*********************************
AS I SEE IT (XXXIII)
*****************************
Things are looking up.
At this rate our dissidents will outnumber our dupes.
*
Has any one of our vodanavorjis ever written a sonnet titled
“Yes im anoush commissarneri”?
*
Some of our Diasporan leaders
are Turks who speak Armenian fluently,
I was informed once by one of our elder statesmen.
What about our oligarchs in the Homeland?
Are they human beings?
*
The secret ambition of all ass-kissers
is to be ass-kickers.
*
To cover up blunders is
to promote and legitimize future disasters.
The blame-game is a dead end and
our role models are the scum of the earth.
#
PERVERSIONS
****************************
Some people agree with one another
because they place the strength of unity and consensus
above the weakness of discord.
We are different.
First and foremost we are men of principle
and the principle we believe in and practice
more than any other is self-destruction.
*
If you are judged by your inferiors
you will be found guilty on grounds of superiority.
*
The greater the incompetence of a regime,
the greater the number of its victims.
#
ZERO
********************
The greater the distance between
what you think of yourself
and what others think of you,
the greater the number of conflicts
between you and the world.
*
Paraphrasing Gandhi,
if you reduce yourself to zero
your conflicts will be zero.
*
If you think of yourself as the center of the universe,
you will be wrong even when you are right.
*
If you think God is on your side,
both God and the Devil will conspire against you.
*
And if you think you belong to a nation
that is God’s chosen,
you will be torn to shreds by the scum of the earth.
This is neither theory nor speculation,
neither prediction nor metaphysics,
but historic reality.
