the victims come forth, the victims stand down; the innocence shamed and shunned, and the rapists come out from the shadows with some who still linger behind in their menacing twilight.
the actions are irreversible; so the complaints do nothing, and the consequences are a careless wave of a hand

The place of dreams and destruction; of the glamour and grotesque
Hollywoodland is a deep, dark secret in disguise

I walk in a Government-official building, I know that there are Free Masons scheming below the ground floors, and pulling the strings from above, watching us below

Monsters with masks at rich celebrity house parties behaving the way a mentally balanced society would deem atrocious. Let's wait and see who else is going to come out from the shadows.

I saw the difference right there
One look and I'm talking to myself
So I ran home away from you

Sedated under condition
Once so loving and free
But then I spoiled it
So I ran home away from you too

Found a match
Caused a spark
Never heard from again
So I ran home away from that as well

I don't know you but I'm scared you'll bite my neck
So I'm just gonna stay right here at home
While the rest of you go to sleep in your pall

Discover the room
Left for two
One thing left to do:
Use my hands
I'll break your body
Take all your big plans
Smother it with a blanket
Hit your head, stuff you in the bed
Big plans: you're pillow case stuffing, *****.
You frustrate me, you're hard to carry
All your hair will fall out before you can swim in the deep blue sea

Your body is dead to me, your body is a wonderland
Your body is -- can't feel your hands, Your body is dead to me
Duh-duh-duh. Duh-duh-duh ... Duh-duh-duh. Duh-duh-duh-duh.

Yet ignorance can be bliss
The unknowing of things
Is a gift we never wish

A Crop of Lies irrigate farmland
Deception grows and dies
Its corpse sustains
A cycle refrains

Cold, this night is
Cracks open the ground
Revealing a sight
Seeping through with light

Regions were found
To be taken and conquered
Sailors sailed to eat sailors
And they as well ate bread

Sounds of paranormal had
Guided every boat, then plane
Then spaceship, to the inside
Of a toy box they made

“These Crops dictate Truth”
Says Man (or monster)
Every night is cold; cracked
These Crops are impure

Livestock tell stories of their leader
It’s more of saying really
Because they’re ******* livestock
The Truth cannot tell nor talk

Reason slips off their skin
Like water off oil
Harder and harder it is
For Man to let joy soak in






Journeys of discovery
Travel through the television
Crisps, colas, pies, and cakes
Is what ******* does it

Beef pulp, French toast, tomato paste
Is what ******* does it
All we consume is ****
Crying fat morons decompose

“I really like the rain”
Says ****** with pudding stain
And her body melts and pours
As the rain does inexcusably

Great big dogs soak up in the rain
Unlike Man with his walking cane
They are all dying as they retreat
Underneath a roof of sin to replace

Emotional politicians claim they’re drug-free
As they smoke cigs and drink alcohol
Infant babies were torn apart in shopping malls
Did the World set them free?

Man (or monster) propose
To have a war on anything
Must any more children die?
Or can they get high; watch television?
What the **** is wrong with an aspect
Of harmless self-discovery
Can Man wager livestock’s epiphany?
Is it o.k. to live in a subdivision?

Or on a farm, or in the television?
Do these Crops have to dictate
Which victim we choose to mate?
To dictate our truth?

Can the fake astronaut admit?
He got ******* high; watched sitcoms
Ate potato chips, ate cereal out of the box
Never told a soul it was a hoax

Crops soak in the sweet rain
As the political Man weeps
These Crops become true
Dying Men no longer retreat

A Crop of Lies
Become so true
This wisdom is beauty
What we see now
Is as clear as day
JP Mantler Jan 2016
I'm sorry
I won't do that again
I just can't help myself

Overwhelmed with feeling
Warm water filling me up
I release, I try so hard
I won't do that again

Your Nonno is staring at me
You've swam past me and
you've touched me

I release, I try so hard
I will wait until I shower
Where no one can see me
Except for your Nonno
Who will **** me in my sleep

the meaning of life is pecan pie;* the meaning of life is crunchy, candy-sweet and savory happiness. Life is easy as pie. Life is a piece of cake. When life gives you clouds, it gives you polluted rain and psychedelic frogs which give you ecstasy. Life means that this computer is too ******* slow, and I need to ***** some garbage about what life means to me.

