Our peaceful protest took on a great energy<\/span><\/p>\n today<\/p>\n despite the cold wind and the traffic<\/p>\n we came to have our say<\/p>\n we came to heighten awareness<\/p>\n of the \u00a0violence in Taiji<\/p>\n the turmoil and the ferment<\/p>\n and the roughness that we see<\/p>\n <\/p>\n playing out there daily<\/p>\n in JAPAN its was our quest<\/p>\n to stop the dolphin slaughters<\/p>\n and get this hell redressed<\/p>\n <\/p>\n a lot of people came from far off places<\/p>\n to be there<\/p>\n dont talk of the 8 million<\/p>\n those that are aware<\/p>\n came to help the others<\/p>\n to realize the score<\/p>\n and if you like stand up with us<\/p>\n and protest even more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n the ball of blood flag<\/p>\n evidence that the japanese do to<\/p>\n think of blood when \u00a0hanging<\/p>\n it<\/p>\n as they always do<\/p>\n our constant affirmations<\/p>\n 1500 strong<\/p>\n is telling the great universe<\/p>\n what is going wrong<\/p>\n <\/p>\n incessant were the chants<\/p>\n they continued throughout the day<\/p>\n and this is making headrow<\/p>\n into the psyche and does play<\/p>\n a part now in all of this protest<\/p>\n for the dolphins have a need<\/p>\n to swim in toxic waters<\/p>\n but not to perish and to bleed<\/p>\n <\/p>\n to swim in the blood of their families<\/p>\n this is totally insane<\/p>\n imagine the horror<\/p>\n the vehement disdain<\/p>\n its \u00a0tyrannical, its oppressive<\/p>\n its \u00a0a rampage much too far<\/p>\n and yet its happening in Taiji<\/p>\n an overwhelming scar<\/p>\n <\/p>\n on humanity, its ugly its as vile<\/p>\n an act as we<\/p>\n could ever stoop to conjur<\/p>\n in our \u00a0pits of misery<\/p>\n <\/p>\n its violence for the sake of it<\/p>\n on highly gracious souls<\/p>\n so sentient beyond the human realms<\/p>\n we exact controls<\/p>\n we delve into their \u00a0sonic sphere<\/p>\n and disrupt it with our pipes<\/p>\n complicity \u00a0through simplicity<\/p>\n with complex yet brutal swipes<\/p>\n <\/p>\n then herd them into Taiji<\/p>\n whole families bent on joy<\/p>\n on commitment and on learning<\/p>\n such deviousness we employ<\/p>\n their gallantry is unspoken of<\/p>\n but they are heroic and<\/p>\n the Japanese exploit them<\/p>\n of course thats out of hand<\/p>\n <\/p>\n the destruction of the family<\/p>\n in a maelstrom of \u00a0such pain<\/p>\n to sabotage their feelings<\/p>\n the perdition of our gain<\/p>\n the upheaval is so radical<\/p>\n a cataclysmic \u00a0turn<\/p>\n there is no way back<\/p>\n they must try to save each other<\/p>\n so we learn<\/p>\n <\/p>\n each one is a hero<\/p>\n and each one it will die<\/p>\n murdered by the \u00a0antipathy<\/p>\n and disfavour that does lie<\/p>\n clearly in the hearts of those<\/p>\n whose business is to kill<\/p>\n an aversion for such \u00a0sensitivity<\/p>\n and one that will<\/p>\n <\/p>\n much more true resentment<\/p>\n from the angels in the midst<\/p>\n who feel and see the agony<\/p>\n and who to now resist<\/p>\n <\/p>\n there is a wave of love and care<\/p>\n emanating out<\/p>\n 1500 protesters<\/p>\n know what its about<\/p>\n <\/p>\n they came together<\/p>\n from every walk of life<\/p>\n to be as one<\/p>\n they made the protest happen<\/p>\n with joyfulness and fun<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The police I thought were admirable<\/p>\n courteous as they<\/p>\n plunged into a \u00a0melting pot<\/p>\n but managed it all day<\/p>\n <\/p>\n smiles were ever present<\/p>\n their mood was always kind<\/p>\n and that was because the protest<\/p>\n was the best that you can find<\/p>\n <\/p>\n the message it was evident<\/p>\n and we all picked up on it<\/p>\n the benevolence of sharing<\/p>\n thats where it did sit<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I made a point of telling<\/p>\n the officers that they<\/p>\n came across as genuine<\/p>\n and that too made my