A hit below the belt
just so it’s felt
You’re a cynical *******
I’ll fight back with my words instead
Get this message
I won’t back down
I’ll flaunt victory
And buy you a round after the fact
We’ll get to fighting
It’ll be over fast
Let’s go have another, eh

There was a snake
That lived in a cake
And he whispered sweat lies
He came last week
To sue for peace
With a pair of bankrupt eyes

There’s a woman
Who lives in a thimble
She wanted to be a *** symbol
She was attractive there’s no doubt
But her actions were saved when the internet  went out

Their was a cactus
Short and stout
He was thirsty
“ Water” he’d shout
puridy me and make me whole
Holes in my border I’ll make swole
My country needs so I’ll chrun out shots
Of myself in the form of acid rain

If you wrote to a goddess
What would you say
Would you present her with thanks
And walk away?

If you wrote to a goddess
What would you do
To justify your apreciation
Austere and true
Without coming across as juvenile, unfettered, or lewd

If you wrote to a goddess
How would you start
Bearing in mind
She may not be a lover
With the same heart

If you wrote to a goddess
Who would cry first
Would it be tears of joy or regret
Would your writers voice come naturally
Or is the pens cadence over rehearsed

Sometimes I write without reason
the meaning comes later
Natural spewing of syllables
Usually appear organized
We they don’t
I take minutes to jot down
My thoughts

(what makes this great)
I’m very productive and
(It’s always good)
To write more
(I’m inspired constantly)
You should be to

Phrases, words, and metaphors
Overthinking nevermore
Evermore pages should get filled
It’s easy
Writers block doesn’t exist
Unless you force it

You need something to write about
I know the struggle
But the words are on the tip
Just hum a melody
And let the pen be your lip.

You wonder why she’s leaving
She said the *** was good
She looks unhappy
You didn’t listen before

I’m certain she’s sick
Of this
But not you

Done being coy
If she were a boy
She’d ******* over
It’s all the same
Nothings changed

History lives in vain
You weren’t chivalrous
****** healing, you must be delerous
She ain’t self righteous

If she ain’t *******
She should leave
This is a more emotional commitment  for her
you didn’t deliver her good
And you think you did well.

A trite topic
By another name
I think I called her Rose
Maybe it was Brittany
Anything to distract myself
From the problem
This ain’t a game
No ones to blame

This won’t be another song about you
No, this won’t be another song about you

Breaking up
To keep together
Reuniting and breaking again
Same old story
No new allegory
All fate is
Without glory

This won’t be another song about you
No, this won’t be another song about you

An elegant hangs
From a noose suspended
By the Flag
Donkeys cry.... not one makes a sound
They just turn and walk all way
In shame

The death of a country
The rise of politicians
The cleansing
Needs a voice

Newspapers, News anchors
They say “ Democracy Dies in Darkness”
That the constitution is “ sacred”
The impressionable public needs a leader
But no one truly steps up
It’s a game of cockteasing and menstral cycling
Every four years
When Squelers come out of

To you I say “ I love you”
That’s what I want to claim
Self made promises soon fade
Behind the dark of night
Behind the mist of rain
Just another midnight promise that the sun won't keep
  
Forget the world
Blue eyes say
When a broken heart won’t go away
I needed you though your happiness  
Is all that ever mattered to me
Dissonant  images come alive
From behind the stormy clouds
And the foggy rain
I want the same
But you clearly don’t
Can’t I be so selfish
When crimes of the heart die hard

What is your wish?
To serve retribution in a dish
What is you goal
Are you vying to dig this country
Into a proverbial hole

Is it partisan politics
That divides us?
Is it not the people who
Congregate
To decide
Whatever happened to soul
We cannot blame
Nor scapegoat a single man
Nor a single party
Just because we don’t agree with them

But rationality looses
And both sides grow a third hand
****** are the people
Who can’t talk
Who can’t speak
Who can’t hear the truth

We’ve ****** ourselves
And know we the people
Have to gain a collective consciousness
And gather

But that won’t ever happen
So instead
We try to make sense of it
We scapegoat
And lie to ourselves
By giving politicians the power

But it seems
We can’t forgive
Or in the very least accept
That we’ve trusted for too long
And that we’ve abandoned
Core values
For what we consider newer values
That, without reason or rhyme
Are the status quo

How do we know the answer...
When the question of origin is unknown

We won’t be sullen
We won’t be lame
We’ll be together
Waltzing with a bottle

I don’t hate the world
I just hate its state

I don’t hate the world
I like watching it turn

You can learn so much from observing
The more you drink the more wise you’ll be
Just remember: keep your mouth shut.