Journal 12
My briefs were frozen because I put them in the freezer. I thought that freezing my unmentionables would make me a stronger person. I was alarmed by how ******* small my genitalia shrunk. Wow. My briefs were so ******* cold. Cause they were frozen. Holy ****. I walked outside in these briefs and wondered if I had remembered my lunch box. Holy ****. There was an egg salad sandwich in that lunch box.
*I ran frantically across the road back to my house, but a car ran me over. My skull had been concussed and decapitated on the windshield of that ******’s car. Man. I wish I had worn those bunny slippers, because those were my lucky bunny slippers.

Some days he'll dress in new or old
But with a smile always so sharp
His walking charm will take a toll
When the woman turns to dark

His snaking charm strolls to the pub
Where the slags and twonks *** around
Nothing but warm hands and pint to grub
Where the woman he sees is found

She spits bleeding words from her filthy mouth
As he scorns them back with his hand
The red only cries when she screams in doubt
The snake gives her his looking glan

Someone thought to call for help
But no help had ever arrived
The barman listened to the poor woman's yelp
People pretend she never cried

The smiling man of ruthless charm
Walks down the stairs of death
Vehemence covered with blood and sin
Whereas mannequin slags spread grim

In forms of angelic old and new
His inhibited shape had grew
More evil it grew as his smile knew
His deliverance was joyful harm

He preached to barman to slags to twonks
His ways of nature so brash and ******
From snake to wolf to man dressed well
Even a preacher of God his allure so grand

The cunting ***** bemoaned downwards
Dampened with red paint shrieked foreign words
With her limbs cut open, "Deliverance is God"
Finding it was the charming man who smiled as a sod
JP Mantler Mar 2015
It's too much of a threat
It's a constant fret
It ***** my head
It always comes back
(And I laugh)

It drives me to scolding showers
And toilet seat scours
All for me to holler
The name of the new prowler

Recognizable from the rest
You're taking it all away
Killing me day by day
I'll burn any stronghold that stands

I'll make sure all words are clear
To make those red-matter strands
Pull and tear of all your flesh
And of all your gloom
JP Mantler Apr 2018
i see an object not really part of the picture. it recurs, I see it only with my eyes closed. everything is going by in front of my eyes. losing all touch, i search for Laniakea, my place to hide where noise crashes into objects, where people are objects.

but me.

no one can tell me what do -- the singularity experience defying my employers' silly beliefs, because we are all one as God; still only human and foolish and sinful

us.

two particles stimulating friction which becomes energy, a free spirit born into a living Hell

Lazy artist, shut the **** up
And get back to work
Stop hustling crazy characters in wheelchairs
And stop shattering all that stigma
It's not good for you, and it ain't good for me
Man up and shut up, if you knew any better

Stop hustling sugar cane nose food
And stop shattering your precious dreams
Wake up now, my lazy ******* artist

Go back to the video store and stalk your wanted flicks
Eat up all your karma so you can have a few bits
to spit back out at your enemies
Brush it off and continue on with your life
But remember to come down soon

You took some risks today
Your friends don't want you
But that's okay cause you got a place to be
On all fours, you can crash gently on your own
JP Mantler Nov 2014
The temporary shoulder to cry on
The loving attention and support
A temporary happiness
Willing to extort
He's crazy about you
And it's only been a week
"I'd do anything for this girl"
So redundant, so ******* bleak
"I'm in love with her!" he shouts
And it's only been a week or so
He'll carry on the big burden
But does the love really show?
Drunken drama queen
My life's bags are still on scene
They're hiding away in your closet
They're staying there like the leaky faucet
Don't burn the bridge, my love
Don't let it burn
Come back at some point in time
Don't let it burn
Is this our temporary relief ?
JP Mantler Sep 2015
Everyone looks at me as the sickest one down the street
No friends on the telephone box
So I make sure they see me walk away
I sometimes feel lack-sense

Visit the night l'ecole and about a dozen murderers
This went on in and about a cracked fairytale.

