DOOM 2

"Death is very fair, no matter how rich you are -you only get one per customer."  old Zen saying

aloha 2u,
i have been remiss in my prior blog.i got distracted.
a Comment by my Eldest Z Man, reminded me...

me and Korak the Killer were doing a night patrol
outside the hotel
where i first met The Mirage.
some hare brained crackhead kept yelling insults at us
motherfucker this,nigger that, cracker ass whatever.
even tho a deadly combat vet of several tours in 'Nam,
where Korak explored exactly how much he enjoyed killing
at Khe Sanh and other battles,Korak always deferred to me
as the ALPHA DOG in our relationship,
The Mirage calls him my FIRST WIFE
(5 years with him,5 with her,19+ with SM;)
3rd times the charm.).

so as usual i was the cooler head and said
BE COOL, but this crazy ass nigger crackhead
followed us around an entire city block yelling insults
and we had a rep to manitain & build in the dangerous
and merciless Tenderloin where some rich fools
& the City Fathers
decided to build a luxury hotel....
so finally i had enuff and as Korak smiled i said GO!
and we turned to demolish this fool.

now both of us
were around 200 pounds six foot tall and masters
of armed and unarmed combat
so a plea of Self Defense in court  would be hard
to hold up in court but there are ways around that....
esp. if this fool nigger was dead and in a dumpster.....
so we turn as one and approach this fool. alone
and unafraid of us on this empty street.....
when out of nowhere another crackhead appears
and grabs his arm,dragging him away from us.
"No,no man. they ain't like them others hotel cops, 
these guys will KILL you!"
who he was, or how he came to be watching
i will never know but somehow he managed to
convince the now silent
crackhead of our deadly intent.
i have to admit that it was with a feeling
of regret/loss that
we taunted the departing crackhead to return
to his foolish and deadly ways...;(

this is proably a good place to mention
that is a combat Vet says
"I've got your back."
it is the highest compliment he can give.
there were times Korak and i faced off
10 or 15 to 1 odds
and i knew the only way i could be struck
from behind was if Korak was dead.
THAT is something i prized beyond
measure or mere words,
just like in '7 Samurai'....

i was raised for battle,
a child of urban warfare.
this is no exaggeration,
as longtime readers will recall, an untold tale
in High School i wore a white snapbrim cap,
like those worn by Longshoremen.
in Harlem this cap was also the cap/badge
of a deadly street gang called The Assassins,
whose leader Shorty had killed a rival gangster
in front of NYPD cops, they were That brazen.

anyway i'm riding the subway to school one day
when i was bluntly informed that
i Should,for the sake of my Health,
remove the cap/badge of the Assassisn
from my noggin
OR ELSE......

my reply?
"i wear wear this fucking cap until it falls off.
i ride the same train everyday,if you don't like it
-you know where to find me."
i wore the cap,unscathed,until it fell apart....
this is the lessons of the Ghetto and combat
that sr8s don't appreciate.

as a child of Harlem
i never expected to live past 21
so the 42 years since then
of love,children
and LSD have all been gravy,
an unexpected gift.

i love SM beyond words
but Live Together but
Die Alone.
I AM STILL PREPARED TO DIE...

Peace Now

DOOM

aloha2u,
one of  my personal heroes died this week, Elmer "Geronimo" Pratt.
let me stray from the official fishwrap
stories and tell you what i know of Geronimo.

L.A. in the 1960s was a hotbed of Anti War activities amidst
a seething cauldron of die hard racism and deadly cops of the LAPD.
when i had left by turned my lesbian fisting for celebrities coke whore cousin
i began to read the local fishwraps and watch TV News.....

after the Watts Riots it was a bad time to be black in L.A.
Pratt was a much decorated Viet Nam vet and a courageous man
and you had to be in order to lead the L.A.Black Panthers.
he had somehow survived a shoot out which left
several members dead and his war skills kept him alive
despite paid informers and many attempts on his life,
so they framed him,locked him up and threw away the key.

here's how it went down, a perfect storm of duplicity.
one weekend Pratt went to Oakland for a Panther meet,
followed by tails from the LAPD and Hoover's FBI ,
that same weekend some nigger killed
a rich white lady on a tennis court
and as i recall wounded her husband.
when Pratt returned from Oakland
he was arrested for murder,say what?
now the vain Left poster child "Free Huey"
Huey P. Newton saw Pratt as a sane and
sober threat to his eccentric Panther leadership
so put members Under Discipline not to verify that
Pratt was in Oakland that weekend
and the LAP/FBI tandem could hardly conceal
their delight as Pratt was railroaded straight into stir.

