illa
She still has good days amidst the bad
loves kisses on the cheek and comforting hugs
she is brittle and pliant all at once
She’s not the glass of window panes
with a clear view to the inside
She is the glass of sun catchers
complex and multifaceted
Her cancer is all consuming but you wouldn’t know it. It’s almost as if she glances over it like a signature on some hassling renter’s final rent cheque as you watch him push his glasses down his bridge to signal his intention that he’s apt to come back later and collect his belongings. ...

WW3 A Global Civil War
Fear has been planted
Hate has been spread
Poisoned by rhetoric
Of vicious words said
Lies and deception
And political theater
We defy our values
Learned from our creator
Then we light on fire
An entire city
Inhaling the fumes
Misguided toxicity
Neighbor versus neighbor
Father against son
A global civil war
The war has begun
We are constantly told
They are to blame
Our illogical thoughts
We should be ashamed
Following false shepherds ...

There were Blacks in Britain long before the Angles or Saxons ever set foot here!
By Stanley Collymore
Most whites in Britain evidently
delusionally, see themselves as
Anglo Saxons when obviously
essentially they simply aren't, and even
when simply misguidedly and basically
clearly ignorantly, obviously assuming
the Angles and Saxons were actually
just one people; when, self-evidently
they simply and undeniably weren't
but were undoubtedly two separate
and also quite disparate tribes who
although Germanic in origin, were
undeniably diametrically opposed ...

Poetry of ravens
The raven gossips,
your body is fermenting,
—calls to his brother
decorates your soul with an empty stomach
Predatory culture snips the lines of order
keeping the duo dancing to the tune of lament
One misstep and the eagle will lay claim to what the ravens have pilfered
In the folds, they have versions of dissection
They’ll strip a clean bowel for you
Preachers can’t teach the scavengers about scurry.
Or about fury and wingspan.
About enrol over dole—
throwing poise of idyllic guard into discern ...

Is the psychopathic narcissist, Elon Musk not an apartheid South African immigrant to the USA?
By Stanley Collymore
Hardly surprising then that this
racist an utterly self-control
and sociopathic moron
is backing a likeminded cretin Donald Drumpf!
An equally racist cretin, and similarly simply a
first generation American actually born in the
USA purely by accident when his yellow-belly
father, and his mother already pregnant with
him were both effectively kicked out of their
German state when Donald Drumpf senior -
the yellow-bellied cunt that he was - simply
cowardly - did all he could to avoid military ...

Nightmare Parallax
I walk the halls where shadows cling
where nothing living stirs
The walls are wet with blackened veins
that pulse with broken words
Each step I take, the ground recoils
or is it I who shift?
This place, alive with writhing thoughts
twists like a cosmic rift
A door appears, its frame a mouth
its teeth like jagged stone
It yawns, a breathless, deathless void
I enter, not alone
A figure stands, but lacks a face
its limbs a tangle, bare
It lifts its hand, but there’s no hand
just fingers made of air ...

Shhh...Silence
The Hoia Forest, known as the Bermuda Triangle of Romania, a source of every eerie, unusual activity. Trees grew with strange shapes, twisting and wriggling into the most strange forms, morphed and bent in peculiar ways, together creating a pine green canopy covering the soil with a thick blanket of merged foliage, casting shadows over the atmosphere. The swirling fog throughout the woods made it even harder to see the darkness lurking around.
Locals warned of the danger taking root in there. Many hikers, adventurers and even idiotic paranormal enthusiasts—such as myself—who find...

Funky Cold Medina - with Everavalon
On a lonely street of buckling cobblestones, time has passed by. An elderly lady moves into an old Victorian-style home across the street from an abandoned cemetery overgrown with weeds and shadows of dark clouds overhead echoing a muted pendulum as if thunder with strep throat and the trees shorn of leaves were suffering from gout. Approaching the house, she could sense that the house resented her company. With every step, the house screamed from the bottom of its throat. She thought the house, her Funky Cold Medina, aphrodisiac. a gothic order of nuns teaching the dead. The dead, the voices...

You better believe it! Iran is no pushover!
By Stanley Collymore
Israel and the USA with Britain
clearly subserviently in tow
have so collectively done
their best to try and carve up the Middle
East to distinctly, suit their selfish needs
over the last 50 years. Iraq, however, is
a different beast. Poke it and evidently
you'll automatically, undeniably bring
Pakistan into play with its discernibly
Shaheen nuclear missiles; and clearly
they are truly, beasts! The USA, Israel
and the UK know full well, you really
just cannot win...

The detrimental posturing of fanatical self-entitlement!
By Stanley Collymore
Rationally there shouldn't be
anything really to actually
fear from people who in
essence literally hold different opinions
from one's own, quite simply as long as
those opinions are discernibly rational
and quite thoroughly, sensibly worked
out; and obviously in no way, coercive,
or just evidently superficially plausible
or quite irrationally, convincing. Since
the difference of such actually overtly,
well informed opinions, can distinctly
really bring individuality and interest ...

Bullying! Let’s make it the exclusive right of the over-privileged, their flunkies and sycophants!
By Stanley Collymore
It's not right for anyone to be
bullied or equally harassed;
but why should these tech
companies decide only now to act when they
assume, that such bullying action is directed
at Kate Middleton? I didn't notice or hear any
similar demands actually coming from them
for such bullies to crucially, and significantly
discernibly desist from such awfully, odious
behaviour when the target, whom they were
focusing on was Meghan clearly an African
American woman as apart from Kate who's
