THE GOVERNMENT: So what do we do now, your Majesty?

KING SPIROS OF PLOMARI: Well first we just drink a glass of Pommery champagne, I suggest.

THE GOVERNMENT: Your plan is obviously already finished.

KING SPIROS: Yes but I have just began.

THE GOVERNMENT: We have understood there is no way we can stop Plomari.

KING SPIROS: Not even I can stop Plomari, I designed the Queendom that way. It was a hit and run situation, one could say. En springnota, as it's called in my language. Why would you want to stop it though? Plomari is the most beautiful thing that has happened to Humanity, ever. It may even in some respects be the only happy thing that has happened to us so far, after our History of wars and troubles. So why would you want to stop it? Are you afraid of losing control? Are you afraid of a little bit of chaos?

THE GOVERNMENT: I don't know how to respond to that.

KING SPIROS: It seems quite clear that you are more confused than I am.

THE GOVERNMENT: I just did not think a King could come and do such a thing as you are doing, as a bolt from the blue, in this time on Earth.

KING SPIROS: Neither did I when I was younger. But I understood my might and beauty after a while.

THE GOVERNMENT: You are like something from a fairytale, yet it is real.

KING SPIROS: I agree fully on that.

QUEEN SISSY COGAN OF PLOMARI: I love Plomari!

KING SPIROS: Dear Government, did you know that my Kingdom was a gift to my wife, a wedding gift to my Queen when we married?

THE GOVERNMENT: I was not aware of that. That's beautiful.

KING SPIROS: But then we decided together to give it to all of Humanity as well, as we love Humanity dearly.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well that is the problem with you, for us, because you have not done anything illegal or wrong, yet your Kingdom is now the largest gathering of people the world has ever seen, and we just do not know if that is a problem or not.

KING SPIROS: Well that is the problem with the people who run the world, or think they run the world, they destroy people's lives, the whole human civilisation is an absolute mess, as you know. Plomari is a solution to this mess, in my eyes. That's why I did it, or am doing it.

(King Spiros pops a bottle of Pommery champagne and serves himself and his wife Queen Butterfly a glass each.)

THE GOVERNMENT: So what is Plomari exactly, in your words?

QUEEN BUTTERFLY OF PLOMARI: Plomari is anything you want it to be. What do you want Plomari to be? Right now I need a Queendom of peace, love and understanding, so that's what it is for me right now. How vast is my Queendom? Well how many peaceful, loving, caring people are there on Earth right now? They are all Plomarians in my book. The name Plomari is just another word for Peace, and for God, and for Mother Nature and Mother Earth. Plomari is just our name for everything good and everything that matters. Including pink Champagne, hihihi, hahaha! Plomari means Love. Plomari means Fun. Plomari means Peace, and Joy, and Bliss, and Flowers, and the Moon and Sun, Plomari is our name for the Earth.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well what I really want to ask, is if your Kingdom of Plomari will be a threat to the Government?

KING SPIROS: Not at all. Plomari is all about peace, and we are honestly not really even interested in the pursuits of the Government. On the contrary, Plomari can be helpful to the Governments of Earth.

QUEEN BUTTERFLY: We Plomarians just like to joke a bit about the people who run the world, because we feel that we all as human species could do so much better, and we could really make the world a better place if we try.

KING SPIROS: The people who run the world have a big responsibillity there to help the world become a better place. You know, here's the thing. Plomari doesn't even exist, but I wish it existed, and I am working on making it happen every breath of my life. Because I believe in a good world, and I believe in the web of Life, and I believe in peace and love and all the goodies and goddies. And Plomari is just my way, as King of the country, to help the world become a better place. Do I believe in a Utopia for all? Maybe not and maybe yes, I don't even know if I believe in that or not, but I do believe in the Earth and Humanity, and I do believe that God's Creation is perfect and we can live in a beautiful world, in harmony. We already do when things are at its best, right? I mean, Plomari is simply what we are when we are at our best, as humans on both an individual level and on a collective level. And well, I am joking, Plomari does exist, but it also doesn't exist, which is really sad. So I am creating it. It didn't exist, but now it does.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well that is great. Peace is of course what we all want.

