Conservatism and populism
are stupid in simultaneity
like double down loads of bumpkin jism
or Monsanto homogeneity.
Yet this is what the MAGA yokel wants
just to claim victory to be their own
in trite double down loads of tweets and taunts
no ethical mind would ever condone;
a bitter win that the ages have seen
as loss in every facet of the act
whereby the venting of a pent-up spleen
would sacrifice every established fact
which would give everyone the hope they need
to overcome the injustice decreed.

Never Goes Out Of Style
In America when it comes to fashion there is always a change
and clothes come in a wide price range
sometimes dresses, and sweaters have suede or leather patches
made in china in large batches
there are an infinite number of accessories
that shine like lights on Christmas trees
but, when comes to race, folks walk around with a phony smile
with hate in their hearts-that never goes out of style
and clothes come in a wide price range
sometimes dresses, and sweaters have suede or leather patches
made in china in large batches
there are an infinite number of accessories
that shine like lights on Christmas trees
but, when comes to race, folks walk around with a phony smile
with hate in their hearts-that never goes out of style

Reality Versus Religious Doctrines
Reality is in fact the best teacher for mankind and not religious doctrines.
The things that people say and write cannot teach as well as reality.
No matter what you hear, read, and think, you must pay attention to reality.
You should always reject any teaching that is not consistent with reality.
According to the bible, the superior authorities have been established by God.
Did God really have something to do with the inception of human government?
Reality shows the falsity in the age-old religious belief that has mislead many people.
Wealth...

Cruel Ones
The cruel ones don’t let u up when you r down
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When you r down
Sit and smile at your misery
They sit and smile at my misery
Cruel ones won’t let u up
When ur down
Rip and pull at your heartstrings
Don’t feel…anything
They rip and pull
And u feel real small…Like you’re 2 foot tall
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When u r down
Till a time comes when you don’t care
And leave it all behind
Drop these feelings of being down
And these clowns...
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When you r down
Sit and smile at your misery
They sit and smile at my misery
Cruel ones won’t let u up
When ur down
Rip and pull at your heartstrings
Don’t feel…anything
They rip and pull
And u feel real small…Like you’re 2 foot tall
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When u r down
Till a time comes when you don’t care
And leave it all behind
Drop these feelings of being down
And these clowns...

Business Models
Now it seems the law is just for suckers
thanks to the win at all cost white boy votes
who everyone else knows are the fuckers
snorting winner's dope on their motor boats
in their cultural affirmation vice
where they bitch about crime, but do the drugs,
snuck through that border to reduce the price
by some fossil fuel motorhead thugs
whose motivation is to be in charge,
so they can knock down those pesky rules
preventing illicit sales at large,
especially in the public schools...
because they love the Jeffrey Epstein plan...

Cinder Trail
Tough as a chastity cast iron scinth...
The reaper, always the reaper.
"Now I'm walking alone on the cinder trail."
Forget the cut deep in your flesh.
Face the night as it was a flash.
"Now you're walking alone on the cinder trail."
Shoot down your loose phantoms...
The king is dead and there's no other.
"Now we're walking alone on the cinder trail."
The reaper, always the reaper.
"Now I'm walking alone on the cinder trail."
Forget the cut deep in your flesh.
Face the night as it was a flash.
"Now you're walking alone on the cinder trail."
Shoot down your loose phantoms...
The king is dead and there's no other.
"Now we're walking alone on the cinder trail."

Pulverize Human Dignity
Flesh Violated
Gore On The Sheets
Crying Remains
Fragmented Self-Esteem
Pulverize Human Dignity
A Crucial Experience
Frayed Personalities
Godforsaken Rites
Cleansing Remains
Feelings Aren't Important
Gorgeousness And Health
Crying Remains
They Take Your Lust
They Take Your Pride
They Pierce And Stitch And Scorch You
And Leave You Scarred For Life
Mutilated And Traumatized
Free Like A Bird
Gun In The Mouth
Calm The Remains
Gore On The Sheets
Crying Remains
Fragmented Self-Esteem
Pulverize Human Dignity
A Crucial Experience
Frayed Personalities
Godforsaken Rites
Cleansing Remains
Feelings Aren't Important
Gorgeousness And Health
Crying Remains
They Take Your Lust
They Take Your Pride
They Pierce And Stitch And Scorch You
And Leave You Scarred For Life
Mutilated And Traumatized

A, B, C’s of Insanity
Ambiguously Breeding Confusion, Deceptive Establishments Function.
Greatly Hindering Institutions;
Justice Knowingly Lost.
Missing No Opportunity; Prisons
Quadruple Rapidly. Squandering
Talents. Ultimately Vanishing Within Xenagogues; Yielding
Zabernism.

Navalny
You kill me I get stronger
I defy your lies that you sell
You kill me ten more will come
Red and white roses are appropriate
For a HERO we don’t forget
Navalny against the Assassins
I’ll see you in my sleep Putin Cretin
Putin will die a worse death nuclear
Little man trying to stand up against
Navalny HERO in us
Putin’s chef in a plane blasted
Being silent against him
Roses are rising against Putin
Navalny death be the death of us
...

Even Sweet Girls can be Bitter Princesses
The crown is mine, said the princess
in a voice as sweet as snow.
None can play in this kingdom now.
Not a step, not a sound, not a show...
Until she says so, until she lets it go.
With a smile she took her throne
beneath the sky’s golden glow.
Her decree echoed through the land
and all the games ceased to flow.
Until she says so, until she lets it go.
The court stood silent, eyes wide,
as the princess ruled the floor.
Her presence strong, undeniable.
Her will, they would not ignore.
Until she says...
in a voice as sweet as snow.
None can play in this kingdom now.
Not a step, not a sound, not a show...
Until she says so, until she lets it go.
With a smile she took her throne

Her decree echoed through the land
and all the games ceased to flow.
