After Show Links & Show Notes Monday

Metaphor Monday Edition

10 April 2017






Metaphor Monday

"The basis of fairy tale is in reality. The basis of reality is fairy tales." 
-- George Baxt and Milton Subotsky 
"City of the Dead"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


It's Metaphor Monday on The After Show. This is the day when we call things what they are. No Similes allowed. Not today.

Many doctors prefer single payer healthcare because they don’t want to be collection agents for the insurance companies; one Chicago cop is accused of framing fifty-one people for murder; and, a Russian cyber operative wanted in connection with the US election sabotage is arrested in Spain.

For The Last Halfwe report that an Oregon bill requiring fossil fuel projects to undergo a ‘climate test,’ has its first legislative hearing today; and, while the Bureau of Land Management pays homage to Big Coal, Big Coal wants Trump to stay in the Paris climate deal so he can sabotage it from the inside.

All that plus, the Connect! Unite! Act! Daily Kos Community Calendar and more, on The After Show with Wink & Justice.

While this America settles in the mould of its vulgarity, heavily thickening to empire, And protest, only a bubble in the molten mass, pops and sighs out, and the mass hardens,

 I sadly smiling remember that the flower fades to make fruit, the fruit rots to make earth. Out of the mother; and through the spring exultances, ripeness and decadence; and home to the mother.

 You making haste haste on decay: not blameworthy; life is good, be it stubbornly long or suddenly A mortal splendor: meteors are not needed less than mountains: shine, perishing republic. 

 But for my children, I would have them keep their distance from the thickening center; corruption Never has been compulsory, when the cities lie at the monster’s feet there are left the mountains. 

 And boys, be in nothing so moderate as in love of man, a clever servant, insufferable master. There is the trap that catches noblest spirits, that caught—they say—God, when he walked on earth. 

 -- Robinson Jeffers 
 "Shine, Perishing Republic"