KING SPIROS: Yes of course. And also let me say, Plomari is many things, it has many levels. One thing I love about it is that it's so happy. Literally happy and joyful, joyous. I love life, I love it so so so much, and I live the most awesome life ever. I want to share that joy with the rest of Humanity. Being happy and in love with life is my rebelling against the darkness and pain and bullshit of the world.

THE GOVERNMENT: Have you ever thought about, what if Plomari isn't even a good idea?

KING SPIROS: Many times. But that's the good thing about it, it only exists as a possibillity in each moment, sort of a bit like Quantum Physics. It's a cloud of possibillity in each given moment. What Plomari stands for is the fact that the way the human world is right now is not what we signed up for. We Plomarians want change, big change, huge change, change on every f**king level. Just like most people on the planet right now, we demand change. Plomari is our way of inspiring change. You can hear the Plomarian impulse in people in every song, every conversation, every piece of art. The Earth is crying for help, and Plomari is our answer to that cry. Is it working? Well it has changed countless lives already, and does so daily. Is Plomari the final solution to everyone's problems? Naturally not, but also yes, at least for some people. Plomari is the zeitgiest condensed into something we can touch, discuss, engage in, experience as real. I hope I am using that word in the right way now, zeitgeist; what I mean is, Humanity as a species is already heading in the direction of Plomari, Plomari is simply our word for the waking collective consiousness that is rising right now. These things are hard for me to deliberately display in words, it's taken me many years even to be able to explain these things, even though it's rather clear in my own heart and mind and soul. But I am trying to show it to you all, what I mean, my idea.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well, King Spiros, and dear Queens of Plomari, you are making too much sense for us to be able do dismiss your ideas as nonsense. Thank you for enlightening us on these issues. We used to think you are just some lunatic artist who has gone too far, or some kind of conspiracy theorist, but now after so many years we must admit that we understand what you are trying to say. For instance, when the band Red Velvet came with their album 'Queendom' a few months back. Are we correct if we say that the album is connected to your Queendom of Plomari?

KING SPIROS: Well I say it is connected, or rather, I say they named their album 'Queendom' because I have been in contact with the band for many years. Am I lying, or am I delusional, is it true or not? Well that is up for everyone on their own to decide. But really, you might notice, it doesn't matter either, because their album, with hundreds of millions of listeners, brings the Plomarian idea and ideals to half the f**king population on the planet. Listen to the lyrics of the songs and see for yourself. And they bring the Plomarian idea to Humanity whether they know about Plomari or not, see what I mean? In fact, this brings us to a really cool part of all this, which is the Seamlessness of what I call the Mushroom Seamstress. By the way, why is it so strange that I could be in contact with a famous band like Red Velvet? I am just as famous as them, just in another way. I am friends with many famous people. I feel kind of insulted these days when people I talk with don't understand that I am world famous. Just because you have never heard about me before doesn't take away my millions and millions of fans. My fans, yes, whom I call The Royal Cogan Family of Plomari.

THE GOVERNMENT: You are definitely making sense in all of this. It kind of makes perfect sense when you say it the way you are saying it.

KING SPIROS: Thank you. I have been trying to show you for 22 years. I am glad we finally understand each other now.

THE GOVERNMENT: And we thank you for not being fully evil, as you said in your own words. Hahaha!

KING SPIROS: I joke a lot. I don't have a lot of evil in me. I am a kind person, at least I try my best to be kind. I'm just very powerful. As I said I know my might and splendor. And now for a song break and some more Pommery champagne!

THE GOVERNMENT: So you established the Queendom of Plomari as a wedding gift to your wife the Queen, and then you both gave the entire Queendom to all of Humanity?

KING SPIROS: Yes. Everyone who wants is welcome to join us. We don't do force here, we don't force people to join us, that would be sick and stupid. If they don't like Plomari we're not gonna force them to like it.

THE GOVERNMENT: It is an incredibly complex plan you have worked out here, King Spiros.

KING SPIROS: Yes it is.

THE QUEEN OF THE ANIMALS OF PLOMARI: Plomari's goal is to change the entire way of living on Earth for the better of everyone. Everyone deserves the best always. And if we're not giving them the best always then we're not doing good enough yet.

