Poetry Contest

~collective consciousness~
      
 The world we experiance is made up of, the thoughts assumptions and beliefs we sow, and cultivate. Do we meet people as they really are. Or merly the way we percive them threw our own filters.

Does there still exist a sensible reality worthy of a second thought.
It seems my Imagination has failed me leaving me hopeless and distraught.
Unable to view the world thew my once whimsical eyes.
Much to distracted bye the propaganda and all the well told lies.
Resembling a herd of sheep, rigorously following with no resistance.
Willingly being blindsided from the meaning of our existence.
Maybe the thoughts to Incomprehensible from the normality you may find.
Or can it be the sort of clarity that seems to cloud the mind.

N.W.O

new world order? no the truth is
Nazi World Order
what I want is No World Order
I am with the founding fathers of the Original United States
they had a vision, a good one for humanity
Washington and Lincoln are the only presidents I admire
and in my contemplation they wanted to establish utopia
of wealth and wisdom
but then the Nazis had to come and corrupt the declaration
of independence
Nazi aliens came to Earth in their bullshit space ships
used all sorts of trickery and propaganda, science and dogma
to enslave every body on the planet to a Nazi World Order
but the angelic forces of love and light and the ground crew
on Earth had that freak sauce, you know that tweek sauce
that sweet and sour slap your mama's boyfriend in the
mouth sauce
and we had to shut their shit down, blast a couple of rounds
then let loose with the ammunition, turn their bodies
into opinions that nobody give a damn about
then we had a barbecue on the 4th, Nazis not invited
because they don't like to share and they want you
to raise your hand like you still in school, we grown
we don't play them games, we don't be raising our hands
to speak, for permission, or to take a shit
the powerful have armies, but the omnipotent have technology
and they were searching for more power, relics
they want the Star Maker,
the stars you see on the United States flag
when you can make a star, you basically a god
and every body, human or alien, wants to be a god

INSIGNIFICANT


Insignificant
He said
People are insignificant to me
Id rather be
A radiant moon
A gust of wind
A tree...

You are of no significance
To me
You are my concubine
My serpentine
Blame it on my alter ego
My self Divine

My higher self
Talking to a false god
Replica of simulation
Reincarnated communication

Divided by two halves
Of the same reality
Where in the spectrum
Is the color of life?

Who cares?
Who dares?

The bones know the truth

'Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching'  C.S. Lewis


Call what you want  
the world changes, churns  
every decade, every century  
tides turn,    
the undertow lingers  
earth temperature rise  
thawing glaciers, crumbling    
walls, flooding beliefs  
disfiguring theories  
in the metaphysical nature  
of 'good' and 'evil'.  
   
Reality of abstract illusions  
in a universe of contradictions  
a product of one's environment  
an excuse, a cliche  
in a non-linear narrative  
of bloodbath of atrocities.  
   
Carelessness of society  
endangered ethics and morality  
drowned in hypocrisy of adjectives  
thumbing the thesaurus  
for pages of nobility  
to justify actions, sanctions  
shifting responsibility  
covering the feeble skin  
with political correctness  
numbing the pain  
inebriating fear  
to fit, to mould  
with the masses  
   
in glass houses  
lined with white powder  
inhaling diamond dust  
in the back alleys of    
graffitied corners  
rolling gunji while staring    
at the flicking lights  
the canvas bears witness  
to all the heroes of the past  
silently weeping;  
the bones today do not  
possess the marrow    
of yesterday.  
   
Burn the books  
history, religion and philosophy  
we have learned nothing  
nothing  
the grit and steel  
of men and women  
with iron fists  
courage running incessantly  
thru their veins  
revolution frothing  
from eyes of flames  
un-bowing to tyranny    
   
giving a fuck,    
dismissing the act  
turning boys to men,  
who didn't cower to the notion;  
bad guys always win in the end.  
   
The bones bear the weight  
long after tongues are slashed  
   
revealing the truth  
they didn't die in vain.

Sensible Reality

Maybe if I knew what you meant  
we could continue
with the subject matter,
as a matter of fact I'm lost in
a world that feels lonely and transparent
but what am I supposed to do
while I struggle to find myself?
Collecting my self consciousness
before the world takes it from me,
the experience of thoughts and
assumptions that make me who I am.
Who are you to try and cultivate
my beliefs when in reality there is
nothing you can do to hinder my progress?
Seldom will you meet people for who they are,
instead you get the best side of a thorn bush
but I'm speaking from who I am around you,
the smile is real but the emotion is missing
I rather not be in your presence if that's
okay with you. Perceive me anyway you want,
there is nothing missing, the reason my
sensible reality isn't worth a second thought.

Reporting and reality

As a society of individuals
some very nice, some criminals
we tend to be influenced as a mass
by what's in the news and shoved up our ass

I've seen the news, sometimes before my eyes
And by 5pm it has been sensationalized
Now we all know that bad news sells
as we believe what the broadcaster tells

Oh they tell us that is such a great service
Even though what they say might make us nervous
But what we see has to fit between commercials
But most of all it must be controversial

It is not in-depth, nor characterize
The way you and I might live our lives
But give the stage to murder and war
politics, cheating, and rape galore

This just in,
don't be confused
They are suppose to report
not be the news?


It is not about reporting
The news with intelligence
they think that they are the story
and that's true arrogance


I have a way to change your perception
And this I will share with you.
Stop the intake of this garbage dump
It will likely change your view
