Whose Mind is it Anyway

June 30, 2022 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

the way the personality comes about being expressed
static, concrete and remote
and the way of the mind
dynamic, fluid and worldly
yet the personality begets the mind
so it only fluctuates within the personality’s paradigm
The Mind expresses it’s views
and we are ruled by the Personality placed in perfect, privileged position
and this is how the constitution, bill of rights and laws go about presiding over our being
per the opinionated perspective of The Beholder
which most times
is in the ideal and uplift of the European Male
with the same object, cultural and gender-dominated worldview
therefore incentives be damned,
if not for the advancement and conquest initiated and illustrated by the European Male
therefore the interpretation of laws is just the deepest look inside the privileged European Male’s Mind
and it’s dominating thought
which oozes into the Unknowing Many
whom perpetuate this Mindstate
ripe with rhetorical rhetoric
which alludes the Freedom of Hope
yet sneakily constructs a reality it’s participants form
ignorantly to their own dismemberment
and eventual destruction
because Self Determination has become Personally Extinct
and left to the Mind of the “Man”

to say this frankly,
the more we agree
the more European Males We Become
all being suggested upon
what we don’t realize is
everyone wants to be the Man
Why?
well innately we all are the Man
though lost and forgotten
that is to say, gods
Regal in our Own Divine Right
but we are unbecoming the Man
that the Man has created
given most of our agreed upon mores
are constructs of this ominous Man
so we, in trance like states
walk right into His plan

we’ve become active participants and prisoners
in His Mind
expressing the dimensions of His complicated Personality
which always trends towards the same thing
because we aren’t of
One Mind
we are just in
One Mind
and thoughts make the Man
and we are what He thinks of us
because Personality shapes Views
and I Am
just a Ruse

He knows that there is NOthing that matters
but Him
and there is NOthing Real about Us

our Personality has become Personal Prisons
far from the fluid vehicle it was once viewed
now it has become a concrete form of Suggestion,
Objectification and Social Control through
racism supremacy and subjugation

reflect on on the implication of what I’m saying

most have No Self
nor Self control
because your Self
is controlled
conditioning your Self beliefs
which believes it decides for its Self
and has control

Delusion.

this is the Genius and Mastery of the Mind
your emotions are just a button
your imagination the game
and your identity is an avatar of how you see yourself
given the coerced views you had to choose and compare from
and perspectives hence
which create the reality you live in anyway…
puppets

how does this make sense?

remember the Mind state that created 50 states
or Personalities-
states of Mind
warring for the rights to this country and Self Determination
remember the conditions of the people here at those times
the different cultures and genders relations
our frameworks created by Mindsets
to which we call Reality
remember those perspectives was of white supremacy
and European Male dominance

women were subjects
minorities were subjects
nature, land and animals were subjects
so to the Man determining the subjects
You are Only Objects
Ignorant Objects audaciously Objectified
by the very things they thought made them different,
free, equal, powerful and considered
maintained by the institutions, systems, doctrines and curriculums henceforth

laws are the umbrella of enforcement
conditioning how we engage our ideals of human humane and humanity
and how our interpretations form our social interactions

the Constitution Parents it all by reinforcing any wayward parts that may seek separation
by reformation to better aid the whole

it is a self-correcting system
always creating the form of its original Self
No matter how many disruptions that spring forth within it
those disruptions are like loose thoughts and opinions
to Mastered Mind powerful enough to shrug them off
dismissing them as worries fears and paranoia from conflicting symptoms of humanity
like an any natural sympathy which thinks against itself
then it regenerates itself within the collective consciousness around it
which it conditioned as a reminder of whom it created itself to be
group think
cognitive dissonance
assimilation
herd mentality-
collective consciousness

this Mind has a system of checks and balances
guaranteeing the refortification of perception, perspective, person, plan and power

for we are just a dismissed thought in this seemingly All Worldly,
All Powerful Mind
this Mind is not God
but has been made to be as God
acting in ways as if it is Thee God
this Mind is that of the Man’s

The Man and his mind
like all minds,
are quite clever and powerful in expressing the Person and the Person’s Reality-
The Personality
of the European Male

we’ve all been duped!
even the European Male
for if a European Male of low class understood the immensity of this truth
he could not keep the secret
his natural intellect would betray the overall goal
spoiling the spoils
creating class revolts
as his ignorance allows tribalism to perpetuate its stronghold of separation amongst the people
whom are polarized by differences
emotionally charged sensationalized and manipulated
because the system to where Mind is Master
is mastered and maintained
by manipulating the Mind
by Master
of whom we deem to be Master
believing ourselves able to be Self Mastered
not realizing that their Self is Mastered
by the Man
whom has Mastered his Mind
creating a theme park
called society
made to entertain and esteem Him
and every so often he enters and intervenes
to make ensure the good time is had
within His frame of Mind
and any defectors make No never mind
they’ll be dealt with in time,
like any wayward thought
lost
killed
forgotten
until YOU awaken in mass
as a cancer in His Mind

