Grey Skies
Three years have come and passed. Three years till I am thirty. Oh, how time has passed. Nineteen in Europe still feels at arm's length, yet it is merely a dream. And yet, in my dream, I am dragged into the catacombs. I cry out for aid, but no one is there to save me. I fight against my aggressors, but an even more vigorous beating meets every effort to escape. The only questions in my mind are, will my inability to fall into line and believe the lies that come out of the mouth of the clerisy land me in prison? Will I be able to stand defiant in front of the tyrant when the day comes? ...

Birthright
I deserve
You deserve
We deserve
We deserve better than this
I’m not inspired to fight for the freedom
To be a parasite
To say anything, consequence-free
To live in denial, delusion and distraction
To worship the “free market” and its occupying armies
To destroy the very planet we share
To commodify everyone and everything we love
To hate everything we are
“Freedom to” can become “freedom over”
When it flows from a society divided
I’ve earned
You’ve earned
Everything I have,...

Holding Back the Blue Rot !
Holding Back the Blue Rot” [Blue Rot = the Police State]
I am not the bridge, I am the Keystone, the Arch, the Matriarchal form of being.
I am without racism, without Rot and free to stand a protectorate, a dome, the whole, the womb.
My back is no bridge, yet my shoulders are my cornerstones, my devout legs my pillars of foundation.
My skull, the beauty, a keystone of balance and wedged pressure holding the arch of time.
Again without ROT! A void with no haunted racial overtones, having to explain but when, when, when will the pure...

You Probably Won't Read This But it's the Truth.
I have no fucks to give
about your politics
if it's not for the people
then it's not by the people
any other argument is irrelevant
Trump is a traitorous piece of shit
tried to over throw the government
and wants to get rid of the constitution
but go on about Hunter Biden's nudes
such fucking hypocrites
truly disturbing how some of you talk
selling out democracy
over republican fear mongering
I don't like Biden
but I'll vote for him over capitalist
treating hard workers as pawns
being told the election was stolen...

In the shade of immortal white towers.
Alongside life's clear river dwelling,
And amid endless undying flowers.

Many thanks for your highly generous offer re: funding of the promotional tour.
Will be arriving Yeoville, Tuesday 24th with full entourage. Remainder of trip to be completed on unicycles as per contract.
I trust all our special dietary requirements will be covered including copious fresh shrimp for the two red lipped batfish.
Can you guarantee adequate security or should we pack flak jackets?

Disturbing news.
Pilot and co pilot stricken with amoebic dysentery mid-flight forcing diversion to Hosea Kutako. Red lipped bat fish not happy with...

Ancient Memories Part II: The Wrath of the Golden Queen
- Ancient Memories Part II: The Wrath of the Golden Queen -
Terra Nithal had been our home for many long years. In our time there, Sapphira and I had actually allowed ourselves the luxury of losing tack of time. But now, time had caught up to us and with time came the encroachment of destiny. Sapphira was the absolute queen of that world, but her heart was also among the stars as ever it was with her people. She was the reincarnation of their legendary first queen, A'drahla, a woman who was deified long ago and worshiped in various places all across that particular galaxy. She was...

The Final Days of Lan'ka: Ancient Memories
- The Final Days of Lan'ka: Ancient Memories -
I could hear the sounds of rushing water, growing louder and louder... and my head was hurting, my body aching, my soul screaming on inside of me. “Gislu! Gislu! Hurry to me, Gislu!” a woman's voice called... and tears were streaming down my face. I could not speak, I could not find the heart to voice words fit for the moment. The painful moment. As if all I ever knew was pain, and as if pain were all I would yet know. The place was dark, filled with pipes through which fluids were being pumped. Wires and over a thousand times a...

A balding commie acting all swasty
Haha, it wasn’t that long ago that he was considered swarthy
He went all Darwin and genetics trying to lighten up his seed
When Yakub alone experimented with lightening the breed
The Cheddar Man followed the ice as it receded north
The reflection of the sun off of the ice brought the blue eye forth
Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians, Swedes, and Germans
Were unwanted, swarthy in complexion, according to Ben Franklin not Peewee Herman
They were a danger to New England’s whiteness, considered the...

A Station Break
I had to ponder the right words to utilize when giving fairness to such a sensitive piece.
If you had the chance to reclaim a territorial land that was once a part of your sovereign, denounce their political freedom, invade their boarders, and bring discontent and sheer chaos to its citizens, annihilate cities that were once erected, grounded universities where its members of its society ventured into for a sense of higher learning. If you are indeed a person of human compassion, you would most likely answer, no.
However, we must all remember every country has a past and...
