Simple images
have an advantage to show
simple facts quickly.
Thus the data entry form
that ends the task to inform:
Time doesn’t exist,
but works on Bill’s consciousness
which he will resist.
[Hastings]
We need to be efficient.
You wait here and I’ll be quick
And he blitzed from car
to office door, that’s not far,
hit the keypad code,
and internally extolled
aptly for efficiency.
Three minutes later,
for sure not a sprinting blur,
but supremely quick,
Hastings shifted the gear stick,
confidently and smoothly,
expectantly clear
that sheer will-power is less
than efficient acts.
With two short minutes to spare
the pair exited the car
and repaired to share
their opinions in Brenda’s
ample dancehall space
with others seated behind
tables and fine chairs arranged
to accommodate
eye contact’s weight upon words
seeking Truth’s rewards.
A loose octagonal shape,
eight tables made around space
centered on the floor
where dance routines explored moves
to behoove beauty
with flowing harmonious
lines laced with tension’s good grace.
To anchor mindsets,
tables two, four, six and eight
kept reflections straight
with their prominent display
of the array of three coins
joined on a banner
unfurled in a manner draped
from each table’s top
with the smart, defined outline
expressed in Johnathan’s chart
that Kevin perceived
when he received his good gift
to lift his spirit.
Autumn’s warm tone browns and gold
with bold, black lettering formed
the philosophy
on a creamy beige fringed field
to yield forbearance
of commonly held values
to eschew lies and deceits.
As per usual
this biannual affair
will bare Robert’s seal
as the facilitator
to manage the zeal’s contour
to heighten members’
enlightenment of issues
to benefit all
regarding growth, maintenance
and welfare to bare actions
pragmatic, concrete
and effectively performed
to reform methods.
First step was Compton’s Note read,
then Robert sped to the guilds’
summary reports
before he’d transport focus
to open debate.
[Johnathan]
We have four farms aligned
to provide sublime local produce
to our co-op to reduce our inconvenience
and dependence on exports.
Additionally, I’m happy to report
that our expenditure to procure what we need
could be reduced more for sure
since I’ve entered into an agreement
with an East Asian farmer for rice
and to suffice our payment with bushels of apples.
[Bob]
Nala, you’re from the Numbers Guild.
What would fulfill all requirements
to cement this transition?
[Nala]
I think Johnathan’s action
provides us some traction
to influence a community
thus far oblivious to our unity.
However, the price of rice
to offset our sale of apples
needs a more precise assessment
than the relevant measure of total gross weights.
The cost of importing rice
must be balanced
against the advancement of apple sales.
Our surplus after our needs are met
is a subset that effects any advantage.
I will work with Johnathan
to amend all considerations
into win-win accommodations.
[Bob]
Excellent! Shannon, you’ve been
investigating common storage issues
to find values to pursue
to eschew our rising health care costs.
[Shannon]
Well, I’m thinking we should build a warehouse
because, when Tom Swan and his spouse
cared for his terminally ill parents
who had no inheritance to give
because they lost everything and had to live
on their dole from Social Security
with Medicare to square away medical bills,
I got chills projecting my parents
into a similar predicament
that we should circumvent.
Anyway, Tom told me, in frustration,
about hospital beds for his mom and dad
that had been paid in full as rent to buy
through Medicare’s mission to care for seniors,
but his anger flared when he became aware
that the pharmacy could resell those beds
due to Tom’s inefficiency to open his mail.
The letter, opened too late
to abate the loss, gave them only thirty days
to say they would keep the beds
and would pay for any needed maintenance
should problems occur to secure the required fix.
We have a growing elderly population
vulnerable to the same economic castration.
A substantial facility to store such equipment
will increase our ability to offset health costs
for those crucified upon the debtors cross
at the hands of governmental profiteers
who sneer at the vast mass of ordinary folks
working day in, day out, paying their bills
unprotected from the ravage of serious, physical ills.
[Bob]
William, will you initiate the Legal Guild’s investigation
of the correct legal path in our participation into Shannon’s proposal
to follow through with acquisitions and constructions?
