Rogue's Paradise

Rogue's Paradise
In commemoration of the 2017 BC provincial election.

Where did the songs that make money all go?
Why aren't they still on the rock radio?
Just ask the ones who you think look so nice
As they stir up more hatred in this rogue's paradise

What has become of the light hearted cheer
Everyone thought was so clever from here?
Does it still fetch an installer's steep price
To steal love from a poet in this rogue's paradise?

I laughed with Jesus as much as I could
They laugh with monsters who think they are good
I warn of threats to the weak and the poor
They think to trample them offers the cure

Why do they need to consume all my stuff?
Isn't false love from the TV enough?
Someone once gave me some prudent advice
He said, 'get the hell out of this rogue's paradise'

Happy Easter 2017

Happy Easter 2017
Long ago the Good Lord risen
Task of hope fulfilled complete
Made the world by sins forgiven
Fit for angels here to meet

They may sing songs to the little
Taking smiles as their pay
Their expense presents no riddle
Pleasing others is their way

To the hungry and the broken
By compassion are they drawn
Filling plates with love unspoken
Urging me to struggle on

So the lost need not be fearful
Edging closer to the grave
For receptive to the faithful
Hands must wait to catch and save

God bless those sweet nuns and their attractive young helpers at the Door is Open where I enjoyed an Easter feast yesterday. And God bless their good sponsors. If you liked the theme of this poem, please visit Coats from the Lost and Found.

The Best Advertising

The Best Advertising
Back in January when those elementary school girls were taunting me in unison with sex grunts as the city prepared for an exciting Blue Rodeo concert made out of my music, I heard a beautiful song playing from the radio of a passing vehicle and wondered who wrote it. Was that Blue Rodeo's 'new hit'? Did it help them fill all the seats in the Queen Elizabeth Theatre? Is it still on the radio now?

I heard that they still had some music 'stashed away' around that time. They think that if I can't consciously recall a song I wrote in the past, it's acceptable to tell everyone that they wrote it. Since the media, apparently out of personal spite, do not want to do their jobs of presenting music fraud as a destructive and ultimately costly crime, let me do it for them. If you go to jail for committing fraud with my music, it has little or nothing to do with me and everything to do with you. It doesn't matter if I can't recall the song you stole, it only matters that you did not write it. You will be unable to prove your ownership to the satisfaction of the authorities and you will be punished severely for it. What happens to the song after that? Well, unless the business wants to return my property to me or unless I inadvertently rewrite it, no one gets to use it.

And it was a beautiful song. Yes, I think I write the beautiful hits. The business doesn't care if a song is beautiful, though, they only care if it's a hit. For instance, I recall how I used to enjoy the Billboard Top Ten on the AM radio dial as a teen back in '79. Some of the hits on that list were beautiful, such as the Boomtown Rats' I Don't Like Mondays or Nick Lowe's Cruel to Be Kind. That was such a magical time for me, just coming of age. And then I'd wait with baited breath to hear which song would be number one and it was always Joe Dolce's Shut Upya Face. It was the biggest hit on the radio that year but its beauty was considerably less than musical. And I would groan and say 'when is this song going to go away?' Songs like that must be what the pop station is referring to when they boast of being the number one hit station: the obnoxious hits. I try not to write hits like that.

The worst I might come up with would be a tune like Loose with its filler lyrics, which sound like they might have been inspired by a shopping trip to the hardware store. I tried with that one but I fell short of my goal. Incidentally, did I hear about someone stealing that song last night? A woman? Maybe she wants us all to pretend it's still 2010 when I was so clued out about all the crime these stars committed with my work. My newer works are more informed.

Who do you think is paying for this advertising blitz to make us listen to radio stations and to watch CBC? Did you pay for it by buying a ticket to see Nickleback with Fool's Paradise or Blue Rodeo with Mischief or the Crystalids with Size or Beyonce with Under My Umbrella or Seal with Bad News, etc, etc? Did I pay for it out of the millions of dollars of royalties owed to me by these broadcasters which they now refuse to pay me? Or did one or more of the wealthiest stars who stole my music fork out money for advertising in exchange for being allowed to stay on the radio after their crime? And why do they need to advertise? Is it because they can't reach you as easily with their mind control device at home or in your car anymore so that they have to come after you in the street and shove a sign in your face? Why didn't I see all this advertising around me when my songs were on the radio? I guess it's because no one needed to be forced to listen to my songs. I guess that people listen to the radio for the music more than anything else. If the radio has songs they like, they freely choose to tune them in. And when the radio loses those songs, it loses listeners. That forces the stations to spend on advertising. So music fraud is costly on this basis. Sound reasonable?

