Forty melons and moot point.  H2Omeloncholy, homez, H2Omeloncholia.  Sometimes a moment is beyond melonified.  The question as to whether the right Zimmerman verdict was reached is too complex for a Senatorial vote of yea/nay.

Once again, that very complexity - daresay, dichotomy?  "Wow, betcha by Golly," H2Omeloncholy!

Q: Did the six women of the jury come correct?
A: 
Legally?  Yes.   Ethically?  No.

And this existential quandary, my good peops?  That, there be the crux of this blog's creation.  Can ya dig it?  'Course not.  And kudos to you.  Nuttin' to dig - all too absurd.  Can't eva be down with disconnect.  Does NASA possess the priceless lens to capture the galactic ocean 'twixt constructive jurisprudence and conscious justice?  Such plagues any notion of sense - common - or otherwise.  Has Reason writ its letter of resignation?  Be there a digestible answer?  Our angst - at least - is in earnest.

When in doubt, one turns to da Bard.  Pre-Willy, Greek chorus originated the talking head.  With the exception of, perhaps, four plays, Shakespeare's tendency was to stuff the choral talking head and place it on a platter.  Titus' Lavinia 'hits' A Midsummer Night's 'Bottom' - weaving surreal, tragic post-poetry.  The mouth is full with a yarn most mute.

 ** No mention of nor link to Waiting for Gourd Oh (July/2013)?  Thanks for your astute inquiry  
     as well as this evidence of careful read of prior postings.  However, one's blog intent 
     implores our awakening - now.  "Waiting" is already inferred in allusion to Forty Acres & A 
     Mule.  Just seemed like more than enuf - yet one shout-out to the bent promise that is the 
     abbreviated arc to the full spectrum of citizenship. **

 
a clever as compassionate critique
on the implausibility of
POSTness 
 
Til our next 'post', feast upon produce in season...
