End of War

Raymond Walden, Avignon - France, 2019

The eighth of May 1945:

War was over, so we are told,

but was it?

It was the year I did arrive,

soon I'll be 75

and, of course, I've considered it

all my life growing old.

Did you ever hear of a peace treaty, about its signing?

Can you mark one year after without war?

Proxy wars are stirred up by former victors till now, very undermining

and tormenting the world at many places as ever before.

Though I was born into this ruined Germany,

had to flee later from East to West,

where I experienced freedom and Human Rights' philosophy,

I've lived, for sure, in a democracy – one of its best!

So I feel grateful to all people in the world, where so ever,

who struggle for liberty, honesty and emancipation.

I would support no discrimination and warmongering, never!

I stand up for true humanity, solidarity and education.

But I recognize democracy worldwide is dying,

money, nationalism, weapons and violence are ruling instead,

preachers and ideologists are denying

what is going on in a real peace-loving head.

I feel free to honor all heroes of consequent liberty

and dedicate to them all – famous and unknown ones – 
my document of peace and dignity

by this Blog of Cosmonomic Philosophy.

May enlightenment improve

and prevent war by wisdom and empathy.

Where, otherwise, would we move

in this present pandemic agony?

"First" is Last

Who do you think you are:

First ?

Last !

Whoever, wherever, is believing in being first as a nation, as a people, a single person, or a religious community, is the least

that mankind is not needing at all.

Mankind is first !

You don't understand?

Yes, I thought so.

My words are dedicated to encourage enlightened people who think about a cosmonomic life in dignity, freedom and emancipation

first and further.

Non-divine Humanity

O distinguished thirst for justice,

they moisten your lips with fire-water

and roughen your throat by offering just vinegar.

Refuse to swallow this splashed drink

which is served by hidden smiling

in consciousness of its bad effectiveness

by mixing glamerous unfairnesses,

and in poisoned intention.

“Cheers”, they say

meaning just themselves – not you.

O dignified hunger for emancipation,

they fob you off with toads,

feed you with flatulent grub.

Don’t gulp down what they are offering to you

by the insolence of the right of the strongest,

by the injustice of the richer ones and freebooters

and by bloody slavery.

“Enjoy the meal”, they celebrate the repast,

always providing themselves with the best – not you.

Your thirst, your hunger, o humanity,

they are suffocated

because of your innocence,

your credulity and brain-washed stupidity.

You are religious?

Any God declares you to be dust?

And you are praising him for this?

Right away you are attackable

because  of your God’s arrogance

of being the only truth,

and accordingly, the rediculously holy cause

of culture fights and wars of extermination.

Thus experienced as common practice,

o humanity, you don’t have any scruples

about living out your western, christian-jewish richness

at the expense of the poor ones, of the Third World.

But you don’t have the right of that.

Your God, like all other Gods,

Is not only illusion

but the evil.

Satisfying your thirst for justice,

your hunger for emancipation,

vote out the cup of blood,

the body eating of a psychopathic prophecy.

Define responsibly

what you drink, what you eat.

The table of your life

is to be set and decorated by yourself.

Eating and drinking unfold the honesty of life.

May the uprightness rise exemplarily as non-divine humanity.