The best advertising for a radio station, then, is quite simply a popular playlist. Maybe one day the broadcasters will let me restore their profits by passing my music to them through a legitimate agent. Until then they seem determined to oppose my success.

Ignorance Is This

Ignorance Is This
I guess these bands that rip me off and lie about me want me to cover over my music posts here with daily defenses of my image and reputation. So, yes, he is a liar. And he tells the kind of lies that can get him incarcerated.

I doubt I will ever understand this world. Two thousand years ago a man came along and made everyone feel good and they pinned him to a cross in front of his mother for it. Here we are in the present and I come along and make people feel good on the web and the media crucifies me for it.

I'm not equating myself with the Lord, I'm just saying that it seems like we never learn anything here.

Do I Exist?

Do I Exist?
I have my earplugs in tight and I'm leaving them in until I can find a more peaceful place to live. My room is noisy and when I put in my earplugs I end up listening to a train of voices in my head that tell me things like 'he erased your face!' Who is he? Why did he erase my face? Is he allowed to mar my music videos like that? You see, I can't search the web very well from here since I have no views or comments on my pages to work with. That's why I'm asking you about it. And I was thinking of how a song post of mine might gather several comments from appreciative women outside my region but the only comment that is visible to me would be from an old work mate or band mate. Then when I answer the comment, assholes might say I'm ignoring the women in favor of men and falsely accuse me of being gay. Did that happen?

For a guy whose work sent so many superstars to jail and prison, big stars like Madonna, for instance, I get the sense that I don't exist here. How much money did those stars pay to achieve this effect? I swear they've turned every square foot of my living space into Hell on Earth for me when I'm innocent. All this time I have to struggle against them when I should be on a stage with my popular music. I hope it sends their rotten business to the poor house.

I am dissatisfied with how the justice is being handled around my copyrights. The business gets to punish stars for violating contracts and YouTube gets to punish people who violate their terms with my work but I don't get to punish anyone when I'm the principle victim of the crime. But does the music label like the way the media makes everyone think their contracts are bullshit? Because when they fail to point out the gravity of that contract clause about ownership, it opens the door for every cocksucker on the planet to rip me off and sign a contract for my work. Does the business want that?

When I walk down Pender Street I sometimes find myself yelling out that I don't exist. It's like I don't exist because I'm not on TV. That's how I'm being treated. I guess that's what the TV thinks of you, too.

I'm looking forward to making a video series about stores that love stars more than customers, like Safeway, No Frills, London Drugs, and TnT. I was a regular Safeway shopper for all my years on Commercial Drive but whenever I go in there now, they insult me with Madonna music deliberately. They care about Madonna more than they care about me. The last time I was in No Frills, they played Madonna followed by Coldplay. That was no coincidence. Here are the grocers who tell you to fuck advertising and they're taking sides with a glamorous star against her plain victim. It shows you how full of shit they are. They probably lower their prices in some far more dishonest way than merely skimping on package design and plastic bags. The last time I was in London Drugs for earplugs it wasn't in time to spare my ears from the assault of Rolling Stones music. Did Mick Jagger shop in their store for twenty years and tell everyone what great deals they offered? No, but they still love him more than their customer. And I just know that if I stood outside the TnT with my video camera and said that I was about to have to be insulted while I gave my money to these jerks, I guarantee you it would happen within five seconds of entering their store. Maybe someone should blast it off the face of the earth.

How's Blue Rodeo? They suck without my music, don't they? They're just another Crystalids that stayed on the radio and that the broadcasters wanted to make fools out of us with. Oh, I won't hold my breath waiting for any gratitude. Did my music give you pleasure coming from them for the last ten years on the radio? I won't hold my breath waiting for any gratitude for my songwriting efforts.

