68/M A poet of sorts...an Artist of surreal design! tilt the photo and watch it change! Maybe!
the world isn't going crazy, it is just allowing the sausage making …to be out in the open . Actually, there's not much wrong, with all they are doing, or what they continue to do ,,,and even what they once did. Not when you consider, an extruder machine have to be maintained, refilled and.. every once in awhile stripped bare, wiped clean, …sterilized, and then recognized as the problem. When individuality becomes, the latest fatality, due to how no one emphasizes those facts… that symbolizes how long, deep and convoluted the backtrail has always been. Centuries of movements without forward progress, does not allow the disconnect …to effect… the traditionalist or the tradition And to be honest, its easy to understand. how some types of mammals cannot see themselves - as clones. They allow how the maga hat Is no different than the color of tie each partisan participant .. chooses to buy… ...with any predominance of red .. proclaimed to be… Simply nothing more than a coincidence… Certainly not anything that represents lack of individuality, When conformation is confused with confirmation we will all suffer due to…. so much time being wasted K seeking to prove THAT… people are different than the color tie… they choose to wear. Yet ,to exist without a single thought, about the way they fought. . to justify the hat as just a fashion accessory, or MAGA as a humanitarian outrigger - dedicated... to the transparency that does not come from clarity. It comes deliberately wrapped in rapt confusion, denying facts, as little more than mass delusion while all dissent is meant to foster regrowth ,of what once had been a stagnant, and dwindling roster. History always tries to repeat, making whole the incomplete As maga hats are... todays version, of yesterdays cover sheets.

The function of a compunction is to create an injunction self-made and righteously inflicted. All born again and self - restricted Brings pause to cause beyond the flaws ... ...of man honed laws and those unfortunately too weak to rumble...who then begin to tumble down as if afflicted Primed to be indicted. If that last words was read as a synonym of afflicted then maybe you too need to take two seconds to let them there have their way until they think their not indictable.

I was an open book until they made me disappear. something inside like an earthquake shook pulling me away from my atmostfear Now I'm a symbolic sign. a set of  numbers and more in a closed file I have to be more than just a single line A walking metamorphosis agreeing to nothing except total denial Any postmortem Resistance Isn't  really worth waiting for seeking a symbol that I resemble the ticking clocks hands fell to the floor refusing to tell what the time is now or how much more we possess till we are marched into the human corral Victims of conformity while under duress what's the deal with all this preparation cannot store up MRIs for the duration heated by the glowing ashes once our nation freedom used to assault freedom is desecration stumbling along and through by mechanination worn down, worn out .worn over and over and warned about My reality's ability to remain speculation As seen by the eye in the sky always looking around Never be peace beyond the victory station When ICE remains within the veins chilling the blood to quash liberation When freedom takes Liberty to Injustice… … prosecution wlll be all that remains

Injustice for all
Inspirations are like shadows....and always return by KwF Keith w Fletcher Sept 6 2025 *** note *** diring a time when a lack of humanities light allowed uninspired shadows to hide in evil deeds false light. EVIL HIDES FROM LIGHT SHADOWS NEVER WILL ! .. Thats why? I often tell people That is not the things you create, The things you build The tree you plant in the backyard. the kids will swing on. The generations Is not the endowment you make or the company you build. It is not the artwork you produce or the story you write, nor Is it the music you make That plays on for generations That should be seen as your legacy? It's the things that you inspire ,through the next generation that creates a lasting memory, of who you were . Even though forgotten, anonymous ( now or tomorrow ).or ,even hailed as a genius... all will fade to dust ,body , personality and living achievements.,.but just like DNA, a small drop of our existance carries on, and carries us forward.. and whether a teacher ,a preacher ,a barber or a cop. An architect , an operator or an innovator anything one inspires into the ever growing history of another , and in turn., ...they do the same ppl and history will,.. always see you as an eternal light , a flickering flame and will know you maybe not by name by the shadows cast by sunlight, electric... or flickering flame those are the source the living young futures brighter light dim as our existance or bright ás a midday sun we as 1 de mention able shadow will forever dance And we still exist beyond any faded or dying light to always return from darkness as some inspired thought will do .... ...for light does not create us nor can darkness push us away for we exist within either remaining eternal as time once existing as light inspiring shadows dance then we faded into that future to become part of the - not darkess- just the lacking of light And just like shadows inspiration never disappears it simply waits to be needed just out of sight

Hopelessness is the most damaging addiction in the universe ...it has no cure ,no interdiction no laws against or legal restriction. No easy to see physical manifestations, often no outward signs of causing self - limitations. Those who hide it best are often the ones.... ...needing someones help the most, but they can't ask others to help carry the load .., while those who write it in bright flashing neon on their face,, go from stepping just fine to having a limp when they come into another person's view, they spill their guts like a shamed Samurai doing Hara Kiri suicide , and makes it twice as hard... to see the signs of those in need... ...Those who are the best at locking it deep inside... ....until that time you hear yourself saying ...What!! "wait ...WAIT! they did what? When ...? Where? *** I never ...saw ... any..." Oh ...yes you di....yes WE did!

