Seekers Of Destruction
What I say I don't do with scorn
But the Egyptians used trigonometry thousands of years before Pythagoras was born
The seekers of the way saw that knowledge was needed
So they traveled the face of the planet trying to feed it
Man, hahaha is indeed a strange creature
Being wasteful is but one of his many features
Food, resource, ability, and even precious human life
Man has a blatant disregard for human life
Let me hit you in the mouth with a little bit of the truth
Who else would pay there farmers not to produce
Babies...

The Worst of the Worst
Members of a cabal
Their poem banal
Egotistical arrogant shites
Creating drama and fights
Thinking that their shit don't stink
Sycophant fans, a nod and a wink
A self-promoting tribe
Unable to properly scribe
They talk a good game
But they're clearly insane
Narcissistic, psychopathic loons
The beat their chests like baboons
Strangers to humility
A website's liability
They attack now in packs
Greiveiously mental attacks
Ignore, block and insult
This hateful group...

Closing Books
Some times closing a good book
Brings sadness that it is finished
Books we close gently and fondly
They talk to us even after they close
And, in time we may re-open them
Reading again, from the beginning
Despite knowing the ending already
I don't believe in book burning
I still have a copy of Mein Kampf
Sitting uneasily in between the
Bible, the Satanic Bible and the Koran
On the same shelves sits Steinbeck
Poe, Shelly, Spike Milligan, Bukowski
I have very catholic tastes and needs
Currently reading Dr Jordan...

The Wall
Mr. Gorbachev tear this wall down"
Were words heard and celebrated all around
The division of a country was affecting the world
To watch the hatred associated with boundaries was causing human relations to unfurl
We built a great wall of China and refused to learn shit
They invented lots of things and then they forgot all about it
Inter boundary warring also made written history a problem
The world was battling problems and didn't know that they had solved them
But being humans we continue to do what we do
We next built...

Rainbow Prophecy 2020
Everyday it’s possible to realize
That the plane of your existence
Can be divided into quadrants.
They speak of wind, earth, fire and water
Did you know there’s more?
It’s there even when your eyes are closed.
You feel it when you stand outside
An open field is best
Or deep inside a neighbor-wood
You’ve walked and walked
Observed the path
Then you stop
You listen
Close your eyes
To the right you hear the birds
To the left, you hear the trees
Ahead you hear the laughter
And behind the roar of the people ...
That the plane of your existence
Can be divided into quadrants.
They speak of wind, earth, fire and water
Did you know there’s more?
It’s there even when your eyes are closed.
You feel it when you stand outside
An open field is best
Or deep inside a neighbor-wood
You’ve walked and walked
Observed the path
Then you stop
You listen
Close your eyes
To the right you hear the birds
To the left, you hear the trees
Ahead you hear the laughter
And behind the roar of the people ...

Liberty’s Legs Are Spread
Through the sickness and the slaughter
they are your sons & daughters
Sipping survival like Flint Water
just enough to get by
tongues out to the sky
hoping the clouds don’t dry
I Tell you
when you tip the well
wish them well first
this goes beyond thirst
progress reversed
American soil soaked in sweat and sin
borders death and grim
the levee broke
are we really woke?

Is It Cheaper To Keep Her?
Is it cheaper to keep her
when the writing's on the wall?
no text, no call
more than the start
closer to the fall
the spring has lost a step
and the battery has run
down, down
drained of it's heart
and of it's hope
one more minute please
just let me see
where your juices set me free
no ties
no tears
time to cut the cord
after all these years
when the writing's on the wall?
no text, no call
more than the start
closer to the fall
the spring has lost a step
and the battery has run
down, down
drained of it's heart
and of it's hope
one more minute please
just let me see
where your juices set me free
no ties
no tears
time to cut the cord
after all these years

a little box of hatred
Hate corrodes the container
that it comes in
And haters do their rotting
from within...
Like an ulcer eats the lining
of your stomach
hate poisons spleen, brain, spine...
goes on to gnaw on bone and skin.
Before long a hater resembles..."The Picture of Dorian Grey"
that it comes in
And haters do their rotting
from within...
Like an ulcer eats the lining
of your stomach
hate poisons spleen, brain, spine...
goes on to gnaw on bone and skin.
Before long a hater resembles..."The Picture of Dorian Grey"

A Horse With No Saddle
I'm ready with a pen
For the enemy within
It takes ten of me to begin
There's invisible people
Living in evil
I ll throw a crow at a chair
In order to know the despair
That's straight up grown like a 🍐 pear
I hold like a vise
And transform any mobile device
Seeking to fuse control of the eyes
There inside me, I gottem
The should have been arriving in autom
They disguise them as rotton
