"Creation in Crisis" 2009. Global Warming.
Quote The Rhymer Man “ Seeing the future is easy – awakening others to change its course however is impossible in this time frame. For mankind has no capacity for facing future reality at all in his obsession to create the illusion for his convenience in the present” TRM.
The Rhymer Man -John Ball Lightning.-TRM.'s Friend Space (Top 40)

It exterminated 85% of all species on Earth in the End-Permian Mass Extinction 251 million years ago, and can do it again, right now. The much milder Cretaceous Crisis was the one that wiped out the dinosaurs.
Global warming is real and unfolding. The deniers are either blind or lying.
Calcutta sounds like a fable in a song, but in reality, it is where John, my colleague and successor, was murdered. He was on the job for only three days when he got his throat slashed. As an undercover investigator targeting the illegal wildlife trade, especially in tiger parts, his real name was unknown, even to me, nor mine to him. We were just John and James to each other. All I know is that he was Chinese American, while his predecessor James - real name Anthony Marr - is Chinese Canadian, and how sincere he was in helping to save the Bengal tiger from being poached out of existence, while its habitat continues to dwindle due to human pressure...
Hello ~ thank you for being a friend of Moonwarriors. 800 dogs & cats are killed every hour in the US, often by inhumane methods such as gassing or heart sticking. This cruel disposal of homeless & stray animals is paid for by your taxes. Sponsors of petitions promoting no-kill alternatives have shown that it would be more cost effective & humane to fund spay-neuter programs, adoption schemes & sanctuaries.
"What is unconscionable, abominable and outrageous is that animals, healthy and well-behaved, are being killed because someone says there are too many. That is something we do not accept. That is something we find intolerable" - Richard Avanzino, President, San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (1997)
Please visit my blog for more info & to sign petitions to end the animal gas chambers:
friend Ron Hogan has a song in his cd "The End of the Open Mind" It's called "The World is Ours to Share." You would love it. I was just listening to it when your message came in. Interesting...
Thanks for the invitation John. I too am a "rhymer". Come by it naturally, I guess you could say. It's my God-given talent. I'll be looking forward to reading some of your work and sharing some of mine in the future. I must say, I love your choice of friends. They're mine too. (wink)
Hi John, Fantastic song "Shame on You". Thanks so much for all you are doing for Bruce, and against the evil of BSL. You have a true way with words. May the Witchfinders sit up and take notice!!
John, good to hear from you again. ...some interesting new tunes since last I was here....certainly original! Hope all is well w/you...take care my friend b
Thank you for the request, i see you are a friend of Maria Daines, i really respect the work she does and will check out your video about Bruce. lol, nan
Thanks! Nice to see you are putting Y and not M these days infront of RC! Otherwise I might just get RC! Tee Hee! Been in the cave writing Eye of the Needle - had a good rant about mammon and false gods... putting it on in April. Now I'm writing FALLEN. Will reveal more later... on with Romeo and Juliet for now... catch you in the desert... send my regards to Lady Harrington. XX
Hello John and our respect for your support and voice!
Welcome to our circle of friends :) and thank you for becoming an advocate for all children.
The helpless must be protected, and those with no voice of their own must be spoken up for. Those who prey on our children rely on SILENCE, and it must not be allowed to continue.
Thank you for adding your voice to ours, together the call will grow louder...AND WE WILL BREAK THE SILENCE.
John! It's been a while for sure. I've been really busy singing, creating, teaching and working with homeless families. It's such a wonderful time in my life and I'm so grateful. Yet I've missed you and some other friends I've made in space. Thank you so much for being my friend and I will try to visit space more often.