CBC Can't Face Reality

CBC Can't Face Reality
I saw a CBC promotion on a bus stop last week for a show about Canada being anything we want. Anything? Okay, I want Canada to be a place where I can play my own songs in my own country. And I want Canada to be a place where I can put my own name on my own poems and comedy scripts without having to suffer through ten years of fraud provoked public hate.

Did my music fans want me to get up on a stage and play? What stage did they have in mind for me? The Queen Elizabeth Theatre? I'd gladly take a gig at the Queen E. I'm sure I could make a decent profit filling that many seats. But I gather that the CBC has reserved the Queen E. for any star and every star who has stolen my songs and/or blogs which you will find on the list in my Copyright Issues page. And does the radio still play Mischief without me singing it? What about It Makes Me Wonder? What about Small Miracles? I wouldn't know because I don't listen to brain damaging fraud, but I know that Blue Rodeo disappointed their crowd by not playing the songs everyone liked when they played their concert: the songs they stole from my 2007 YouTube account.

Does the rock radio play anything that came out after the year 2000 or has that seventeen year period been largely filled by songs stolen out of my YouTube account by bands like Nickleback, Blue Rodeo, the Crystalids, the Shards, Oasis, Coldplay and AC/DC? I'm only judging by what I hear whenever I'm forced to listen because I'm not at home.

We still have Anne of Green Gables though. That came out around World War One before the advent of broadcasting. And we still have In Flanders Fields because that came out in World War One before a creep like Tom Hanks could come along and steal it for his war movie. If Canada was anything I want, we'd also be able to lay claim to my thousands of scripts and hundreds of poems and songs. But Canada isn't anything I want, it's anything that rich corrupt Americans want when they pour their billions into a fraud scheme made out of my copyright protected material. And if I must face this reality as the victim of such a scheme, why can't CBC?

Defending My Honour Again

Defending My Honour Again
I'm not sure about this year being a bumper year for songwriting anymore since I've lost interest in my songwriting for the time being. The Blue Rodeo concert has had a very negative impact on me, their fraud victim. First of all, I did not like hearing about their pen. Ten years ago the Crystalids pulled the same stunt and gouged a ten year hole into my life with it. And why were those girls in the primary school running up to the fence to taunt me with sex grunts in January when Blue Rodeo was coming to town? My guess is that the band assassinated my character behind my back with yet another false accusation of a sex offense against children to clear the way for their album fraud with my music now that ten years have passed since the Crystalids did the same thing to me to clear the way for their own music fraud with three hours of my songs. And where was I headed when the girls sprang out to taunt me from behind the fence? I was on my way to meet a lawyer who wants me to think that Saturday Night Live, a show that plagiarized thousands of lines of my rhyming verses, was only parodying me. So let me answer his question here in front of the whole world by asking him a question: why don't you ask my neighbors from my old apartment building who wanted to push me off my balcony because they thought I was stealing from the TV if they think that Saturday Night Live was only parodying me?

I've brought my camera with me today to take a shot of myself posting this blog and showing the date on my library computer. I need to constantly show people that I'm not in jail because these lying stars on TV lie and tell them I'm in jail every second week when I've never been arrested or incarcerated my whole life. I'll try to include a video shot for each post I make from the library from now on if it helps to support the claims I make against evil predators who the TV has everyone mistaking for sweethearts who believe in 'small miracles' while they use their stolen fame to tell schoolchildren lies about my poetry, music, cartoons, comedy and my sexuality. Just give me some time to compile them at home.

Sitting here today and counting up the thousands of violations of my music and writing from the last ten years, I can't help but be a little frustrated over not being able to get a lawyer here. Even in 2007 I apparently had to travel all the way to Ottawa to find a lawyer as the TV helped itself to my blogs while they were still online. Why didn't these lawyers see the money making opportunity of taking my righteous side against wealthy stars and corporations? I guess they looked at how the stars and broadcasters were all pile driving onto me and simply figured I would be crushed by it and just thought they should let it all happen. I guess they didn't have any moral problem with accepting such a miserable crime of fraud made out of beautiful songs and poems for children and messages of hope for people of faith. Maybe they even liked the fraud. Or maybe someone came along from among the wealthy stars and wealthy corporations who wanted to slaughter me and made it more profitable for them to show me the door when I came running to them, begging for help. Anyway, it does not speak very highly of the state of intellectual property law in this country. I wonder if the prime minister has noticed how much harm has been caused by this dismissive attitude about a Canadian artist's copyright security. I hope so. Maybe the RCMP can investigate this incident.