If you say it  has to end
I’m  not sorry, my friend
I’ve always been a party of one
And I don’t burn
When I’m facing sun
If you asked do you care
I would say if I course I do
Somes bridge must be burnt
or we’d never ******* grow

Why am I always so headstrong
Why am I so **** lonesome
I don’t mind loneliness
I just mind my mind
Thinking  it’s right all the time
Even when it’s not in my best interest

I’m a stubborn *******
With a tendency to be blunt
Call me an ******* I’d you want
I’ll tell you the truth always
Friend, lover, significant other
No one will be spared
Honesty is nice
But people seem to want to beat around the bush
Thursday to save face

But that ain’t a friend

In this room
With my friends
And 50 others I’m alone
Zoned out, tranquil
I’ve managed to
Focus and tune out the speakers

“ he’s weird”
Until you talk to me
Know you realize
I can hear you
With clarity
Your voice is sweat like chocolate
Smooth like coffee
Subtle as a whisper
And more tuneful than these **** songs

I miss the stupidity
You remember the days
Of "That's cool"
And " I am the great cornholio"
We miss Beavis and Butthead

My vanity decried
feelings are massively tried
tested- a hearts apartheid

feelings inside put out
to the side as i hide away
the contradictions

Rain falls on my head
a hearts apartheid isn't dead
blue eyes hide fire inside

No puedo querer
Más que tú
Mi esperanza de opio
Y una niña contenta
Mi traición sería dejar que quiera que vaya
Corazones hacer y ver
Corazones hacer y ver
Usted tiene la clave para mí
Completamente
Hasta mi último día
Lamento me come como estoy gritando para ser lanzado
Mi mente llena de tristeza , escribe un lamento de epifanía
¡Mierda!
¿He jodido ... Otra vez, yo prometo ganar su amor de nuevo con sinceridad infinita

Here I go
Down the same path
I didn't want to be ruined
But I know in darkness there's light

And then there's you
Tell me if my hell is true

What kind of sadomasochistic game
Are you playing with my heart
Self-hatred takes its toll
From you because of me
Ash to Ash dust to dust
I'm a vagabond left to grovel
And rust
Hate is my only companion
As my heart stands alone
In a cryogenic fridge
Frozen in time
-30 below zero
And I know the way out
But the light is darkened and needs a new bulb

Self indulged
Was this met to be
The dynamics
And texture that separated you and me

What kind of sadomasochistic game
Are you playing with my heart
Self hatred takes its toll
I wallow in hollow depths
And succumb, I fall apart

Devotion  
Love
Twisted
Outcome
Lasting
Regret
Forever
Instilled

Play your game
Play your game
Play your game
Players game

The typical day
And typical night
Wake up late
And stay out late
Baby let me roll of your fingers
Like a joint
Let me be your genie
And fulfill your fantasies
Let me smear your mascara
Relax...
we’ll greet the morning as one
The sun smiles as we go our own way
Only to be led back again
Into the others arms

As I walk through the mall
At the foot of l.A
I took to the side
Trying to keep my homies at bay
Because
I need to start a trend at school
So the even the jocks will be looking like tools
You better watch your reputation
I really dislike trippin
But a gotta though
Cause target and hot topic are out-dated
Like Weird Al’s flow
But I don't disrespect
Cause you're not a threat
Soon you and your clique will be the back  of the pack
We've been spending most our lives
Living in a hipster's paradise
We all buy hot topic products at half price
Living in a hipster's paradise
We all wear designer shoes
Living in a hipster's paradise
We're all sleep twelve then press snooze
Here in a hipster's paradise

We all look alike
So no one can tell
We're a nation of fools with nothing to sell
Our clothes be all Ralph Lauren or Adidas
We all eat the fat snacks symbolized by cheetahs
We all eat fast food
Then answer to China
Nothings  ever different can't you see
We've created hipster's paradise
Ruining you and me

Dear Lord
**** the trends
I'm begging you please
Or we'll all be bound to follow
On our knees

Mimes mimic monotony
With cerebral and cynical gestures
Passionately “performing” the perilously
Tiring

I’m not sure if this’ll work
But I know that
I have to try
I’m not sure if this’ll work
But I’ll continue
To vie

Legacy
Isn’t me
I’m an amphorus
shape shifting celestial paragon
And I’m here
So lend me your ear

I bring you a show
Without cynicism
I’m bringing  you flavor
Of the year
Once you taste em
You’ll only want more

Legacy
Isn’t me
I’m an amphorus
shape shifting celestial paragon
And I’m here
So lend me your ear

