Immortality



Do not stand

By my grave, and weep. 

I am not there,

I do not sleep— I am the thousand winds that blow I am the diamond glints in snow I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle, autumn rain. As you awake with morning's hush, I am the swift, up-flinging rush 

Of quiet birds in circling flight,

I am the day transcending night.

Do not stand By my grave, and cry- I am not there

I did not die.

— Clare Harner, 1934

Charles Manson | Secret and Sacred

 


Salaam

Secret, and the SS secrets and sacred, is a synonymous viewpoint when you look at it from the dead. Everything that was never told and held to the death, and was killed... martyred hearts to hold and held forth to the death that becomes a viewpoint, secret holy ghost.

We the mind think, and are thought- there we are men of truth, righteous brothers' honor and had no way of knowing things and the ways kept from us. We all looked to death row where we thought brothers were being kept. We looked up to the strongest images, to the father. Gods mind in the flesh. Old cowboys, heroes, past wars and even bandits, crooks and revolutionists.

We look for the patriarch soldier as we were told and shown on tv and movies. They died for our rights and all we thought was ‘love and real'. Then the end of acts and stars changed our minds. We saw the covers were not real. The cover is real but like rubber apples- they look good but you can't eat them.

What was kept secret or concealed as we lived our lives in 2 world wars, cover ups-past.

On from the money heads, all the good real and love was murdered right before our eyes. We saw it but we were told and taught and we had no way to find out but to go through it. Our Souls the soul kept calling the eyes of the soul- seen one thing, our souls were going one way and your words and ways were going the other- so we ended up on death row in a war that started before our granddads were born.

The egg broke in 1969. The courtroom I was in, in the 1940's when the USA was calling war a crime and crime became a war my court room became. When the Manson cult went to death row to redeem the brother, we thought was there it was there but in the graves. The secrets and keeping word true Manson was raised up in prison not knowing that the people that kept their word were hung and put to death and that there was only a movie left, and money slaves. I hold the worlds in English and the secrets of the bottom line underworld. SS, death head cult, death, will of revolution and pirate USN George Washington, USA, USSR, China, Japan and Germany and all the good Indians.

Craig Carlisle Hammond 1950 - 2026



Craig lived for a short time at Spahn’s Ranch in 1970, he was arrested for “loitering” during the vigil on the corner of Broadway and Temple in front of the Hall of Justice during Manson‘s trial with a group of others, all having an X carved in their foreheads.

Craig, a true southerner and a former carnival worker, eventually ended up back in North Carolina, where he was from, raising a family, and running a moving company. Decades later he moved back to California, I had been corresponding with Craig for many years after Red gave me his contact information, we worked on many projects together: cleaning up beaches and parks, releasing Manson’s music, helping Manson with his personal affairs and maintaining websites for ATWA.

Craig was a music lover with a good voice who played the guitar well. He also wrote his own songs, playing music every day, he even recorded a CD called “Learn to Fly” for his family and friends.  Charlie wrote us some songs and we recorded them, Craig on guitar and vocals, Afton (Star) on violin and vocals and myself playing tambourine and vocals, the best one was “Riverboat Gamblers and Rodeo Clowns”.


Most of you know of Craig as Gray Wolf, the name that Manson gave him, Charlie originally called him Copperhead, and later Coyote, 

If you would like to hear some conversations between Manson and Craig when he was called Copperhead, you can look for the spoken word CD called a ‘Taste of Freedom’.

Before he moved to California, when he was still living in North Carolina, we put out the Manson CD ‘One Mind’ together, you can listen to this music on YouTube.

I have lots of good memories of Craig and can’t include them all here,  there were also plenty of times when I felt he betrayed me, I can see now that he got in over his head like many people in our circle have done in their lives.  

After Manson‘s passing, Craig moved to Arizona, he leaves behind his sons and family and friends.

Photos are from Craig‘s first return visit to California days after visiting Manson for the first time, he and Afton came to visit when I was living with Country Sue.

Charles Manson | My Father

 



Well my father is Scotch Whiskey. My father is General Mac Arthur, My father is Richard Milhouse Nixon, My father is Irish and Scot. My father is my graveyard. I live in my father for eternity. I have no hates or fears toward any other people. But you can't play games on me and get my pussy by using fear and playing prejudiced. I understand the games of prejudice and fear. I love everything as much as I can. But I'm not out of perspective. I understand the order of all life and I understand that if this planet does not come to one world government with a one world economy with a base reality of ecology for earth, if we don't put earth first, we're not going to have any planet left. Now, any Christian that don't want to live on this earth they should get to heaven's gate as quick as they can. They should find any way off this planet that they can find in their own time because this is the last roundup. The kids are coming back again and they want harmony and they want peace on earth. I want my peace on earth. But not only do I want my peace on earth, I want my trees on earth and I want my animals on earth.

-Charles Manson
