so ya wanna know about madness? i'll tell you it be that you find yerself wanting to believe this Bozo-crap coming out of them closed doors of BIG American business. Wanting and actually starting to believe. This is the worst madness of all... the starting to believe, because something deep down in yer ugly guts knows the kick in the balls is just a heartbeat away, even if ya don't see it coming just yet.

Mere Madness

MADNESS SPRINGS ETERNAL!
Eternal madness.
Madness, eternal.
Spring's madness.
On the ride home from work late last night the madness of a hoot owl high in a cedar tree
on 12th avenue.
RODENTS' BEWARE!

seasonal equality

The sweet sweet madness of the vernal equinox bursting forth in the blossoming cherry and plum trees... the madness of the promises of spring as it sets about warming our cold and weary winter bones. The madness of a culture that manages to ignore this cosmic phenomenon, opting to change the channel to American Idol. Such perverse priorities!
I vote for THE MADNESS OF SPRING! Oh glorious spring. Sexy spring!
I am giddy with its sensuality, mainly because i happen to have the day of the equinox off this year. Otherwise, i would be grumbling about the usual B.S. at the temples.
BUT WAIT: what's that i hear coming down the path? Yes, tis the madness of Easter, and the madness of the littered aftermath scattered helter-skelter throughout The Temple Of Wages.. perhaps it's all cleverly designed to keep me from getting just too damned giddy.
I will defiantly rejoice in the madness of the equinox.
What the hell....

The madness of chocolate Newman bars that I’m addicted to just like popcorn and corn chips

The madness of tropical mosquitoes carrying dengue fever and West Nile Virus

And the madness of polar bears swimming in deep waters trying to reach the last shelf of ice that’s starting to break away

The madness of the moon rising and receding behind the storm clouds

The madness of women and sex and no sex but too many women to chose from until there are no choices left

The madness of back roads going nowhere special and too many highways and freeways all going to the same places

The madness of going back home to a place that’s not really home and never has been

madness - i tells you it's manuals that are as clear as mud. it's directions that seem to be missing a step (or two) at critical points. it's the order form that doesn't have an address, only a website ....

madness - it's no quality control at the factory. it's salesmen that do not know what they are selling. it's the sale, money in and who cares if the customer comes back.

madness - it's trying to do something right and not knowing the exact steps .... so it gets done three or four times before it gets right - mostly by accident.

The madness of that dream about the baseball player (shortstop) who chased the ground ball into the ocean, which was short center field, hit his head on a rock and died.The runner was safe.

Oh yes, the madness of the city bureaucracy, that in the end treats you like an uncomfortable corn on the foot of their plans. They just want you to "GO AWAY, and don't bother us anymore! Can't you see we're busy here eating donuts?"
The madness of our attempts to get a wee bit of justice out of "the system".
HA! That was madness!!!! Our futile madness.
The madness of people who should be ashamed of themselves, but who instead take some sort of twisted pleasure in causing other people discomfort.
Yes, the crazy madness of our discomfort, and of their utter shamelessness.
The madness of neighbors.

The madness of 59 orbits and who knows how many more to come..
The exalting madness of the first asparagus popping up in the march garden..
The madness of each and every moment that passes...

the madness of thousands of GMO corn fields in the Midwest
which supply the nation's fast food chains and junk food
industries
the madness of corn fed cattle penned up in feed lots
and the obesity of Americans raised on a diet of fat and starch
and the madness of the billions of gallons of fuel consumed
to produce the monoculture crop of unedible kernels of synthetic crap
while starvation continues in the millions around the world
the madness of corn and more corn that is not even corn but some
frankensteinian creation from the chemical labs that resist
pesticides where no living organism like a worm or bug can live
and the madness of the chemical runoff into the rivers and waterways
and more corn for high fructose corn sweeteners for sodas and fast food burgers
to consume on a daily basis to grow fatter and fatter until we explode
like a huge balloon of shit in the pants capitalism

THE MADNESS OF OVER-RIPE BANANAS!
