2nd Declaration of Interdependence: Advocate

By J.S. Christian

Declaration of Interdependence: Advocate Poetically! is a poetic compilation of talking points on timely challenging subject matter. It is altogether expressions of Alternate History, Dark Humor and art.
Declarations … Advocate Poetically! can also be viewed as proverbial reflections on topics which may be too difficult to discuss otherwise. It steps around political correctness straight into what "Plotters" and “Insiders" do.
Declarations of Interdependence; Advocate Poetically! is in places set against the dystopian backdrop of a pandemic, election year and the worldwide social justice unrest pertaining thereto. Declarations' voices wax poetic while everyone else shouts. Voices vary toward same goals of Unity and for civility to reign over discord. Fictitious scenarios with public domain photos are woven together to enhance some expressions. None are intended to imply endorsement; just bring art to life. Subjects range from the complexities of political protests to the more light hearted “Chocolate for President”.
Declaration steps into the fray of divisive topics giving proverbial poetic script for dialogue. It states sides - without taking sides. While the poetic voices are fictitious, the subjects may ring true for many in the reading audience. Or not.
A wide range of voices are heard in Declarations; mostly human. The Declarations compilation is divided into six books by topics; Unity, Schools, Mental 'Wealth', Enforcement, Veterans and Love.
Most voices are human. In Book III an obscured tree appreciates ”Quin-tree-esential” acknowledgement while disgruntled “Furniture” join a protest. The people, animals and inanimates excluded were not purposely left out. BLM “Resolution” depiction is not intended as an affront to whomever is their equal and opposite. “Chosen Outfits” in Book IV Enforcement likely agree with voice of "Comply".
Viewpoints dapple in alternate history topics like education injustices and hate crimes in “Carlsbad Decree Lament”. Plights of Native Americans are expressed in “Nothing New for Sioux” . The final Declarations are for love; from the romantic and detailed "Making Love" to "Love 4 Country".
Declaration speaks to an interdependently diverse audience by poetically looking through lenses of both the observer and observed. “Just in Case” and “Swimming Lessons” cry out for educational accountability. While the “Hearty Farmer” simply could care less.
In agreement or not, we are interdependently bound together in the United States of America. Declaration of Interdependence; Advocate Poetically! provides poetic encounters we may not have the opportunity to experience otherwise. Declaration... gives audiences voices of reflective experiences. It offers empathetic insight along its poetic way from Unity to Love. Enjoy!

J.S. Christian

J.S. Christian visionary orations are inspired by former Confederate journalist H.W. Grady's 1868 "New South". His Reconstruction message was one of Unity and progress. Christian chooses to resuscitate themes through literary works as a new voice of the "New South". New voices bring new perspectives some 150 years later. From 1868 post Civil War to 2020 civil unrest, template and ultimate goal of Unity changed little. Viewing similarities differently may inspire thwarting tale 150 years from now. Christian, U. S. Naval Academy English master instructor and military officer; formerly. This Georgia native is a new voice of the "New South". Christian is now a mediator of Pepperdine Law School Straus Institute, Director BRYTT IDEAS Publishing, LLC (Literary Works) and consultant Ivory Scholars, LLC (Click Lit Swimmers ® , ByAnyMemes Necessary® pending). With feet in sand and heart in clay, Christian currently resides with wit and family on the west coast.

PREFACE

image054.jpg

Art with a conflict resolution voice. Declarations...has a wide range of advocacy expressions; mostly human. In Book III an obscured tree appreciates Quin-treessential acknowledgement and disgruntled Furniture join a protest. A Resolution depiction advocates for civility and health. Just Like You Enforcement in Book IV points out we are more headaches and heartaches alike than different.

Creative fictitious depictions dapple in historical topics like education injustices and hate crimes in Carlsbad Decree Lament and plights of Native Americans in Nothing New for Sioux. Enforcement has a voice in Comply and Chosen Outfits.

Declaration looks through lenses of both the observer and observed. Just in Case and Swimming Lessons cry out for educational accountability. The Hearty Farmer simply could care less.

PROETRY

Proetry: poetic protest

outcry language script.

When we say more in fewer words

All better handle it.

Offended ears block messages.

F- bombs impact the kids.

Civility must reign to show what unifying did

Proetry evokes.

It’s not just here to entertain.

Proetry calls to action every faction of the game.

This one calls out a shout to all who wrote in revolutions

Understanding unifying is the only resolution

V.O.T.E

When we...