Whenever I want to leave
the same old taped box
Comes and pushes me in l'ecole

I went somewhere to meet up
with my worries
But the worries suppressed me

Dim light in the ****** pantry
with kitchen ****
They won't even come and
light me a wire to burn
Light my ******* face off
with a towel-iron
Brother suicide leave me crying
in the bone-ditch
My stroller broke and I'm
crawling off the falls

I was with her just today
And now they all act like she's missing
JP Mantler Aug 2016
According to my dreams, you have a stiff box,
it's a nightmare with how you hurt me
You've become something ugly to me
A washed up reminder, a *****
So behold the prophet,
I'm no longer a slave to your fondling mind

Post-excitement day, I'm overjoyed because
I'm glad to see you stuck in your head
There was no real day when we died, only the realization after
The cost of you was ineffective
You're a leech stuck on a giant sugar cube
I'll leave and let you play with that,
and waste yourself well
JP Mantler Jun 2014
Lend me your ears to the rebuke of the wise
For you are a fool to listen to the song of fools
These songs are sung by the cruel
Oh, Lord let us endureth

Oh, Lord let them endureth
When they burn for having nonsense written on their backside
Those clowns collect garbage; selling their souls for pride
******* Jesus Christ save them from their aspires
Aspirations quite evil like fire
Take them higher
Quite higher

~Take them higher

Oh, Lord like fire
They can burn if they choose
Burn in the lake of fire and ****
Nurse on the devil's **** and ***
Oh, Lord they like fire
Oh, Lord I love fire

Choose a madness in which you will never see day
Choose Lucifer's licentious tongue of spray
No more fire and no more day

Oh, Lord oh Lord
Oh, Lord have mercy
Oh, Lord of today
. . .

Oh, Lord of today

. . .

God Stalk His Prey
JP Mantler May 2016
Stray dog bites the fleas & barks at the buzzard voice with no decision but to wait for the next gesture. Jester can't see why he's lost the leash but the owner is found better now -- much more tamed for an eternal suffering; it's no longer a frothing mouth full of the doomsday within. Barks at the bees, and they shine their stingers; they are karmic bullets of love from a sensitive ghost with no reserve. reserve. He is not there. you put him under the sink , in the disinfectant bucket; you can't cure his rocket fuel habits, but you can pretend he isn't there.

The tick behind your ear isn't going to bring you happiness.

A beautiful winding road when courage races down,
they meet face to face, a steering wheel in the mouth
and pieces of metal tear the eyes.
They wave at each other. I'm the one that looks the other way.
I make sure this isn't smoke in my eyes.
\\\\\\\\\\\\
MY WIFE KICKS ME IN THE SHINS BECAUSE i'M TOO NICE & I'M TOO DISHONEST
\\\\\\\\\\\\
When I pass Hopkins Steel, the boisterous starlets covered by make-up gowns see beyond the factory smoke.
I just need to take another Xan to help myself forget about how much I want to puke.
\\\\\\\\\\\\
I come to a stop. This time I smell smoke which resembles the humble.
I peek through the window and I see them on fire.
Stillness. Until they all crumble to the ground.
They werenever worried about their features; their possessions or their impressions because they didn't have any.
\\\\\\\\\\\\
The contorted fan swung with his limbs rigid and stiff; directing a lost signal. Set like a stone for me to run from.
A hand come out from the smoke and twists my arm.
The look of his charred face forces my ***** a gooey black tar of resentment.
\\\\\\\\\\\\
I'm now waiting tables. I think of my wife sleeping with her boss.
I think of her nagging at me whenever she hears me breath.
If Karma doesn't exist, then maybe I should just thrw her under a BUS.
She fell! She wasn't pushed . . .