THE GOVERNMENT: I see. That is an amazing vision.

KING SPIROS: Yes, dear Governments of Earth, that is an amazing vision, so you can take your outdated visions of how the world should be, and shove them up my gay ass. I don't wanna snap and be angry but I'm f**king pissed off. Why, dear Governments, are YOU not mad at the state of the world? And if you are mad at the state of the world, why aren't you doing something about it? You are the one claiming to own and run the human world. Trick question. Look, sorry for being angry, but this stuff is important. Enough is enough, we Plomarians want to help the world become a better place.

THE GOVERNMENT: Dear King Spiros, I would say it is okay to be angry at the state of the world, you do not always have to excuse yourself. We understand. Thank you for being honest.

KING SPIROS: Look, I just want to live in a good world. It's that simple. There's gotta be better ways to live on Earth than the way we are currently living as a species. I refuse to believe that the way things are is the best we can do as Humanity. Let's get on with the show. People think I am crazy; they have no clue how crazy I really am. People laugh at me and say I am stupid, they say they hate me; I promise I hate them more, I have written 15 books about how much I hate humanity. But I love Humanity too, yes it's a paradox, and I contradict myself. I don't hate humanity, I love humanity, but I don't always love humanity's behaviour. There's a difference there. A lot of people are f**king stupid. And I don't have time for stupidity right now. What, you want me to choose my words carefully? You want me to tone down a bit? Shut up for a while. I am talking about the survival of our species and the Earth. Yes, into forever. The way we are living right now is absolutely retarded. Anyone with a brain large like mine, a brain larger than twenty blue whales, and a good heart, everyone knows that the human world is absolutely retarded. Why are you boys and girls so surprised at me standing up and doing what I do? As if you haven't been begging for change for about 10 thousand years. All of you. All around the world. Well then what is the f**king problem then and here I am with an idea. What, you want me to write it on your fucking ass? My idea is an idea on how to make the world a better place, maybe even a totally flipping awesome place. And your first reaction towards me and my idea is hate and shit? That's so typically the humans. F*ck that.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well your idea, or your ideas, plural, are just so far out and strange that they just might work, if you ask me. That's the strange thing about you and Plomari.

KING SPIROS: You asked me if I believe in a Utopia for all. I know I am a dreamer, but I kind of do believe in that. It worked in Blazing Saddles... sorry that was an insider film reference, but anyway. What I mean is that, have you ever sat down with a beer and relaxed, and thought to yourself, my God life is wonderful? Why would anyone create wars, drama and fights from that standpoint, from that state of peace? Well why is that so unrealistic? If everyone sat down and relaxed, there would be no wars, right? It's sort of that childishly simple. So why don't we do that? Why do we wage wars? Well honestly it beats me, I have no clue. Human nature? I don't know. But, peace is so simple, actually. Look, I say like the musician Björk: I thought I could organize freedom, how Scandinavian of me! Maybe freedom can't be organized, but we can be inspired by Plomari as an idea in the collective consciousness. Please don't get me wrong, I am not a prophet, I don't even want to be seen as a Guru. Hey dears, don't even see me as a teacher. Think for yourself, make your own decisions, don't listen to me. I am just a simple man who is in love with my wife and likes to drink a glass of pink champagne in the morning. I am just in love with life and my wife, my wife who is my life, and I'm in love with the idea of a beautiful magical world for all of Humanity. I'm just a simple man who got a funny idea when I was high as my own balls on magic mushrooms. And that funny idea is my eternal Queendom of Plomari.

(As nighttime comes they all take a break with some more pink champagne. The next morning the discussion continues.)

KING SPIROS: You know, it gets more complex and complicated though. Is it even sure that the Government controls the world? The human world, can it be said that it is run by anyone specific? The human world is so large that technically no one is in control, it has its own life, so to say. See what I mean?

THE GOVERNMENT: Yes, I see what you mean.

KING SPIROS: Well well, now that I have cursed right in your face for a while, let me calm down and let's continue talking about all this. Good morning everyone.

THE GOVERNMENT: Good morning, your Majesty.

