35 ‘til I die
Posted: July 15, 2020 Filed under: Inhibitions Illustrated Leave a commentThe last few years have been a wild ride. Laying down foundations, building, growing. Conquests and triumphs and a fair amount of challenges and tragedies. All part of the journey.
Through it all, I never stopped writing. Was simply working on other forms. Slightly different to the material you typically find on this blog.
If interested in that other side, you’re welcome to check out the work.
Stay safe,
love always

Time Sovereignty
Posted: July 15, 2020 Filed under: Inhibitions Illustrated 2 CommentsFinancial independence
That’s what I’m pursuing
Ownership of my time and control over the options
As far as how I choose to live out my dreams
So I’ll trade my time for bitcoin
Not cloths strips or aggry beads
Or anything based on an ersatz gold monetary standard
That’d only make me a slave to the system
Give me honest money
Not currencies backed only by armies
Digits on screens serving the purpose of counterfeit bills
Sketch for a Theory of Persistent Passions (vii)
Posted: May 17, 2020 Filed under: Inhibitions Illustrated Leave a commentForget days off
If you want to get on and stay on
Because there’s a price to pay
For every bit you earn and coin you own
So only take time out
To sharpen your arsenal
And know there’s nothing comfortable
About journeying to the top
For those who do the most
Understand the cost…
And that time is the only loss
That affects earning potential
Power Brokers: The Case of Connie & Teiid vs The People (ii)
Posted: April 18, 2020 Filed under: Words In Imaginary Motion 1 CommentAll he wanted was to direct markets, payments and innovation like Dave Ramsden
But he didn’t want to be a currency dictator like Montagu Norman
All she wanted was to exercise her powers in the shadows like Dorothy Thompson
But she didn’t want to be part of a structure like the Court of the Bank of England
So when they met at the beach hotel on Cap d’Antibes
They discussed their shared views on money and the impending crisis
And how together they could profit from it
But in order to do so they had to devise a strategy
To set in motion a scheme that would dwarf the Match King’s
And they planned the execution to a tee
Viewing their alliance as a match made in heaven
One that would handle the crisis better than Roger Ferguson and Annette Nazareth during 9/11
(to be cont’d)
An Odyssey For All Eternity
Posted: April 8, 2020 Filed under: Writings by one ambidextrous... 5 CommentsIn times like this
One can’t help but agree with Livy
That the most stable & long-standing empire is that in which subjects take pleasure in obeying
This appears to be the state most citizens of the world are in
Or at least it seems to me
That we care very little for civil liberties
Only when it serves our egos and imagery
On social media – feeds full of trivialities
On the telly – doomsday bulletins, crisis after crisis
On computer screens – conspiracies about digital IDs and 5G…
Reminds me of that 80s film They Live
Most things considered and in all seriousness
One can foresee those who live into the future say, or their offspring hear/read
That once upon a time there was a phenomenon called covid-19
But hardly did society stop to think
That perhaps as part of the great odyssey we call existence
Our collective consciousness is, as history has time and again revealed
Shaped by desires common to all humanity – fundamentally
Whether that be greed or a propensity for logical fallacies
Our impressionable human qualities, abilities and sensibilities
Have made us the most sophisticated of all the species
If human assessment is anything to go by
Yet, to the rest of nature we just might be
The most disruptive force there is or ever was
For all eternity
Sentiment vs Common Sense
Posted: March 18, 2020 Filed under: Writings by one ambidextrous... Leave a commentTo understand cause and effect
One has to research
To occupy land
One has to pay tax
To influence change
One has to earn respect
For it matters not so much the consequence
If one doesn’t understand the intent
Matters little what one’s post code reads
If one’s name is not on the title deed
Matters less what one says
If the message falls on deaf ears