[Hastings]
A Not-For-Profit might be the way to go.
I will know more as I confer with others
to deter errors in determining the transferring mechanism
for securing resources for these courses of improvement.
[Bob]
Nala, please slip into Personnel
to see who is well equipped for this task.
[Crystal]
When we expire, we participate
in the great plan to recycle
the periodic elements that formulate
the biochemistry that procreates more life.
I’ll alert the Educational Guild
to build some sound lessons around
Nature’s apparatuses to recycle
carbon, water, nitrogen and other gems
found to move throughout diverse niches
to carry out the vital processes
required to sustain life on Earth.
It’s worth our time and effort
to sort out the parts and functions
of the tangibles brought forth
to comport with the Intangible Primary Force’s
premeditated course of cause-effect chains
that contain the illusion of time
since prerequisite events must be met
before requisite conditions
position themselves in relationships
to evolve into higher, more enlightened wills
seeking to counter the ills
mistakenly propagated by unevolved naivety
or forcibly dictated by narcissistic ignorance —
bullies are counterproductive
and must be overcome even when combative.
Accountability is the sensitivity
that drives The Creator’s bequeathed responsibility
to grow and evolve or perish
according to The Prime Mover’s natural justice
interwoven throughout Reality.
What a grievous error we make
when we forsake the truth of accountability
that deems each and every choice made
to have its own unique consequence
regardless of the countenance of the individual
or community seeking conformity in behavior.
We, too, exist within that reality.
[Nala]
I think Crystal is so in tune
with what we presumed would be
a great improvement over our government’s
selfish leaders who impugned expert advice
to protect over five hundred thousand plus lives
who died in the pandemic from idiotic falsehoods,
orchestrated deceits and inflamed passions
to confuse and deride good health care strategies.
We all resolved to evolve differently
than our leadership that devolved
from democracy into the lunacy
of temporal, personal gain
via chaos, lies, deceits and fear
that appeared ruthlessly cavalier
to the plight of the country’s population
over an attempted political coup
by a select, privileged few in key positions
that displayed zero contrition
for their part in supporting and promoting
their disastrous contempt for democratic rule.
Our School cannot be neutral.
It must be dutifully aligned
with the values designed throughout the three coins
joined in Compton’s gestalt to inform
our children, our community, to scorn
deceitfulness and seek truth and harmony,
not greed and exclusivity.
Recycling material and distributing resources
equitably to relieve the insecurity
inflamed with the fear of being unable to procure
the surety of living well to thrive beyond surviving
is a fundamental principle of the masterful subtlety
of the Prime Mover’s decree to efficiently expand
a boundary-free reality
containing internal restraining borders
like cell membranes that constrain
movement in and out for human health
or like synaptic receptors that regulate neurotransmitters
or like our skin that defines my space
and protects.
This created reality potentially expands infinitely.
[Bob]
It’s reaffirming for me to witness
this unsolicited display to convey
our willingness to confess
the need to address our success
as dependent upon our ability
not to succumb to ego’s sovereignty
over the human heart’s integrity
to share the wealth of our fortunate conquests.
All forms of our human activity
must be intimately interconnected.
However, this is not about utopian perfection.
It’s about our inspection of our life-processes
to remove our naïveté and ignorance
to harmonize with the actual prize of success.
Two Sides of the Same Coin
cannot be ignored
as The Ultimate Lesson Learned
that moved a concerned will
to spill hot molten metal
into the preformed mold to hold
this truth for every citizen
seeking such a vision
to settle any dispute
that freedom reigns from the responsibility
impeccably employed by individuals
who have learned the power of self-discipline.
We will not instantly achieve full integration.
Learning is earned insight that improves aspirations.
Our sustainability must contain
sound financial accountability.
The Numbers and Personnel guilds
will fill their coordinated time
to find the needed finances
for advances in our health care performance.
The Legal Guild will plot the legal path to take.
Now, let’s break to take in some nourishment.
