A cataract to truth is cloudy violence A cataract to truth just spits at science You wear Your home team tinfoil hat no need for jabs, don’t wear a mask You spend your cash as you make it fast No time for “them” or your income tax A cataract to truth is cloudy violence A cataract to truth just spits at science You live in your fog of privilege you’re rich white trash and you’re ignorant You’d rather lose a hand than help an immigrant But your daddy got you shares in his business You wear Your home team tinfoil hat a pricey suit but still no class. Ya Gammon, Ya Gammon You ******* soulless Gammon. ~ I Everett

Gammon
People are mean they prey on weakness they circle it like buzzards to a dying goat, People are mean they hold each other down whilst jumping ahead like rats on a sinking ship, People are mean they change so slowly and then they never look back like slugs crawling at night Invisible by dawn, People are mean alright They rob, They **** They ****** but the meanest thing of all They ignore, They ignore their neighbours They ignore their family They ignore their hearts People are mean, mean to themselves.

Nature will have her way, She will laugh in the darkness, it will not be long until there is nothing left but bone and marrow, and in a coal face a mile wide, there will be diamonds shining like the first stars, as the world ceases its turn, the oceans will dry, all the noise will finally die, and the only question left to ask of man and beast will be why? why did the gods bother at all? we are sickly despots, far from evolved, killing just to live another day,   all in all a perfect failure, all in all a disaster piece.

Disaster-piece
Not a god, not a poem, not a love song, not a stranger’s-hand thumping the chest, nor a preacher perusing the words he has to sell, not a broken bone set or the warmth of a mother’s love. Just a finite moment expressed  in the tears of a lost memory, leaking from the eye of fragile flesh. Not a god, not a poem, not a love song. Just a final breathe.

Final Breathe
To Love a Writer you must be brave, eager to read the words you would rather hear. To Love a Writer you must be prepared, for days hidden from the sun, a symptom of the disease. To Love a Writer you must be crazy, ignore the insomnia and fight for attention at night. but know this .. If a Writer Loves You, their Love is complete, you are amazing to them, they will dream of you often, in ink forevermore.
