Order (The Second Installment)
Yet we have not mastered the same
Dogma that dictates the motion of skies
Among the
Protons and neutrons for
Laws exacting consistency; with their
Heavens upstaging the
Arrangement of an
Able bodied solar system to
Raise order for 8 or 9 planets and
Even within that
Order reigns
Chaos codified in its
Babble expression with all
The separate disciplines
Coming out of those
Discoveries to
Muster up that next consolation
Prize:
Accolade
Thanks to a
Handle on natural selection
Committed to...

Divide
Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead (Original)
So my main home girl and I use to dress alike on some nights but everybody knew they’re just friends. We’re doing what upstairs dykes do in the bar, which is shoot pool to the death. Fresitababes comes over and says “that girl is looking at you” at which point we turn around to see which one hmpf and my response was “that’s nice.” I look at a couple of items up here too; regulars. I don’t even know who that is. She’s uh well represented; diesel dyke: unknown variable. Next thing I know they both come over after we take our shot. Sporty spice...

Flush It Away
Will democracy
be flushed away like a turd?
A bad day for all.

Juxtaposition
Something was always eating me; some depression, my personality and my fears about the future were staring at me. This is tornado-chat name/embarrassment…we were in bed this weekend she was off duty (military) so we could spend time together. Distant was not new to the lifestyle but we were messing around (what gfs do) despite being miles away. She’s observing something pinching my chin and says “baby, you’re not ready” (not what worst case scenario was expecting) but when you are “I’m going to”… and at the same time did something to me. Not everyone’s a take advantage of the situation type,...

U Politic
(We have at least 1 colleague who loves us, in spite of ourselves. I said something about rough and she says “you know; life is a lot rougher on people than it use to be.” I hear ya.)

Withdrawn was talking to its WGS professor and she was chatty, which can be advantageous. She inquired about the focus of our thesis. Oblivion told and she says “did Jeff (professor beep yes men’s health care/gay and head of my thesis committee) tell you about his upcoming research?” “No.” She revealed and gave us time to do our own mental...

Show off
Go ahead, showcase the homeless problem,
instead of trying to solve them
with bricks and mortar
you instead boast about giving them food and water,
put your money where your mouth is and build,
instead of housing those who can afford the bills,
And if, just for one second we could put the brakes on
stop the mounting numbers and reduce immigration,
don’t get me wrong,
I’m not saying all together
we should completely cut the tether
but please understand this better,
we can’t provide for who’s here already, which minimises our...

Politician Repetition
My mission to improve the cognition of the opposition with my rendition sparks the ignition for those to examine the conditions which public servants such as politicians actually live in and compare it to the position we’re in and in addition remember they aren’t magicians not everything they say comes to fruition but these people don’t need to audition for the role only their ambition keeps us on the road to perdition yet they’d prosecute for sedition and probably call this ammunition instead they’d have us make an omission rather we lived in our partitions as still this seems to be a war of...

Mud
So sports hit the bar
And then they were
Cherry picking
(Some of the girls had in mind
Who they wanted to see in a
String bikini) for
Lesbian mud wrestling
I know you’re signing up
Huh!? No. Here’s my thought
I don’t wanna be in that
Close of a proximity to any
Woman I’m not sleeping with
Breasts popping out and shit…
It’s not pride and I only did that 1 year; to
Shut them bitches up but uh
The sponsors were in pursuit of
Cover charges, certain
Body types/ demographics

Intimacy 2
My main home girl
Was like so what’s going
On with you and the
Bartender now? She must’ve seen my face;
I was too embarrassed to tell her
What happened
Because if I can’t do anything for you
Then when I shouldn’t be accepting your shit
I personally would’ve rather to have
Gone downstairs to pay for drinks and came back up but
Here’s the thing…
I had bumped heads with the bartender downstairs lmao
If I sent my homegirl downstairs then I would’ve had to
Explain what had transpired ...

Collusion Confusion
I tire of accusations
Of Trump and collusion
Let's not be Russian
To unfounded conclusions
Not to be Stalin
But best be Putin
Our judgements off till
Mueller's investigation
Has proved that urine
Is communist baptism

Women’s March
Feminism at its finest:
The women’s march, a noble cause
Fight for equality, for women all
Wait, you don’t like Jews,
Catholics, or pro-life women?
Thought you fought
for all women?

Gender Expression
(Yea so you’re doing what you say they do..so I’m gonna play the Machine for everybody… Machine - There But for the Grace of God Go)
Impurities should
lessen
when filtered through the
distillers of
love
for them to
variegate and
bandage
themselves
filling cavities
at the shaft of
compact
bone
boiling
disgruntled
ideologies;
“repressions”
(about gender expression)
down to
mere
marrow.
and its not...well she's the butch shes the femme..i get to...and she dont get...