KING SPIROS: I wish to say, I really don't have any answers. I have more questions than answers. But as a philosopher, and well as a human being, I think about a lot of strange stuff, stuff that maybe not everyone has thought about. Like this thing with the Sun and Earth. The sun will expand and go supernova eventually, even if it's like a billion years ahead. This will destroy the earth and all eventual life on earth will die and vanish. What if the Earth knows this? I know it's a strange thought. But what if technology, created by Humanity, is the Earth's strategy to save itself. Maybe we are meant to reach out into space and ensure the continuation of carbon-based life after the death of Earth. Maybe we are suppossed to bring carbon-based life out into the universe. It's just a thought, but hey.

THE GOVERNMENT: I know of such ideas and speculations too. It's fascinating. You are definately not the only one who has thought about such things.

KING SPIROS: And sorry for screaming and being angry. I'm just really tired of the bullshit going on in the world. Everyone wants change, as I said yesterday. I'm like not even angry, I'm just really focused and for real. And I am genuinely concearned. You know? I don't even know what Plomari will become. I just want to live in my little Kingdom with my Queens and have sex and drink some pink champagne. I just wanna sit naked with Queen Butterfly and melt in her beauty, glory and splendor. I don't need much to be happy. A Kingdom? I don't know, what the f**k ever, call it something else then if that's such a big leap for you, yes a little f**king Kingdom where everything is nice and peaceful. Is that so strange? Why is that so strange? Is that too much to ask for, to have the abillity to enjoy my life instead of living in pain, frustration and struggle? Isn't that what we all want? That's all I ever wanted anyways, to just enjoy my life instead of living in pain.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well I must say that is a Royal way of looking at it. Of course, to live a good life is everyone's wish and goal, I guess.

KING SPIROS: Exactly. And talking about the Plomarian impulse that I mentioned yesterday, please listen to the following song and pay close attention to the lyrics and energy.

KING SPIROS: Is that band part of Plomari? I don't know, but you may notice he is saying exactly what I am saying, that he has had enough, etc. Right, so that is Plomari. Whether I am friends with the band or not, right, pun intended. Besides, I have invited them several times to my Kingdom so they might know about me as well. It doesn't matter really, Plomari is keyed both ways.

THE GOVERNMENT: I actually understand completely what you mean, King Spiros. This is getting more and more interresting.

KING SPIROS: Right so now you finally understand me. Welcome home to Plomari. You want a glass of Pommery champagne, dear? So really, in many ways, Plomari is not even something new. It's just my way of putting things into a context. And what is it all about then? Well it's basically simply about the salvation of Mankind. And it's about rescuing the Earth and Nature.

QUEEN BUTTERFLY OF PLOMARI: I love how curious and supportive you are, my King Spiros!

KING SPIROS: I'm just trying to put words on it all. I have been thinking about these things my whole life. It's really hard for me to put in words. But I'm trying.

THE GOVERNMENT: So again, what do we do now, King Spiros and Queen Butterfly?

KING SPIROS: I want to have sex with my wife and drink some pink champagne right now.

QUEEN BUTTERFLY: Yes I'm also horny, my love.

THE GOVERNMENT: You guys are funny, hahaha! Sex and champagne, so that's the first step in saving the world?

QUEEN BUTTERFLY: Hahaha, absolutely!

QUEEN SISSY COGAN OF PLOMARI: You know, a funny way of looking at all this is that if we distill the entire historical continuum down to its essence, we get Plomari.

QUEEN BUTTERFLY: That's a very cool way of looking at it.

KING SPIROS: I love that.

THE GOVERNMENT: So Plomari can be said to simply be everything?

KING SPIROS: I guess we could say that, yes. The cosmic totality. The name Plomari is connected to the word pleroma which in my book is the universe and life as one perfect harmonious God's Creation.

THE GOVERNMENT: So King Spiros, you have basically been waiting for the rest of the world to catch up with you?

KING SPIROS: Yes, for quite exactly 22 years now. I began experiencing Plomari around year 2000. Then it has been getting clearer and clearer ever since. Now let's take that break with sex and champagne and continue talking later.

(After the sex and champagne, in the middle of the night, the discussion went on.)

KING SPIROS: Everything became just as I wish, and that's just how confident I am.

THE GOVERNMENT: Nothing less for a true King, right?

