extreme right wing government of Ukraine is doing such a brave and wonderful job in the proxy war against the filthy Russkies protecting their borders. Not a mention of the atrocities in Yemen and Palestine. Not white enough for you? Not Christian enough for you? Or perhaps more accurately, no profit in it for you? Who wants to save penniless brown lives when we can make money out of arms to the Ukraine, force them into debt that they can never repay whilst bleeding the Russian coffers dry. Every day we are bombarded with misinformation and disinformation about the Ukraine yet the U.K. has decided that GCHQ needs to be supplemented by a new 750 strong regiment who have stolen the cap badge of the Chindits of WWII fame for disrupting supply lines in Burma. The role of these new 750 soldiers is to sit at computer screens all day promoting government policy on social media sites and stomping on any who seek the truth. Why can’t they leave the history and bravery of mainly Burmese nationals alone (yes of course they had white officers like the Gurkha Regiments, they are native chappies you know!) Let’s call this new Regiment by its real name ‘The Trolls’ and leave the mythical protector of Burmese temples off their cap badge and replace it with something more appropriate from The Lord of the Rings.