Speaking of crime, I think it is extremely unfair to honest people on fixed incomes to place them in an environment where they may be unfairly associated with misfits and criminals. Of course, we can't have our miracle narcotics economy without a slum like Main and Hastings to pay for it, eh? Too bad it ends up costing me all my songs and blogs when they point to me in a soup line and try to present it to the world as some sort of proof of my criminality, especially when I do not even use narcotics myself.

There are still a lot of local scenes I want to shoot before I leave to find a lawyer and a gig. I need to go out to Commercial Drive for my next documentary and show you my old apartment building on East 8th Avenue. We can talk about that. And then I can show you the building where my artist friend met his untimely demise and we can talk about that. I can show you the venue where I played a couple songs in 2000 which was attended by several Georgia Straight staff, as well as a WEA talent scout. Maybe I'll show you the places where I spent years working full-time here like the glass shop and the recycling plant. And we can walk by the college where I received my diploma in web design in 2000 and I still had high hopes for my future. Maybe we can go into my other deceased friend's yard and show you how someone would be able to eaves drop from there and hear me telling my friend that I only had one copy of my songs on this cassette and that he must not give it to anyone or sell it to anyone - about five minutes before he sold it to a stranger who showed up after I left. I should also show you the bridge I almost jumped off of in 2012 while everyone was calling me Jon Stewart and Dateline was pretending to be my heroes by showing people women I've never met who say they are my groupies and that they are not attracted to me. You can see how I would have ended up in pieces on the ground while Dateline would have become even bigger stars with all the power they got from having my evidence.

What I Know about Blue Rodeo

What I Heard about Blue Rodeo
I've been regularly asking about Blue Rodeo since January's end and I haven't heard a single thing from anyone about them. Is the radio still playing the songs Blue Rodeo stole from my 2007 YouTube account? They better not be. Let me tell you why.

When Blue Rodeo showed up in town to play their concert at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre they were confronted by men who I gather belong to 'contract enforcement'. You see, as much as the business may hate me, it hates people who bullshit on contracts even more. These enforcers 'fried' Blue Rodeo's pen. Blue Rodeo must have said they had a pen they they signed my private parts with - just like the Crystalids said they had. And then these men asked Blue Rodeo to prove their ownership of my music and Blue Rodeo was unable to do it. And if any more of my songs are heard by them on the radio after this, these enforcers are going to show up at the radio station and show the radio staff firsthand what happened to Blue Rodeo when the band couldn't prove their ownership of my songs.

I'm in the library building across from the CBC right now and I had to endure more radio billboards to get here. Maybe broadcasters wouldn't need to advertise so aggressively, practically dragging us all in front of our sets against our will, if they didn't commit so much foul fraud with beautiful works of music and comedy. Or maybe a lot of people refuse to trust them again until they admit their fault in such a glaring crime as their ten-year-long fraud with my work. Viewers and listeners probably don't like having their intelligence repeatedly insulted by lie after lie either.

You'll notice that my claims have stayed consistent from the beginning. I don't need to change my story. For instance, Blue Rodeo stole several of my 2007 acoustic rock songs. That's all I ever said about them. And how many times has their story changed about me since I first brought this topic up in my last Blogger account? The broadcasters change their stories a lot too. They wouldn't need to do that if they told the truth to start with.

Ill Fortune

Right Side Up
How many horribly destructive lies about my life and whereabouts of the last five years did I contradict with this video account of my activities posted on YouTube last Thursday (March 23, 2017)? I can fit that camera into the palm of my hand. I'm sure it will prove as handy as its name.



Who's playing at the Fortune Sound Club? I passed the queue on the way to buy my new video recorder. Should I bring it around to make a video outside the club later? What kind of exciting music are they going to play? Are they friends of Blue Rodeo? Did Blue Rodeo have to go to jail and suck off farm animals for violating their contracts?

