About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

This Curse - By Alan Hauenstein

I run to the closet,
hoping to find security.
I push thru the crowd,
not wanting to stand in line.
Looking into the mirror,
I see what is standing there.
Cold icicles for a frosty spine.

A blanketed expression,
covered with just a stare.
Cheerless eyes,
look back into mine.
They say something,
I cannot perceive the line.
Why why, why?

Random impressions,
run thru my mind.
An impression,
forms on your mind.
Transfusion to confusion.
My mind,
is in a cloud.

When the smoke does clear,
will I understand this life?
For what is,
this life?
If not to try to clear the smoke,
depression from your mind.
The poem's a joke,
it does have few rhythms!

This is Jim Hauenstein,

And my brother's poem was used as a song in the late 1980's by the band:
Two Buck Howie With The Exact Change.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