An arrogant customer persists insults.
He demand for coffee. His previous did not taste of his brand.
"Your face is one hot coal waiting to get ****** on."
I come back with the coffee; tainted with my own ***** matter.
"You might as well quit now you ******* low life."
I throw the coffee in his face, stannds up and screams.
His entire face is scolding, he smells like **** and is crying like a *******
BABY.
\\\\\\\\\\\\
I'm sitting on the bedside, contemplating.
There's blended merlot & Sonata with cherry ice cubes.
ynoT, I've filled my sock with aerosol.
Might as well join the Rugby Boys.
It's the kindest geture I've done to myself.

"You're not gonna get it"
Your little voice will tell you
You are a stubborn mule
Who'll play the fool
And guise his innocence
"You're not gonna get it"

Surrounded by dissuasion
"You're not gonna get it"
He is sick of your stupid ****
He doesn't believe in you
Your acrid, little voice

I'll play the fool
And guise my feelings
But I really can't hide
I'll just carry on
And come back
Drunk and sober
When you aren't
so bitter

~ You strange ****
You ****** ****
You‘re something else, you
You might not be well

The self-preaching
Was getting old
Even when it was new
They all knew

There is something
Wrong about your English
Something makes them wonder
If you‘re really all in there

When one said you were trash
You thought the cynics would
Make everything better
It never did last
~
Scary girl with big buns
On her shrunken head
Thinks you better quiet
And only listen instead
~
The dwarfs cursed you
To the ******* ground
You slime, you puke
They burn and bury
You to the very ground

Those kisses were curses
You stupid slime, you
The guardian never watched
Over you to stop the blackness
Which crept unto you

Now you‘re some tainted ****
And they all know you‘re untrue
And they drool acid on you
~
When the brain deters
From all that filth in your mind
You‘ll realize the bacteria
Will make you go blind
And as you sink in the water
You've once walked on
Your stupid ****** up fans
Will all be gone

It's dancing with the crystals
And I look at you but I don't see you
And then I look the other way
Ahh, look at it

Like look at how--
This is beautiful

You look above
You see yourself that way
I am a pawn and you are Walt Disney
You see yourself above

You are that way
The kind of idealist
Who marches with ego
Who stutters with pride

I stand above you
But you hit me
I can't stand it
But my tongue is held

I'll strangle you
In the sink
In a neck choke
I'll bash your pudgy brain
Smash your ******* face
Smash your ******* mouth
With my fiery embrace
Sounds good ****-face?

I'll make you a better person <3

I had this beautiful dream of myself looking through my window to see that there was a downpour

And there was a row of single file juveniles walking with their rain gear

I thought this storm would wash them away but I'm trying to be one of those children

Their neon pink and yellow therapy gave me a shock
JP Mantler Jul 2017
You're all fools, you know I'm right
You just don't wanna see it
You don't wanna deal with it

You tainted my beer, painted my name
A new colour of thinking

Outrageous codswallop
Infamous gossip
Destructive worship

I don't struggle to sit on the outside
Just to melt in the rain
I have a tolerance
I have a conscience
I have a condition

You're all fools, and you know that I'm right
If you don't believe me then just read my
Holy scroll that rests atop
The mountain of Timbuktu

You'll spit a taste so vile
Villainous beliefs, total nonsense

But I'm a copper skinned fool
Who thinks for himself
Deal with it

You go on keep reading the ****
From the Masses
Hope it's a hit
You mindless tail
Swinging off a
Gutless *****

Maybe I'm empathizing a nervousness you don't even have
Maybe I'm scared of who I really am
Maybe I'll just laugh
JP Mantler Nov 2015
I should have paid more attention to you. I'm just a stupid slob. And though you look good, I tell you they look good. You got new glasses. So I just now realized that I've told the bunch from the two, many times in the past: between "you look good" and "they look good." What good is it that I will make any difference now by saying: "You look good."  I ****** it all up. I was deviant with you and I was careless when it came to present love. And I was bashful from that. I'm waiting for your answer about how you've been. Waiting on that just makes it sour. I'm waiting on you waking up beside me the next morning, squirming around, stretching out your tiredness, smiling and eyes closed. And me not ever wanting to leave the bed.