KING SPIROS: That's true, that's true.

THE GOVERNMENT: So let me see if I have understood you. You are a kind, gentle man who just wanted to have sex with your amazingly beautiful wife and drink some champagne instead of living in pain and suffering and war. So you established a Kingdom for yourself and your wife and did exactly that, you had sex and drank some champagne?

KING SPIROS: Pretty much exactly so.

THE GOVERNMENT: Sounds like paradise to me.

KING SPIROS: It's totally paradise. Indeed.

THE GOVERNMENT: I understand that there's much more to the story than that but as a simplified version of what you are saying that is what happened?

KING SPIROS: That is correct.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well it sounds like a pretty healthy way of living, really. I think a lot of people would like to live like you are living. I mean I have read a bit of your book series and you are obviously living a very fun life, the way you describe it anyway.

KING SPIROS: My life is amazing.

THE GOVERNMENT: So you just want world peace and live a happy life with your wife?

KING SPIROS: Pretty much says it all.

THE GOVERNMENT: You sound like a pretty healthy King to me.

KING SPIROS: As a summation, I'm just a human being in love with my wife and who loves life, and who doesn't mind a glass of champagne now an then to spice things up. And yes, world peace would be nice. Let's make that happen.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well you are not as strange as I initially thought. You seem to have a lot of common sense.

QUEEN BUTTERFLY: King Spiros is the most adorable person ever. He's impossible not to fall in love with.

THE GOVERNMENT: Hahaha! So, King Spiros, all this about you being crazy, a bit evil and strange was just you putting on a show?

KING SPIROS: I was bored. Plus, I was under a lot of pressure. Felt like it was me against the world there for a while. For many years, in fact. Like, many many many years. It made me very sad, angry and frustrated.

QUEEN BUTTERFLY: You're an angel sent from Heaven above, my King. You take away all my pain.

KING SPIROS: And you take away all my pain, my love.

(The next day the discussion continued.)

KING SPIROS: So what is real and what is imagination in Plomari sort of doesn't matter most of the time. Is Plomari a country? Is it a real country? For me it is, although you Governments of Earth would probably not recognize it as a real country. But that doesn't matter to me and the Plomarian people. For us it's real.

THE GOVERNMENT: Does that make you angry? That the Government does not see Plomari as a real country?

KING SPIROS: No. I mean it's understandable. We Plomarians do not claim any specific piece of land, we are spread out across the globe and well we do call the Earth by the name Plomari but we don't have any land with borders or such that we claim to be ours. So we're a country in the hearts of the people rather, I guess one could say. So no I'm not angry about that. As I said earlier Plomari is more of an idea, and a way of life, something to be inspired by, it's not so much a physical construct. We could also say Plomari is a whole vibe of its own. It's the vibe of loving life, where one feels one is in Paradise. Plomari is our word for Paradise.

THE GOVERNMENT: I understand. Thank you for being so clear in your words about all this. I must say, you are a world famous author, you have written 15 books about Plomari so far. Writing about a fictional Kingdom is not illegal. If you and some others choose to see your stories as being real, no one can stop you from doing that. So if your stories and Plomari is real or not is up for everyone to decide for themselves, right? For you it is obviously real, yet some people may see your books as pure fiction.

KING SPIROS: I am an author, yes. It was by writing my books the idea of Plomari came to me. And yes you are right, I do write fiction, but it's also mixed with non-fiction. Again, what is real and what is imagination in Plomari? As you say that is up for everyone on their own to decide. But for me and the other Plomarians it is of course real.

THE GOVERNMENT: So your Queendom of Plomari makes more sense to me now. I even love the idea myself. You are, and sorry for simplifying Plomari now but, you are a group of people who stand for peace and like to celebrate Life, and call the Earth paradise, but with your own invented word Plomari. Am I correct?

KING SPIROS: You nailed it.

THE GOVERNMENT: Well there seems to be nothing wrong with that. You sound like an amazing group of people if you ask me. The Plomarians; it has a very beautiful ring to it.

KING SPIROS: Thank you for being so understanding. I was kind of worried that the Government would see me completely as a trouble maker. I am not as crazy as I make myself seem sometimes, in my own opinion anyway. And I have thought my ideas through for my whole life. My ideas are more well thought through than some people give me credit for.

