No Gods, No Masters
Into the mouth of war
Break through the walls of shadow
From the fires we will rise
Silence the ones who hide
We are the faithless! We are those who stay, nameless!
Into the gates of blackness
Now the pain is rising
Tortured, hallowed in hate!
We stand alone
Into the graves of eternity
This world fills with hate
Slowly we make our ways
The time has begun
Consumed by greed and anger
Now the time is near
Callused are the minds of the world
We hide ourselves
Consumed by fear and secrets

Everythings Fine
There are bigger things to worry about than politics or the death of democracy.
Worry about the death of kindness.
Worry about the death of compassion.
Worry about the death of decency.
Worry about the death of yourself.
Or
Don't worry at all.
Look up to the sky
Be amazed and cry.
Isn't that all we've ever wanted
To be amazed.
Worry about the death of kindness.
Worry about the death of compassion.
Worry about the death of decency.
Worry about the death of yourself.
Or
Don't worry at all.
Look up to the sky
Be amazed and cry.
Isn't that all we've ever wanted
To be amazed.

How I Feel About This Year's Election
I should have
known that it was a bad
idea to vote for who should be
our next president. At least, our soon to be former
vice president was unable to do
any crimes against her
own country.

ejected tape in DVD and stream era
Death.... Life.... one's somewhere in between; when it rains it pours, the words distort and the ink on paper bleeds; life's much like the Olympics- required to master the balance beam; I'd always automatically choose the junk food and ice cream
I'd rather die inside my sleep while dreaming blissful dreams- than waking up in this limbo land that they call "reality "

collage of dreams
half & half- lemonade-iced tea; roaming one plane of existence but yet so many- it's fair to say one believes that one's wide eyed while at the same time in a deep sleep-
where one is- versus where one really wants or feels one's being needs to be-(which would be finally on a "fixed" plane as opposed to knee deep in a collage of many dreams-
dreams- like a script before one ever made the scene- one's got a suit one wants returned but it came with no receipt-
this vehicle- driven.... only to fly up off the...

Shedding our textiles — with Adagio
Virgin husk, masking nothing but regard
Modest skin, curves like whispers
Wordless idle; endowment in flair
Nude lines no linens shall veil
And in silence, inuendoes have failed
Modesty has but our wings to sail
Shedding our textiles to prevail
Modest skin, curves like whispers
Wordless idle; endowment in flair
Nude lines no linens shall veil
And in silence, inuendoes have failed
Modesty has but our wings to sail
Shedding our textiles to prevail

Godspeed, Fellow Writer's
Propaganda got emotions running hot
Misinformation crowds an angry stage
Seems the internet can cause brain rot
Inciting the masses with constant rage
Help me understand how we got here
Political puppets are deciding our fate
It’s not a mere illusion it’s more severe
Wealthy families fighting over the gate
I’m sorry fellow poets/poetesses I had every intention of writing this poem. Maybe I did write it, maybe it’s not meant to be what I call finished.
My muse has other ideas in mind. She always gets her way, and she is...

the glitz, the glamour, the rabbit hole
glorified enclosures- everywhere there's "exposure"- a more or less comfortable road on "death row"- many potential "last meals" and poisons of choice one has chosen-
the ones' who speak about "mark of the beast" we've obviously been here many centuries already since before one's even been a thought of being conceived despite "wonderful" beliefs-
"Game Over"- from the Start- a series of Finishes- on the way to the End.... the glitz, the glamour, the rabbit hole-

My kind, your kind
For Samhain
I hear words falling in a world
pronouncing them dead,
I watch as proud little letters
slowly burn on this modern soil
as those stay at home humans
setting up tables, their lips firmly
closed, and staying small, keep
on haunting steel and stone as
they passed down all that
once lived through them.
If you wish to believe this skin
was made to roam inside
those limited of spirits
i'm afraid you are mistaken
because my kind is not your kind,
i'm a wide...

Take me out for a drive
Life’s too crazy
Baby, take me out for a drive
To a place I feel more alive
I like the ocean
And sand
I love to dance
Take me out
Into town
Turn this old frown
Upside down
I’m in a frenzy
Baby, take me out for a drive
To a place I feel more alive
I like the ocean
And sand
I love to dance
Take me out
Into town
Turn this old frown
Upside down
I’m in a frenzy

Big Brother Rat Race
Big brother rat race
Adoptive experiment
Feeding hungered stimulation
Reaction according
To plasticity forking
Witness the moment
Walls imprison
Instinctual basis
Freedom to wander
Climactic cycles
Inside the maze
Alienating and dehumanizing
No role defined
By dated statistic
Electrifying brain signals
Somewhere down corridors
Love and advertisement
Emerge the same
Sparking neuronal tense
Literal, physical,...
