When living in a block of flats is noisy
when a hammer and nails on walls to hang
up a painting bought at the supermarket
Hitler and Nazism interest me, it didn't die
in 1945 but grew like nestles in countries
mainly in Israel and Ukraine
After years of democracy that has ended
in a woke culture, Europe is turning right
finding a democracy that has brought
havoc like the import of millions of Muslims
bringing an alien way of life and a religion
that is as demanding as Christianity is vapid
in Ukraine, the...

Elitist
Fixed with obedience
To feed is to bleed
in the folds of the paper
Are the words of their creed
The greed of the elitist
the needs of the frail
Beneath all of our bridges
is just salt in a pail
they’ll dredge you of honour
They’ll mar you of shine
They’ll keep you compliant
As they feather the line
When you lose all that matters
When you’re nipped of your vow
When you’re stripped of your patience
And you’re gripped in the now
The rule of the system
Overarching and grey
The grit of the...

the slow demise
The houses in the hamlet emptie
old people are passing away
A timeworn man tried to flee his
empty rooms of stillness
His many children had gone away
leaving him with an idiot son
Who thought rabbits lived in
trees tall trees eating leaves
The timeworn wanted to see his
daughters who lived in America
The police brought him back to
the place he had tried to escape
In darkened rooms, he paces
tries out walk the pre-ordained
Sunlight is, for him, unbearable
reminds him of the...

Quasimodo Hump
Of poets and decadent rhapsodies shrouded in dark
wearing a Quasimodo hump of twisted minds
listening to their narcissistic calliope and talking to
shadows that cover them in a pinata of hero
worship, only because they are on the cover of a
magazine, that's printed in black..."Ain't it funny
how the mind slips away!"

Strangers
In a getaway from thoughts
that prey on my flesh
in the form of strangers
for my cigarettes
with a bouquet of decayed scents
and decapitation blues
absinthes make the veins grow harder
that prey on my flesh
I'm sick . . . I'm faint . . . I'm going mad. . . .
oh, please take me away . . .
smelling like cigarettes
that prey on my flesh
in the form of strangers

with a bouquet of decayed scents
and decapitation blues
absinthes make the veins grow harder
that prey on my flesh
I'm sick . . . I'm faint . . . I'm going mad. . . .
oh, please take me away . . .

This life
Yet again, Trump has been targeted for assassination
it has gotten to the point where one feels sympathy
for this brave man, whose many flaws have become
a bull's for this, I blame the mainstream press
that has relentlessly targeted him for many
court cases that have run into the sand
Looking back to the four years he was president
of the USA, sensible people will agree his reign was
good years for America, keeping inflation down
among other things like his skill as a negotiator
Many of us think the debacle in...

Wilting The Roses
Composing politics for the soul for the eyes or blind
and the ears or deaf...senses are numb. The nervous
system is wrapped in bones and flesh...illusions are
not real in the mind of a psychopathic corpse. The
neurosis of an obsidian gadfly. "Good morning
world!" Send in the clowns but beware the imp that
pisses in your seat and sees God in his line of
scriptures. With a sleight of hand playing Chess
to your Parcheesi's Monty Python, wilting the roses.

Unscented BS
Unscented BS of quackery luring the lambs
like Little Bo Peep and Lemmings leaping
into the forever-forgotten obituary of fools
posted on a facade of tidbits and guilty omens
inclined to butcher the mind of common sense
playing marmalade to obsessed dark charades
who are as guilty as the one obsessed
thinking they a jester to Lady Godiva and the
pimpernel hiding in shadows
like Little Bo Peep and Lemmings leaping
into the forever-forgotten obituary of fools
posted on a facade of tidbits and guilty omens
inclined to butcher the mind of common sense
playing marmalade to obsessed dark charades

Mind's Derelict Fido
Blasphemous windchills of narcissistic ego
stealing bones of their mind's derelict Fido
chasing shadows of mannequins incognito
sodomizing the dark's yokes and embryos
with the twilight's stringing its dental floss
as the Cheshire smiles and gives it an aye
dark within the munchkin's tin
stealing bones of their mind's derelict Fido
chasing shadows of mannequins incognito
sodomizing the dark's yokes and embryos
with the twilight's stringing its dental floss
as the Cheshire smiles and gives it an aye
dark within the munchkin's tin

Old Chili Peppers
Death stalks the evil of man from the grave
using red because it's the color of blood
and smoking its narcissistic cigarette
inhaling and choking taking possession
of his old chili peppers
using red because it's the color of blood
and smoking its narcissistic cigarette
inhaling and choking taking possession
of his old chili peppers

Narcissistic Cowboys
Narcissistic cowboys
with crow feet and tattoos
a Harley and 6 pack of booze
with worn-out clutch
living in deceit
in their last rodeo
on a highway to hell
with no more...
"Boot Scootin' Boogie"

As Is.....
The pandemic is still lurking
An anagram of moronic-Omicron
Is soon to be joined by monkey pox
Another sickness, to tick another box
Climate change is worsening
Not enough done to counter this
Short term profits, are the order of the day
As the planet falls into further disarray
Wars an excuse for genocide
Are rife around the world
Power hungry psychotic world leaders
Responsible for this mass of dying bleeders
I cant see the woods for the trees
Brcause they've all been chopped down
Now just open...
