Tina Turner
She did not ask for the life
She was given
Looking like the woman and man
Who decided their life
Was more important
Grandma to the rescue
She did not choose the
One she loved
It hit her like a freight train
Never derailed
Controlled and rolled on
Seeing his goals
Who can save her now?
She did not ask for Talent.
The only saving grace in
Her existence
The children go
The friendships die
The love beaten out of her
Leaving marks that can't hide
Hope all but gone ...

Alia vs Stuck Up Career Lady
"Your PhDs don't impress me much. Some people are wise beyond their years without our shitty education system."
Fight!
Alia holds a ruler almost as big as her. Like a sword.
They circle around each other.
Stuck up career lady uses all her school knowledge, has a book in her hand. Alia uses everything combined.
Alia dodges all her indoctrinating moves, and she goes right into the attack, slicing her in half with the sharp ruler.
Fatality move: All the papers and knowledge the stuck career lady has accumulated flies...

The Iron Fist Of Absolute Control
be quiet
not a word
don’t dare
raise your voice
this is our
domain
we rule this
our way
you don’t
have a say
it don’t matter
if your right
i have the power
to put you down
my foot
has more weight
to stamp you
down hard
just know
your place
i’m watching you
every minute
waiting for
your mistakes
remember i’m perfect
your not
i only hear you
when I need too
your mine to control
feel as small
as you...

The Thing About This Survivor
I’m on to you
I’ve learned from people far better than you
If I’m uneasy
There’s a reason
I may not know what your game is
But I’ve already been watching you
This girl’s radar is hyper focused
I’ve already been putting the pieces together
Enjoy what you have now
Because what you want
You’re not going to get
The puzzle may not be completed yet
You’re going to help me
And you’re not even aware
Be warned
I may appear weak
But you have no idea
What I’m capable of
I’ve learned from people far better than...

Gifts.
I met a being along the way.
Who claimed to be from a far away land.
Under who's spell. Enchanted i became.
As they toyed & danced with me.
I went along, aiming to please.
We gave each other gifts.
As you toed me along with strings i was unable to see.
Entangled i became.
Deaf to the thuth. To blind to see.
Till it was to late. You see.
You saw the end, well before me.
Planning accordingly. You severed ties.
Yet retained qualities you liked in me.
As if to sweeten the...

Seedless Soul
Narcissistic porcelain of seedless soul
lonely and sleeveless without a heart
on stormy nights echoing Shakespeare
without shadows, just flames of duress
of unconscious mind contrarious insanity
blinded from the sight of self's endless
epiphany's face in the crowd
lonely and sleeveless without a heart
on stormy nights echoing Shakespeare
without shadows, just flames of duress
of unconscious mind contrarious insanity
blinded from the sight of self's endless
epiphany's face in the crowd

Dark's Psychosis
Torrents of insanity, narcissistic schizophrenia
in the dark's psychosis of self-destruction, now
all turn to shit because they know who I am,
another rambling fool without gage in a river
of bones, with shoes filled with stones, lost
and forgotten, devoured of soul in the mind's
chaos, like a pale horse in the dark's psychosis
preoccupied with, "The House that Jack Built."

Such a great blow for a day job
The dude at the counter said that he had gotten the job
He was to go downstairs and meet the boss, get his apron and get briefed on the rules and regulations of the restaurant
He went downstairs to meet his boss
He walked to the threshold of the door and knocked gently
The boss looked up from the desk and told him to come in and sit down
He asked him how bad he wanted the job
He told him that he really likes the place and he thought that he could really...
The boss cut him off and asked him what he can do to get the job
He didn't know what he...

I'll Play That Fiddle For You
As odd as it may seem
This reality is only a dream
Like millions of insects freezing to death
Sociopath is my mathematics
The final answer is zero
C'mon, you'd love to be the superhero
The processed foods of your labors
Have decayed into disease
And the sweat you are dripping
Is the milk you consume with ease
Pick the peddles off of my flower
I'll reveal the lies you told during the last hour
Your passion is sour
My control is power
This reality is only a dream
Like millions of insects freezing to death
Sociopath is my mathematics
The final answer is zero
C'mon, you'd love to be the superhero
The processed foods of your labors
Have decayed into disease
And the sweat you are dripping
Is the milk you consume with ease
Pick the peddles off of my flower
I'll reveal the lies you told during the last hour
Your passion is sour
My control is power

Hesitate
Arrogant men love killing a peaceful dream
Forcing society to participate in nightmares
Independent thoughts are labeled extreme
Under scrutiny from willfully ignorant stares
People trade freedom for this secure illusion
Not realizing the hook lurking within the bait
Numbers never add up to justify conclusion
Programmed minds are groomed to hesitate

Bro-sencrantz and Shill-denstern
The mind gets boggled awful hard
when folks do stupid things,
like hoist with their own petard
outrageous votes for kings.
Bombs away, sirs, in your own boots,
to step in your own deuce,
but progress seeks far better routes...
where dipshits just vamoose!
