b126 (7.4-1.2025): to choose to choose to choose

to choose to choose to choose
by anna choice
 
to choose to take a side
to choose to have a voice
to choose to sub-divide*
to choose to have no choice
 
to choose to win a war (at five) and watch the fights (at ten)*
to choose to choose to choose (to choose to choose to choose) again
____________________
 
·       once you’ve chosen a side… you’ve chosen to reduce your choice to be open-minded about the outcome.

·       you’ve chosen to sub-mit to those who own both sides… and who encourage your choice to fight – while they laugh – all the way to the bank$$$.

·       whether it’s democrat v. republican, or cowboys v. redskins, or c.n.n. v. fox… somebody (higher-up) owns both sides, and he benefits via divide & conquer.

* my original line was “to choose to come inside.”

* alternate line: “to choose to make-believe or play the game of ‘let’s pretend’” – which refers to the power-in-numbers ploy of getting others to believe your b.s. -- and to playing the game of “let’s pretend” which is akin to living here, on earth, in the Grand Illusion.
