Silenced Violence
I didn’t know grief had a sound, until it echoed in the silence after the gunshot.
How could something so final, so brutal, happen so fast?
The tears felt so heavy but were pointless. Nothing could remove your bloodstain in the dirt.
I screamed at the ground, but the earth didn’t care,
So, I cursed at the heavens demanding he be spared.
The truth is we stand in a shooting range, and no one even flinches when the bullets start flying.
As kids play on the playground, which would soon be their graveyard.
Like bodies hitting the ground is just background...

Check The Bishops Mate!
An arch bishop of Canterbury,
did not tell
Of John Smyth, who came from
some place in hell
Who regularly abused
young boys
Yet Justin Welby
made the choice
Of withholding evidence,
which deserves time in jail!

THE HAUNTING
A child's fragile frame, curled tight on the ground,
Silent cries echo, but make no sound.
A vulture waits, patient, cold, and near,
In the heart of despair, death hovers here.
Empty bellies, hollow eyes, too weak to fight,
Life fades slowly under fading light.
The world looks on through a captured lens,
Yet their hunger, their pain—when does it end?
Kevin's eyes, heavy with grief,
Held the burden beyond belief.
A prize in hand, but a heart lost deep,
In shadows where haunted memories creep.
For all who saw, did you...
Silent cries echo, but make no sound.
A vulture waits, patient, cold, and near,
In the heart of despair, death hovers here.
Empty bellies, hollow eyes, too weak to fight,
Life fades slowly under fading light.
The world looks on through a captured lens,
Yet their hunger, their pain—when does it end?
Kevin's eyes, heavy with grief,
Held the burden beyond belief.
A prize in hand, but a heart lost deep,
In shadows where haunted memories creep.
For all who saw, did you...

The Crushed-Velvet Faux-Leather Bourgeois Baby
The Crushed-Velvet Faux-Leather Bourgeois Baby
And we found each other on the streets of Prague in the midst of a spring that rivaled that of ancient Ireland. Yet it was not a season such as Beltane but rather freedom from the polished boots of the Red Star. But when the Soviet tanks rolled in liberty was the rose that found refuge in our boudoir where hearts still blossomed while youth festooned rifle barrels with the flower of peace.
Her eyes were small as raindrops in the mists of dawn as she faced the tanks with the bourgeois decadence of wearing her faux...

Wishes
We, I IS ME would like to say election season greeting to any and all participants here on DUP
To all of those that have based your political decisions on any type of prejudice we truly pray that you receive all that you vote for.
The thing about hate is it can often return and slap you in the face, think Roe V Wade
Hate is the gift that keeps on giving
Now this is about supporting one party or the other we believe you're screwed regardless but who's going to screw you the least.
Men wanting control and rights back over women
Some people wanting control...

Injustices
I shall not be blind to injustices, to see that I live comfortably,as it tramples humanity. I say I see to much to be quiet, so I throw my voice into the ocean of injustices to cause ripples, create waves to drown it out. How can I sit quietly as my heart screams out. No Justice no peace, so there is no Justice so I have no peace of mind. Picket signs and riots yelling in my head. If you are quiet in the face of injustices, you hide your face behind the face of comfortability. And if you find comfort in your heart as injustices, stomps at your door. Than you are the face of injustice. In the...

Just curious
So I keyed in -
" The evil trump has done ". ai provided ALL the rest
Based on the search results, here are some instances where Trump’s
actions, words, or policies have been described as “evil” or exhibiting
harmful, intolerant, and divisive behavior:
Fostering a culture of intolerance and prejudice: Trump supporters’ emails
and statements showcased a deep-seated fear and dislike of people of color,
immigrants, and those perceived as “other.”
This rhetoric has been linked to a rise in hate crimes and discrimination. ...

deaf, dumb & blind...
are we now to become
no more than yesterday's phantasms?
specters drifting across a barren landscape
too foolish to pay any heed to the errors of our fathers
or the fallout from every previous foul deed
those men who valiantly fought or tragically fell
directed by a madman's selfish hand
where they were gathered
& ruthlessly enslaved
countless numbers completely erased
living now only the nightmares of a few surviving souls
mourning their unforgotten existence
where memories lie buried in unmarked mass graves

You let this happen
The namesakes’ flesh to be ripped by hidden claw,
Revealed at the behest of the man on the platform.
Impersonal business, devoid. Edicts not to be compromised.
Who could stay a killer’s hand?
It was not the lion that roamed the land.
Babylon. Salvation. Now an eye is on the eastern shore.
Part of a scheme for the human platform.
Personal business, retribution, every woman and child alive.
He sends intelligence back to the base,
Automate the planned disgrace.
Dreaming. The seeded clouds of the starry north,

Post Traumatic
Post Traumatic forgive me if I seem a bit dramatic. I can't breathe but I am not asthmatic. I have someone knee pressing down on my neck. Kill on sight just because my skin is not white so my wrongful death is automatic.
Don't get me wrong this is not a black mans anger. It's just I am aware if a police officer is in fear for their life. That's a black man's danger. Police brutality is far from a black man's stranger. They say I am not a man. They call me a thug, or a black gang banger.
Why you roll your window up when I walk by? Tuck your pocket book in, yet you have...

Square One
The darkness is moving across the skies
Baal pulled me by the ear and screamed all of these bitches lied
Just look at the shit that I don't even have to fucking try
The fucking forgotten is returning and evil is back on the rise
All levels of government are broken becoming tokens
Openly showing their greed and you think that they're joking
It isn't just about keeping them poor but and then the poor gives us more
Politics is but one of our tools, no more than art fucking decor
Just choose the fucking topic and we can hit'em where it's...
