EM and the tariff
EM and the damned tariff
A middle-class newspaper much read by the arty set in England is worried that American workers will suffer during the tariff epoch. I don’t think so, it is not the worker who buys Armani suits or other luxury items, they stick to jeans and t-shirts, the way Elon Musk dresses when pretending to be one of the lads, should they need a Chinese toaster that has gone up in price, the likelihood is that they will stick with the old toaster
It is the middle class, the pretentious ones, who will suffer because the price of leather goods and jewelry is suddenly...

racism
Racism
Two men broke into a shop, one is white, the other is African, as we cannot say black because that is a racist slur
The pair was caught and sent before a magistrate. The white guy was sentenced to two years in jail. Being white, he was seen as privileged, although he was a poor working-class
The man referred to as an African got a lighter sentence mainly because he came from people who had suffered at the hands of whites. Those who administer the law failed to see how deeply racist they are against the black population

the class think
The class thing
I’m working class from the very beginning, my mother worked in a fish factory putting sardines
In the meantime, she went to work before me. My breakfast was standing in the kitchen, eating a slice of bread with margarine. if the school served breakfast, I ate there
I noticed early in life that those who spoke with educated voices got better treatment than we who spoke the street parlance
I tried to speak as the educated did, which made me tongue-tied and deeply shy, but it helped me to get an education of sorts
It was only after stumbling,...

Too Hot to Focus
Pratik was terrible at accounts. Totally lost when it came to balance sheets and journal entries. I used to visit him in his room to help out, sitting close beside him on the floor while he tried to follow along.
That day, it was *crazy* hot. I wore just a loose t-shirt and my favorite short elastic shorts—no panties, obviously. I wasn’t trying to tease… not *at first*. But the way he kept glancing at my thighs every time I leaned over made it too tempting.
“Pratik,” I said, half-laughing, “you’re not even looking at the notes.”
He fumbled, flustered. “I-I’m...

Cyber truck
Cyber Truck
The tariff, we should not take it too seriously, it can be negotiated and reduced
Trump likes to make deals, so give him an offer and see how it pans out
Rember this in four years, a new administration
Might think of it as a bad idea and scrap it
The cyber truck is a failure, because it is not a truck the way we think a car should look. Nevertheless, I accept one even if damaged by fingermarks or scraped by idiotic left-wing housewives who are possibly sexually frustrated
Because, I think that the truck can be driven as
a normal car by...

narcissism and tariffs
Narcissism and Tariffs
On the TV, we see the chief narcissist in full flow, the showman of the year. Since I know very little about the economy, I shall refrain from making comments about tariffs, only a system of long-distance boxing. I know of words like solar plexus and upper cut, and not to hit below the belt, but also not to wear the belt too high over the navel; therefore, hitting the penguins on the Norfolk Islands with a hefty tariff is unlawful and below the belt, round one goes to the birds Likewise, as Joe Rogan says, sending a tattoo artist to a notorious jail abroad...

Chapter 2:
The Bone
and the Ballad.
He brought her a bone.
White, clean, from a rabbit.
She ignored it. Mud.
She ate mud.
He howled.
A long, sad sound.
It went across the fields.
The cows looked.
The chickens clucked.
She did not look...
I will miss all of you...

a brief visit
A brief visit
I sat trying to write
A poem of love
Yes, once Love hit me hard
I sensed someone
Standing beside my chair
Yes, it was her
Twenty years had gone
She looked the same
She smiled with eyes of love
Then, she faded away
I sat trying to write
A poem of love
Yes, once Love hit me hard
I sensed someone
Standing beside my chair
Yes, it was her
Twenty years had gone
She looked the same
She smiled with eyes of love
Then, she faded away

Equines
One really ought to start with the beginning, only it goes so long back
That it is impossible to remember.
I remember being born, but that was just an interlude, cold and
Unpleasant and being kissed by strangers.
I like horses, but that has nothing to do with my inception.
But then, was anyone ever born,
we are just a part of a bigger
A broader picture where we but an unconscious number
But I do like horses and would have loved galloping across some
Grassland and jumping over brooks.
And now we have emboli fever, which is either...
