I Want A Divorce!
What happened to you?
You use to have the biggest smile on your face
You would always seem so positive & optimistic about everything
You were my inspiration, my confidant, my friend, my lover
You made me strive to become what I am today
Do you remember, we had nothing?
We struggled terribly
Barely any money for bills, food or decent clothing
I grew the company from just me to having over 100 employees
We made it!
I was able to buy whatever we needed or wanted
We have three homes and enough money in the bank for the rest of our lives ...

Center Stage
Veiled arsenal, twilight dark deliverance
of narcissistic primate flying monkeys
within their circle's weakest link, low
the esteem of inherently weak vessels
taking center stage, in life's drama
wearing a mask in a veiled arsenal
of twilight dark deliverance
of narcissistic primate flying monkeys
within their circle's weakest link, low
the esteem of inherently weak vessels
taking center stage, in life's drama
wearing a mask in a veiled arsenal

Monsanto, the World & GMO's
You study, manipulate, you control, you create , you impose...
You study, manipulate, you control, you create, you impose, on the world
Biotechnology and manipulation of the living are a good way to improve your financial power,
We know the effects of genetically modified products on the lives of human beings
Development of diseases which are immune to antibiotics
Transferring animal genes into plants
Cross-pollination methods can cause damage to other organisms that thrive in the environment
You want us to be depending
But we don't want to...

Data
Sell my data worth billions
Not paying for anything on your platform
Thought about buying something to check my heart out
I get a deal only 79 dollars
Think about what I’m doing
Paying them money while they get the data
That they’ll turn around to spin Billions
Social media should pay all of us
We influence what ads we see
Why do they reap all the money
When we supply all the data
Making Billions off of our thoughts
Building bunkers in Hawaii
Why...

William and Kate - unmistakably the laziest grifters in the British monarchical family!
By Stanley Collymore
They actually thrive on leveraging
others for their vulturine virtue
signalling PR, comfortably
waiting through this idle process for their plebeian fans and inured sycophants to
shower them, with praise. Meanwhile,
in actual reality, they quite evidently
obviously contribute little beyond a
transient camera appearance or in
the absence of that, specifically a
written piece undoubtedly clearly
and unquestionably veryj literally
irrefutably crafted very evidently

A very plausible letter written by Kate Middleton's PR team!
By Stanley Collymore
Oh give it a rest Daily Mail and clearly
crucially likeminded monarchical
sycophants! Kate Middleton
was perfectly well enough for Wimbledon in
the summer so this odiously contrived crap
you're promulgating Daily Mail has actually
got to be sarcasm, right? Kate a beacon of strength, really? Someone, who effectively
takes a year of "work" while very evidently
discernibly ordinary people, regardless of
truly healthy, or otherwise circumstances
actually have no choice but to soldier on! ...

Poverty Can Be Stopped!
Eaten from inside
While you're struggling to survive
Denied of any food
Body reeks of bile, cannot wash it clean
From infecting open wounds
Starving children die
Left to rot like meat
Nothing they can do
Western world still thrives
Masses are obese
In excess we consume
Hunger never satisfied
A constant lust for feed
Devouring disease
Overfed a human mass
Is struggling just to breathe
Devouring disease
Eaten from inside
While you're struggling to survive
Denied of any food
Western world still...

The vacuous Richard Eden - and falsified vulturine stories in the Daily Mail again!
By Stanley Collymore
Whatever each of you brainwashed
and braindead morons really think,
Meghan will never, even obviously
wearing a shroud, return to Britain
under any circumstances, so truly
get over it, as well as evidently so
your Richard Eden evilly fancifully
made up stories. And that clearly
similarly includes unquestionably
requisite, and significantly feudal
so-called serfs really pathetically
very preposterously royal duties!
That rather pointedly also, refers
irrefutably, to Meghan's husband ...

The Past is a foreign Country!
By Stanley Collymore
Do get it right Peter Hitchens or
at least, seriously make an
effort to do so. If there
was one word to sum up the demise of Smithfield market it would certainly be
greed itself vastly compounded by the
proverbial "quick buck" as developers
earnestly look for prime sites, for yet
more flats. This despite the growing
number of empty new flats that very
ironically are evidently unaffordable
to most of those who are in need of
economic housing! All this actually
obviously crucially...

Sexual intercourse and buyer's remorse!
By Stanley Collymore
Alcohol is just a convenient excuse
to essentially overlook evidently
very irresponsible and really
thoughtless and spontaneous behaviour!
Thus, per se, alcohol is rather pertinently
not the genuine problem, but undeniably
a conduit to actually facilitating the real
one, that indubitably is literally basically
that of men and women, really casually
jumping into bed with clearly complete
strangers to themselves, and naturally
crucially essentially people they really
quite distinctly don't...

Navalny
You kill me I get stronger
I defy your lies that you sell
You kill me ten more will come
Red and white roses are appropriate
For a HERO we don’t forget
Navalny against the Assassins
I’ll see you in my sleep Putin Cretin
Putin will die a worse death nuclear
Little man trying to stand up against
Navalny HERO in us
Putin’s chef in a plane blasted
Being silent against him
Roses are rising against Putin
Navalny death be the death of us
...

Straw-Man
Wealthy white men consumed with greed
Business meetings are a verbal circle jerk
Corrupt power junkies with an ego to feed
Bad intentions always hide behind a smirk
Doublespeak laced with some political jive
Demonic spirts nest beneath a simple mind
Conspiracy plans are alibis used to survive
Loopholes in the law a scapegoat in a bind
Worshipping a straw-man that they created
While cowards lie to protect the investment
Proposed numbers been artificially inflated
For this is a hotbed that breeds resentment
...
