Power’s dynamic.
The
primitive, shrill–
deafening roar of
abject terror
hums its
quiet requiem
these days.
Still omnipresent;
diluted that it may
remain with
Every
man, woman, husband, wife, and
outcast alike.

I Wield This in His Memory
Fuck off, MAGA, and your mad assail;
you no more own the skies of liberty
than the Pequod owned that honky whale
or Ahab all the hate he put to sea.
My father's "good news" was a flimsy blade
he chose to wield for the greater good
but the news today would see him dismayed
at decency no longer understood.
So now words must be of sterner steel
as..."naught's an angle to the iron way"
to rend a path back to what we feel
about the heartless fuckers holding sway... ...

Farewell
Acting like I need to mend.
Implying that I'm broken.
Tells a weakness in your head.
As insults often spoken.
Your ignorance to see.
Is easy to believe.
Your good intentions may be,
The reason I grit my teeth.
Your tactics of goodwill.
Manipulative speech.
Your practiced fictitious guilt.
Is just not worth the grief.
It's time for me to leave.
The only contrition I feel.
Is for overwhelming relief.
But you I can never tell.
Silence says my farewell.
A R.M.

She touched him
She showed herself
She took him from her
She made him into a human wreck
She showed herself
She took him from her
She made him into a human wreck

The Most Unusual Hypnotist Act
Zachary stood naked in
front of everybody, stared
deep into the baby blue
eyes of Caroline and
made her strip down
and flash her body.

Born A Sacrifice
The classic tale Centuries-old
through self-owned reliance
a hero rises from the cold
But Within these chapters carefully hidden
Upon the pages where this story is written
Between the lines is the story untold
Of the acts of love
by the willfully forfeited soul
Born a sacrifice
Meant to be consumed
A life never lived
Born to be used
Created as a vessel
To hold an elixir of love
Collected from the wounds
of Shredded palms
That rest in the hands
refusing gloves
Dripping now is the nurturer of...
through self-owned reliance
a hero rises from the cold
But Within these chapters carefully hidden
Upon the pages where this story is written
Between the lines is the story untold
Of the acts of love
by the willfully forfeited soul
Born a sacrifice
Meant to be consumed
A life never lived
Born to be used
Created as a vessel
To hold an elixir of love
Collected from the wounds
of Shredded palms
That rest in the hands
refusing gloves
Dripping now is the nurturer of...

Is Ignorance Always So Bliss? (Collab w/ Vision_of_insanity)
Slithering on their bellies out in old L.A.
Superficial elite’s invade artificial minds
Wilting souls exposed in shades of grey
Contractual red tape is the tie that binds
Throw a few crumpled bills in their face
They eat the bait right off the hook
Executives laugh, as these soulless souls try and compromise
They beg, as their lives are ruined
Heavy scrutiny under a public spotlight
Another fallen angel drowning in disgrace
The hunter is now hunted in such delight
When death arrives wearing a familiar face
Listen...
Superficial elite’s invade artificial minds

Contractual red tape is the tie that binds

They beg, as their lives are ruined
Heavy scrutiny under a public spotlight
Another fallen angel drowning in disgrace
The hunter is now hunted in such delight
When death arrives wearing a familiar face

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.

The Scoundrel Republic
Neo-Confederate MAGA
has made it very clear
as when Chickamauga
made freedom cost quite dear.
And now we know what they want most
is to fuck some daughter,
paid for by an oligarch host...
who by ruse had got her.
Thus we learn that their culture war
is bogus on its face
when they as well want sex and more
and so to kids give chase...
to have them serve as demimonde
or courtesan of old
whose virgin trust soon forms a bond...
as sex slaves bought and sold.

White China Moon
White china moon
Floating across Montana
Spy high above the clouds
In the land of the silos
Red china moon
Bobbing and weaving
Powered by the sun
About 60000 feet high
Looking for clues
White china moon
Floating by Missouri
Across the plains
Heading for where the wind goes
Red china says it’s about the weather
This balloon that strayed into our land
It’s not what they say but what they do
Can’t believe in their truth
Scramble the jets over South Carolina
6 miles...
Floating across Montana

The U.S.S. Tyrannic
People knew just how stupid things could get
then proceeded to vote that way again
so all their ballots could aid and abet
the greater evil and his toady men
now mandate confident with sucker votes
for double down syndrome bloviation
insisting on lies, or at best misquotes,
to finish off a once mighty nation
full of dipshits he knew would never learn
due to multivariate addictions
and subsequent lack of public concern
in the joint space of shared afflictions...
all tarred and feathered as communism
since private...
