anger and frustration

Cancer of the Heart and Mind

What’s with all the fucking hate and anger going on recently?
It’s always been there but now it’s out there more blatantly,
What’s going on with these people’s sense of decency?
Why are people so stupid with a lot more frequency?

Why are motherfuckers going around yelling out all these insults and obscenities?
Are there that many assholes in the world they’re now revealing their true identities?
Has hatred always been hiding down in the basement and then just snuck up?
I swear these idiots and bigots need a cork up their spigots to shut the fuck up!

The land of opportunity is lately more like a plot of bigotry and misogyny,
There are so many imbeciles in our society it’s a catastrophe and a calamity,
Morons behaving like turds and stools coming out of the woodwork and cesspools,
They behave worse than animals worse than jackasses acting like fools!

It’s exasperating to see and hear their slurs they’re just so miserable,
They’re so pathetic and feeble, their lives must be completely irreparable,
They walk around so angry and mad it’s sad it’s devouring them on the inside,
It must be some kind of cancer of the heart and mind but it shows on their hide.

I want to tell them: I feel sorry for you, hatred is eating at you and your soul,
You have so much hurt in you like a child’s tantrum you can’t control,
You’re belligerent and ignorant, maybe uninformed in many ways,
Education starts at home, so maybe it’s the way you were raised.

Should we blame your parents and parent’s parents going back so far?
To identify the root of your hate so that you can see what you are,
Or do you go to church and believe in a different God and bible?
Stop berating with all your hating I’m just saying break the fucking cycle!

Your insults and offences show nothing but your weakness and pretenses,
A lack of intelligence, a dimwitted capability short of what common sense is,
Look at yourself in the mirror and shut up if you have nothing nice to say,
You belittle and embarrass yourself you’re a disgrace to the human race.

If you have no regard toward others how do you have respect for yourself?
It reflects a broken personal life, so check yourself before you wreck yourself!
Life’s too short to be going around angry all the time at your fellow man,
Because the day we meet our maker than we truly understand the plan.

I can’t help but get upset and frustrated for my colleagues, family and friends,
I can’t help but see the ugliness in the world, will we ever make amends?
But I believe the love we feel for those close to us will reach others,
The respect we give will spread beyond our sisters and brothers.

It doesn’t matter what country, creed, color or your preference is,
As long as we love one another we can overcome this.

World order end game

It's time we re-moralize the masses and redefined the classes in this socially structured institution of lies and greedy arses!

When words set a fire because they speak your desire and all those people silently living as sheeple wake up and realize,

they can't even describe how this makes them feel inside,

our sensitivity to the laws doesn't come without cause,

persecuted for preference just trying to self-represent.

Our choices are not our own even when we act alone,

some government official can make life difficult like we live in some weird little cult,

who came up with middle men of society, bankers, insurance and mortgage advisory,

those who set your allowance as minimum wage and don't get the rage because we're still getting paid,

"don't live beyond your means" but what can you get beyond toast and beans?

free health care that's shoddy at best, no matter what it is "it's fine just get some rest",

by the time a doctors seen you - your already dead, no one paid attention when you complained of an aching chest!

An education system built to programme and devise, more scheming ways to make us believe the lies, get us while we're young before we're compromised.....

Just to let everyone know; I have been reading and so far the poems are awesome 😁  Keep them coming. Thanks to all that posted!

"At the End of the Day"

My mind is encumbered with anger and sorrow eating away my peaceable brain
Each day new revelations enlighten the road of a prophesied dark revolution  
My heart weighs heavy, bleeding with worry, overloaded and full of revulsion
To gain independence from abject Alt-Amerikans raping a divided nation
Though I believe in the alternative peace, no choice is left in electoral defeat
The alt-right is all-wrong and already spreading a new strain of deplorable hate  
An ignorant parasite determined to consume what is left of your dogmatic brain
the zombie's predatory disease lurks in the dark, fearing exposure to Son-light  
I fear there's no cure to make US alright, only their second amendment remedy
Apparently kissed with a curse spilled in this verse, dripping from the tip of my pen  
Who can say where ends the ink that blends with my blood on the very last end of the day?

The chains of gender...