Tell them a story
Use allegory
Wrapped up in culture
Tell them a story
With a moral
thatll  make them seek
The truth for themselves

Their truth
Ain’t my truth
My truth
Ain’t your truth
Your truth
Ain’t their truth

There’s only one universal truth
But many ways to find it
I haven’t found it yet
No one  has

But I do know this
Whatever it is
We may not wanna now
For I’d we did
Our world would singular
And boring
Life’s about chasing
Not catching

Rise up and fight
Comrades in arms
Unify to disarm
The powers that be
Through bloodshed
And protest we shall prevail
No longer shall we suffer
Under the spell of falsehoods
Or empty promises

We’ll fight
The kremlin
Till death due us part
Russia shall be free

Rejoice
In your existence
The birth of the pure
Saccharine *******
You won’t devour
Rise up ‘guest
The arm of the state
The ones that never fed
Or gave a ****

Through the death of
Forbearers we’ve grown stronger
Unified in the cause
Of autonomy
The hammer and sickle
Of past trepidation
Have only served to make
Us stronget

Why worry
What’s the point
sit back
Life will go by regardless

Why ask
There’s no answer
Sometimes
Wonder is the key
Why push
When no ones pulling
You the other way

Sometimes I feel like we’re drowning
In repetition
Hoping to reap a different outcome
We’ve never learned

A PSA:
Everyone’s full of ****
We just call it as we see
Agenda
Conversational propaganda
You can’t convince me otherwise
You aren’t  they
They aren’t me
And you aren’t I

The eyes that see all
Blend the moiety
Of the woke
And these are our ‘leaders’
The ones you call
Sagacious

Thought leaders
Research and retread
Old thought
Convert it to binary
Tweeting in shorthand
To a generation ******
For their lack of thinking
They’ve convinced the youth that

1+1= 2
Only when it’s their truth
1+1=2
No, 1+1=you

We act like
We know
But we’ve yet to awake
Everything there is
Is nothing

Let’s start over
Pretend
we’re ******
to situation
You keep the knowledge
From past endevours
But will yourself
To new perspectives

Being right
Is acting right
In acting right
You do right
Objectively

We act like
We know
But we’ve yet to awake
Everything there is
Is nothing

Riding on
A chariot to nowhere
Going forward, you’ll see
nothing
But the vision of memory

Riding on
A chariot to nowhere
Feelings uknown
Are you willing explore

Find the answer
This isn’t about truth
This is personnel
This is deliberate
This is everything
This is you
The mirror distorts
The clearest image

I left you
And I feel no regret
It’s not worth
Seeing you upset

I saved your life
But you must save yourself
Cause girl, when all is said and done
I’ll be back one day

Till than you take care

Contributions
Dissalusions

We are merely writers
Of lives passed lived
when writing writs  ‘rights’  wrong writings
rightful rites
are signed over with the blood of fallacy
By intellectuals and cynics alike
Who’ve given up
Rights within us wrongfully appear in dissonance
Reflecting the stories from the past
taken for education but lessons ignored
The system has failed you
Histories created

And we remain
None the wiser

Blue sphere spins
Fully with or without us
Time preserves mistakes
For descendants to forgive
When knowledge is lost
Or when the remedy of hindsight
Becomes to great to stomach

Ghost town
Population 100,000
Yet all I see
Is traffic and  tumbleweed
Where the hell is everyone?

It’s 9 P.M.
The kids are asleep
Hire a sitter
Let’s get lit

In the city
The night shift never ends
In the city
You kiss *** all day
Come to me
Non- cynically
Let’s indulge in serendipity
The practice of ******* off
And enjoying ourselves


It’s moments like these
That we live for
The cities dead
But we’re alive
Join me
Join us
Join we
Let’s party!!

death
by socialization
call it government inoculation
degradation
Indoctrination
propaganda machines
curteousy of those in power
but existed long before
and was created, perpetuated, and spread
by the people
who create images, write rights
to ‘right’ the writs written
and adopted by politicians whose personality
was created and nurtured by you and I
and by them and us
we created politicians
bolstored their success
now we are reaping the
dissatisfaction of what we created
we ****** up
This is no longer an issue of partisan politics
we must all change our ways

Fiona

I haven’t seen you in years
I could wait a bit longer
But  I feel that
Something in my life is missing
Maybe it’s you
Maybe it’s me missing myself
I’m fixated on why
I’m still thinking about this

Gotta let it go


Reminiscing
on childhood days
Schoolyard plays
The jealousy
I had
So long ago has dissipated
Still, my feelings haven’t gone
Despite my best efforts


