[ CC ] The Only Opinion That Matters
The pain from violence
committed against you
and your body
will eventually end
but only when you refrain from
asphyxiating your poor pores
with layers of toxic make-up
grilling your hair into burnt
curly fries with hot irons
ripping pubes from crotch
in barbaric fashion trend
bleaching our sensitive
little puckered friend
the anus
I assure you
there are men and women
and...

A Catalyst for Change
Perhaps as I’ve gotten older
And have seen what the world can offer,
I’ve been a little more optimistic in life,
Not just for myself, but especially those surrounding me.
By pushing myself to be more positive,
My enthusiasm can probably become contagious (viral if you will)
So that more and more people can begin to see the brighter side of things.
By changing my thinking,
I know I can become a better man,
A better father,
Son,
Brother,
Poet,
I can improve in so many areas in my personal life and career,
My actions...

No Defence for the Defence Industry
The so-called “Defence” Industry is a $1.8Trillion Dollar Industry.
Did you clock that?
1.8 trillion dollar’s worth of activity hell bent on destruction:
infrastructure, governments, agriculture, people’s houses, jobs.
Jobs? Don’t those in favour of the so-called “Defence Industry”
keep reminding us how many jobs are provided by the …
… well let’s call a spade a spade … by the War Industry?
Have you ever thought how many jobs are destroyed by the War Industry,
how many livelihoods, self-employed, small-time farmers, shop-owners
small...

[ CC ] Musical Chairs
Keep going
---you're almost there
soon arriving at destination
in your personal chariot
or occupying a designated chair
with your name already on it
It may not seem like so
at the current moment
as if you've gone nowhere -
caught in a fishbowl undertow
which is a perfectly normal
feeling to have before an
actual difference is
experienced
Effort acknowledged
is equal to validation---
a receipt in...

WHAT KEEPS ME GOING
( after Agnes Török )
Justice:
or the thought thereof—
its very existence
an experience of hope—
that thing
you almost forgot
while suffering
its grave counterpart;
so liberating its truth
you are almost too afraid
to accept
it is what you deserve—
it’s fairies
sending you to sleep
with dreams again;
a prodigal son
being...
