Psychotic Monopoly
Pain resides on the head of a pin
Stifled with this cruel anticipation
While torment pierces fragile skin
The mind has a sudden revelation
What was lost becomes apparent
Once untrained eyes learn to see
These lies slowly turn transparent
Allowing truth to finally break free
Doublespeak is now the standard
Hiding intentions behind a smile
Comply or prepare to be slandered
Robber-barons are growing hostile
The game of life is perpetual force
Feeding this psychotic monopoly
Until it’s cut away from the...

What a dumb shit!
When he found out how things really were between men & women
He was shocked how cutthroat both sexes were to one another
It was a drag to find out that everybody knew all the same shit and everyone played it off like it was nothing
All the things that go unsaid
They get shoved into your guts like cutlery
All the bullshit sex etiquette
It's like a miniature cold war
What a bunch of lies & ego trips
That's why all these people were so freaked out about each other
It's one big club
The look away & laugh club
A revelation the size...

Frogger
The white work van
passed so close
its wind picked
my hair from my shoulders
my wild eyes
sought you out
on the other side
of 10 rush-hour lanes
of interstate highway
my palms were slimy
from sweat washing
off my hand cream
and my stomach
creaked
I gasped,
but I didn’t step back
when the next car
blared its horn
loud enough to
echo in my ears
instead I stepped
forward

gossiping birds
amused shadows claw
do you stand in judgment of me?
greetings everyone but let's roll the verse first
and understand we don't need the formality
I'm sure we've already met
shallow without depth
I would love to jump in
but your pool of knowledge is cold
not inviting at all
gossip little back birds
cluck, cluck
there's not much to talk about

the noise the children of scorn make

THE GAME OF CAT AND MOUSE
Do you see ME through your own eyes as you see ME through my hurt and pain, do you see the steps I had to learn and grow to understand wholeheartedly that sometimes life gets the best of me. Do you see the reason why I am the way that I am due to the absence of love and honor and respect, even though I have a good heart and soul yet I am treated as though I don't even exist. As an individual who still has love deeply within my heart, yet I chose to remain silent within the dead of the night amongst the darkness that surrounds me, like a blanket silhouette submerge deep within the depth of...

Ambrosial (featuring 3rdEYErising)
it seems to be a human pattern
judging others by their entrance
entranced....not my fault tho
if I walk into a room
& speak of my healing
I'm instantly assumed
to be all in my feelings
reeling in truth...kinda rude
if I make mention of darkness & my trials
now I'm morbid
& determined to wallow
swallow or spit...your choice
if I speak on our symbiosis with nature
I must be a tree hugging granola cruncher
for the record...
I'll hug any tree... ...

I Broke The Truth, Because It’s Hotter That Way Sometimes
Lines of light are cut
with horizontal black
from the Roman blinds
the tousle of your hair
a cascade of lies spoken at dinner
that we weren’t fucking tonight
your reminder that I’m a liar
white dress crumpled to the floor
traces of your delicate flesh
on my fingers as they slip
deftly into hollow caverns
your sigh in my ear a truth
that ignites a body that was desperate
to tell you
that we’re not going there tonight
I go down like the setting sun
a slow crash into the cry of...

Conformist's Plea
Here, we value your creativity
Those splashes of insanity
Your brushstrokes of wild ideas
Give such colour to our community
Just keep it within the lines
We honour all your feelings
Even pain, if it brings you healing
Scribble black across our canvas
We’ll permit the unappealing
If it stays within the lines
It's adorable, your messy spirit,
(Though secretly we fear it)
Just smother a tiny bit at a time
So we don’t have to hear it
And keep it within the lines
Those splashes of insanity
Your brushstrokes of wild ideas
Give such colour to our community
Just keep it within the lines
We honour all your feelings
Even pain, if it brings you healing
Scribble black across our canvas
We’ll permit the unappealing
If it stays within the lines
It's adorable, your messy spirit,
(Though secretly we fear it)
Just smother a tiny bit at a time
So we don’t have to hear it
And keep it within the lines

The Shaggy D.A.
Famous MAGA piece of shit Gaetz
reminds us to be wise with votes
lest we wind up with reprobates
shaming daughters with shameless gloats,
which speak to his priorities,
for underage activism...
as merely bro proclivities
for ill suited public jism,
of which the citizens have heard
enough to think his word absurd
and that he is the biggest turd
to ever chase a teenage bird...
and if he could she'd be his slave
leftover from a MAGA rave.

Witnesses of a No-God
Depressevangelicals,
a curious subculture
that has emerged
over the last few decades,
represent an intriguing phenomenon
in the religious and social scene.
With depressive tendencies,
these individuals find
in the evangelical hosts a refuge
for their anxieties and frustrations,
at the same time that they seek
to impose their opinions and concepts,
often devoid of logic and coherence.
Literarily, they can be compared
to tragic characters,
whose lives are marked by an incessant
search for...
