dear "Fed up", I thank you for finding the time to write to me! I will follow your advice and sign with my own name! That way I may also have a bigger chance to stay anonymous and protect my rights!
Personally, I Believe You would make a great President of the United States! But I also understand that the Country needs as much great Presidents than She needs great Knights, Soldiers, Governors, Police Officers, great Reporters, Intellectuals, Lawyers, Judges, Senators, Writers, Teachers, Citizens, etc etc. Not Teachers of Lessons, Men and Women!
You are "Fed up with Uncle Tom" and I am fed up with the European Arrogance and Ignorance (forget about Iran!). I judge people by two simple questions and the answers They give me: Are you pro America, are you pro Israel? Whether Arabs, French, Blacks, whites or Jews! I can forgive them for their stubborness, but what I don't do is loosing my precious Time listening to them, nor hanging out with them! That's why I have dumped all my past acquaintances, have met and kept few Superior Friends! These are my real Family in the same way that America and the Idea of America have always accompanied me in my Dreams and gave me Hope for a better Future! Wherever I was! Ironically, during my childhood, America was closer to Iran than to Europe! Then it stopped suddenly! And I couldn't find Her nowhere - only thru on and off! (The worst time was in the 90s: the only image of America reaching our borders was CNN - including larry king! -, which Image was even more depressing then than it is now!; MTV Europe; and Hollywood). Or the dummiest American soap opera's, courtesy of the French TV! Even worse, in French!!! I didn't had anything to loose by moving to Iran, one step farther into Blackness! But thank to UBL and his Arrogance, America is back on the International scene, ready to sacrifice again its own Blood (forget about the Money, The US Deficit could be simply deleted in one Stroke!) to save a Bleeding World, all SLAVES in the Hands and Control of Crazies!!!
Yet Legitimized thank to The Institution of the United Nations! Thank God for America being there to police the UN and teach them Human Rights Violations!!!
If the communication between Europe and America was working well, why It took me 1994 to discover Jean-Michel Basquiat! Six years after he passed away!?? Too late for me to meet him! Europe skipped Lou in the same way! Or was it just my own bad Luck??? When he was back in the European news, I was already in Iran! But I found them both, a little bit in Iran, a little bit in Europe! I found them when I found God! Now they are both well and alive for me! I see them in my PAINTINGS, magically! They appear with my Brush strokes, out of my Subconscious, but out of my control!!! so I am after all LUCKY! It didn't happened overnight! It took almost half my Life!!! But there is no End to One's Life! When you can abolish Time and Space! Confident wherever I am, aware, whatever I do, connected, whatever I say!!
"P A R A B O L E L I N K", Jean Michel Basquiat
"Satellite of Love", Lou Reed
Dear fed up, once I will hear your Dog's first name, I will know whether, yes or no, YOU ARE L O U R E E D!!!
