The Slaughter at the Water's Edge
The drought had dried up most of the lakes and rivers,
Fire, it seemed, had consumed most of the vegetation,
The animals made the arduous journey across the plains,
In search for water and food, or else face starvation.
The masses followed the donkeys at first to the mountains,
But the animals didnt like the difficult and dangerous path,
So, they followed the giant elephants through the desert,
But then felt the unforgiving heat and the wilderness wrath.
And every time they came to a watering hole theyd find hope,
But the elephants...

murals for morals
You call it grafiti
but I call it art
you say it's pollution
but I say it is the heart
of the community themselves
muralizing the walls
to visualize the intention
to moralize the halls
of the governor
the government
the senators
and establishment.
(unfinished?)

Broken Goverments
Goverments are broken
because of the Covid 19 Era
We need to fix this now
Because we are living in
Newton's 3rd Law: Aftermath
Which is of has destroyed
small businesses because
of the frenzy and our
goverments try to help
but they are stuck
within the corruption
of the system
So when are the
machines taking over
to bring us into
Judgement Day
because of the Covid 19 Era
We need to fix this now
Because we are living in
Newton's 3rd Law: Aftermath
Which is of has destroyed
small businesses because
of the frenzy and our
goverments try to help
but they are stuck
within the corruption
of the system
So when are the
machines taking over
to bring us into
Judgement Day

Age of the Goverments Machines
Goverments are corrupted
because they have their
secret labs where they
test out diseases to find
a cure so do we have the
vaccine/cure for Covid 19
I hope so because we
have traded our lives in
for our own safety
Now to which devil
will win for president
will he do a great job
who the hell knows
Will the machines take over
I hope not we
need to fix our
Broken Corrupted Goverments
because they have their
secret labs where they
test out diseases to find
a cure so do we have the
vaccine/cure for Covid 19
I hope so because we
have traded our lives in
for our own safety
Now to which devil
will win for president
will he do a great job
who the hell knows
Will the machines take over
I hope not we
need to fix our
Broken Corrupted Goverments

The Pendulum Swings
The choir sings
As the pendulum swings
From good and evil and back again
And the people cheer both ways
As the pendulum sways
From the righteous into a world of sin
Righteous indignation
Screws our nation
With a push from the left and the right
And the pendulum swings
And the sharp blade stings
As we lay in our beds for the night
As the pendulum swings
From good and evil and back again
And the people cheer both ways
As the pendulum sways
From the righteous into a world of sin
Righteous indignation
Screws our nation
With a push from the left and the right
And the pendulum swings
And the sharp blade stings
As we lay in our beds for the night

Our police are running rampant...
Our police are running rampant..
over rights sworn to uphold.
Every nut case in the nation
is rushing to unfold
the latest lethal weapon
It's an 'orror to behold.
And who do we thank for getting us...
into this frightful mess?
Why, it's obese orange Cheeto-man clothed in fancy dress.
over rights sworn to uphold.

Biden Science Matters
Science is political
questions begged by
and asked by
dominant voices
Eugenics
politics
criminal psychology
even climate change
feeds a holy grail
standing accused of racism
and while his constituents
say black lives matter
he says science matters
...what a tool

Mother Earth Cries For Turkey
Dünya sana sesleniyor
bitmeyen bir şarkı
sessizlik geçişinizi teklif etmek
zafere
Anavatan yatağında
o mücadele ediyor
Barış için ağlıyor
vatan onun özgürlüğünü savunur
ve onun insanları
Atalarının senden önceki yürüyüşlerinin gücü
Yiğitlik kılıcınızı zafer kalkanınızı ve hakikat zırhınızı kaldırırken herkese ilan edin
Hayatlarını kar için takas etmeye...

Sale Ending Soon
Oh, the options we are given,
In the land of justice & liberty!
Pick one, pick one!
Don't give a second glance at these!
A grumpy old man,
Or a forgetful old man,
A man with hands
that crave wealth and power,
Or a man with hands
he can't keep off your daughter.
One will influence the CDC for vanity,
The other, influenced by a figure behind the scenes.
Oh my, oh my,
What will it be?
A booming economy with dirty seas?
Or plunging stock market with more mouths to feed? ...

Cynical Musings
Keep on asking for handouts without realizing the fee
Nothing in this world ever comes for fuckin free
As one cannot create nor destroy energy
Nor should one be able to take nothing and create currency
Yet here we sit, in crisis, overpopulated and overwhelmed
Building up our walls as the worlds armies mutate and swell
Ready to face the fact that humans will group to survive
Then kill whomever has more to eat and drink on the other side
But sure
Let's all pretend this election is all thats at stake
War is probably the only thing...

THE DYING LION
Once a king on green and white In the jungle's West
When once you roar the Jackals quake as far as East
Who would dare when you sleep to cross your den?
The world eagle of the west would beg now and then
At age seven the hyenas rose to tear the den into two
Almost all you killed them off, assuming: that will do
To western coast with your pride, wolves were tamed
Over the world your cubs excel, you can't be shamed
But now your roar goes no farther than your den
With much blood, e'en of your cubs, you've got a wen
Much festering...

Over the world your cubs excel, you can't be shamed
But now your roar goes no farther than your den
With much blood, e'en of your cubs, you've got a wen
