Whose your god now
My god is black steel

The Night Before
You pay attention long enough
keep your ears open
and mouth shut
there will be truths
that haunt you
as ghosts
You’ll be in a grocery store
or a social gathering
and such a truth emerges
wrapping around your ear canal
until the tunnel of listening
begins to close
No one you know
will be able to reach
the deepest chamber of your heart
sitting amid all that silence
She leans over and says
"Such a shame, isn’t it?
But you know
it’s not the gun’s fault ...

Proud Boys
The far right gobshite fears to be replaced
and that's a plan that's worth a damn to me.
Then gone would be another dude disgraced
by bogus claims...of white supremacy.
The far right gobshite places all the blame
on all the folks he clearly fears the most
without avowing he himself is lame...
which nullifies his bloody stupid boast.
The far right gobshite claims a list of wrongs
from the hardships he's had to undergo...
like too much rap, and cleaning his own bongs,
or admission cost at the sportsman's show......

Nice
I thought he was nice.
Oh, that word.
But, yeah, it seemed to fit.
At first, I thought he was just lazy. A slacker.
He, along with my friend's nephew, were supposed to show up at 10 AM to help me move. The nephew called at 10:30.
"Uh, J is still sleeping. He doesn't like getting up early. I'll keep trying him."
11:45 AM: "He's awake! We should be there by 12:30."
12:30 PM: "J is moving kind of slow. But we'll be there by 1:00."
This was a 26-year-old man, not a 17-year-old...

In The Shroud Of Chaos
I’m at a loss for words
When wings are given to such beautiful young birds
In remembrance of hearing their laughter, footsteps echoed in the wind
Kindred hearts, unfulfilled dreams, aspirations, with no time to defend
The mind of Satan so freely roams
Invading subways, supermarkets, schools, and even citizens’ homes
Parents, loved ones must share in the crying of tragedy’s feast
Absence of a presence to share only hushed memories in the humbling greet
Is this God’s plan the slaughter of...

The Revenge of Atom
Eurydice, nicknamed Dizzy, was growing concerned about Edward. He was her son with David Wallace, a successful music producer in Los Angeles whose parents had operated a renowned chain of restaurants. And Dizzy herself was the daughter of a media giant and a minor aristocrat, so what infernal circumstances might have befallen young Edward, a physically and mentally healthy lad of 10 who lived most of the year not a stone’s throw from Hyde Park, were a little obscure.
But Dizzy was a sensitive woman who saw the petty cruelties of existence everywhere, from the checkout girl who gave...

The Founding Fathers common sense gun laws
Sure you can carry and carry concealed
muzzleloaders, for that real manly kick,
just like the Founding Fathers had conceived,
And the blunderbuss, yeah, it's a done deal
to blast George and his tax-collecting Brits.
sure you can carry and carry concealed
And military grade weapons just for the well heeled
your twelve-pounder, makes the neighbours look sick,
just like the Founding Fathers had conceived.
And for ladies, forged in...

Empathy For The False Prophet
Did you cast your vote for the beast who tells false prophesies?
Who casts a dark shadow erected of opulent fallacies
Erections made and paid to mistress phallus fantasies
With taxpayer dollars transferred to lands with strange currencies
As the virus greed infects love with the hunger of his lustful needs
But what is love to an empty heart filled with silver coins it bleeds
He can't be Lucifer for he was never an angel to fall from grace
Though his only empathy is for the seven sins that construct the sly grin upon his face
Murderer most fowl...

He can't be Lucifer for he was never an angel to fall from grace
Though his only empathy is for the seven sins that construct the sly grin upon his face
