Rare Find
If anyone happens to be a rare mineral finder, / Is it still wrong amongst strip miners… / For me to ask what Mother Earth was wearing? / What’s apparent to me / Such that I have to share it freely / Hidden works in quips / Subversive wit / Speaking of which / 2021 Rising Tip / Smizes behind masks and shit? / When corruption is high / Strange smiles are an untrustworthy shift / Watch for a blurry twist / Loki’s typically early on this / Murals on walls and piers explicit / Making love with raw spirit / Like it was first creation / Of some 90’s R&B lyrics / Mirrors on a shelf / Fall to...

the attempt
wails
not all
always
audible
and not always
alone
i wish i heard them right
when they shrieked in unison
the melancholic duet
of the heart
and soul
euphoria trumps melancholy
the duo's wailing
under the red carpet
had no chance
one vacuum box
no medium left
dear sound
try
propagate.

**it happens
if shit keeps

you around...
then quit
acting like
a toilet.

something special
Every one of us has something special
that we can add to the soup...
and when we
band together... our power can be absolute…

Peace is not Silent
Shared humanity
not hateful speak
words of forgiveness –
required speech
Acts of kindness
empathy, grace
hostility and malice –
compassion shall erase
In service of others
tolerance proposed
sensitivity, sincerity –
trust reposed

Men
Men cannot be weak
For they die
Cannot be strong
For they are bullies
And, certainly,
They cannot cry.
Men must win
Otherwise they are
Losers.
Must be head of the class
Otherwise they are
As good as last.
They must also be
Strong and brave,
Must show the way
And lead
Otherwise they are
Left behind
In the trail of dust.
Must always fight to win
Oh, wow, life ain't fair
But what else is there?
Winner takes all,
Yeah, but in order
For there to be a winner,
Also means...

Hold on
I sometimes see us
as a sad and ugly species
so stuck in our systems,
causing and experiencing
so much suffering.
But I try to remember that
mostly we are beautiful beings
and our uniqueness is
indisputable..
I think we just forget that we are
members of nature
so divine, so magnificent
so mysterious and mischievous,
we are everything
"multidimensional" deities
we possess and create all the
wonder love and hate,
we've done it all it seems
still to this day
and despite the...

Righteous Morning
Coffee or cunnilingus, / What kinda morning will it be? / Investment tree / Needful sum / Feed it off my gums / Freedom’s underlined by guile and clout / Loki took the freestyle route / On all the shit you only talk to your fuckdoll about / How I evolved my mouth / Solving doubt / Panache and polish? / Cashed that out / If it doesn’t make me happier, richer or better? / Pass. Never too proud / What I’ve always been about / Hidden brain brought loud / Cloud-free judgment / Socially budgetted / Adjustment answering / Corrupt cancelling / Fuck some frivolous pandering / Loki bucks supercilious...

Dreaming out crowd
The Bad Dream Flu / The Vaccine Battle / And the push back too / Gasoline to the fire / Too many chefs jizzing in the stew / Whizzing right through the marketplace of ideas / Darkest ways, no clue in fears / But the here and now / Like mirrors and shrouds / Appears to wow / Tao has no delivery fee / Withering liberty tree / Slippery Earth / Wish outburst / Flip a switch / And watch history flow in reverse / I dunno man, try playing the Zapruder Tape backwards / Track blurs / Some “first shall become the last” action as such / Time refraction’s just my hunch / Jihadists use Captain Crunch /...