I don’t mind being alone
It’s made me stronger
Anyway, How are you doing
Today after all this time
I’m still the same as I was 15 years ago

I never changed
rI guess I grew up
Marginally
I’m slightly smarter
And a tad more witty
Yet I’m still
as insecure as before


Oh, Fiona

All the energy I’ve wasted
Trying to forget
I should just reach out
This isn’t obsession yet
But I fear that’ll develop


Eventually


I don’t mind being alone
It’s made me stronger
Anyway, How are you doing
Today after all this time
I’m still the same as I was 15 years ago

I’m with him
Despite his lack of morale
I’m with her
Despite corruption and false pretense
I’m with you
Despite our difference
We can work together
To be more open
And less divisive

Can’t fight the fact
That opinions aren’t universal
That humankind
Talks out of its ***
That everyone’s their own
Prison *****
I can’t be a loner
Apparently we all need
to socialize
What if we
Could work together
Resemble harmony
Without striving for perfection
With reason and rhyme
What a brighter paradigm
That would be

But it’s impossible
Because we still don’t
Understand
The difference between

Being right doing right
Everyone’s so obsessed
With being on top
When unbeknownst to them
They’re ******* themselves


I don’t have
All the answers
I’m no genius
I’m human
And ask

When did
Human  nature
Become an algorithm
That we can’t crack

We make rubble out of statues
And pain out of “ love”
I wish I wasn’t a cynic
Our nations
Starting to die so young

It’s not the left or the right
controlling us tonight
It’s us (without a doubt)
Why can’t we see

That we are the people
And we’re stronger as one
But we elect  the vote that sends us
Straight to hell

What if it were different
And we could compromise
I know that
That’ll  never happen
Emotions are to codified
And solidified by either side
Without justification

We just ebb and flow (x16)

Believing politicians
Believing in just cause
Leaves us stagnant
Brain thirsting
Knowledge is on metapuse

Do we know no better
Have we not learned
To elect to have a conteneous diagloue

Life is beautiful
Life is hard
Life’s meant to be a struggle
At times
Sometimes we
Need a break
  nothings  wrong
With escapism
Indulge yourself
And others too
But Don’t close your eyes
to the possibility
Of something new


It’s never
An excuse
It’s a means to relax
We don’t need any drugs


(To Zone out)

At peace with reality
Born free
Not committed to anyone
But ourselves
You’ll find me contented
Laying in bed
Vacationing in my
Imagination
You’ll find in deep thought
Vacationing in my
Imagination

The worlds not ****
People aren’t ****
We’re collectively cynical
To our detriment

Over the wall
Across the mote
Make way for the siege

Their architects
And engineers
Defected to me
Without a fight

A shadow cast over the sun
And a heavenly light showered me
“ you will be great” it said
Free people from division

You are Genghis
You are man
You will unite all peoples
And shadow the sun

Kosovo

Let it fall and rise
Like Kosovo
With respect and reverence
Like Rome and the Byzantines
Or Constantinople

Give them liberty
Impunity
Immunity from the tyranny
Of former countries
Why must history
Stubbornly refuse death

1976
Unrest
In the homeland

2019
Unrest
In the Homeland

I’m happy nothings changed
When you treat your people
Like rats
Treating them like swine
I wish you had more power

I realize parliament
Is ******
A liberal agenda
Dressed up as conservative ethics
Brexit
The message they sent

We are strong
We are right
We won’t live in fright
I speak out
Call me a ****
Call me a racist
I’m a  placist
Cause we’ve all got one in this world

Sew my mouth
Bound and gagged
I’m laughing
Smoking a *** through my nostrils

You can’t ban freedom of speech
And call us free
Dispose of of the other wing
Labeled as FASCISTS
Wrongfully

Look at what you’re doing
burn the Queen
While you’re at it

Burn yourselves
Advance the process
I’ll call it progress

**** Parliament

Donkeys cry
Elephants cry
This game of losers
Never ends
The dream
We call American
Became superficial
Growth comes at a cost
We must work
And earn accordingly
Can’t afford a token
Or pass
To immigrants or natives
Who believe it as their birthright
To call what elders
Worked so hard to build as our own
But not do anything to preserve it

Empty pulpits
It’s 5:30 on Saturday
People are praying at the pub
Giving sermons and political manifestos

Dingy hotel rooms
Mold pieces of a character
The scent of lavender and alcohol
The party never ends

I’m watching through
The watch towers scope
I’m not a parent
But it’s apparent
Tonight, I’m a helicopter

