Alea Jacta Est #20

Much has been happening lately, and our many selves needed a little rest. Here below is a piece I wrote on january 2010, just after some blue liaison officers started to get interested in me. It seemed talking to a poet about higher principles gives them a vertigo…! This short piece is pretty much still accurate today…..as short tempered officers appear to dread any reasonable exchange with me…. and scare me with searches and lockup if my questions make him finish his shift too late…. You see my dear reader, there is such a concept as reasonable force, so why not reasonable defence or reasonable questions or remarks…… especially when an officer makes typo on the dates… And all this sudden wonderful entertainment because I am by nature a protector of the Earth, as it makes sense to me to respect the environment I live in, and it is definitely reasonable to stand and act for it. And most importantly, to live by it, as it is in our actions that we can see the true nature of our intentions. I am my nature, nothing will ever justify anyone coming to take it. Furthermore, It is just as much reasonable to kindly call an “idiot” whoever acts as such.

This piece finishes the 2nd serie of the Raven’s tirade. Thank you for following us, the website will be due an update soon for clearer navigation! Continue reading

Earthling Duty Day

Today has this kind of special vibe, you know, when it feels like staying at home and catching up with yourself and your own self work! Writing is an important process, well it is for me, spelling words is in some ways connecting me to the magic side of Life. And it is a ritual, as it brings my visualisations out the world of my thoughts and right into a “ready-to-be-manifested” state, a pre-organised structure of a potential future. Continue reading

#Ameyrica’s ameyndments

So today, and because there has been much happening lately in the streets of Sheffield, most of which by the way I have been banned from walking through weekdays 9 to 5! I indeed have been arrested (/targeted?) on claims that I assaulted 3 twicemesized bouncers who were reasonably twisting my fingers. So now, I cannot exercise my right to peacefully demonstrate and therefore get a lot of inspiration on site.

So here are a few new words we created to express our utmost disagreement with the way Sheffield city council, Amey plc and South Yorkshire Police are interacting with us, the people, the neighbours, the families, the lawful citizens. Continue reading

The Face for the Job

Another Raven Tirade (The #12th official one) illustrating the long fight that residents of Sheffield have to put on to save their beloved street trees, against their own council (long known to be utmost corrupt) and Amey /Acorngroupltd whose various agents in yellow jackets are rather to be described as functions than humans. This tirade is about integrity and standing for our convictions. Continue reading

The Payne Tradition

Inspired from events that happened in Sheffield Uk on the 27th of November 2017.
The bottom line: the council and corporate giant amey hire private security firm (with public money!?)
and use blitzkrieg tactics to serve their own obscure agenda rather than attend the city and its resident’s needs.

Oh Well Orwell. Raven Tirade #10

This animal Farm inspired story is inspired from actual environment politics. Both from Sheffield where the council and corporate giant Amey are trying to remove the city’s green heritage for profits, and from the Peak District where the Tory government under Theresa May intent to turn the National Park and other National heritage parks into un-necessary Fracking sites, whereas most European countries have already placed a ban on this dangerous practice.  Continue reading

Dialogue under the Ol’ Vernon. Raven’s tirade #9

The Vernon Oak is one of Sheffield’s folks favorite Tree. It is a Healthy 150 years old Street Tree in Sheffield, much beloved by neighbouring resident who have so far managed to save him from Amey/SCC’s chopper (Part of a Dodgy 25 years running PFI contract). The locals had to guard him each day on a 9 to 5 basis to prevent him from getting blitzed by the council. Continue reading
