when the ink dries
lithographed memories, carbon copied pain
used currency to amuse
cheap counterfeits easily spent
I kept my soul hidden
well guarded within my inner sanctum of trust
the wallflowers wept with me
the graffiti on the walls scream for me
the dark spoke when I was too worn from battle
in innocence my mind sheltered
I wouldn't let your fornication of the soul in
I remain pure of heart
cold calculation your blunt instrument
did you think I couldn't see?
I was precise, you used brute force
you can't jimmy...

dreams are the minds manipulation of the heart
Laying here, staring at my phone
My eyes sore from screentime
Knowing... Knowing that I'll dream
If I just let go and let my mind slip
But knowing they will be there either way
Keeps me staring at this magic device,
Scrolling, scrolling, and scrolling
My anxiety flying higher and higher
Swirling up with ever upwards motion of my thumb
Need to tell the doctor to please give me a pill
To stop my dreams and clean my soul
My mind and my heart are equal parts liars
And I know the truth deep down inside me
But I know, gods I know,...
My eyes sore from screentime
Knowing... Knowing that I'll dream
If I just let go and let my mind slip
But knowing they will be there either way
Keeps me staring at this magic device,
Scrolling, scrolling, and scrolling
My anxiety flying higher and higher
Swirling up with ever upwards motion of my thumb
Need to tell the doctor to please give me a pill
To stop my dreams and clean my soul
My mind and my heart are equal parts liars
And I know the truth deep down inside me
But I know, gods I know,...

Summa Victus
The past's future was so much brighter
Than the present's which is dimmer
The older I get the dreams unravel
Because I found out I'm not the winner
I'm a loser who never got the prize
I'm a loser who received all their lies
I'm a loser who is treated like a creep
I'm the loser no-one wants to keep
When I'm feeling down
I'm isolation bound
If I knew what the future would hold
After I grew up and gotten old
I would've thrown myself away
So I wouldn't have to face another day
I'm a loser who tried but only...
Than the present's which is dimmer
The older I get the dreams unravel
Because I found out I'm not the winner
I'm a loser who never got the prize
I'm a loser who received all their lies
I'm a loser who is treated like a creep
I'm the loser no-one wants to keep
When I'm feeling down
I'm isolation bound
If I knew what the future would hold
After I grew up and gotten old
I would've thrown myself away
So I wouldn't have to face another day
I'm a loser who tried but only...

Straight Talk Live (Civil Unrest)
Most people refuse to take chances, to step out of the comfort zone of familiarity, some by habit, by choice, and some, even out of fear of trying.
How would one ever know their passion of achievement if not willing to take the risk for the greater good. The laws of gravity are meant for the earth, to uplift the mind, soften the heart, and to spiritually enlighten the spirit of the soul.
We all get up each morning, hoping, praying for one more chance of survival in this realm we call life, however, we refuse to move or adjust to make our circumstances much better, more...

I LOVE THE TASTE OF YOUR KISSES
THE PROOF IS IN THE TASTE
Princess, I love the taste
of your sweet lips
as they gently, with passion,
cause my heart rhythm skips.
I love the softness
and taste of your tongue
as it ignites dueling passion
as all night kissing is begun.
I love to see your eyes
gently close as I hold your body
closer than my skin
as we kiss over and over again.
Oh, I taste you in my dream
and long for you when I awake
Oh, my beautiful Princess,
please kiss me for heaven's sake.
I AM HUNGRY TO TASTE YOU.
Princess, I love the taste

gently close as I hold your body

as we kiss over and over again.
Oh, I taste you in my dream
and long for you when I awake
Oh, my beautiful Princess,
please kiss me for heaven's sake.
I AM HUNGRY TO TASTE YOU.

String in your Hands
I'm string in your hands
You tie me and knot me
And pull me too strands
You use me to lift you
To carry your dreams
To catch a few fish
To swing off life's beams
You light me for light
You burn me for heat
A fancy few twists
I'll trap what you eat
Satisfy fantasies
Bound wrists to my feet
I'll hold up my end
Shall both our ends meet?
I'm string in your hands
You tie me and knot me
And pull me too strands
You use me to lift you
To carry your dreams
To catch a few fish
To swing off life's beams
You light me for light
You burn me for heat
A fancy few twists
I'll trap what you eat
Satisfy fantasies
Bound wrists to my feet
I'll hold up my end
Shall both our ends meet?
I'm string in your hands

Slither and Hiss
You'll never be able
to kill me with kindness.
It wasn't kind, it was fake.
Of course he's charming,
his father was a snake.
to kill me with kindness.
It wasn't kind, it was fake.
Of course he's charming,

Trump is Fighting Institutional Racism
Biden said Trump
was pro-defund police
At first I thought
he was lying
so I laughed
but then I felt bad
for laughing
at someone
who thinks he’s
running for re-election
against himself
for Senate
...and doesn’t
remember
where he is
But his point
remains...
Trump knows there’s
systematic racism
And he wants to
fix it all
whether it’s
police who “choke”
Or race-bait
policies
He’s...
was pro-defund police
At first I thought
he was lying
so I laughed
but then I felt bad
for laughing
at someone
who thinks he’s
running for re-election
against himself
for Senate
...and doesn’t
remember
where he is
But his point
remains...
Trump knows there’s
systematic racism
And he wants to
fix it all
whether it’s

Or race-bait

Do we not
Live

Is it not
the case
that the freedom
of suppressed
Technology
would mean
Freedom
For Us

Desperate State
It is a sad
Lonely
Feeling
when one watchs
friends
and family
bend the knee
on the neck
of their own heart
Struggling
for blance
Desperately trying
To Breath
