An open letter to Sallie Mae

16 September, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Dear Sallie;

I am very frustrated with the “economic” norm that has become of this culture; marginalizing and subjugating the “lower” classes that are filled with people that contribute a tenably equivalent amount to society as the “top ten percent” do – BUT are inhibited by you and institutions of your kind, by that very “top ten percent” that I speak of… inhibited from breaking loose of these inhumane binds that you and that ten percent have sentenced me and my kin to! —That being said; I have experienced the learned helplessness that Milgrim taught his depressed and lethargic dogs.– Yes; you have won. You have won you contemporary Hitlers of the world; you Maos! you slave drivers! you despots! heretics! you lost and lonely dark corners of the world! The true criminals! Yes; you have won today. You have won with this “Smart Option Student Loan” — but I prophess to you: It shall not be long – your day too shall come – justice – righteousness – the table is always turning – you will one day too be free from your evil binds – you will see the light and finally be happy – of course you will not have money and will be the contemporary slave to the neo-culture in which you will be a part. But alas quand les poules auront des dents….

 

With that I regress: I am sure you will do what you believe to be right; and I will be one of your subjects, waiting for the results. As Sallie Mae has done this for over 30 years, I assume she will continue to do her “best”. So you keep on poking and prodding! Do your best! And try to find peace in all you do! — But with personal note I ask you to remember that these are people that you affect, just like your family members and friends; people that are just trying to make it in the world, people just like you. With that tid bit always in the back of your mind; I trust you will do quite a fine job.

 

I do hope the extravagantly invective, incriminating voice was not taken too much to heart; it was meant as artistically rhetorical expression to bring the point home. I sincerely do trust that you, as a human being, are a fine and respectful person; the “you” that I refer to is meant to express a feeling of immense victimization felt by the subject of the contemporary economic situation that your employer is a major cog of. “You” is not referring to you singularly or personally.

 

In Peace; for you, and all others.

a lowly client

 

I just sent this to Sallie following her inquisition for my opinion of her “Smart Option Student Loan” – this was following her rejection of my loan application - A sliver of me regrets sending this annotated hot air.

psilocybin and psilocin

Jesus is an amazing man!

Shrooms tell me to go on adventures. To far away un escapaded lands of endless beauty and mystery. Like a flower, where every peddle has endless beauty and idiosyncrasies. An adventure unto itself. The colors. The figures. The beings. All stories. Wondrous stories. With clouds and magicians and flowers blooming from the pedal itself. A vast warp of timeless beauty, never ending, and always being right now!

Around the world. Trips and shit

my future as a male escort

10 January, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Yesterday; I was sitting at a bar, writing, having a few drinks before I went home after a long day of being fired from Starbucks, saying goodbye to a relationship of three-and-a-half-years, and seeking a replacement-job when a conversation that was being had between two men sitting next to me became more interesting than my rather sulk-esque writing: “Your patients have insurance companies to pay you with but my clients have their wealthy husband’s money.” One of the men is a doctor, the other, a male-escort; the male-escort makes more money than the doctor. . . . heeeh
