Monsanto, the World & GMO's
You study, manipulate, you control, you create , you impose...
You study, manipulate, you control, you create, you impose, on the world
Biotechnology and manipulation of the living are a good way to improve your financial power,
We know the effects of genetically modified products on the lives of human beings
Development of diseases which are immune to antibiotics
Transferring animal genes into plants
Cross-pollination methods can cause damage to other organisms that thrive in the environment
You want us to be depending
But we don't want to...

1999, the birth of the modern hipster
The hipster of the 21st century are a subculture of people who are already dominant.
They are not your underdogs carving out a place to breathe freely.
The modern day hipster aligns himself or herself with rebel subculture and with the dominant class.
Thus, the rebel consumer, who rebels against nothing.
The artist who creates no art.
The hipsters who flooded Brooklyn and the entire Western World in the 2000's might look like Bohemians, but they are not.
They are not anti-authoritarian, like other youth subcultures through history. They drink the Kool-Aid...

Lichen Thallus
Apply the federation.
Allow a congregation.
Lose your mind to sedation.
Lose your kool; aid the plantation.
Planted in a vase.
No roots for me to trace.
No more individual face.
Just people losing the race.
A spore developing.
A hive of demons loudly sing.
Attract the greater being.
To destroy the weakest thinking.
A tree that only lies.
A mistletoe leeches the wise.
Time to prune the parasites.
Assassin's have a lonely plight.
Allow a congregation.
Lose your mind to sedation.
Lose your kool; aid the plantation.
Planted in a vase.
No roots for me to trace.
No more individual face.
Just people losing the race.
A spore developing.
A hive of demons loudly sing.
Attract the greater being.
To destroy the weakest thinking.
A tree that only lies.
A mistletoe leeches the wise.
Time to prune the parasites.
Assassin's have a lonely plight.

Poverty Can Be Stopped!
Eaten from inside
While you're struggling to survive
Denied of any food
Body reeks of bile, cannot wash it clean
From infecting open wounds
Starving children die
Left to rot like meat
Nothing they can do
Western world still thrives
Masses are obese
In excess we consume
Hunger never satisfied
A constant lust for feed
Devouring disease
Overfed a human mass
Is struggling just to breathe
Devouring disease
Eaten from inside
While you're struggling to survive
Denied of any food
Western world still...
While you're struggling to survive
Denied of any food
Body reeks of bile, cannot wash it clean
From infecting open wounds
Starving children die
Left to rot like meat
Nothing they can do
Western world still thrives
Masses are obese
In excess we consume
Hunger never satisfied
A constant lust for feed
Devouring disease
Overfed a human mass
Is struggling just to breathe
Devouring disease
Eaten from inside
While you're struggling to survive
Denied of any food
Western world still...

Villanelle Nr.24 — Prosperity Gospel Turbo-Charged
Being a billionaire is a sign
of God’s blessing, and my Vocation:
to rule over you…, and that’s fine
I surrender to God’s design,
God’s plan for my life — my station
is being a billionaire; it’s a sign
you should accept gracefully — align!
to obey me is to obey God’s creation …
me to rule over you — and that’s fine.
Poor people are useless-eater-swine
ignorant of manifestation.
Being a billionaire is a sign
you are the branches but I am the vine...
of God’s blessing, and my Vocation:
to rule over you…, and that’s fine
I surrender to God’s design,
God’s plan for my life — my station
is being a billionaire; it’s a sign
you should accept gracefully — align!
to obey me is to obey God’s creation …
me to rule over you — and that’s fine.
Poor people are useless-eater-swine
ignorant of manifestation.
Being a billionaire is a sign
you are the branches but I am the vine...

Family Secrets
Family Secrets
Don’t go round selling family secrets
The secrets I know would get me murdered
The things that I know wish I was dementia
The things I know I wish I could forget em
She smiles at me at the mention I know what she is worth surviving millions
But I must agree she is a beauty my heart still
Belongs to her even if I hate her
My heart belongs to her
She hates me but she won’t leave me
Don’t go round selling family secrets
The secrets I know would get me murdered
The things that I know wish I was dementia
The things I know I wish I could forget em
She smiles at me at the mention I know what she is worth surviving millions
But I must agree she is a beauty my heart still
Belongs to her even if I hate her
My heart belongs to her
She hates me but she won’t leave me

A Hefty Fee
Reality always strikes between the eyes
Leaving it’s mark on the human psyche
Madness will cut everyone down to size
Life’s taxed even death costs a hefty fee

Go the Green Backs
Rat a tat tat
Go the green backs
There is a scent of greed
Security all around
Vans full of cash
Ben counts 100
Don’t look that way
For comes another day
Guard drops down
Green greed escapes
Slapping em down
Picking em up
Blue marble spins on green
Turquoise beauty
Loves you when the rent is paid
Don’t pick up the tab
Ain’t licking the landing strip
Greed makes the world go round
Rat a Tat Tat
Go the green bucks
Go the green backs
There is a scent of greed
Security all around
Vans full of cash
Ben counts 100
Don’t look that way
For comes another day
Guard drops down
Green greed escapes
Slapping em down
Picking em up
Blue marble spins on green
Turquoise beauty
Loves you when the rent is paid
Don’t pick up the tab
Ain’t licking the landing strip
Greed makes the world go round
Rat a Tat Tat
Go the green bucks

Live positive
Live moments in positivity
Discard negative
Just did something
Gave away the key
To prosperity
If I sit and stew
And bake a monster of anger
Doesn’t help those i love
Think a circuit is undone
In my cerebellum
Scream at the tv when they don’t
Do what i say to comfort
And fatten the wallet
I cant just beat me
To pay for my sins
So I’m starting something new
Turn a lemon to victory
in my mind I’m aware i watch me
I’m living in positivity
Not down won’t...

Private Jets
Private jets
And chemtrails
Flying first class
45 minutes to my house
1 percent carbon footprint
132 times more than you
Caviar and silk robes
Paid for by your local mailman
Billions and billions
Can’t wrap my mind around
But they leave the check for the rest of us
And tweet about bullshit
They think is important
But not in my world
Have a birthday of decadence
Jet set to opulence
Must be nice for a peasant
Close as you get
Be their servant
Pick up...

On The Hill
On the hill
All the pennies dropped
Should have bought a mansion on the hill
Tried to be a winner
I’m such a loser through and through
All the time I spent
Instead of being present
Chasing dollar signs
Being on the wrong side
I still remember
My first time
It was 1994….Eagles and Niners
Garner laid it down and I
Collected two bills
The start of something
So destructive
Wish I could go back cause
I see it’s killing my family
Pennies dropped
Add up to a bucket ...
All the pennies dropped
Should have bought a mansion on the hill
Tried to be a winner
I’m such a loser through and through
All the time I spent
Instead of being present
Chasing dollar signs
Being on the wrong side
I still remember
My first time
It was 1994….Eagles and Niners
Garner laid it down and I
Collected two bills
The start of something
So destructive
Wish I could go back cause
I see it’s killing my family
Pennies dropped
Add up to a bucket ...
