maybe we've had it wrong all along
they watch...
with their glass dagger eyes
sharpened to the point of gouging
razor tongues ever at the ready
eager to slash truth...
...into something more suitable
more in line with their toxic savagery
their ears like pools of poison
soaking up & destroying honesty
as it drips acid from their mouths
who knows from where these ghouls originate
as they spread lies...
whispered into porous minds
allowing such foul germs as judgment & hate to pollinate
turning them into a singly directed organism
many...

Comparison
It's bad to compare.
Demons lurk the perfect ones.
Illusion, not bliss.
Demons lurk the perfect ones.
Illusion, not bliss.

Pacman; Ghosts of the past
Haven't the ghosts driven you crazy yet?
Their attitude is not encouraging
Life after life, is it the same as before?
So what is this zeal for? ...
Fighting ghosts, even after death,
Break on a visit, chase and break bones with
ethereal jaws, worn out mouths
On a completely virtual firmament
They feed on lives, and only live on that
You get stronger, but only for a while
You change roles, but again a blow to your crown
And even the end of the game is not the end,
the Credits lie
Always wandering...

And even the end of the game is not the end,

Close to the Edge...
Fear
used by many
to make many
Greed
used by many
to hurt many
Stupidity
used by many
to let many
close to the edge
down by the river
the sky is falling
Jesse James used a gun...

Juicy Lies
He cried wolf but now he weeps
All those lies caught up to him real quick
Meanwhile others are suffering from hate crimes
The world can be an ugly place but some people are sick
Was it for the attention? The spotlight?
Well now everybody knows he’s a liar and a fraud
And for the purpose of what? I just don’t understand
The truth revealed itself to break down this odd of facade
It’s all a mess, none of this makes sense
I guess sometimes fame creates some greed
Trying to play a victim says a lot about character
People are...

black
an unwritten poem
which was to be written in the coolness of the moon
which was about to scream with a devoted love and infinite pain.
in which a black rainbow was going to be visible on the bookmarked background
in which someone was going to sit on a bench in autumn and smile brightly
in which the royal silence rising from the east was to be whispers in one's ears
in which one had to kiss someone's lips
in which someone wanted to eat someone's tender flesh
someone was going to understand the art of someone's unexplained love ...

fact is (and always will be ..)
don’t do new musicians or authors
or films much
as I read the reviews
I prefer the old stuff like
the beatles trad jazz louis mcniece
old black and white
cinematography anything that doesn’t confuse
truth with lies
