First, They Came for the Jews
I find it frustrating that I have to hide my identity.
When my gut says my tribe is plenty.
To raise my hand affects my posterity,
If I speak the truth in an academic community.
The bigots and fascist will condemn me,
Simply because I believe in national security.
In a land where you can say, "Go kill yourself" freely.
So long as you are in the liberal social monopoly.
I'm sorry but Biden's economy has me unable to eat,
And mortgage payments keep...

Indiscretions
Words are like crystals
of multifaceted rocks.
The words, secret come,
full of memories.
Insecure sail among us.
Since they are light and night.
Paraphernalia of meanings or
plethora of senses and nuances.
Vivid moments lost.
Panoply of possibilities.
In the language compendium
emerge as despots,
cruel, broken or mild,
helpless, innocent, light.
Who listens to them?
Who collects them
in their pure shells?
Evade among the foam,
Green, neutral and opalescent…
in joy they revive.

New York and it's Asinine Laws
New York has some really stupid laws
Recently I've been reading some of them
Here's a handful that are truly ridiculous
1) It's Illegal to Sell Dog or Cat hair
Well I hate both cats & dogs, so for me I think all animals should be banned
2) It's illegal to have a puppet show in your window
I've done that numerous times with placing a sock puppet on my cock
Several times my ex-girlfriend would get involved and decorate her torso and pussy with paints and makeups
Loads of fun
Many observers watched and I even...

Rise Above
Under your authority
A huge FUCK YOU towards leaders and the people that follow
You want freedom?
No government can give you freedom
There should be no reason to oppose all that isn't the truth
They'll try & condition you
Begin early a lifestyle of rebellion
Destroy what destroys you...Always!
Protest & Survive
Revolt!
Disobey!
Create a network without networking
Breakdown walls that they put up!
Stay off the grid
It's hard as Fuck, but it can be done
A corporate takeover is necessary
We can...

Boomerang ! Or Self-Destroyer ?
You do not have any friends, that's why you block those who won't talk with you.
spare yourself the trouble, you can't give what you don't have, so no need
to wear thick when its already hot, and say the sky is blue when you do not need to.
You wear red outside your house, and i know that inside you are as gray as the
walls that surround you, you can even dissolve into the walls and become a dumb,
mute stone..as well, you affect your look; your walk, you stalk the naive, introvert
ones, and you stutter like a turkey before the gentlemen, but,...

unintentional rebel
I sometimes feel I'm an earthborn paradox
an entity of murky origins
where does one fit
when mind & heart conflict
trying to exist in endless battle
loading ammunition in a shotgun missing one barrel
fighting demons with my teeth
when a pistol might serve better
eternal servant to my internal addict
craving escape from this perpetual struggle
when the best I can get is a thin beam
seen through a crack...a sliver
like light strained through frost
it's glow is lost in the maelstrom of thought
thick with society's...

reaper
I knew you'd be here
always the dormant shadow
casting a constant reminder
over everything I know
a trail of rose petals
leads me to face the open mouth
of a cold gun barrel against my lips
awaking in sweat at the pull of the trigger
follow digital breadcrumbs
to find the weasel escaped the pen
I'm in arms again from the warning sent
my nightmare guardian
it's been years since then
honestly, I don't recall most of it
twisted pleasure a mutation
of a bottom floor, two-bedroom canary
you...

Mirages In The Wind (Heavenly Wind Songs-COTS)
Hopes and dreams cannot be contained by the weeping unto thy moon
Lust unto the realms of the dark only abuses self when deafness follows, empty cries heard in the swoon
Watch the shadows of the crown to know within womanhood, love must be given unto self first
The freedom is in the movement not to allow anyone to box the human spirit and devalue its worth
Be the nurturer unto the soul of Mother Nature, her tears are the only ones unto mankind to heal the earth
It is disheartened for anyone to view this realm we call life with childlike eyes ...
Lust unto the realms of the dark only abuses self when deafness follows, empty cries heard in the swoon
Watch the shadows of the crown to know within womanhood, love must be given unto self first
The freedom is in the movement not to allow anyone to box the human spirit and devalue its worth
Be the nurturer unto the soul of Mother Nature, her tears are the only ones unto mankind to heal the earth
It is disheartened for anyone to view this realm we call life with childlike eyes ...

Deja Vu
It appears that the some ghosts of 1968
have come back to procreate
KKK marches, Campus unrest, millions in the streets in protests
it all brings back old memories I must confess
Another close American Pres. election where the Neo Fascist candidate won
leaves me with a feeling like a bitter Chicago winter with weeks with no sun
I don't know about you
but, for me it is all Deja Vu
have come back to procreate
KKK marches, Campus unrest, millions in the streets in protests
it all brings back old memories I must confess
Another close American Pres. election where the Neo Fascist candidate won
leaves me with a feeling like a bitter Chicago winter with weeks with no sun
I don't know about you

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.

Juicy Fighter
what are you waiting for?
Come on, go fight...
if life only gives you lemons
squeeze them into other people's eyes...

red petal flowers
muddled,
red petal
flowers
bright
and dried,
using
the paint
from
her veins.
