Prescript: I'm looking for someone to go 50/50 with me and move to either Ecuador, Costa Rica, Belize, Guatemala, or Mexico where we can make a very low income go much further with a lower cost, and higher standard, of living (than living in the States on such a low income). This includes an only income of Social Security Disability (SSDI) and/or Retirement benefits. The Social Security Administration most definitely DOES allow SSDI and/or Retirement benefits, but not Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits, to be sent to recipients in most other countries! There are many books about moving and living abroad available at the public library and/or at Amazon.com . Naturally, I realize we would probably have to spend some time getting to know eachother, and finding out if we're compatible, before moving abroad together. We could even have our own separate "spaces" by choosing to rent or purchase a house or apartment with separate quarters, and still save considerable money in monthly costs compared to living in the States on the same income. If you might be interested, want to ask me some questions, and/or want to discuss it, please e-mail me at the address below.

TWO KINDS OF WRITERS
Some Thoughts
August 1999
[Copyright © 1999 in the U.S.A. and
Internationally by S. Wolf Britain.

There are basically two kinds of writers
Blind leaders of the blind
Who deceive others'
Into believing in the false
More than the true
And those who guide others'
To what's important
While exposing the untrue
Including all that's unreal or misleading
In favor only of what's wise and genuine
Writers of truth and writers of falsehood
The difference between a dichotomy
As broad as all of the seas put together
Leading others' to be aware of and fulfill
Their duty to stand up for what's right
Versus guiding others' down the wrong path
Of having minds so open that their brains fall out
Along with wisdom, self-sacrifice and hope
Until there's nothing left but self-centeredness
In favor of foolishness and phoniness
What do you choose?
BRILLIANCE
No Subtitle
A Poem
Saturday, January 23rd, 1999
[Copyright © 1999 in the U.S.A. and

What has this world got
That's worth offering my brilliance to?
Answer? Nothing!
The Earth is a very pathetic world
Getting worse and worse every day
The Lord should have destroyed it long ago
Yet I trust His timing
Brilliant?
Were that I wasn't, right?
No title to it!
People don't want to be bothered
With my poor, pathetic so-called verse,
Right?
Who wants to hear my crazy meanderings
And to try to unravel such drivel?
What do I possess that recommends
My ravings
To this stark, raving mad world?
I rant and I rave, and I tell the Truth sometimes
But what's it all for?
Brilliance, right?
WILL THE REAL BROTHERS AND SISTERS
PLEASE STAND UP?
August 20th, 1998
[Copyright © 1998 in the U.S.A. and

Are we ever going to get down to it
Like a group therapy session of two
And break through to why
You feel so uncomfortable when I'm around
Are we ever going to discover
The real reason and get beyond it
And get down to being old, dear Friends?
Alamere Falls beckons us together
With memories so sublime and sweet
And yet false life tears us apart
Making us feel so self-righteous
Allowing Alamere to fade into the past
When such real joys should not fade
And Peace should allow us to be One
Are we ever going to transcend differences
To accept eachother's uniqueness
And individualism without judgment
For no one made us God to pass sentence on
Or to shun our brothers and sisters
Who are just doing their best to survive
And stand up for what's Right and Good
Getting down to being dear, old Friends!
"GET ME'S BUG ME"
Some Fun
June 30th, 1998
[Copyright © 1998 in the U.S.A. and

One night I laid down to sleep
I prayed to God, "Don't let any bugs get me;
And don't let any
Get me's bug me".
One night down to sleep I lay
I prayed to God like a little child,
"Don't let any bugs get me;
And don't let any get me's bug me".
I WONDER AS I WANDER
[Or, As Barbra S. Would Say, 'I Vonder As I Vander'!]
A Bit More Fun in the Form of a Song
[Copyright © 1998 in the U.S.A. and
Internationally by S. Wolf Britain.

The few true human beings on this Earth
Have tried to figure things out
All of their lives
And then their wandering
Was born to search for and discover the Truth
The wondering and trying to figure things out
Came before the wandering
The egg came before the chicken
And then it hatched
Into wandering to wonder some more
There's so much to wonder about out there
But so few who even understand
The need to do so
And the compulsion to wander
To be reborn by discovering what's true
The wondering and trying to figure things out
Came before the wandering
The egg came before the chicken
And then it hatched
Into wandering to wonder some more
There's a deep compulsion to comprehend
Why things are the way they are
In those few souls
And to quest and explore
For truth as for gems that appear to be hidden
The wondering and trying to figure things out
Came before the wandering
The egg came before the chicken
And then it hatched
Into wandering to wonder some more
The world is full of wonder,
Not necessarily all wonderful things
But as a result of the former,
And the birth of genius,
There have to be wandering souls
(-Repeat the chorus if you so desire-)

A STRANGE LAND IN
A STRANGE MAN
A Song
With All Due Respect to Heinlein!
Words by Wolf Britain
[Copyright © 1998 in the U.S.A. and
Internationally by S. Wolf Britain.
All rights are reserved.]
He's both a mystery
And transparent to himself
The older he gets, the stupider he feels
And the younger he sometimes feels,
The less he can perform
Like when he was young
And he goes on feeling
Like he's in heat
Though the excitement
Never feels like it used to
He's a strange man
A stranger in a strange land
A land in a strange man
He's a strange land
A stranger man there never was
A land that no one loves
Strange man that he is
A continent by himself
A country of one
Strange land that he is
An alien dropped off
On the wrong planet
In the twilight zone
Of another dimension
A great big unreality
With little true substance
And very little that's true
In any way at all
The most bizarre of bizarre
A great big disappointment
He's a strange man
A stranger in a strange land
A land in a strange man
He's a strange land
A stranger man there never was
A land that no one loves
Strange man that he is
A continent by himself
A country of one
Strange land that he is
FROM CITY TO COUNTRY
[From San Francisco to Arcata--
From Boy to Man For Good--
Having Put Away Childish Things]
A Poem
[Copyright © 1998 in the U.S.A. and
Internationally by S. Wolf Britain.
All rights are reserved.]
Wanderer of heart and soul that I be
I had to emerge from the great city
To the country when I was but a boy
For the unnaturalness of the irrationality
And the cities atmospheres of total decay
Caused my mind to desire to be free
From all the colossal insensitivity
That is so rampant with no pity
In such large places so un-pretty
And led me to seek and find only
Natural vastness, joy and beauty
From then on to be completely free
Of the very imprisonment of the monstrosity
For the lasting peace of the country
And only expanding vistas of purity
That even still my "restlessness-ity"
Towards that to please and satisfy
Has not been able to truly free
My longing to assuage or pacify
And find final peace from the necessity.