Hopelessness
ALONG WITH YOU INSTEAD! by Keith W Fletcher written on January 26th 2025. If your world is turning circles And the dizzier you get don't try to stand in defiance Of all those things you'll soon forget The baggage that we come with Doesn't dictate who We are Unless you try to carry it forever No matter how far… …You want to go in that direction You want to reach up and touch the star Add it to your collection Of Bright lights trapped in a jar You can't turn a Grand illusion Into a bygone memory Without acknowledging the confusion That surrounds you as far as you can see Let It Go and slip from your hand Dont look behind you and try to keep track Of any footprints left in the sand to help you find your way back You won't need any signs to help you To reach those lights ahead Just leave your past in the rearview And carry your future along with you… …Along with you instead.

ALONG WITH YOU INSTEAD
 Keith W Fletcher   Poems   PUBLIC EDIT May 2019 Looking for a way ... Looking for an more dignified way to commit suicide one that won't be so much a mess I can shoot myself I might miss and if I didn't it would still Leave a mess and I guess really isn't very dignified so ...     ...I could leap out in front of some moving car but then again I don't know who those people are it may cause them to have a wreck Either way What or how the heck Could any of that be dignified To ruin somebody else's life would not ever be dignified I guess I could take a lot of drugs overdose but who knows I might just end up going out and have a good time To wake up the next day find out that you were the life of the party ...and that everybody had a great time Though i haven't a clue What party where'" I went to...?" No clue who Sent the message I got 46 friend requests And 17 new friends...OH no! Thats not something you do just before you want it all to end Thats definitely undignifying I guess I could leap off Some tall building enjoy the ride all the way down unless of course you look and see  down  below something you couldn't know A older lady getting out of the car Or a nanny with a baby carriage you know youve gone way too far cant  stop now and you know cannot change your direction so.. NO! ...that's not a very good selection And definitely not to be considered dignified I guess I could go jump in the lake drown myself since I cannot swim not very well at least but ohhhhh would be one easy way but then again I can say I've seen those people they finally dredge up All bloated white and sickly green.. ...no way  is that dignified I guess I could try to hang myself but then again that might to lead to something else if I didn't die I might just try to figure out how to do it again Because it was sort of ****** fun Ive seen those people on tv news Live or die that's not the one one Found like that can't be  dignified I just about run out of ways to think about how I could do it I guess I really always knew .....all along what was really true there's nothing dignified about suicide ever...unless maybe if you were to leap onto a live grenade in order to save every one around you or if you were to step in front of a bullet run out into traffic in order to push someone out of the way I can say it's true that in a sense it would be suicidal In its own way because you chose to do what you did but any of those circumstances messy or not you died with pride and that  will always be... ....dignified . But not suicide. What follows is a poetic rant ..about something I would like to understand... ...but simply can't. NO EXPLANATION. by KwF. 60/22/2024 Sometimes I get lost As is the cost ... When entering Into the disturbingly undisturbed   Placid waters of ... ...another person's mind where i might find a Deadpool of stagnant growth Within the water And the shoreline both Barren , and lifeless landscapes As uninviting As any closed loop And just as disabling in it lack Of ability to escape All of which ... ...I resist in any shape It may appear As unconditional acceptance or coersion by the tip of a spear... So I saw no choice but to simply remove my voice As in the poem herein attached Is ...and will remain Although the group Where the poem was posted And in which I remained for 4 short hours Until the powers That shouldn't be no Decided to inquire Of me ...what the words were meant to engender And I fell far short If any understanding  ... What's such a statement or question was demanding so I picked up my one and only poem ,the artwork that went with and stepped away not to return because no poet it's going to readily explain what they mean and take away another's  ability to expand or they wouldn't be a poet so to that admin I have to say I simply walked ....away with ease Because what I am saying now or in the poem is true And you know it too .

There are those I suppose who will forever fail to disclose that the king is without his clothes when everyone else surely knows that he shows what pales the light and assails the sight endured to never a chance of being cured from the deathnell dirge and primal scourge as we wait the innocent child within to emerge and purge us all our weak and wavering courage how weak a mind have we to find ,within this immense emptiness we occupy such a lie as to accept innocence as our saving grace when all within us are the empty places our clothes seek to hide for we have clothes without souls!
