Who Will Protect Us from the Police?


Who Will Protect Us from the Police?


...as the pendulum begins swinging back through the buildings of fear that were erected by the jailers of men...the Fall of Rome will echo 10,000 fold and we, a species of Mother Earth, will return to community living, or we will perish behind the red tape of the bureaucratic police state.

Fading Days


The Future wistfully unveils itself in sunset skies, and washes the fading waves of melancholy from a million minds…

The Crystal Shard


The beginning of a novel I am working on: "The Crystal Shard"

By: Stewart Brennan

Surrounded by specks that mirrored and flashed the late afternoon sunlight, David Thomas sat there on a mound of dirt, digging, as if possessed by some inner knowledge for a forgotten treasure that lay hidden below this mountain of discarded rocks.

The cuts and scrapes on his fingers begged him to stop as he clawed at the layers of caked earth and sharp stones, but he was possessed by some blind intuition as if there was something there for him to find. As he dug, everything around him seemed to move in slow motion as distant memories shrouded in a dream like twilight played on his mind. One by one he recounted the series of events that connected him to this very moment, searching for some logical answer that put him in this place far from home. Every passing thought he recalled was somehow connected to this very moment. He felt déjà vu by it…as if he had been here before.

Moving from one thought to another, connecting this moment, David found himself in the middle of a tall Black Pine forest north of Superior, surrounded by Earth’s natural energy, and his sense of purpose. Everything seemed in harmony here, and it soothed his soul to be there. The air was cool and fresh with only the sounds of the wind at his back that carried the cries of a few ravens, sparrows, and the occasional tappings of a woodpecker. Glancing up only once or twice, he looked like a lone wolf digging anxiously for something that eluded him under the mound of dirt and rock that only he could sense but not get at.

Then, as if two powerful magnets aligned, his fingers found the face of a smooth polished surface. Could this be what he had been looking for?

In an instant, as if all the surrounding energies merged with his, a burst of life cursed through David as he quickly pulled the shard up from the ground and brushed off the mud to reveal what looked like a dark piece of glass.

Moving quickly over to a bucket of water, he washed the remaining mud off of the smooth flat surface of his find and raised it above his head into the air to take a good look at it. As he slowly turned and angled the violet glass into the sun, it cast rays of light all over the ground that seemed to dance and move in rainbow colored patterns as he angled it back and forth. The triangular shaped shard was flat and smooth with two jagged edges as if it had been broken off a larger piece. The third edge was perfectly flat and cut at an angle.

Gazing at the crystals surface revealed what looked like an organized pattern inside. David raised the shard above his head once again and peered into the crystal through the sunlight to reveal what looked like a rainbow of floating orbs circling a smaller dark mass.

As the spectacle dancing before him engaged his thoughts, a bright warming light illuminated his face and a violet glow could be seen around the edges of the crystal. A calming flush of tranquility descended upon him and made him feel as if he was floating. The stinging pain in his fingers was suddenly gone, and for a moment he felt at peace within himself.

Pulling his gaze away, David put the shard into his shirt pocket. The moment felt so familiar, so distant, and yet, he knew he had found what he come here for.

Prison Planet


Prison Planet

Indoctrination, the dark day arrives
to roll rocks up hill the rest of our lives
Sisyphean schools prepare all the slaves
demanding allegiance, straight to our graves.

Industrialization, hands of greed
furnace of fire, consumption of need
promised inclusion to a wealthy feast
plate of deceptions with mark of the beast.

A mortgage or lease to live on the land
the planet is owned, every grain of sand
all fancy jails, our homes on the earth
with labor enslaved by fires of hearth.

The work force beckons or death on the streets
no place to escape, it all just repeats
both forms of torture bring forth despair
and stress for survival where nobody cares.

Consumer engines speeds up production
with waste produced that brings our destruction
disposable things, expendable lives
with a failure at peak when it arrives.

Destructive system where you are not free
a garbage disposal on land and sea
with roads overheating as stress bears down
supply lines will break, the system will drown.

On governing tables, rules to ensure
all decided so the beast may endure
no changes permitted to ruling cast
a proclamation that is made to last.

A global warming, the blame is on you
not the system of growth owned by the few?
We’ve been here before as history recalls
excuses galore as the empire falls.

Humanity suffers, hangs from a vine
while grape picker taxes empty your stein
illusions are formed if you get ahead
all in reliance till system is dead.

There’s no escaping nor is there a vote
with castles of strife and oceans their moat
the system owns you, no matter your place
born into bondage is the human race.

Poem written (July 23rd, 2022)

Note: Sisyphus or Sisyphos, a king of Ephyra now known as Corinth was punished by Zeus for cheating death twice and forced him to roll an immense boulder up a hill only for it to roll down every time it neared the top, repeating this action for eternity.

Through the classical influence on today’s so called, modern culture, tasks that are both laborious and futile are described as “Sisyphean” – (Sis-y-phe-an)

The official text on World History is nothing more than a long list of sickly achievements made by sociopathic monsters who aggrandize themselves by making sure they come off smelling like roses to the general population they are preying on. ~ Stewart Brennan