day<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n a really good cross section<\/p>\n of the public came to be<\/p>\n and many many brochures<\/p>\n were taken avidly<\/p>\n <\/p>\n the public \u00a0they were positive<\/p>\n for the energy was there<\/p>\n it was positive it was goodly<\/p>\n and given to all to share<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n megaphones were blaring<\/p>\n whistles and horns and drums<\/p>\n voices rang out as to what it was about<\/p>\n though the cold wind yes it numbs<\/p>\n <\/p>\n the feet and got some dancing<\/p>\n increasing the energy<\/p>\n the Japanese can be in no doubt<\/p>\n and truthfully begin to see<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n it was all about commitment<\/p>\n and honouring the cause<\/p>\n we stoodfast in that busy place<\/p>\n and hardly did anyone pause<\/p>\n <\/p>\n a lot of support from the \u00a0vehicles<\/p>\n that happened to pass by<\/p>\n masses of varied hoots \u00a0we heard<\/p>\n floating to the sky<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n the mercilessness of the Taiji \u00a0people<\/p>\n hiding what they do<\/p>\n pithing the creatures under the tarps<\/p>\n changing the cove from blue<\/p>\n <\/p>\n from the aquamarine and the sunlight<\/p>\n into a hell hole of red<\/p>\n victims expecting their slaughter<\/p>\n swimming through blood till their dead<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n there is no emotion to ever imagine<\/p>\n swimming in your lovers blood<\/p>\n the blood of your children<\/p>\n there are no words<\/p>\n being caught up in that flood<\/p>\n <\/p>\n and their limbic minds are much more advanced<\/p>\n than ours, so \u00a0this torture is vast<\/p>\n they are not after biting the fisherman who<\/span><\/p>\n are now in the water trying to screw<\/p>\n <\/p>\n the life out of them<\/p>\n no they do not attack<\/p>\n for within and without<\/p>\n such evil they lack<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n saving each other<\/p>\n not retaliation<\/p>\n peacefulness and joy<\/p>\n their whole creation<\/p>\n <\/p>\n based on community<\/p>\n with human kind<\/p>\n who have proved to be<\/p>\n devils with \u00a0the more spiteful mind<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n divorced from this scenario<\/p>\n the embassy who<\/p>\n stood many pole faced<\/p>\n as dignitaries do<\/p>\n <\/p>\n but even they took photographs<\/p>\n of the crowd<\/p>\n and video’s too<\/p>\n for they were very loud<\/p>\n <\/p>\n where was<\/p>\n the press<\/p>\n the guardian the mail<\/p>\n where was the BBC<\/p>\n how they do fail<\/p>\n this was a great crowd<\/p>\n that went on all day<\/p>\n but the media all of them<\/p>\n scuttled away<\/p>\n <\/p>\n they do not cover dissension<\/p>\n oh no<\/p>\n the truth of the matter<\/p>\n they do not go<\/p>\n where the action \u00a0and energy<\/p>\n paths are so high<\/p>\n where messages \u00a0reach up into the sky<\/p>\n where nothing is contrived<\/p>\n where it comes from the soul<\/p>\n where its isn’t staged managed<\/p>\n and the only goal<\/p>\n is to stop killing dolphins<\/p>\n in far off Japan<\/p>\n all of the media people<\/p>\n they plan<\/p>\n OTHER AGENDAS<\/p>\n to do more with fear<\/p>\n than the great positivity<\/p>\n engendered here<\/p>\n <\/p>\n and Ric O Barry<\/p>\n the great man was there<\/p>\n breathing the great wall<\/p>\n of love and despair<\/p>\n feeling the emotions<\/p>\n sharing the care<\/p>\n soaking it up<\/p>\n yes we all could share<\/p>\n the limitless love<\/p>\n the amazing belief<\/p>\n that Taiji ‘s vile exploits<\/p>\n do create such grief<\/p>\n but where there is energy<\/p>\n that all can feel<\/p>\n there is hope<\/p>\n and that hope<\/p>\n is coming for real<\/p>\n <\/p>\n thanks for the soul on the stilts<\/p>\n what an art<\/p>\n thank you to all of you<\/p>\n straight from my heart<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