You all heard of the Fortune Sound Club, right? That's where I just said that blond Nazi prick stole my songs in 2014. And now there's a big happy concert there. And it sounds like they're telling people that Blue Rodeo ripped them off! What a disgusting crime scene. What a hostile environment for an artist. I'm glad I can take this new camera out on the road with me.

Right Side Up

Right Side Up


It's up to me to give you my side of this story of rich stars swooping down on me and taking all my songs and blogs because the media doesn't show both sides of the story. Even when the media appears to be championing my side, as they did in 2011 and 2012, they are not doing it. For instance, who's 'with them'? I don't even know them. They have you thinking I 'm working somewhere I stopped working in 2009. And who's my groupie? Did I sign a contract? I have no conscious memory of signing a contract so how could I have groupies? But there they are, showing you my groupies who appear to be rejecting me. Where was I through all of this? Oh, probably standing outside the drop-in center, waiting for a free soup and a salad. So here's more of the victim's side of a terrible crime that I'm stuck telling you myself because the media just wants you to know the culprit's side of it.

They're Evil

Editor's Note
Well, I'm a little depressed because something I was trying to do for a laugh is turning into a really difficult struggle for me right now. I have a lot of good ideas, but since I have no help, it's not much fun for me to do so much work by myself, especially when everyone else takes the money and credit for my effort and my creative talent.

I was thinking about how I sat across from a bunch of lawyers in Vancouver in 2007, shortly after I erased my Blogger account to stop the constant fraud that politicians were tolerating, and they told me to go home and that they couldn't help me. And now they tell me that I have waited too long to be able to take legal action over my copyright. I also posted a string of 'Attention Police' notices in my account through the whole year of 2007 and the police couldn't help me. No one helped me to make a decent video but I'm sure everyone but me would still enjoy the videos made out of my music for the bands that stole my music. That's because the people with all the money only ever supported fraud with my work all these years. And now people don't just refuse me help, they interfere with me.

I like how these fools who can't do anything other than lie about me when I speak the truth about their crimes in public want you to think that they're 'letting me' tell you about their prosecutions and incarcerations. Stars are very image conscious and a lot of people read my blogs so they would absolutely not tolerate anyone lying about them going to jail if it weren't true; they would make the liar erase his accusations and probably send him to jail. But when such accusations are true, the only thing that the stars and their broadcasting supporters can do about it is to tell more really stupid pathetic lies that insult our intelligence.

I saw the billboard for the modern rock station. Don't you mean the fraud station? Was I a jerk for saying they're evil? How about turning a song with the word 'heaven' in the title into music fraud and poisoning millions of hearts with it through the radio and TV? Is that not evil? And that's just one song off a cassette of three hours of three minute songs that were all turned into music fraud and broadacst on the modern rock station. That's a lot of evil.

Do you think my Orbit is modern rock? I think so. It's very progressive. But if you want modern rock to last, you better tell the modern rock station to stop driving artists to suicide with their evil crimes.

Tinsel Heaven

Tinsel Heaven
Invitation from out of the blue
Waves conform to a curvy procession
Opportunities too good to be true
Hope to make at least a decent impression

You might have made a softer landing
Upon my whole domain

Young and pretty like the girl of my dreams
Disinclined to stay with principles on track
Machination all the fun that it seems
On an avenue to imminent contact

The stars above have more to offer
Glittering prizes to grandly proffer
But we can still be one
At least until the morning sun
And wander on with a memory fond
Of an ultimate pairing

Thrifty limits keep the pedestal low
Standards drag upon the most up-and-coming
Faraway from the festival glow
Grandiosity may first appear stunning

In tinsel heaven they would adore you
They'd roll the carpet right out for you
But we can still unite
At least until the time is right
To take our flame to the great beyond

Moving Performance

Moving Performance


The above shows the direction I would like to take with my music videos for my newer songs. Video footage of a performance is more interesting to look at than a photograph. This approach will let me make loud music videos without getting too loud in my room. I don't have an amp anymore anyway right now.

Now I just need the topless dancers. If any young women on the street are looking for a job to help them come clean...

