Taking Over
A new force has risen. The good old days are done
We reinvent this system. A new age has begun
Alliance of disappointed members who have now conjoined
We share the same disgusts. It's time to feel our wrath
We'll knock you out in one breath
It's our turn to converge
The world needs to be cleansed of all the putrid noise
This pursuit that we chase, the fight is our life choice
Our honor should not be mocked. We're justified to protect it
Try and you will get fucked and you shall feel our wrath
We'll take you down in one breath
It's...

Candace Queen a light in a dark world
oppression is real
you can feel the weight of it on your soul
some bear the pain of this day and out
they walk on like soldiers
fighting a war most people don't see
poverty teaches you how to be grateful
for the most basic things
like a bed to sleep in
or food to eat
warm clothes
some go into battle without any of these things
these warriors navigate the world fiercely
that their souls can war with these demons
is nothing short of amazing to me
I was in the city only three days
a concrete hell...

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
When is enough is a enough of the genuine lies, without the truth to navigate through the process of the lies.
🤨 For when is it enough when you continue, to stand by the Democrats and the demographics, of the false propaganda feeding you more lies. For sure when is enough that you finally learn how to use, your own thoughts and insight and mind. To find out for yourself really the TRUTH, just by DOING your Research in the archives. Section of your OWN Google app just by writing a NAME ?? FOR example of any anyone whoever, was into politics, from when they first started to up to...

GIANTS
Greed drives those in power hungry for more
Taking away from those who have less
Lobbying because they want to rule the world
And in the process stunting any forward progress
And they linger, like titans muscling the weak
With a lust that can never be satisfied
An avarice that is unyielding and building
A society with a great divide
But behold, there comes a warrior
A champion who will take up the fight
And they will change the course of history
The tipping point when the moment is right
It’s the old story of David...

Motives
One of the reasons that MAGA folks get so hung up on the letter of the law, particularly the specifics that their lawyers can semantically sabotage to their own perverted ends, is so that they can more readily mask their deep seated desire to use the law as a jurisprudentially rubber stamped vehicle to vicariously deliver the punishment that scratches their continual sadism itch, which they will never admit to.
And of course their deep seated desire for seeing punishment delivered leads to the ceaseless miscarriages of justice, that are so shocking to the rest of us, yet it is the...

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."

Beauty
I'm a beautiful girl
In a fucked up world
I'm a treasure amongst meaningless shit
I'm a truth in a whole
I live without soul
Trust me, I'm broken
I'm chipping away.
I'm a beautiful girl
I'm perfection to a tee
I'm blown in a blast of jealousy
I have a lesser troubling me
I'm a mind in a box
I'm selfish, I'm a fox
The people around me
Gather with squinty eyes
I'm a beautiful girl
I'm a fading gem being chipped away
I'm lost in a paradigm
Gold for a superficial mind
I'm...

To see love win
I cannot change the system from within,
so why stay here, stuck in the status quo?
I know I might not live to see love win.
When frightened minds see human love as sin
and power players change rules as they go,
it’s risky changing systems from within.
I feel the judgement even from my kin,
who say that change is moving far too slow
and don’t have time to wait to see love win.
But change by force will only change the spin,
as new oppressors rise up from below.
To end the cycle, hearts must change within.

The War of Molecules
The whirling world is war.
In the darkness the star -
Fights against strenuous gravity
To hold itself together
and not fall into event horizons
that loom - across spaces like black lights of doom.
Even within the star -
there is war -
as molecules move about in frenzies
and furore -
shifting into themselves and transforming
into new forms with new functions...
And still at war -
bursting forth – in nameless anonymities
criss crossing and drawing strange symbols
seen only by...

Anticipating the taunt
Of a spellbound fate was
Like irony for some
Vicarious shame,
Bringing loneliness
To those of whom
Have beckoned, trekked,
Waited for poetic justice in the
Retribution of intrusive
Marketing that shrouds, hides.
Masterful callousness,
Pretending to never feel,
Mocked and laughed at
The innocent wonder
Of familiar reminiscence,
Like insisting favor
Was sensual, assuming an
Embarrassing tease,
Reinforcing the numb veracity
Of what carnality was worth. ...

unfortunate
my name’s smith, he said,
which they assumed was
an alias, but which
unfortunately wasn’t, since
they hanged him, thinking
he was somebody else
entirely, and thus he
ended up entirely dead
