Because !!!
Because i am black
this cafe is for the white
Because i am poor
This avenue is for the rich
And because i am a native resident
This town is only for the civilized
And because i am a believer
This church is for the atheists
******
And because and because and because !!!!
And because you say i am bad,
So all the world agrees with the fact
That me being bad, makes me an easy target
And because you are the chief
So all you say must be,...

Sore - just another running metaphor
Your words blurred
as I hit play on a
Frieda McFadden
plot twister
and slip my
phone in my pocket.
My lips part in a full-teeth-grimace
when I grab my ankle for
a stretch
against the
screaming protest
from my abs and
shoulders and
legs and…
Fuck.
I ache.
Everywhere.
Athletes start to loose
muscle tone after three
weeks of inactivity
Three weeks.
I was knocked out
for...

A conversation in my head
So , listen Rob, I really think you and I should have a conversation
Ive been sitting here quiet giving you time but Im starting to lose my patience
You brood and you sulk and pity yourself
And frankly its not good for our health
Youre dragging me down, always depressed
Just being around you is hard to digest
Im craving something more from life than this miserable existence
Everything's crashing down around us and you put up no resistance
Do you think the world just revolves around you?
That what you do doesn't affect me too? ...

Night vision
Crossing borders Canada never been here before.
Whole drive my mind and heart tore.
I still see you my love tears fill my eyes I still adore
Tree after tree each kilometer pass.
Pull up for petrol back out fast.
I'll break the steering wheel I don't ease my grasp.
Out by a lake British Colombia has peace.
Some lady won't quit speaking, go away please.
You don't know me not in the least.
I dint want to talk or eat with you.
I want to be alone is that wrong to do.
I had to move before my temper blew.

Kino Hospital
Been in psych before,
but Kino’s the worst,
Don’t know how people are supposed to get better
in a place like this,
The air is stale,
no open windows,
no fan, no fresh water
Man, stay calm,
I gotta breath
fresh clean air, I thirst…
Nurses & orderlies on power trips
they do not try, no,
No help or relief comin from them,
No private shower,
you use the public shower,
Where you walk in barefoot
with the shit stains on the shower floor & wall,
no warm water, just ice cold water,
that stays on for 15...

Silence can be louder than words
I'm sorry I haven't been the greatest company lately.
I have thoughts in my head,
That are driving me crazy.
I am Sick to my stomach,
I'm feeling so weak.
So much at once.
I cannot speak,
Or think
Or breathe.
How do I breathe?
In.
and out.
In
and out.
Here I go again.
Down this fucking rabbit hole,
Jokes are not always funny,
Sometimes you're just
playing a fool in a funny hat.
Like the cat said,
We're all mad here.
But...

The addiction
Somewhere in time and space,
Someone saw what shouldn’t be seen,
Filled the demand on the world’s most powerful desire,
A trap that is very hard to escape, burning more than fire.
In self exploration, you eat without eating,
Like a dog salivating without feeding,
Craving for more, ready to crash anything that obscures vision,
Staring upon glass, like narcissus adoring his own reflection.
After many days of hunger and lust,
They were enticed to cut their bodies last,
Eat their own flesh and blood, they couldn’t endure no more, ...

your feelings don't matter
There's something so fucking hollow
In knowing you won't be at the top
Of my message lists anywhere anymore
That I'll never share with you again
No videos, no memes, and no thoughts
Cutting you out of me will take some time
I won't ruminate about you thinking of me
The possibility that maybe you'll miss me
Just enough to show up at my door
We both know you would never do that
You have never been afraid to lose me
And now I am gone from your presence
How long until your new relationship breaks?
Because of the broken parts in...

And now I am gone from your presence
How long until your new relationship breaks?
