LiveLeak
They say the good die young, so I never misbehave.
Self destructive living, I got one foot in the grave.
Suicidal thoughts hover over me like rain clouds.
Burdens on my shoulders weighing heavy like my chains now.
Never without my necklaces unless I'm in a moshpit.
One day, I'm colorblock. Next day: gothic.
They say it's bipolar. I just wanna buy posh fits.
'Cause I wouldn't wanna be caught dead not flawless.
So I'm always dolled up in case death surprise me,
I can be the flyest dead body up on LiveLeak.
Self destructive living, I got one foot in the grave.
Suicidal thoughts hover over me like rain clouds.
Burdens on my shoulders weighing heavy like my chains now.
Never without my necklaces unless I'm in a moshpit.
One day, I'm colorblock. Next day: gothic.
They say it's bipolar. I just wanna buy posh fits.
'Cause I wouldn't wanna be caught dead not flawless.
So I'm always dolled up in case death surprise me,
I can be the flyest dead body up on LiveLeak.

Red Cum
Red Cum
On the butt cheeks of the savior
Lying on the rocks
Weeping softly
Sobbing gentle as the forest brook
Station after station
He fell and he rose
Now he’s lying there
With anal woes
Who done this to Jesus
Son of the true God
Who hath forsaken the Christ child
On this unholy Monday
Jesus reads my thoughts
With his holy telepathy
Like Charles Xavier with hair
Who fucked your savior?
Shall I tell thee little lamb?!?
He slipped me a note
And vanished in smoke
I woke up in bed ...
On the butt cheeks of the savior
Lying on the rocks
Weeping softly
Sobbing gentle as the forest brook
Station after station
He fell and he rose
Now he’s lying there
With anal woes
Who done this to Jesus
Son of the true God
Who hath forsaken the Christ child
On this unholy Monday
Jesus reads my thoughts
With his holy telepathy
Like Charles Xavier with hair
Who fucked your savior?
Shall I tell thee little lamb?!?
He slipped me a note
And vanished in smoke
I woke up in bed ...

Pride
A hunter prides his trophy kill,
While mother nature mourns a loss.
He selfishly fulfills his thrill,
At another creature’s cost.
How very tough, you are,
Killing in the name of fun!
A lion never stood a chance
Against a semi-automatic gun.
And then you have the gall
To mount its head upon your wall,
To glorify your ignorance—
I'm horrified and appalled.
You’ll make your lion rugs,
While you rape the lion cubs
Of a home they’ll never have,
And a mother’s lion love.
Celebrating...
While mother nature mourns a loss.
He selfishly fulfills his thrill,
At another creature’s cost.
How very tough, you are,
Killing in the name of fun!
A lion never stood a chance
Against a semi-automatic gun.
And then you have the gall
To mount its head upon your wall,
To glorify your ignorance—
I'm horrified and appalled.
You’ll make your lion rugs,
While you rape the lion cubs
Of a home they’ll never have,
And a mother’s lion love.

Is This Prescience
And all the mud brick houses have
Staring eyes,
Blinking in the haze of their mugwort
Billows,
Wafted with some
Religious pomp,
Toward the four
Corners
And the wind heralds a thousand
Clinical
Suicides
An hour,
Rounded up or down,
To a pleasingly
Symmetrical
Number
And the tattered flesh flag
Flails a prescription drug
Infomercial at the
Tidal arm,
Images of families
And foliage
And a pleasantly vapid
Disclaimer of
Collateral ...

LOST AND FOUND (10-24-19, 2:00pm, Palm Springs, California)
momentarily
overwhelmed
stuck adrift
in some funky
melancholic
static emotional limbo
from my own
perception
of all
the seeming
near constantly
increasing
further daily evidence
of the extinction
of simplicity
in my life
in life in general
overall
these days
throughout this
our over pillaged
mortally sickened world
so i asked myself
reflectively
where am i
amid all of this
here presently really at
beneath behind

No Rest
Capitalism is a cult.
The cult of buying to
Fulfill your dreams
An unending
Ever illusionary
Illusive dream
Searcher of pretty things
Promised to you
By all in the cult
The crazy thing is
You all
believe in it
No matter what you say
No matter what
you all tell me
You're a believer in the pretty
Man made things
The new car
The new clothes
The new house
The new, the new
You're a lying fuck!
Seriously, you lie to yourself ...

Fulfill your dreams

Truth Be Told
I really feel the need to get away from consumerism and materialism. From the wealthy corporations, busy cities, and billionaires; the fast food industries, tech giants, and pharmaceutical companies that rule this country
—perhaps, even the world. Away from this destructive machine that humanity has created... And the restless blur of a society that never sleeps.
We are supposedly "the greatest country on Earth", yet we are divided more than ever; and clearly the system that we have in place is broken, yet the mad maestros continue to conduct this cacophony of sound right...
