Too Much
Too much of a good thing isn't good for any of us
At least that's what they say
Too much of a good thing can kill a person
Too much drugs
Too much alcohol
Too much food
Too much sex
Too much fame
They uphold that motto even when it gets to close to the truth
I suppose too much truth leads to too much loneliness
And we all know too much of that isn't good at all.

Reverberated
Tired of all the voices spreading false hope
Got their fingers crossed behind their back
Still some people kept on feeding them rope
Everyone will hang with the remaining slack
When someone pardons their entire family
Before the first crime has been perpetrated
Catastrophic times bring forth this calamity
Curses screamed disapproval reverberated

Last Rainbow
I am the rainbow after your storm
The sky is not of slate grey
It is darker, unrelenting, menacing
it summons the lightning
wicked in its invention
You see it
Before you hear the destruction
You feel it
Through the concrete construction
There's no time to run from the devastation
Boom!
Crack!
Pow!
What is left now?
The sun
Peaks its head out for fun
Illuminating the particles in the sky
Seeing all the colors way up high
Wish on...
The sky is not of slate grey
It is darker, unrelenting, menacing
it summons the lightning
wicked in its invention
You see it
Before you hear the destruction
You feel it
Through the concrete construction
There's no time to run from the devastation
Boom!
Crack!
Pow!
What is left now?
The sun
Peaks its head out for fun
Illuminating the particles in the sky
Seeing all the colors way up high
Wish on...

When People Don’t Talk
When people don’t talk
The space between words widens
What’s left unsaid takes on new meaning
All the things I thought you meant
Now mean…something
And I’m left to fill in the blanks myself
Because you choose not to say anything
Maybe you think you’re protecting me
Or you’re ashamed
Or you’re angry
Or you don’t want me to have feelings for you
You might have misunderstood something I’ve said
Flawed humans mirror flawed humans
We’re all clinging to the same life raft
So we tango
But we...
The space between words widens
What’s left unsaid takes on new meaning
All the things I thought you meant
Now mean…something
And I’m left to fill in the blanks myself
Because you choose not to say anything
Maybe you think you’re protecting me
Or you’re ashamed
Or you’re angry
Or you don’t want me to have feelings for you
You might have misunderstood something I’ve said
Flawed humans mirror flawed humans
We’re all clinging to the same life raft
So we tango
But we...

molestor pester boil in oil
stroke me I think not
peddal you trike elsewhere
I farted in you
why?
you earned it
think with that
shit in your brains
take that alien
and stay the fuck away
poison ivy on you thick cock
you're empty
clashes keep your ashes
ashes ashes we all fall down
peddal you trike elsewhere
I farted in you
why?
you earned it
think with that
shit in your brains
take that alien
and stay the fuck away
poison ivy on you thick cock
you're empty
clashes keep your ashes
ashes ashes we all fall down

Don't think
I held the sun in my fingers
as I swallowed the universe.
An orange in my hand
a blueberry in my mouth.
Everything is in everything.
Can you not see that?
as I swallowed the universe.
An orange in my hand
a blueberry in my mouth.
Everything is in everything.
Can you not see that?

Icing On The Cake
The clearest thing life has to offer
Inevitably, you will live
But without any hints or tips
One day the gonna say you are late
How many dives how many lies?
I deserve one more bite of my last pie
Before I die
Diary of a born rebound guy
Who will buy?
True or fake
Death's the icing on any cake
Do you actually know what it takes?
So always sigh deep only when the day breaks
Living, wondering when it is my due date
Let's set
But I need nor bet
We have never met
Before, but we will all die...
Inevitably, you will live
But without any hints or tips
One day the gonna say you are late
How many dives how many lies?
I deserve one more bite of my last pie

True or fake
Death's the icing on any cake
Do you actually know what it takes?
So always sigh deep only when the day breaks
Living, wondering when it is my due date
Let's set
But I need nor bet
We have never met
Before, but we will all die...

Watch and see
I'll end the war in Ukraine
within the first 24 hours
if elected president
Trump said
Day 21:
Russian troops push
toward Pokrovsk
as we speak
Trump remains silent
far too busy raging war
on our democracy
to maintain control:
commuting his militia
—J6 insurrectionists—
who'll beat police officers
and the national guard,
replacing qualified personnel
with predators and drunks
he deems loyalists,
cancelling health research
education...

Our Future Baby … ( Box Heads )
Yeah
I’m back with those guys
Did I ever leave ?
But now there’re weirder than ever
Reflecting modern times
Soon they will control you and me
Once AI gets a hold of them
Scary thought
Embrace them now while they are friends
Feed them love
That’s their only need
A hand job maybe on their birthday
Intimacy is not necessarily their calling
Yet we keep coming back to them
I do anyway
Their creator and mentor
Box Heads
Sexy in a dystopian kind of way
Everything is sex

This sounds fishy
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ WHAT I would like to do is have a intelligent conversation of right and wrong. For sure how many of us who have known, someone who has been killed by the blue 🧱 of silence over the years. 😔 For isn't it kind of strange, that those who were pardon and released mysteriously come to an unexpected crime of death,🤔 from the January six of the chaos and drama, that became world news around the world. 🌍 For here we go again another person was killed, by the blue wall 🧱 of silence. YET we can't...

Feminism
When you allow an entire team of guys,
To manipulate you,
Into harassing another female.
And you wonder why she laughs at you,
And won't be your friend,
Or friends with the people,
You call friends,
Who clearly aren't your friends.
You were just too stupid to notice.
It's nice to see you,
Finally get what's coming to you.
I'm sure your "friends"
Are so upset,
They spend more time with me now. Lol