Objects

June 30, 2022 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

entities
imaginary realities
hypocritical and contradictive desires
have more precedence over the woman
than that of her own intimate lover
how can a man ever be affirmed in this world
when this world sets precedence over his household,
manhood, children, and his woman’s womanhood
bodily slavery perpetuated through the institution of prison
control of life now reclaimed through the ownership of the womb
and mental slavery perpetuated through the collectively conditioned consciousness of this country
we are all just property

Same Thang, Different Name

June 30, 2022 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

men hating women
men envying women
men controlling women
women acting like men
to relive the pressure of being a woman
conforming into the same oppressive force over womanhood
becoming like the very being which has sought to make her subservient
and nothing more
but the passive response of man’s expressions and conquests
raising her hand just to “be”
and opening herself up so that “he can”
as “he wills”
and her noncompliance making her heretical
and doomed to be imprisoned or extinguished in Man’s society
so she brings her head low
and lifts her legs high
to manifest the best impression suiting the Man’s uplift
managed, maintained and mastered in between her thighs
and if she shall cry foul or ask for her own terms
then she but malcontent, a defect, a germ
for all she is, is what the man earns
and the best she can be, is if she repeats and learns
that this is a Man’s world
and she will forever have to wait her turn
because this land and life
is ruled by sperm
and so she assimilates, healing herself with Stockholm syndrome
while she pleas to the combatant women to stop their resisting
as she becomes the chief exploiter of this woman who dreams of equal power choice and liberation
because she knows her all too well
she once was just like her
but she woke up and came to her senses
or became a realist
realizing like any gang
“you either get down, or you stay down”
but either way, as she is woman, she will always have to “lay down”
because the man envies what he can not have
and what he can not do
so he controls to bring all into his forceful and distorted view
and the woman is the bringer of this force and view
being taught and reminded every waking moment of her position
suggested upon ad nauseum
there is only so much a student can do
but to become like the master
because the pupil gets tired of looking around and at herself
and not seeing anything
therefore the student dreams to be like the master
so when the master looks
he will at least see her
and so she hates herself
and women alike
and joins the man in this fight
and just like the urban community
full of black on black crime
she perpetuates the woman’s plight
with a woman on woman fight
aided by the man
so she will be on the hamster will eternally
fighting for, gaining and losing the exact same rights
Roe V Wade makes her black
and her Stockholm is nothing different than uncle tom syndrome
or ignorance, and blind compliance for hope of relief
which our systems preys upon and sustains itself with
through the minority communities
especially the black ones
we are just the cruel intentions
of the European Male
whether he knows it or not
but the woman,
she knows that she knows more than any boy-like man
bemoaning power
and that is what makes her involvement or fight
with regard to her conscious and conscience
even harder and more sickening
but what do I know
women and minorities stay oppressed
and impressed upon to further oppress themselves
to which they become shells of themselves
black people hate themselves as well
which is why this sick programming system of conditions work so well
everything is done the same
just named different

Optical Ill-lusions

June 30, 2022 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

in other news…

we were watching the news
and I heard a “prisoner” say
“damn, can’t go nowhere
these people is crazy”
a person was shot at subway
for putting too much mayo on a sandwich

imagine how the prisoner feels
when he watches Politicians

imagine how alienated and isolated
the prisoner feels
when he listens to Presidents

imagine how quick the prisoner
flocks to the Preacher
because anything is better than this

but the Preacher
follows the Politician and President
then the prisoner
realizes a deeper prison

all three have become
models and managers
of his imprisonment

when will he/she ever be free?!

Hollow Symbols

June 30, 2022 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

empty symbols
without a cause
except to push
the rhetoric
of America’s deceptive vision
and elusive agenda
of equality and hope

I wasn’t too enthused
when we had the first
Black and Asian Woman for Vice President
I seen it all before
she stood for so many things
that the thing she represented
was still being misrepresented
a symbol for Black peoples
a symbol for Asian peoples
a symbol for intercultural relationships
a symbol for migrants
a symbol for women
and while she stands there in office
life hasn’t gotten better for any of those groups
and women have taken a step back
per Roe V Wade
and the progress she represented
was still misrepresented
into the rhetoric of change
but the preservation of the same broken system
she used to be a prosecutor
and maybe you can’t truly understand that
until you have been a victim of the justice system
but I had to act as if I was happy
as if this great milestone symbolized a giant leap
into the new free and expanded world
that it always was
yet continues to get minimized into the parameters
of European comfort and readiness
yea empty symbols
fool and keep hooked the ignorant
who lack courage or understanding
to look beyond first glance
always manipulated by their emotions
and die a thousand times
for the cause of a cause

Soul Transference

June 30, 2022 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

and I am your vessel
to express your power in this world
and my body my vehicle
to drive the will of your power
through me in this world
I am but the manifestation of you
oh, Amen Ra-the hidden perfecter
Ptah, the Great molder
and Atum, the Complete One
I Am, through You Are
One in the Same
