the truth
The truth
What is the truth
should have been easy
to answer
but there are many truth
often depending on
a religious faith
There is a Christian truth
A Buddhist truth
An Islamic truth
Based on a system of beliefs
All the people who belong to
any of those groups
Think of what they believe
as the truth
The nearest we can come to
an unadulterated truth is
You Shall Not Kill!
This an axiom
that cannot be overcome
with a yes, but...

call me Joe
Call me Joe
I do not take pleasure in seeing the Joe Bidden
in the throes of senility, those who pushed him
into running, knew he was not sharp
he was always the company man
did their work
From what I know about this man
"Call Me Joe" was about a nasty man who
suffered low grades at school, but he had
the cunning of fools voting for those
who could make his life better
Tus he rise in power as a man to
be rusted
and we know what that entails
AI did trust him implicitly, owned them
many favors I...

Why (Without the Question Mark)
A fools query,
An unsolvable riddle.
An endless loop,
Without a real answer.
I don’t need to beg you for closure,
I don’t need to fix myself for you.
Sometimes a reason isn’t needed,
Or maybe you never even had one.
What answer could you give,
That would be worthy of this hurt?
What reason can explain away these scars,
Can it rinse away blood?
Can it erase the nights I spent wailing,
Can it stitch me back together.
I don’t need your excuses,
I don’t need the last word.

I Can’t Swim
Power,
In the hands of corpses.
If our country is ever changing,
So too should its "Rulers”.
We can't keep standing still and saying we're trying to cross the sea,
Because we'll never get to land.
I don't want to drown..
In the hands of corpses.
If our country is ever changing,
So too should its "Rulers”.
We can't keep standing still and saying we're trying to cross the sea,
Because we'll never get to land.
I don't want to drown..

Appearances
I don’t blame people for assuming,
I don’t blame outsiders for not looking in.
If you saw a shop with a sign that said “pet store”,
You’d assume if you looked in you’d see pets and pet supplies.
If you saw a building with a sign that said library,
You’d assume if you looked in you’d see books and desks.
If you saw people labeled “mother” and “father”,
You’d assume they were nurturing and caring of their children.
But “Mother” and “Father” are not titles to be earned,
It’s a...

Eyes
I wake with the unsettling feeling of something that feels like it watch's my dreams.
this familiar feeling that draws me back in like a receding tide.
a bitter sweet taste left in my mouth followed by flashes of pain and regret.
a sore that wont heal, a lie that must be told again and again.
I begin running down an endless corridor of memory's and lost hope searching for an answer that never comes. the shadows of my past tearing at my psyche with every step I take, stealing from me the very understanding I so desperately need.
I am trapped in...

Reflection of my Father
If I screamed,
Would he hear me?
He cannot see my pain,
But he smells my blood.
He tastes it in the air.
Like a shark,
It sends him into a pointless rage.
His teeth hurt just as bad.
I was born from his anger,
A reflection of his greatest fears.
His most secretive desires.
I am everything he couldn’t be,
He cannot hide his jealously.
A delicious swirl of painful rage and sadness.
I feel pity for his hurt,
I...
Would he hear me?

Mediocre Inc.
At what age did you find that mediocre's fine,
In corporate halls where the average thrives?
Playing the game with a heart that's malign,
Ignoring respect for the human lives.
Do just the minimum, meets expectations align,
Why strive for more when the soul rarely jives?
It's all about survival, your mental health's sign,
I'd rather close myself in my shell than live this hell.
In realms where misery loves company well,
I choose my own path, adventures to tell.
No more the facade, no more the corporate spell,

Memories
You told me you forgot,
How does that feel?
I remember everything,
From the tears in your eyes,
To how you looked with blood on your sleeves.
I’m happy you can forget,
How does one forget?
I remember you screaming,
Can you still hear it?
Can you still make that noise?
I sit awake at night,
While you grasp onto remnants of nightmares.
I suffer like you,
But I suffer with my eyes open.
What else...
How does that feel?
I remember everything,
From the tears in your eyes,
To how you looked with blood on your sleeves.
I’m happy you can forget,

Can you still hear it?
Can you still make that noise?
I sit awake at night,
While you grasp onto remnants of nightmares.
I suffer like you,
But I suffer with my eyes open.
What else...

Restless
Unending static
The sound of a restless mind
Shuffling in its bed
Blankets kicked to the floor
It wails and screams
Scratching deep red lines into its legs
All its wants is to sleep
To embrace a comforting darkness
Hitting its head against the wall
Begging for unconsciousness
To drown its own voice
To forget its cries
A worried little creature with absolutely nothing to worry about
Unending static
The sound of a restless child
The sound of a restless mind
Shuffling in its bed
Blankets kicked to the floor
It wails and screams
Scratching deep red lines into its legs
All its wants is to sleep
To embrace a comforting darkness
Hitting its head against the wall
Begging for unconsciousness
To drown its own voice
To forget its cries
A worried little creature with absolutely nothing to worry about
Unending static
The sound of a restless child