BTW i did not know Pratt personally but only by
reputation as a fierce intelligent man.2 peeps that i did know
personally at the time were Shirley Sutherland (actor Donald's EX)
and her partner Donald Freed,two non violent activists who
started the L.A.Peace Freedom Party from their Venice home.
i did say 'non violent' right?
so everyone who knew them were as shocked as they were
to be arrested by the LAPD on totally Bogus gun running charges.
it took every penny they had plus years of lawyering to stay out of prison,
by the time they were vindicated their spirits were broken...sigh.
meanwhile Pratt sat in prison,

OJ Simpson went on trial for a double murder
he committed, yes i said it,and one of his lawyers
the flamboyant Johnny Cochran used some of that money
,along with the help of Ex Panther turned lawyer Kathleen Cleaver
(Eldridge's EX), to get Pratt out of prison after 20 odd years,
roughly half of that in solitary confinement.like
George Jackson and some other black political prisoners
they could Not break him.(sigh Not Paranoid,just very observant).

as for me, i fled the unloved over hyped L.A. to NYC then Frisco
where i was just another nigger stopped by the SFPD
about the random  Zebra killings of whites.
as in L.A.in that era,a nigger's life was cheap
on the streets.

when Pratt died this week
i was stunned to see that he is my age,63,
and for the last decade has lived a quiet life in Tarzana.
my age,all those lost years in prison.....huge weary sigh.

there is a samurai term in Japanese for
'impending sense of Doom'
as in the 60s. when i was active there we had
cops in 'plainclothes' showing their guns and
cop shoes at meetings,we had the LAPD with shotguns
running thru peaceful crowds of thousands at Griffith Park
and the so called Red Squad had  betting pools
on who would be shot down next,or so i was told
after i helped staff a press conference for
ex Green Beret S/Sgt.Donald Duncan
to announce Viet Nam Vets Against The War.
even then,being new at samurai ways
but having been raised in Gladiator School Harlem
I WAS PREPARED TO DIE...but others were not
and were unwilling to pick of the bloody banner
and continue to fight,so i and others fled....

back to Doom, after the Gina Sasso Memorial
Soul Mate and i took a leisurely drive down E.14 Street
from its origins at Lake Merritt to San Leandro....
imagine Detroit in a bad decade or Baghdad after the bombings
the same listless fly swatting ennui that permeates the soul to the bone.
there is an all black motorcycle club/gang
at 88th & E.14th,the East Bay Dragons.
i worked with one of its founders at Moscone,
where he died of a crack overdose while on duty.

anyway there were hundreds of black peeps on the street
for the Dragons annual black party Deep in Da Hood
(this where deceased coke kingpin Felix Mitchell
rose to power in the 1980s)
an overwhelming  sense of Doom drenched
the otherwise festive occassin and
there was not a cop in sight.

hours later peeps were doing 'sideshows',
burning rubber and doing donuts in the intersection there,
when someone decided it would be a great idea
to fire 10 shots in the crowd....
2 dead, 1 in critical condition
and a few wounded,no arrests.
impending Doom....

it is raining heavily here in "Paradise'
my new insulin is giving me more joint pains
than i am used to.'Dr.Death' Kevorkian
has died of nartural causes, which is both
funny and ironic. i at last have a day to do nothing
beside comprehend our new DVR and lower my blood sugars.
the new Trochwood series debuts next month
and True Blood returns ,so i am in Premium cable TV Heaven ;)

O BOMBER WHERE IS PEACE?!

Peace Now
