On Morality
Religion and philosophy have often sought what is, and isn’t moral.
Few have looked at fundamentals that deal with all morality. As I
see it, one fundamental point is that, like love, morality takes two
– one to do and another to judge. After all, does anyone worry
about flatulence in an empty room?

Eye On the World – Choose an Essay
Inde-Politics & Socio-Capitalism
BRIT NEWS: 12 yr old girl with swine flu bullied
by texts. It seems to me that new ways of bringing
up kids is doing nothing to civilize them.
GREEN NEWS: How to go green power company style. Hand out
energy saving bulbs to duck the need for proper policies. Welcome
to eco-cosmetic quackery.
CRIME NEWS: Brit police stopped & searched one million
people last year. Time police hierarchy stopped
& searched their souls and remembered
their place.

RATTLER’S TALE
A Voyage of the Imagination
REFLECTION OF HOME
Growing up, a boring place,
Had to leave, utmost haste,
Country town, nothing doing,
Sheep and pigs and cattle mooing;
Thirty years down the road,
Returning to my old abode,
All is changed, a wonderful place,
Thirty years; what a waste
FLASH 55 – YOU’RE DEAD
Fiction: The psychic got the shock of her life when the ghost first
appeared before her. ‘I want to show you my murderer,’ it said, which
disturbed the psychic even more. But what could she do other than
follow it. Finally finding herself in front of a mirror she saw a reflection
of her own guilt.
THE JUMP
I did the jump, I really did,
I just did it, as you bid,
People jeered all the same,
I suppose they’re not really to blame;
Just ‘cos I did it, they want me to atone,
Jumping to conclusions, so I’m not alone
