Raphium Series~big brother
elitist thinking in the land of the Nod
instilling fear in the hearts of the peoples
divided more than ever
the rift is getting bigger no matter what they say
brainwashed to believe we should be unisex and of a race so mixed
there is no definition or culture
beauty is subjective it's crammed down our throats
I'm speaking from a point of discontent
we are erasing history, altering it pretending it doesn't exist
it makes me sick
the ones pulling the strings sit in comfort
I live in a state where people are pulling up stakes and leaving
too expensive to stay too poor to leave I'm stuck
hoorah it's escape from LA
I feel fear flood me as the cities get even more dangerous
beautiful places taken over by lawlessness
murder is rising
as we become less connected to humanity than ever
technology our big brother

i understand speaking from a point of discontent; i can hardly believe it, but we're on the cusp of theocracy. books are being banned. fear of societal and personal evolution is lighting fires to burn all the ungodly witches. having faith has allowed me to accept others; yet i will attack oppression as the disease it is. 34 years in LA and i'm still not being solicited to become unisex. the sexuality spectrum has expanded, it seems, but that's not something i feel i can judge. we should all be encouraged to speak our truths - thought police are the real danger, as i see it. i am also in favor of mixing the colors, which i believe is not incompatible with celebrating different cultures. i'll repeat these spoken words of wisdom, 'let it be.'

I'm against the stripping of culture I think it should be celebrated in all it's diversities I just see things coming I can't explain it and it disturbs me...I am a witch who believes in God but some things are just too dark even for me...thank you for your thoughts 💕

Not sure why the world hasn't gotten more complicated over time, however many facets have to come light in the era of technology. There are more diseases, there is more awareness, there is a wider spectrum of things and for some reason, people have the need to fall within some definition in order to check a box. The answer is not simple, it never is, and somehow one action will have a string of consequences for years to come. I loved living in L.A. but it was getting to expensive, too crowded. 45 minutes to drive 9 miles? The cost of living going up?
Just the other day I found out my childhood home, a small 2 bedroom 1 bathroom, is now worth a million dollars.

hello dearest Wally I'm not sure entirely what is troubling me well, when I wrote this...my Aunt lived in Malibu and I loved it there I loved the whole LA scene but lately it seems places especially the bigger cities are getting dangerous...my hometown of Fresno is not the same place I remember when I go there the spirit has changed... I don't know... maybe it's just me that has changed... thank you for your thoughts here ❤️