Man plays his guitar as he sits in the grass
With Frisbees flying over his head
The man has a stash
Which gives us our moments
What makes things expensive
I don't understand
But what I know is that
living is the best I can

Peter Gabriel's got sun in his eyes
He's still searching but hasn't got a clue cause he's blind

What a sad picnic party and its melting form
Let's ditch this place so we don't have to mourn

Let's go away from the stupid, sad people

So      we     can      be        sad      on         our                      own
  Sad                on         our            own       on      our   own
Sad           on      and    off        and    on   and    off
     Sad    on  our           own              on         our   own       sad

My body once an ocean,
Water seeped through my pores,
Now a dry crustacean
Discontent shall be no more

My body a euphoric journey
In a wavely atomic state
In faithful hopes of good fate
No more cynicism, no more hate

No more No more,
I shall do without,
Without animus, without fear
And nor any further shedding of tear

My body a talkative spirit
Good spirit talk some more
Engage the well-winded conversation
But not end in confused frustration

My body animates love from
The surface of my Eyes
I do not wish for anymore Cries
Unneeded to despise

My body with yours
Perfection that pours
Connection that will ever last
Both in present and in past

You and me,
We equate you see,
Like two pods in a pea,
Or is it the other way around?

For beloved Eternity,
Our Universe smiles at each other,
In sane glee
Insane and happy  

Our devotion cystic
The warmth holistic
We protect from Sadistic
Do you see? We click

My body once an ocean
Water seeped through my pores,
Now a dry crustacean
Discontent shall be no more

The earth was grounded
Everything was grounded
And for that matter
It was a matter of colour
And perception
Which had helped me
Search for the connection

I cried in joy at all
And the sounds of all
Which had brought me closer
To the peak of which I had came

My head was a river
And the burning tears came
Within the joyous excitement
I was ecstasy as they were
Creatures of purpose

Time isn't wasted with you, my darling
But I'll drag you to be happy
That's not what you want
Tame you like a child, I know my darling
I'm just a selfish brick wall of unheard thoughts

Teach you to be happy, I can't my darling
For moments ago, I felt like I was falling
For moments ago, it felt like I was falling

But now it's very so that we've hit the ground
My sweet girl, what is it you've found

I can make most smile
But you're one of the few
Your mouth doesn't even break
I can't say it's you

Go back to Hawaii if
that is where it all was
Go back to Hawaii
And stay there, in Hawaii
I'll drink down my 'cets
As I think of Hawaii

You're dreaming a naive dream
You're dreaming, silly boy

You're dreaming; not a real thing
It's all your hope, silly boy
Wake up

It's nothing, but a naive dream
Dream, dream; silly dream
Wake up
Now

Silly boy; young and stupid
You're reaching for the stars
And you'll burn out like
the rest of them

Naive dream; it's not for you
It's not for them as well; you're no gem
You won't change for the same people
who have slaughtered you

Dream, dream

Dream away
And reminisce, silly boy
When you begin to let go, you back out into reality.
JP Mantler Feb 2016
She reaches out
You pull back
With open arms
You curl into a ball
She tries to embrace
You roll over her back
She stands still
Waiting to weep

Your the new puppy dog that wants to be loved
She's the old footstool that has your love

You watch it happen all in front of them
You see your older self but he knows you more
You struggle to realize, but you tell the footstool she did a good job

Alone, you're waiting in the screen of blue
Waiting for something to happen
You yearn for something new

