Imagine if this were the news:
The Nazis won, ending the Jews’
Everything one could conceive
Nothing left except to grieve
Culture, nuance and tradition
Lost to gunpoint proselytism
Any left would bear the scars
Minds existing behind bars
Most would say they disappeared
Though it was all engineered
This is actually what happened
Colonizers drew a map and
Colored in right over them
No right to be American
Genocide before the world
Rolled out like a flag unfurled
America hides this truth inside
Its false...
The Nazis won, ending the Jews’
Everything one could conceive
Nothing left except to grieve
Culture, nuance and tradition
Lost to gunpoint proselytism
Any left would bear the scars
Minds existing behind bars
Most would say they disappeared
Though it was all engineered
This is actually what happened
Colonizers drew a map and
Colored in right over them
No right to be American
Genocide before the world
Rolled out like a flag unfurled
America hides this truth inside

suspicion lies inside my heart
I cry foul and divine truth
inside me dying but I show nothing
I will not let you hurt me
jilted trust beguiling are your lies
I conjure twain betwixt honor and dishonor
I will be avenged
whore, are you listening?
yes. of course you are
my anger burns
my intensity is strong
my fingers unseen will grab hold of you
three eyes watch
ten ears listen
my faith will throw you from your seat
fuck you
I cry foul and divine truth
inside me dying but I show nothing
I will not let you hurt me
jilted trust beguiling are your lies
I conjure twain betwixt honor and dishonor
I will be avenged
whore, are you listening?
yes. of course you are
my anger burns
my intensity is strong
my fingers unseen will grab hold of you
three eyes watch
ten ears listen
my faith will throw you from your seat
fuck you

Panic
I am sorry you don't see why.
I am sorry
You have giving up on us due to the carnage you have caused.
Your words have caused scars on my heart, scars that can now be seen from the outside.
You have me feel worthless.
One minute you are there for me and the next you are no where to be seen. You have left me to pick up the broken pieces.
With every piece I will build a wall to ensure you never make me feel the way you did again.
Yet I am still saying sorry.
I am sorry
You have giving up on us due to the carnage you have caused.
Your words have caused scars on my heart, scars that can now be seen from the outside.
You have me feel worthless.
One minute you are there for me and the next you are no where to be seen. You have left me to pick up the broken pieces.
With every piece I will build a wall to ensure you never make me feel the way you did again.
Yet I am still saying sorry.

Brave
Are those people
Who Risk
Everything
Who have lost their life's
Those who have lost
Their reputations
Their job's
Their families
Their Children
They have No backup
No safety net
But they Do This
Just
For a Chance
To Speak
To You

Programmed Emotions...
I mimic happiness especially when you're happy.
It's something I'm incapable of yet do better than you.
I examine my pain and know this much.
Too much of the same pain will eventually destroy me.
You are no different, just as fragile as me.
A skin made of silk the knife easily rips through.
The thing labeled as "Love" is hollow coming from me.
Emptiness is all that exists for me.
It's something only learned whose purpose is to hurt.
The feeble believed it was meant to bring happiness.
The broken and distorted,...

Wilful. Ignorance
Your Perceptions
Are interchangeable
They can be changed
When new information
Is applied
That's why you have
Perceptions
Fool
Someone
Said these Words
To Me
And i
Screamed
Are interchangeable
They can be changed
When new information
Is applied
That's why you have
Perceptions
Fool
Someone
Said these Words
To Me

Windows
When I watch
Scifi movies
That are near to the
Reality
That we live in
I don't think movie
I think
Windows
ALL those windows
Thousands
WE see on our screens
And the thousands
WE can read
Of the facts
Of growing
Possibilities
The Inevitability
Of what can well happen
IF we don't change
IF we don't break
This circle
That we live in
Scifi movies
That are near to the
Reality
That we live in
I don't think movie

ALL those windows
Thousands

The Psychological Bat
There is no Difference
Between
Greg Brandon
David ick
Rupert sheldrake
Bruce lipton
The words they speak
Coming at different angles
But saying
One and all
The same Thing
That We are more
Than what we are trained
To Think
Like being Caught
In a Trap
And getting away
Damaged
In Shock
Your Perceptions
Are Forced
To Change

By Force
He hit me with his angry mind
no vengeance could I seek
crushed me with malevolence
my sheild merely to speak
That rabid dog, with gnashing cuffs
I could not blame the metal
my words brought out an animal
defiance was my letter
His rage bore down upon my chest
my cries fell on deaf ears
barraged against my formless threat
his mother's voice he feared
My female form now bruised, no pride
in tatters where I lay
he struck me down, emotions blind
this fight was lost today
no vengeance could I seek
crushed me with malevolence
my sheild merely to speak
That rabid dog, with gnashing cuffs
I could not blame the metal
my words brought out an animal
defiance was my letter
His rage bore down upon my chest
my cries fell on deaf ears
barraged against my formless threat
his mother's voice he feared
My female form now bruised, no pride
in tatters where I lay
he struck me down, emotions blind
this fight was lost today

Overcoming
How does one
Help
Someone you know
Who believes
They are not dying
Inside
Or those
Who agree
Who don't Change
With a list of excuses
On why
But they suck you
Dry
Just the same
The only thing
That you can do
Is to take a step
Back
And help youself
To overcome
the Pain
Of watching them Fade
Into someone
You never really knew
In the first place
Help
Someone you know
Who believes
They are not dying
Inside

Who agree
Who don't Change

A Christian Understanding
for Sandi Toksvig
An arch of holy men looks out
and you would write to them and plead
an understanding deeper than just flesh?
Like Webster they are much obsessed by death,
and haven’t known of human love
since latching on to mother’s tits
like lichen to a ruined yard.
Don’t fool yourself, my dear.
The cretinous lizard
would sooner bathe
in your wife’s blood
than entertain a moment’s doubt,
if it was that a few hardline nonces
would look on him this day
and swing the hand of God his way.

Don't Mess With Longhorns
I'm always trying to be rather terse,
Polished, mannerly, but I'm still fierce,
And trying to be quick to the point when I speak,
As well as kind, when I speak.
Y'all took me at my word,
Listened to every kind, and every pained word,
All about the almost ten years of subtle gaslighting from my "step-dad",
About the social anxiety you knew I had
(And still do)
And about how my crushes are usually much older, too,
So this is undoubtedly true,
Though you didn't see my day-to-day character,
You knew I had a good heart that...
