The misadventures of a lone ranger
A lost man wakes alone,
a relentless mighty knight fighting old soldiers
underneath the broken bridge
of Landscape.
He never thought they could hurt him.
He never foresaw the gang bang coming.
All those men were taking advantage of his body.
Many swords of attack penetrate his back.
He's been able to take them so many times
that I felt the urge to rhyme on it
like my pen is on fire.

Trans(cendent) Charisma
they are queer
or trans
or bi
or cis
who knows
(doesn’t matter)
they dress strangely
(leaning toward bright colors
and soft fabrics)
their speech is a bit different
(slightly effeminate)
when they talk
they look you in the eye
listening more than speaking
interested
not interrogative

legit
I've been feeling claustrophobic, I mean like static inside my body
internally reaching out to touch the sky
my soul longs to fly
take a breath and take flight
nothing hindering me
changing the vibe on the airs
because lately it's been frantic
fanatical, got me fearing war
getting all kinds of noise from the left and right
my fears are legit
my heart swells, then fails me
watching the plight of the Earth
humanity is hurting
animals are suffering
everyday on the net I'm left crying
my empathy...

Plastic Coating
More than ninety percent of cadavers dissected had microplastics in brains and livers
Why is plastic still being produce and how are these microplastics being delivered
Everything from fossil fuels must be a profit way down to the last sliver
Hell yeah fucking profit over humanity now didn't that make your soul quiver
Where are these plastics coming from and how are they entering everything
Simply read the words that are written and see if anything ring
Ninety-four percent of Americans drink bottled water, now think globally
It's scientifically proven...

No Verbal Tense
In the twilight of day, where shadows stretch long,
you find yourself pondering, life's complex song.
The moon, a cheese wheel, rolls across the sky,
stars sprinkle the heavens, a cosmic pie.
Your thoughts wander, a kite in a hurricane,
pulled by the winds of whimsy and pain.
Cats sleep, their purrs a melody sweet,
dreams of catnip and mice at their feet.
You sip on your tea, a brew of contemplation,
steeping in moments of pure fascination.
Each sip a journey, a boat on life's river,
navigating currents that make your...

Practice Bars 3
Quite pleasing, I have mastered rhyme rooks.
Skies bleeding science after y'all shook.
My feelings, I don't have them all, look.
Like reading, Isaac Asimov books.
Guised greetings might have masked divine crooks.
Dice leading pirates after spines stood.
Try scheming heights we passed in times took.
Price pleading, private passions might push.
Bright beaming binds the blatherskite foot.
Lines weaving lying lavish like hoof.
Wine, wheat, and rice Saturn giant sook.
Rye seedling blight have acid nights cooked.
Prized...

Read or Die
Read these three books:
Frankenstein: A Modern Prometheus
Crime and Punishment
The Plague
and find out what kind of person you are!

You suck
I hope that this finds you in the worst place
With zits and dead skin on your face
I want to send your kid a box of legos
And I hope you step on one everyday
Babies seem to cry when they’re around you
And pets don’t want to stay in the room
No amount of booze can make you attractive
And you make really bad tasting food
The word around town is you smell bad
I smelled you coming from 30 feet away
You have a bad haircut, and your style is shit
It offends everyone in every single way
With zits and dead skin on your face
I want to send your kid a box of legos
And I hope you step on one everyday
Babies seem to cry when they’re around you
And pets don’t want to stay in the room
No amount of booze can make you attractive
And you make really bad tasting food
The word around town is you smell bad
I smelled you coming from 30 feet away
You have a bad haircut, and your style is shit
It offends everyone in every single way

where in the world
This is a place I never would have thought I could even go to. The asylum doors are bare. Their sanctuary smells and sounds never have washed off me. When ever I am ready, if and when this day arrives, promise me this do not take me here. Stay at my side, wash the cobwebs from the corners of my mouth and eyes. Do not dry my tears. Brave me with magma, make belief, stay, do not leave me, let me become an illusionist just once more. Coo me a dove right then right there!
Her rollator hardly used stays in a forgotten corner. A huge screen screams in vanity where an apocalyps takes...

Victim of the Situation
As I sit on the toilet and contemplate all those I shitted on
I have no regrets that the bastards are gone,
“Fuck ass men, mentally retarded children and trifling women
Now peacefully is how a motherfucka is livin,
“Some people ask what to me has sentimental value
My PlayStation 5 born on Christmas day because it’s considered brand new,
“It never disrespect me, brings shame or call me out of my name
At least I know one hundred percent it is all about the game,
“As long as the electricity continue to flow ...
