The scaffolding will

The Great Replacement Theory And Abortion
Yes, people pull the trigger - but guns are the instrument of death. Gun control is necessary, and delay means more death and horror. Eliot Spitzer
I had the idea to start my Sunday off with writing about a controversial element that has hindered our nation, and that is the debate of pro-life versus pro-choice. In more subtle terms, abortion, however an act of hate has consumed New York, yet once again.
I am stunned regarding the mental breeding of why someone within this day and age who still fosters a new millennium of creating a superior race, that ideology has held...

Ain't That A shame
Ain't that a shame
in a fool's paradise
of bastards rapport
with tattooed fame
running to twilight
embracing false kings
listening to echoes
scream of red eye
tasting the blood
a new coffin rising
with a choir of cicadas
spawning horehounds
in dark's candy store
breaking the mainspring
of the Energizer Bunny
tapping his tummy
in a fool's paradise
in a fool's paradise
of bastards rapport
with tattooed fame
running to twilight
embracing false kings
listening to echoes
scream of red eye
tasting the blood
a new coffin rising
with a choir of cicadas
spawning horehounds
in dark's candy store
breaking the mainspring
of the Energizer Bunny
tapping his tummy
in a fool's paradise

Campaign 2024
Good evening, Ladies and Gentlemen!
My name is Ashley M. Hardy, and I am running for President of the United States
I’m back!!!
And I’ve waited four long years for this day
You don’t need an explanation to understand that ain’t shit change
More Americans are still in debt
The minimum wage hasn’t caught up with the cost of living yet
Lead poisoning is threatening the health of our citizens
Babies are getting sicker
The sewage system hasn’t been updated in half a century
The Criminal justice system doesn’t operate...

Writes Itself
Saying the very least
he’s a curious,
yet an inglorious beast.
Today, too early
our doorstep darkens
Topped by camo,
MAGA ball cap
sporting NRA polo
Predictable, comical ensemble
Thank goodness
I was taking a nap
Or, try as I might,
I could not
have stifled a laugh
A partial motive
for his ridiculous attire
To thumb his nose
at his California kin
Believing that by nature
and location of birth
I’m ultra liberal
Innately prone to sin
While my informed
estimation of him

Admit It
To hear the words coming out of her mouth that she knew I despised
Still spitting venom as the life fled from her eyes
She was a force to be reckoned with, no one could deny
As she laid there dying, she said you're dead but will not die
I felt a cold hand grip my heart in the middle of a beat
I watched as she fought for her last breath, gripping the sheets
Little did I know that I had just been cursed
Little did I know the tighten around my heart would only get worse
I watched as a small trail of blood slid down the side of her face

Capitalism is Terrorism
Respect the sistah that sits there and reads for you
See, The economy is a study of the way production is paid,
In land, labor, wages and taxes
The actual point of Capitalism is to extract more cash from production and away from labor leaving wealth accumulation unregulated for some people
The sky's the limit but the pie isn’t divided equally
Like, Property for example,
Back then,
We had to work on the land we couldn’t own and Child labor laws didn’t exist
Millions of acres stolen and it didn’t matter what was on paper
Then, Predatory...

New age of bellicosity
Wars all around the world
It's always the same
But now everyone wants more weapons
They believe the propaganda
"More weapons mean more security"
The opposite is true
This madness won't stop if we continue walking this path
It might just get worse
The only ones benifitting are weapon industries
There are no winners
At least not among citizens
Everyone looks to Ukraine and Russia
But when turkey drops bombs everyone looks away
Its always been this way but now pacifists are called friends of Putin...
