Landscape with Fall of Democracy
If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher.
As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”
- Abraham Lincoln
SHAMERICA YOU CHARLATAN, YOU RUBE,
When it comes time to write
Your fall, let it be said
You leapt giddily off the edge, and took bodily the rest,
For reasons lost to sense,
Like lemmings trailing blindly
The worst among us all.
But...
As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”
- Abraham Lincoln
SHAMERICA YOU CHARLATAN, YOU RUBE,
When it comes time to write
Your fall, let it be said
You leapt giddily off the edge, and took bodily the rest,
For reasons lost to sense,
Like lemmings trailing blindly
The worst among us all.

Citizens of the Pipeline Empire
Diddy going to jail is like rewarding him for his alleged crime
It’s just giving him unlimited access to confined behind,
“Now instead of licking pink waterfalls
He will be licking dick and balls,
“Now he is running hard like a mangy dog in a shelter’s backyard
Thinking he’s free until that choking chain cut off his bark,
“That is how many of us live our everyday life
Dining on danger and dancing on the edge of the nuclear knife,
“Being only one terrorist act away from the eternal black
Now you slave...

Her Magic Dragon
It had a special golden glow by the way the shadows made no effect on this egg. The elf queen had never seen such a large nest before. Dragons were rare and rarely had nests out in the grassy open plains like this.
Tia had no idea what creature was inside this giant scaly egg. It was sparkly and had a slight pale blue mist around it. She could feel the magnetic field pulsing and drawing her to it as she touched the surface.
She waited, since upon seeing it noticed that it had a large crack as if about to split open anytime.
What seemed an eternity suddenly...

The one principle that surrounds everything else is that of
stewardship; that we are the managers of everything that
God has given us.—”Larry Burkett
it must be for the greater good
that some above the crowds have stood,
while others on the edge of life repine;
the stewardship of every man
must be to serve a nobler plan
than pick his teeth and phartz above cloud nine.
the lawyer in sartorial guise
must not the ass...

Gino & Poppy
It was the early 2010s, another pissed up night at the boozer.
A young Gino Corona was spending all of his dosh, like a loser!
He had long hair in a bun and a wife-beater to show his guns.
Flossing a big chunky chain on his neck to show his funds.
His wife and his kid at home would wonder where he might be?
Either way she knew, he would be pissed up, somewhere out of his tree.
In the gritty town of Swansea, it was raw, rough, and ready.
They lived in a grotty flat in the moody streets of Sketty.

Somewhere, SomeTime
I always find my alter ego, whenever i roam the rocky hills, or skipping right out from home, into
the pine forest on the village fringe, where the pure breeze inspires the pastoral themes..
where life in its prime tells the truth, the wisdom and the sincere feeling.There ! is my Home !
i sat on the hilltop watching the tiny village stretching below,"my bled" lost in a foggy silent indolence,
where carelessness and dark interests breed inside empty coffee shops, and shady nooks; and dark corners....
where kids in their blooming age reap what the bad...

The Puppet Master
When I signed
The application
No idea of
THE JOB
I didn't feel
the strings attach
nor the latches from
THE SOD.
It took too long to notice
what I had become
stuck inside a wooden box
that only made
ME NUMB.
I thought about
the words I used
to capture all of my skills.
not knowing this
would mean a place
for you to catch
YOUR THRILLS.
For now I see
they were so cheap
they only give me chills
Turning to a monster
had been one of ...

Sniper Files #3 The Kill
As the moon hung low in the night sky, casting shadows across the deserted alley, I watched them from the rooftop opposite the dimly lit apartment building. The general's daughter, Olena, stood on the balcony, her silhouette joined by that of her lover, Andrei. They seemed lost in each other, unaware of the danger lurking in the darkness below.
I adjusted the scope on my rifle, my breath steady despite the adrenaline coursing through my veins. This was the moment I had trained for, the mission I had been assigned by my superiors. But as I stared through the crosshairs, doubt...

Bend towards Justice
So, now that I’m officially running for President in 2024
It’s time I start campaigning seriously
And stop bullshittin’ y’all, cause to my pleasant surprise,
Y'all actually listen to what I’m talkin’ about
I really didn’t think that’ y’all did and I apologize, so let’s start from the beginning
My name is Ashley
Zay, Zaddy, Zim, Zerr are my preferred pronouns
My sun sign is Virgo
In 2023, the disturbing realizations of constant conflict, must be brought to a head as the people need to identify their real enemies, and not their neighbors

A Fathers heart
In the depths of a father's soul, a story unfolds,
Of sacrifice and pain, too great to be told.
For in the shadows, I silently carry the weight,
Protecting my children, their futures secure and straight.
Through sleepless nights and weary days,
I labor on, my love never sways.
For my children's dreams, my heart does bleed,
A silent warrior, fulfilling every need.
In my tired eyes, wisdom lines lie deep,
Etched by battles fought, secrets I'll forever keep.
I shield them from the darkness that may come,
Guiding them...
Of sacrifice and pain, too great to be told.
For in the shadows, I silently carry the weight,
Protecting my children, their futures secure and straight.
Through sleepless nights and weary days,
I labor on, my love never sways.
For my children's dreams, my heart does bleed,
A silent warrior, fulfilling every need.
In my tired eyes, wisdom lines lie deep,
Etched by battles fought, secrets I'll forever keep.
I shield them from the darkness that may come,
Guiding them...

Population of Earth
The existence of humans has not been threatened with extinction since homo sapiens appeared. Our human population was under 1 million prior to that time frame, around 10,000 BCE. During this previous era humans were below 1 million a lot of the time.

Since 1800 population increases have been continuous. Although this peaked in 1962–63, and has slowed it hasn’t really dropped completely. Yet, the UN has a lot to say about the opposite happening, I believe this is propaganda. Demographers have totally opposing...

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,...
