The National Anthem Remade
Oh, say is that man still president
After trafficking children and women with Epstein
Whose white power and privileges brought down protesters
So the land that we "love" will be burned to ashes
And the tear gasses' trail the peacefulness turned hell
Gave proof through the night that America is doomed
Oh say does that government want more control over us
It's the land of the oppressed and the home of the powerless
After trafficking children and women with Epstein
Whose white power and privileges brought down protesters
So the land that we "love" will be burned to ashes
And the tear gasses' trail the peacefulness turned hell
Gave proof through the night that America is doomed
Oh say does that government want more control over us
It's the land of the oppressed and the home of the powerless

Middle class hero
Freedom is money, money is Freedom..
Without it you are lost, you loose yourself with it..
Wherever you find happiness thats where you get it.
Im just a middle class hero with just enough resources to make The hamsterwheel spin around.
Im a little bit to proud to make enough sound to make everybody hear, i swear, thats The worst of all my fears.
Im not good enough to make it, Im not bad enough to fail, Im just a middle class hero stuck in my own brain.
Without it you are lost, you loose yourself with it..
Wherever you find happiness thats where you get it.

“Done.”
It is over.
I am done with you.
In so many ways.
You lied to me
You hurt me
You wasted all my days.
No calls and no shows.
You broke promises and my heart.
I still forgave you every time
I thought our love was off the chart.
But I was played
Like a record
Over and over again.
Now that I think of it
You hurt me so many times
I guess you were never even really my friend.
Cuz with a friend like you
Who needs enemies?
Who needs all the grief?
You gave me your heart when it was convenient for you ...

Full Thot
How does it feel to be basic?
I wonder what it's like to be gifted life and just waste it.
Let's face it; that's you, is it not?
You done gone full thot, and your secret is out.
Guess you needed the attention. Sold yourself for some clout.
Now, you'd kill for a mention. What's that shit all about?
What's that shit all about? Shit, that's a serious question.
Don't act like your whole life wasn't a blessin'.
You try to be edgy to hide the guilt that you live with.
You refuse to see you're spoiled and forget that you're privileged.
Acting...

spineless
We could lie beneath the stars and dream
...dreams as big as the universe.
But like a bomb, it would come undone
and tear at the worn fabric of my heart.
As a tattered book can no longer hold
the pages of its mind
there is no spine to hold this love of mine.
The words to our story get lost
torn away by the trials of life.
You could fade into the weather
with nothing to hold us together
and I would be...

May 28, 1990
Something bad happened in 1990 on the 28th of May.
It turned out not to be such a great Memorial Day.
I saw a very beautiful girl who looked like she was sixteen or seventeen.
She was one of the most beautiful girls I had ever seen.
I wrote a note and put it in her storm door.
She was younger than I thought and her parents were pretty sore.
She was only fourteen, that was four years younger than me.
They told me to leave her alone and I agreed.
But I really liked her and it was painful not to be able to date her.
I wonder who she's with all these...

Words Overhear in the Underworld
Words Overheard in the Underworld
Words overheard in the Underworld convention,
Fighting over muffled voices, echoing cavern walls.
Hades’ voice, or Beelzebub’s,
Querying who the apex monster could be.
A fight for first place ensued, between the raging fires,
And screams of eternally tormented, anguished souls.
Demonic voices, or vampiric,
Howling loudly with depictions of evil misdeeds.
From the darkest corner stepped an old soul, wizened,
Worn over time from the study of a new breed, humanity.
He who is banged his...

Dad(Description gives you info that sheds more on the poem)
I can read, dad
Pictures aren't books
I made a friend, dad
How did that happen?
I can walk, dad
Now you learn to run
I can speak, dad
Now you get your degree
We won, dad
You struck out once
I can score, dad
$100 never will
I'm good, dad
Too small to be great
I learned to write, dad
Next, the typewriter
I got an A, dad
If you didn't then I would be ashamed
I want to talk, dad
Well, I want a clean house
I want to achieve, dad
Got a long way to go
I think I tied my shoes,...

Echoes of You
Your ghost hides in corners of our wrinkled sheets
reaching out transparent hands to grasp at my foolishness.
I've never enjoyed swimming naked in guilt's sea -
It leaves me dripping remorse.
It seems, death's formidable grip can trump a full hand
of indifference every time.
The mundane, repetitious days of our existence
held me in perspective as one
too ambivalent to shake his disembodied shoulders.
The scent of your demise to me seemed innocuous -
fleeting, and unable to bloom;
But, flowers - I've...

THE FALLING SOLDIERS
I remember those days upon the battlefield in far away lands with the images my eyes saw, that became visions embedded within the depth of my mind as soldiers bodies and blood, lay motionless upon the battlefield grounds like a pool of blood with countless DNA. Yet as the mere images still touch and pull at the very core of my heart running through my soul, for even now as I compose these unspoken words to describe the death. I have seen even being apart of the process of this war taking lives as a soldier in war, for I remember the sounds of feet running around sometimes even in the...
