My long lost friend
I have a friend named Donald who just came home. For four long years it's been a reincarnation of Rome.
My friend has ideas for a country in need. Donald is the man for the job, indeed.
I live among people who claim he is bad. These same people find joy in executing the child of a future dad.
It's been a long time and I'm happy to know there are planes ready to go south to Mexico.
Keep your chin up as we can be proud
The silent majority on paper were loud.

Embracing That Powerful Majestic Melanin
In the shroud of greatness, there lays the echoes of our silent truth. Therefore, whenever you utilize any of those universal patents, know that someone labored over, ideas, revisions, hopeful, they were not discriminated against just to represent their powerful intellects.
It really gives me such honor, to know that years ago, someone was thinking of making a life, a little less hectic when doing chores, jobs, by hand, then with love, patience, understanding, a formation, an equation came into view, then viola, a product of human usage was formed.
Yes,...

The Absurdity of Gayness
Let us seriously consider the absurdity of gayness.
Gay men only have sexual relations with men,
Yet masculine-like and feminine-like gay men exist.
The masculine-like gay men desire the feminine-like gay men,
And the feminine-like gay men desire the masculine-like gay men.
Gays want the world to tolerate this kind of lunacy.
Gay men do not want to have sex with women.
So why do they have sex with men who behave like women?
What do sane people have to say about this?
Men who behave like women are definitely not women.
Would it...

The Burning Man...
" On the ground! " was screamed at the man in flames
the police were baffled at what could be done,
" get down on the ground !" was screamed yet again
Their guns pointing as the man writhed in pain
why should they care it's not their Bro' or son
" on the ground! " was screamed at the man in flames,
I guess the policemen felt kinda lame
a burning man is no threat to anyone,
" but, down on the ground! " was screamed yet again
Burning tendons stretched his hands up in vain
there...

watch your six...
I'm not much
...at first glance
quiet
plain Jane
just a house mouse
past my youth
so they ignore me
look right past...
counting me out of the fight
...fools
let me tell you
what this disregarded observer sees
while they're overlooking little ol' me
knowledge is power...
so they stunt our education
making it easier to spoon feed the masses
lies they've disguised as reality
pap with no actual nutrients
the sheep will eat it up
& ask for seconds
they view diversity... ...

Footnotes Knocking
Of innuendos and footnotes knocking
a shadow at my door harmonizing
like a ghost on a carousel
riding a pony, crucified frog notes
of innuendos and footnotes
a shadow at my door harmonizing
like a ghost on a carousel
riding a pony, crucified frog notes
of innuendos and footnotes

Not Lost
When a scream betrays secrets
and demons swallow the night
never doubt the love of life
still shines forever in your heart
Be braver
brave enough to drag
bold fragments of your soul
through ruin of despair
to find another
then another breath
as effortless as time
embracing cold certainty
straddling the hour
until warmth of expectation
bestows forgiveness
so that peace may once more flourish
feeding hope
to nourish dawn's new light
and demons swallow the night
never doubt the love of life
still shines forever in your heart
Be braver
brave enough to drag
bold fragments of your soul
through ruin of despair
to find another
then another breath
as effortless as time
embracing cold certainty
straddling the hour
until warmth of expectation
bestows forgiveness
so that peace may once more flourish
feeding hope
to nourish dawn's new light

No Clear Understanding

Stripped Naked
For many people
Home Truths
Are the most Dangerous
Things
They will meet
For Home Truths
Have a Nasty Habit
Like Acid
Of Stripping Away
What you Thought
You Are
Where The Pain
Will strip you down
To Your Bones

Pyromaniac
they say
it's not cool to have empathy
watching human beings
being targeted and dehumanized
like Nazi Germany
hope is so last season
and equality is seen as unfair
to who?
the very suppressors
I burn bridges
like a pyromaniac
don't need no Mr. "I listen to both sides"
tell that to the families ripped apart
life is hard enough without that shit
bring me your sick?
sorry liberty
you've been tied up and gagged
and left for dead
yeah, mercy is just not cool
sorry Jesus ...

painting the moment
the doors slams
.you are gone
.
the air falls to
the floor defeated
and the roses on
the table can no
longer laugh

Vale America
I asked God if the American empire was murdered by an enemy.
He said, without a single tear in his all seeing eyes.
" America died by suicide not murder."
No further explanation was required.