Editor's Notes

Editor's Note


February 23, 2017: 5:00pm: Completed last round of editing changes and I am satisfied with how my account looks at this date. It's only normal, I think, for a person to write a certain percentage of bad content and I just clip it all out at once after a couple years of letting it accumulate. Last time I edited my blogs was in late 2012, so this account was due for a cleanup. I've also erased my copyright notices at the top of every blog because they do not suit the average reader. As for litigation, I am not receiving the support I expected for that at the moment, even having supplied ample evidence to support my claims over the years. Anyway, I do not want to get sucked into a vortex by all the fraud committed with my music and comedy in the past. I will simply keep posting portions of my new content as it generates, perhaps at the rate of a few songs and cartoons or poems every few weeks. I've opened a new blog for comedy scripts at this link: We're All Dying. And I'll reserve some of my work for myself if my online work gets attacked again.

February 19, 2017: 5:00pm: Just finished editing all my blogs from 2014 and 2015. You can check them and see that they are indeed safe for family viewing. I didn't delete anything good, but I need to leave this account in a form that I can live with. I don't need a bunch of bitter complaints about my life cluttering up my account and taking attention away from my good posts. And those defensive statements against people in my vicinity were effective in their time but they always end up holding me back. I'll keep working on this until everything is cleaned up back to 2013. I don't need to worry about anything beyond there.

February 18, 2017: 9:00-11:38am: Completed my first round of edits on my Leftovers blog which covers over six months of 2015. It only took about a day yesterday to get through the whole blog. You may check it to see the transformation. On top of removing unpleasant entries, I want to isolate my copyright information as much as possible in my relatively new 'copyright issues' page and away from my other content.


February 17, 2017:

I need to clean up my blogs again. I'll be editing for the next week or so, so don't be too shocked if a page goes missing here and there over the next couple months. It's probably something you didn't want to read.

Oblivious

Oblivious
It's getting harder to
Hold onto this depression
With everything I want
To launch me to a strange new height

You rival the sunrise
You puzzle the mind
Keep the meter spinning
Into a different beginning

It's such a bother to
Sustain a tragic vision
The apparitions all
Evaporating in the light

You make it a party
Wherever you are
With a bent for adventure
I would not endeavour to measure

Even the best initial success
Could turn to a heavy fall
Taking my chances
Would not expect a plot to detect
Or stranger to pay a call
Fully oblivious
Cruising along

I will not struggle to
Catch onto this condition
Let apprehensions
Keep me up all hours of the night

Progress in question
You in the lead
On the understanding
The trip won't get too demanding
Lost as beforehand
But not as alone
If it stays unshaken
A gainful way has been taken

Motion Cautionary

Motion Cautionary
It's up to someone to make sure you have a chance
To see what first eluded your attention
The length that some will go to beat the circumstance
Deserves some minimal mention

More rewarding to turn my head
Seeking out an exemption
Leave the warning signs unread
Without comprehension

I won't be neutral on a revelation known
Directly shown to one astonished witness
And though depending on experience alone
It's only minding my business

Up against a frigid mass
Bleak the ordinary
Hoping that the loss will pass
For the customary
Out of nowhere in the dawn
Failing to stand wary
To the edges by love drawn
Motion cautionary

You - know - what - I - dearly - want
Good enough as a shameless ploy

They will be humbled who may want to have their way
A sorry fate awaiting the contender
Whose invitations to the see-through power play
Will be returned to their sender

Other senses preoccupied
Fragrance of a cherry
Tales to capture, truth to hide
Woes to make us merry
Dreamy greetings from faraway
Promise sanctuary
Aiming to believers sway
All involuntary

Mischief

Mischief
It is also optional to end the intro with the phrase 'you better watch yourself!'

Fascinated by all a good look would reveal
Left to linger, likely to fall for surface's appeal
Can't keep fighting such an inviting
Trouble in disguise
Later on blame it on the mischief in her eyes

Must be nice to devote so much time to a game
But outside her gratified zone the rules are not the same
What surprises hide in horizons
Too far off to size
Are soon diminished by the mischief on the rise

It takes me away - to plains of discovery
It teases me to - beyond the recovery

Won't deny the pleasure of her company
Opportunity must be taken as it comes to me

Until I'm finished by the mischief in her eyes
