Love's Hypocrisy
I've loved
I've lost
and paid the cost
I can't take
anymore of the pain
in love it seems
I've got everything to lose
and not a single
thing to gain
love's hypocrisy
is to blame
I've lost
and paid the cost
I can't take
anymore of the pain
in love it seems
I've got everything to lose
and not a single
thing to gain
love's hypocrisy
is to blame

shame
the time is nigh
I enter into an understanding
I am more light than darkness
beings of guile watch me intently
unfurl the truth watch hate spin
little omissions burn on the pyre of regret
come hither and lay witness to the revealing
unveiling the dark I strike the giant
evil speaks against itself
with a tongue that slithers it spits acid
I stand square and center
time will tell all cards revealed
the tarot says jealousy is at the heart of things
turn on the eternal wheel
liar, liar pants on fire ...

get some knee pads already
I caught myself
mid eye roll
hands tossed in the air
thinking "again...here we go"
but I paused for a beat
and gave it full my consideration
despite my usual frustration
I really needed to understand
why you do...
...what you do
and I think I'm finally on to you
I know why your knees take a beating
head bent in pious penance
wringing fingers in invocation
there in your habitual pew
on display in prominent view
or elbows braced on the edge of your bed
and this...
mere...

Swagger
artifice and deceit, so discreet
hidden behind a handsome smile
cheers supposedly from the heart
he views everything with a sparkle
playing the game with cunning tricks
walking on the streets with a swagger
his words flow like graceful silk
although at times they sound shallow
a pretentious smile on his face
speaking about all the books
that he has never read
movies and philosophy only heard
he doesn't have a genuine heart
he doesn't know how to be honest
he only wants to be the good guy
even...

Like Water for Chocolate*
In the movie, after a life of cruelty
Evil Mama Elena's ghost
struck out one last time
against Love after death
That's what evil does
when it's exposed;
it plays the victim
to garner sympathetic attention—
attempts to destroy Light
strikes below the belt
with inuendo on its way out
rather than admit
its own wrong doings
( or alternate accounts )
SPOILER ALERT:
Truth overcomes—
so forgive yourself first
for years of deception ...

Trash
I'm amazed that there's still the sort of folks,
Like backward billies stuck up in the hills,
Who don't get that they are the butt of jokes
About the racial hate their pride instils.
It's pretty clear, at least it is to me,
That there's no such thing as a master race
And anyone who claims a supremacy
Winds up with boastful egg upon their face!
There's no advantage in being lily white
Or having trigger fingers with an itch
Willing to shoot their neighbors dead on sight
Because as racist humans...they're a bitch, ...

Gucci Eyes
The bags under your eyes are Gucci
leaving water marks on deaf ears
by names ghosted fapping
for attention...
"Mama's little baby loves short'nin' bread."

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

second sight
"Mama,
the sun is
in my eyes,
I am blinded!"
"That's okay
my child,
it is far better
not to see the
world for what
it really is."

Piss of Death
I walked out with two pistols toward the sky
My instant death wish-bitch I was ready to die,
“The police surrounding my house, had no choice and fired
Now at club hell I’m permanently retired,
“Growing up on the other side of perfect
From birth I’ve been poisoned by the serpent,
“Right on the nuts bitten so I will never forget the attack
Until the final day I was laid out on my back,
“Fake motherfuckas at that moment always have something to say
Wish I can wake from my death and let piss spray,
“Standing tall and sharp in my black...