I remember when the red lens of life was paler  
My sea of bitter  
Just a puddle in the distance  
And my raft wings  
Blinded from the things that were wrong  
By the briteness of my own eyes  
Looking only at the can and can'ts and not the whys  
Doing my part with a clear conscience  
And a pure heart  
The deck of opportunity stacked for my demise  
And those I adored to rise  
This debt I owed  
This restitution bestowed  
A diguise of greed  
And powers need  
The future to tender
There's no surrender
To the chains of gender
The crimson of my visions hue  
Grows as deep as my sea

Wearing Off

Hot and angry tears sliding down my face,
But I do not care to wipe them away.
Punching a wall does not erase the trace

Of your footprints leaving me. I want to stray
Off the road and hit something extremely hard
Until my knuckles are bloody. Every ashtray

Only reminds me of your ugly habit. Every shard
Digging into my skin feels more freeing that what
We did together. I am walking down this boulevard

Lonely and forgotten. Leave me alone while I shut
Out the rest of the world, telling me to get over it.
I will never forget the way you let me get cut

And let me bleed out on the empty streets. Bit
By bit I am losing my mind. There will be nothing
Left except numbness and emptiness. I want to quit

This up and down rollercoaster ride. The buzzing
Will wear off and maybe then I will be able to live,
But let me stew in my anger while never bluffing.

Selfishness

My parents have been gone all day
and my grandpa is dying
the emptiness of my own body
gravitationally takes over the whole house;
emptiness outside me
emptiness within me
I look out the window, aimlessly

When did things get so different?
When did I get so different?
When did the world get so different?
Oh wait it’s different all the time
I’m different all the time
why do I constantly think change is
casual
inconsequential
limiting?

My parents have been gone all day
and my grandpa is dying
but let me just watch you guys talk about cats in an irrelevant groupchat
because fuck self containment
fuck this “trivial” seclusion
fuck my feelings-
I am selfish,
I am selfish all the time;
and no matter how much I say this to myself in the mirror,
flip my hair behind my ear and stare at my
unwilling
unfazed
unnecessary
eyes,
I can’t seem to stop being ignorant.
"selfish" has become me:
my identity
put it on a name tag please

My parents…
have been gone all day
and my grandpa is dying
so when will the silence start?
because even when i’m alone quiet does not exist
sound, will never be relinquished

take away my ears
and maybe then when I try to flip my hair behind something that isn’t there
and get mad about how lacking I am, then maybe then,
I will finally be able to understand my selfishness
slap it in the face
Because I should have been there
and because I was scared,
because I was uninterested,
I wasn’t;

My parents have been gone all day
and my grandpa is dying-
I never seem to learn... Do I

TO BREAK FREE

Locked inside these stone cold walls
Traped within my mind I fall
Embrace myself for what is near
Prepare yourself for what you fear
All your darkness is shredding me
I'll break these chains eventually
Blackness fills me with no sight
Breaking free is my only fight
Shackled chains intwined with stone
All I feel are my twisted bones
To get away I close my eyes
Take my soul into the sky
Soon it comes to fly away
When I do you better pray

Done

I was angry before.
It mounted in me as the foundations were shaken
The benthic depths of being
Lurched at the faultline
Raw red-hot reaction bubbled forth
No longer small enough to be quenched by the cool tides of rationalization
Casting the cardinal glow suppressed for too long
On ugly toothy faces of truth wriggling and grinning at me
Truth in a situation masked by your words
YOUR words.

Because YOUR words were what mattered
YOUR feelings had to be catered to
YOU and YOUR expectations
YOUR standards
Of what I needed to be.

My plates didn't like being jabbed at just so
You and your fracking words jarred tectonics into motion
A rumble beneath my benthic being, and the cool mind followed
Heated by the reactionary magmatic impulse
It surged forward precisely as physics would have it
Following the variables and equations, you could have predicted it
Potential became kinetic
And you didn't move
You didn't MOVE.

Why could you never MOVE?
Why couldn't you ADAPT to situations
BEND a little so I didn't have to do it all
Because there was only so far I was willing to BEND OVER
Before I BROKE.

But when the surf met the shore
When will met way
It wasn't hot anymore
The molten fire cooled and hardened with time
Sharp igneous memories lay vaguely back in my depths
The wave crashed, and the spray was cool
As I quietly cut away the ties holding me to your pier
I drifted away from your shore, and it wasn't an act of God
I left because I chose to do it
After seeing the wreckage I'd become if I stayed.

LifeLess

what made this soul seem so crescent
marking her time to whats know present.
but the sweetist life embraced  from the sun.
it's very essence slapped by the pain.
Wishing, wanting, hoping,
that her life she hasnt left.
Dire is the darkness imaged of once seen.
such time that's now, for midnight hour
Hiding souls that creep and lour.
allowing lonelyness, love, and hate into  reality
lost in the shadows of from the memmory of her
sinking into  alluring euphoria, familiar yet unknown.
this shall be her truth, invisible yet shown.
the mindlessly catatonic dead but living,her dreadful
manic life.
she that bears a faceless reflection within.
here under the melancolic sound.
Wishing, wanting, hoping,
disapearing of scars that still bleed.
what made this soul lifless and no longer crescent
marking her time to whats no longer present.
