Important Message for All Poets

Poets! Want your poems more widely read? You've heard about prompts, those key words shared in groups to challenge or help inspire a poem. Instead of using innocuous literary words as prompts, use some of the 377 words or terms from U.S. Homeland Security 2011 Analyst’s Desktop Binder that online monitors at the National Operations Center are on the lookout for as they "process" over 20 million "transactions" each year. Here's how it works. Using any one of these words automatically triggers a looksee by the Feds into your email, web, Facebook, twitter, etc. communications. Using multiple words can only increase your views, "hits", and more importantly gets actual government agents instead of robots to read your poems -- thus increasing your audience beyond the usual word nerds you typically get. Don't worry, the list doesn't contain the real words that can get you in trouble, such as:

Anonymous, Zombies, bath salts, animal rights activists, plant fertilizer, energy-1, Ivory Wave, false flag, Red Dove, Blue Silk, Zoom, Bloom, Chemtrails, Cloud Nine, Ocean Snow, Bluffdale, Ponzi, Lunar Wave, Bell Tower, Black Helicopter, DARPA, Captain Crunch, box cutters, Mariner Eccles, Middle Class Wealth Destruction, Kelantanese dinar, Vanilla Sky, Agenda 21, NATO 5, The Logan Act, White Lightning, 5-0, sleemoth, Protocols of the Elders of Zion, Scarface, FEMA death camps, Hurricane Charlie, Bohemian Club, muppets, London Olympics 2012, Stellar Wind, sheeple, Jon Corzine, 1984, HAARP, SMERSH, domestic surveillance drones, gloog, alternative media, mr brownstone, MKUltra, Monsanto, Flame, LulzSec, tax resistance movement, reactor 2, Bilderberg, Mossad, Blackwater, Rfid Chips, Operation Sundevil, Stuxnet, Bank for International Settlements, Cayman Islands, Obama kill list, nuclear trigger, crop duster, Forex, open source, International Monetary Fund, Mormon Mafia, National Guard Geospatial Information Interoperability Exploitation Portable, pedophile rings, bongwater, Bill of Rights, banksters, fiat currency, gunch, kaopectate, freedom

To get you started, here are fifteen words and terms from the list, all of them guaranteed to get the attention of the Federal Government. Use them as prompts to insert into your next poem:

  • Ice 
  • Exercise 
  • Erosion 
  • Cloud 
  • Dock 
  • Pork 
  • Smart 
  • Social media 
  • Wave 
  • Prevention 
  • Snow 
  • Aid 
  • Watch 
  • Power 
  • San Diego 

Isn't that cool? If you want to learn more about the policy, including a complete list of monitored words, go here (and here for the official sanitized version). Meanwhile, let's start the joint rolling with a randomized poem composed exclusively of proscribed words on the list. As always, if something bad happens to me, it's not an accident or suicide. So, what do you say, can we create a task force (oops) of poets to trigger an avalanche (oops), flood (oops), wildfire (oops), earthquake (oops) and go viral (oops)? I think we can!

"The ACLU reports that, every day, the NSA intercepts and stores around 1.7 billion emails, phone calls, text and other electronic communications thanks to laws like FISA. To put it into perspective, they add, 'that’s equivalent to 138 million books, every 24 hours.'"- from Refreshing News