THE GOVERNMENT: Talking with you in person like this makes you seem much more down to Earth than when I was reading your books. You are honestly not even strange if you ask me. Hahaha! You are making perfect sense in everything you say.

KING SPIROS: I appreciate you saying this.

THE GOVERNMENT: So again, you have written 15 books about the Queendom of Plomari. The twist is that you say it's not only fictional but that Plomari is a real Queendom. There's really nothing wrong with that. I mean who would try and stop you, and why?

KING SPIROS: I guess that's true.

THE GOVERNMENT: In fact we have religious freedom here where you live, and freedom of speech, and such things. If you want to believe in Plomari, and write books about it, and live your life as a Plomarian, no one will try and stop you.

KING SPIROS: That's very true.

THE GOVERNMENT: Only thing is that some people might not understand you. But that's not your problem, that's their problem. Even I understand you now after our discussion, King Spiros. A little bit anyway, hahaha!

KING SPIROS: Thank you, dear Government, and thank you for listening. I wish to say, this is the beginning of a feeling that you will like me. If we get to know each other better, dear Government, I think you will love me. As I said I am not a trouble maker. I am here to help out on planet Earth, I'm not here to cause trouble.

KING SPIROS: And what could possibly beat me, when I am as resilient as Love itself, in Satori? I'm enlightened, what is anybody gonna do about it? No sorry, I'm just joking, I would not call myself enlightened. I don't really believe in enlightenment, but. I have come home to God after all these years, that I will say.

THE GOVERNMENT: Speaking of belief, where you live there is actually a law that states that no one is obliged to reveal which religion they believe in. If you would want to live your life as Plomarian in secret, no one can force you to say you believe in Plomari. But, you as King seem more interested in telling people, because you want to share Plomari with the world? Am I right?

KING SPIROS: That's interesting! And yes I do wish to share Plomari with the world, that's why I write my books.

THE GOVERNMENT: So what do we do now, your Majesty?

KING SPIROS: I just popped a bottle of Pommery champagne. Do you want some? Dear Government, you know what Plomari is? It's the place where I can just be myself. I may have been weird in the past, but I just couldn't see clearly back then. Now I see it so clearly, my dearest Kingdom of Plomari, it's the place where I can just truly be myself.

THE GOVERNMENT: I feel I am beginning to understand a bit about your philosophy. Especially after reading parts of your books. And your philosophy is both simple and complex, deep and light-hearted. You are basically saying: Love your life and be a kind person, and do whatever you want as long as you don't harm anyone. And try to be caring, care about yourself, others, the animals, the Earth, the plants, the oceans. It's sort of... so simple when you say it like you say it, King Spiros.

KING SPIROS: Of course. I mean, this is also of course what all religions say, and it's worth saying these things. Life can be so simple. I mean it's like obvious, the whole thing, right? It's just natural. Well it might seem obvious, but some people need to hear this.

THE GOVERNMENT: Yes the world is upside down in many ways. And people need some guidance sometimes.

KING SPIROS: You know, I don't always want to break down Plomari into little pieces. Plomari is best experienced without too much analysis. And it's incredibly vast and deep, that's why I have written 3000 pages, 15 books about it. But it's fun talking about this. We're clearing some things out for sure. And I would like to say, the world is not only like a little bit upside down. The world is absolutely fucked up. That's why my eternal Kingdom of Plomari is so important, because it makes actual sense, my Kingdom is a light in the darkness of human history. The human world doesn't make sense, but Plomari does. Plomari is more true to itself than the human world. And so, dear Government, maybe this time you can be on me and my people's side? Afterall, we share this Earth now, you and me. We need to cooperate, not fight with each other. You know, hey, all I wanted was a tiny little innocent mushroom to chew down. I don't ask for much in this life, just one f**king tiny little innocent mushroom. And look, I'm not trying to be mean but you don't have a remote chance to control Plomari. As I said, not even I can control my Kingdom by now, it's too big. So the game is over, my friends. I am the Sun, and I don't give a fuck. I will shine my Light on you, regardless of what you think of me.

To be continued... maybe...
