Filk, Astrology, and Citygod

Posted by  on 5 September 2010, 8:57 pm

First: The Citygod. It’s rare to find an author who can convey an idea and make you feel it, too. This essay reminds me of Harlan Ellison’s Deathbird Stories, but not as cynical.

Second: The always boring AndR, k.s.c. came up with an idea a while ago. While pondering the merits of this idea, I discovered my sign, thus confirming to me that we need more Discordian filk.

Erisomatic Astrology. The POEE calendar, supplied in the first and holiest of Discordian documents, the Principia Discordia, provides ingredients for an easy way to determine a person’s Discordian “sign.” I suggest you simply add the element for the day of the week you were born on with the season you were born in for a total of 25 possible signs. For example: Orange Confusion, Pungent Discord.

Third: The filk.

The Commodes: Sweet Chaos

Show me a Goddess that’s crazy
Show me a clergy so high
I’ll show you chaos that’ll last forever
Flying high so high

Show me a place where thoughts are the thinkers
And all the fnords you see eating you yeah
I’d wish the fnord ate all hateful people
Then there’d be no more illuminating to do

Oh sweet chaos
Oh sweet chaos
Oh whoo sweet sweet chaos

They immanentized the eschaton
High on a hill
Take a ride on the machine mindtrap
And you’ll know nothing is for real

The world is filled with all the cabbage people
Trying to find their way
All they need is a hand to guide them
To a brighter day

Oh sweet chaos
Oh sweet chaos
Oh whoo sweet sweet chaos

Sweet chaos that comes through the ages
Reach out and touch my soul
Give my life no more meaning
And everyone a heart of fnord

Oh sweet chaos
Oh sweet chaos
Oh whoo Sweet sweet choas
You need it: chaos
Oh sweet chaos

I know your searching
I know your searching
For a little chaos
A little order and illumination
And I know it’s been hard
Trying to find your way
But you got to keep on searching
Harder day by day
‘Cause I want you
And you, and you you you you and you and you and you and you
To stand on up, yes ma’am
Put a little chaos in your heart
A little heart in your chaos
Together we can see the fnords
Listen to me
Don’t dogma too hard
On what She’s trying to say
‘Cause this chaos
Chaos is the only way
Nothing but Eris

Oh sweet chaos
Oh sweet chaos
Oh whoo Sweet sweet choas

When you’re down and out
And you can’t see a way
And you need a fnord
Well now just call on Eris

Discordian Emily Sander aka Zoey Zane Murder Conviction

Emily Sander

Emily Sander aka Zoey Zane, Discordian friend and proposed Discordian Saint.

Israel Mireles was convicted of the murder, rape and aggravated criminal sodomy of 18-year-old Emily Sander. For those who don’t know, the Kansas Sander’s case got national attention because she posed naked online as Zoey Zane. She was called a “porn star” and “pornography model,” but she wasn’t the first and in my opinion wasn’t the second (not that I’d mind if she was). More importantly to us, she was friends with Discordian Perlie the Pony Girl, and had a Discordian tattoo.

Mireles had fled to Mexico, and was found there. But because Mexico, like most of the civilized world, doesn’t allow executions, the United States had to promise not to kill him.  Emily’s friend Perlie said, ”I’m glad they aren’t going to kill him. I don’t believe in that and Emily didn’t either. She was such a wonderful girl. I hope people remember her that way.”

Emily aka Zoey has been nominated as a Discordian Saint.

As for Mireles, he faces almost certain lifetime imprisonment, and will be sentenced 31 March 2010.

Perlie’s tribute to Emily is at http://discordia.loveshade.org/xtra/emily.html an and we’d love Discordians responses (Perlie the Pony Girl would especially) at our blog at http://loveshade.org/blog/2010/02/israel_mireles_found_guilty_of.html
