Revolution
Let me be clear about this there are no longer mainstream media outlets that you can trust to eve take an attempt at truth. The wouldn't know the truth is it jumped up and pimp slapped them. None of the mainstream media are exempt from this. We don't have Journalists and more just clickbait prostitutes for hire to the biggest bidder. CNN and Fox are just two cheeks of the same arse.
but these media outlets lead a pandemic of lies and false information that is majorly infectious. All multimedia platforms are no doing the same thing, banning, censoring, and hiding behind algorithms....

Heel to the Chief
We live in America
where freedom to critique
our politicians is abundant
Those of you from
other countries — chime in!
Be pontificating or punting
pundits
And don't tread lightly—
grow yourself a pair—
throw a shoe ( or two )
while you can, of course
before Donald Trump decides
to issue an exective order declaring
shoesmakers be held liable
for demonstrations of disgust
should a direct hit leave
our Commander in Chief
with a lasting impression
of your soles
...

#Black Lives Matter
Black Lives Matter demanding voices to be
I hope as the writer you come to feel me
And of course, your life matters too
As an embodied society protect my human rights, give me my just due
Police brutally has always plagued the humanity of the black race
From DWB, racial profiling, to the spray of facial Mace
Illustrating the hushed concept
Your life is less than mine this will be forgiven, behind my badge American citizens shall soon forget
Your fallacies to judge presence, not upon skin color as a body who stands ...

A Note From a Special Adviser
Don’t think of my journey, my secret escape,
My rush to the country despite the red tape,
Driving my car like a half-rabid ape.
This special adviser’s a keeper.
Don’t think of my silence when Ferguson fell,
The gaps in the story my wife chose to tell,
Whilst knowing that I had been selfish as hell,
Ignoring the graph getting steeper.
I merely left town without telling the boss,
The Cabinet Sec. or the junior dross.
Missing her birthday would make my wife cross,
Don’t forget I’m a terrible creeper.
Forget that our...

silence speaks...
silence rang the bell that day
a hollow broken sound
torn forlorn from begging throat
hard pressed
between desperation
and aspect most unforgiving
yet another cry gone unheeded
darkness claims another light
as hatred's brush paints a sudden void
where once breathed tones of vibrant life
stunned pause
...before the storm
a rise of red now sweeps the screen
so weary of fighting what should never have been
sick & tired
furious
but unsurprised
why does this keep happening? ...

Rent Strike Information
Are you going to dig your own grave, climb down into it and wait to die, or are you going to fight with every breath for something better for yourself and your children, and your children’s children? If that’s not inspiring, I don’t know what is.
(Disclaimer: There’s no extreme erotica in this piece just extreme political information. Also, if you know what a rent strike is this is not the piece for you.)
I am neither advocating or against a rent strike, I want to explain what it is and why people would advocate a rent strike. I will start by explaining the word:...

Judge
Physically decomposing
But somehow still knowing
Life doesn't end
Because the blood stops flowing
The answer's in the knowing
My conscience starts reloading
The unseen is showing
And what I see is the world corroding
Fresh from the grave smelling of sex
Death is my friend, why show respect
Who needs a friend that can't be used
Mentally robbed, physically abused
Time is a tool that I use like a switch
Put me into a grave and I flip the bitch
Dripping pussy as my body defrost
My soul was lost, but...

Chinese Democracy!
boys, my son's age
on the frontline
lazer beams guide them home
tears shed
bombs fired
tech hides them
and finds them
five G watches
mothers with their babies pray
i'm screaming
screaming
they're KILLING THEM
sky news special
Chinese murdering
Honk Kong boys
fighting for freedoms
against tyranny
it leaked here
let's hope the people's China
the one my Guru calls home
and so, is my heart's home
sobs
please don't kill more boys
i thought we'd done with war? ...

Planted Knowledge
Some people are on the streets because they are disgusted with the system
A system that continually uses their brains and abilities to maintain the status quo
They've given the rest of society their ass and requested that we kiss them
For getting on our knees like whores and bowing to a god that we truly don't know
They watch from their post as we silently obeys
Not realizing that we're doing what the man behind the king says
Not only sacrificing ourselves but also our first born
Without anyone taking the time to mend a rift, that was long ago...

Politicking
Not so much during the day
But I can hear it nightly
When I pull the covers over my head
And I close my eyes tightly
I'm beckoned to come near
But warned to tread lightly
I see dripping fangs
But no they don't ever want to bite me
I'm offered to converse ever so politely
One eye is revealed showing his armies mighty
A political structure designed to enticed me
Us against them is how he spliced thee
The Haves from the Have Nots keeping things spicey
The Haves are pleased but the Have Nots are fiesty
They...

Presidential Intentions
The gasping for air
Brings me face to face with despair
the slightest release is instantly felt
I finally can see how the cards were dealt
I'm the lowest hand, the bottom of the deck
A motherfucker destined to fail, no disrespect
Took to the brink and shown things I shouldn't see
Bitches smiling and laughing, but none are with me
Did I ask for this shit or pray to be
An unwanted gift, or was I simply a penalty
How dare two broken kids try to comfort each other
Just fuck them up more, making them father and mother ...

Profiteers
Democracy is a concept derived in 510 B.C.
It has became nothing but a tool if you look at history
Each fucking year the word has became more perverse
That's why bitches at the podium has to be so dam rehearsed
A government by the people, for the people, is just words said
I can control your whole body if you allow me into your head
You'll do my work and fight my wars of profit
What part of ten percent that your ass don't get
Every two to four years you're in the booth playing the slots
When the electoral college has already been...
