It is a grassy green wasteland
that rises from the highway
at a strange angle.
The verdant plains rush away
in a darker shaded wave,
that used to be a sea of dry brown
but now it flushed full of life.

the vulpine duopoly*
did skew terrific results
for their monopoly

they've been so bullish
in fashioning such great ends
*it is quite freakish

It’s not submission
but a positive disposition
towards those in a position
to be friendly
or a thorn to me.
Hopefully,
I can spread
positivity.

I went to the local store
but that’s a lie,
like all the lies before.
I saw her sitting
under soft lamp lights.
That’s another ******* lie.
I loved her deeper
than the ocean tides.
That is such a pathetic lie.
I appreciated her
while she was alive.
Man, I got so many lies.

He told her that
she was the one
but he was lying to
both of them.
Said he’d be there
until the end.
The lies get so deep
you can drown in them.

She said their signs matched
and they were soul mates.
That’s a lie that I really hate.
She shut out other options
better men that she could date.
Humans lie so ******* much.

You know the worst lies
are the ones
we tell ourselves
because we are to scared
to know ourselves.

Sometimes I build a nest
of nice lies
and sit in the bird ****
getting ready to die.

Yes,




                                 we
                    are                       so young                  
     compared                            to the
            Earth.                           And Earth  
           is still                               a      
                               child.

You scream in the darkness,
looking for light
to let people see
that you exist.

Ripples in a pond,
echoes in the heavens,
whispers in the shadows,
we look and you are…

gone.

I am the god of love,
not the ****** conceit.
but the one you defeat
when you bomb to beat
the enemies you create.

I am the god of love,
diametrically opposed
to the god of war
who composed
decrees of hate
to destroy me.

I am the god of love,
the god who heals,
who wants to touch
to make you feel
everything.

I am the god of love,
a creature of ****** passions,
a being of peace and compassion,
but my ambrosia is wearing off,
and my godhood costs.
Soon, I will be unable to afford
or ever earn back
the godhood that humanity lacks.

When my divinity fades to black
that will be the end of that.