In the screen of blue
Something might happen

You may be there at the right moment
From blue, it is turned to red
Your feelings may dread

You may not want to be read
But that's all okay

Because in the screen of blue
Something might happen

Little man where are we taking you
Hold onto her hand tight
Terminal three is closed
Where must you go

Groggy-eyed bug face,
I think you should wake up now
We're taking you to Chicago
Don't let go of her pretty hands
There's much to see without anyone else

*Thick humid air eats me up
I can smell the American soils
I can see the greens of promised life

The Miss Daisy sank
She was two hundred feet tall
With no worries at all
There are buskers all around and about

The swamp bar is clean
For my good friend Jimmy
He's here to play
He's come a long way

He is music to my ears
With my pack of 'Boros and my bourbon glass
He straightens the queers

The music floods me with joy
Like a dark cloud of sunshine

I drink to him
I'm the last to stay
I'm dying to play

*Dauphine cries to the sounds of sunken hope and dread
The sound is buried with dying laughter
The drummer is dead
The band plays on

We're on our cemetery walk
It's hot, sticky and quiet
The Schallenberg trash is full

"Ex umbris et imaginibus ad veritem"

Bus boy and bus girl
Dreaming the jazz theme
The American dream
There's grits on the table
Another sad fable of dreamers with big, crazy dreams

And I flick the cigarette **** on the *****'s SUV
I flee, I hide behind the Southern white veil
I ******* cower


Lady talks with her hands
I cannot ******* understand
The car horns beep again
And the drag queens chase men

It is all just wizard propaganda
It is all a ******* hoax
I want to stab my boss
I want to **** him

A dozen blue orbs visible from my view
A phenomenon of fear and fascination
As I was just riding along, the glowing moons had put me to stop
The night sky shot streaks of blue light down at the earth
It is too early for me not to live, I must live
It is undeserving and unfair to be struck by this phenomenon
The other planets hate us, so we must come to an end

O' lady, you'd best be through'in
O' lady, you'd best be through'in

O' lady, we'd best be through'in
O' lady, we'd best be through'in

O'lady you'd best be through now
O'lady we'd best be through now

We'd best be . . . .  . . . .
We'd best be . . . .  . . . .
We'd best be . . . .  . . . .
We'd best be . . . .  . . . .
We'd best be . . . .  . . . .

*O'lady we'd best through
And outta the moonlight
Oh yea, Me and You
We'd best be through

“Two days before Christmas I found a miscarried rabbit fetus. Or maybe it was a rat.  I punctured the corpse with a pitch fork and this creamy, thick mayonnaise-looking kind of substance excreted out of its stomach. When that happened I had experienced surprise and disgust. Because for a fraction of a second the mayonnaise had burst out; and immediately oozed slowly down the pink corpse. Perhaps a euphemism for mankind. Curiosity had consumed my fear once again. These moments are empowering. And I don’t even have to fear the judgement because I know the fine line between curiosity and ******* and fetishism within the realms of fascination. I say ‘fine’ because one moment of action can lead to the next. I am just one moment from thinking to do something ****** up and then actually doing it. I guess then I’d be ****** up. I just don’t want to ooze.”

I wish the sun was always set The orange glow on my burdened mind
I wish for the drug-induced warmth To embrace me as I run
I'd run down the orange shadowy road where I'd see rows and rows of my orangy white house I'd search for little but stumble across many
An alien crash site at my old school A sadness overwhelm, I'd beg
For return, the orange people sigh
Tell me to go, tell me then

It's the sun in their eyes that tell me to go, they tell me to go, so I leave

I leave

Passing tears
All behind me
Passing tears
No more surrounding
It's ******* queer
How they tell me
That passing tears
Will deny me

We're passing tears
But the dead
Don't
Know

We travel around
Waiting for the ground
Close your eyes
No more sound
Deafened from death
To hear life
One last breathe
And now we know

They're passing tears
But the dead
Don't
Know
A song in respect to the dead; a song that mocks the living.
