We are the 100%

Pretty much everyone is talking about word-wide protests and the Occupy movement constantly right now. I talk about it pretty much every day because every day something new happens. With its beginnings I have come to think about how I view the system. The way I look at how economics and social issues relate to each other has evolved drastically as I’ve returned to studying critical theory like Marx, Weber, feminist economists and systems theorists.

Sonnet of the Sweet Complaint

Never let me lose the marvel
of your statue-like eyes, or the accent
the solitary rose of your breath
places on my cheek at night.

I am afraid of being, on this shore,
a branchless trunk, and what I most regret
is having no flower, pulp, or clay
for the worm of my despair.

If you are my hidden treasure,
if you are my cross, my dampened pain,
if I am a dog, and you alone my master,

never let me lose what I have gained,
and adorn the branches of your river
with leaves of my estranged Autumn.

~~Federico Garcia Lorca

Just Put your lips together….

“You know you don’t have to act with me, Steve. You don’t have to say anything, and you don’t have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don’t you, Steve? You just put your lips together and blow.“

~~Lauren Bacall

Literal

You know you have a Dominant streak when you take figurative speech literally:

“He wears the skirt in the relationship.” <——- with matching ruffled panties & a tiara.

“She walks all over him.” <—–with soft soled boots.

“He’s Whipped.”<——-with a paddle.

I could go on, but I think you get the point.
