This is a poem I wrote about a very bad time in my life when I wound up in a Guerilla Warrior camp, in Nicaragua, drug there and temporarily held hostage by the Guerillas of FUAC (Frente Unido Andres Castro).

Fue un sendero
There was a path
Un sendero luminoso
A shining path
Un Sendero sin huellas
A path without footprints
Sin huellas
Without footprints
A la excepcíon de los huellas
Except for the footprints
De los Guerrilleros
Of the Guerilla Warriors
Guerrilleros fuertemente armados
Guerillas heavily armed
El sendero de la mariposa azúl
The path of the blue butterfly
El sendero de los FUAC (Frente Unido Andres Castro)
The path of FUAC (United Front Andres Castro)
El sendero de los Guerrilleros
The Path of the Guerillas
El sendero, no es lo mío
The path, it is not mine
Pero por un tiempo breve
But for a short time
Allí fue yo en el sendero
There I was in the path
Un sendero luminoso
A shining path
Un sendero sin huellas
A path without footprints
Sin huellas
Without footprints
A la excepcíon de las huellas
Except for the footprints
De los Guerrilleros de FUAC
Of the Guerilla Warriors of FUAC
Guerrilleros fuertemente armados
Guerillas heavily armed
¿Quienes son FUAC?
Who is FUAC
FUAC (Frente Unido Andres Castro)
Son Guerrilleros
They are Guerillas
Gracías a mi gobierno y El CIA por soportándoles y finanzándoles a los Guerrilleros. ¡Y a los americanos Son sus dolares de impuestos trabando por tí!
Thanks to my government and the CIA, for supporting and financing the guerrillas. And to you Americans, these are your tax dollars at work!

Eloquently written. How horrifying it must have been. Glad you’re hear to tell the story.
hear = here (my fingers can’t spell worth a darn)
BTW, thanks for the visit to my blog and your comment. The prospect of surgery on my face is unsettling but since it has to be done, I’m glad that it’s going to be done and very glad that you shared that you’ve had surgery on your face. It is scary, isn’t it?
:( That is very sad.
thanks for the hopped.
Don’t forget it was not just U.S.tax dollars and Iran/Contra slush funds killing people in central America, it was also many little donations from people brainwashed with the right-wing christianity propaganda from the likes of Pat Robertson, 700 club, Jerry Falwell, and that ilk working with CIA front groups and the state department.
Their payback for helping the neocons in the 70’s and 80’s was to be able to corrupt many government agencies in the Bush administration from the pentagon to the department of jusitice. Liberty University law graduates in the department of justice? Please. Monica-fucking-Goodling. Ashcroft is now teaching there? Please. Office of faith-basted iniatives? Please. It’s stealing from tax payers and giving grants and jobs to organizations that already don’t pay any friggin’ taxes.
What John Furie Z stated above is really shocking. But for me, nothing is new, war and religion are two things that makes the businesses in this world survive or die… It is all about commercialization, money and power…what else there can be?