I loved you
But love is a dissipating wave
Crashing on the
Tide of dreams
Behind blue eyes
I had goals
And aspirations
And it’s no ones fault
We lost connection
Along the way

Hell has a place in your heart
That you run to
For security
But my assurance
That it’ll be alright
Wasn’t enough insurance for you

Don’t you feel gratified
In the safety of your thoughts
Utopia exists
As a mode of escapism
What was is now what is
And what will always be us

Divided we stand
Independently falling
In unison
A nation destroyed
By its own people

Give them drugs
To ease the pain
Give them love
To numb the pain
Revolution
To fulfill the fallacy of nirvana
And a coupon
For better ideas

Pick a card any card
Except for the queen
She stole my heart
And now I’m a zombie

I’m looking for Alice
In the woods
But all I see
Is a red
Where have all the men gone
And why is there
A been stocks worth of wedding rings
In front of me?

Goliath still exists they
Made him out of wood
Must be painfully awkward
When he wakes up in the morning

Little boy Bleu
****** a hag in a shoe
He yolked as he died
Humpty Dumpty is alive
but can’t pick himself up
He’s got no game

He lives with Aiken Drum
And a street dog
Whose owner died
When she saw him smoking a pipe
Their landlords a crooked man
Who keeps raising rent
They gut him
And put him in a stew with the theee little pigs
Humpty falls in
“ Aw ****” says Aiken
“Well at least this’ll be a valences breakfast

Lexicons created from
Meandering consciousness
Creating streams of thought

The images of something good
The notion of creation
And the strains of reason we create

We call that human nature

Dichotomy of soul and mind
A path intertwined
Expressed through color

No  art is replete
No love complete
No loyalty depleted

The spectrum we see is never full
But nobody’s a fool
Life’s about the colors you don’t see

Beauty on sight


She slipped me
Her room key
And an empty tab
“ Room 313
And I’ll be off in seven”

She looked like Rapunzel
Spoke in a Slavic dialect
Better yet
Maybe I’ll leave the rest to your imagination

Beauty and the *****
Fell in love with the moment
Please don’t be mad
I don’t recall your name
Did I ever tell you mine

We awaited the sunrise
After the fact
Watching the stars
Admiring the scenery
Making love on the bow
To the backdrop of the Danube

Let’s talk about faults
For a moment or two
Cause we’ve all got a few
Yes it’s true

It’s about hiding
Putting up a front
As if we’re infallible
But we’re

Flammable
Ticking time bombs
Don’t strike a nerve
Sensitive
We ain’t much for
Literacy
Cause we’re Hard to read

He sits at the bar
Lamenting his fall
From grace
Scars on his mind
Support his honesty

He tells of Black Daffodil
And nights on the sunset strip
recounting in detail
The glory days

“Everyone knew my name”
He said
“ when I meant my press agent
my career went to ****”

“Curses
To all who who’ve ****** me
I may be free
But I’m living my life as
Someone’s prison *****”

Smooth, sweet
Saccharine
I’m addicted to the high
Of being young
And you’ve forgotten
The blessed nature
Of naivety

Any moments right
when you’re living in
sin— it’s been affirmed:
we’re only human

Milkshakes and libidos
A requiem for forgotten
handkerchiefs and soggy tears
Washed away by
Milkshakes and libidos

Cocktails
Created by insurance of
Mutually funded assurance
Without second thought
Regret not the momentary decisions
We make
Whatever happens

We knew the risk


Milkshakes and libidos
A requiem for forgotten
handkerchiefs and soggy tears
Washed away by
Milkshakes and libidos

******* to *****
******* pointless
What?  We’re only human

What a weak excuse
For infidelity
Self serving *******
Should be put on trial

Think for yourself
Be yourself
Act naturally
Think for yourself
Be yourself
Act naturally

I guess you like
The thrill
I guess you have no chill
Why put yourself through
The ringer
Just to get too attached
For a brief moment

Think for yourself
Be yourself
Act naturally
Think for yourself
Be yourself
Act naturally

We live life
As if we had
A permanent lease
Despite having knowledge
That it’ll end
Memories
Are good and bad
It’s what you do
That matters in the end

I smoke cigarettes
I drink beer
You don’t think I hear you?
You’re wrong
Call me stupid
*******
Insolent
Whatever you will
I’m living for the moment
Cause I know
Someday might be too late
To live my life

I’m cool
But not popular
It doesn’t bother me
Cause I’m me
Everyone’s an attention *****
I’m not immune
I’m in fact human

I love, I hate
I get caught in my head
I make mistakes
Just like you
I’m living in the moment
Cause I know
Someday might be too late
To live my life
