Freedom* is something we don’t have anymore
Because within our own bodies,
We have become *slaves

a dark cold sea
spanned the horizon
eyes could see
mountains in the distance
white peaks by the blue
upon a blanket so green
sailing through a nightmare
tearing through the seams
into the dreams
and beyond
far from this place
to another age
in search of morrow
more than eyes can crave
the slave in the cage
can only peer
through a window

more than you can ever count

humans for sale

humans for sale*
you can lick their body
you can trade their kidney
you ignore them, and pretend you can't see.

Ignorance is the key to their death
Poverty is their destiny
Hunger is their enemy
Darkness is their only escape.

And you want to take them
getting all the benefits
selling their soul
exploiting their body.

How do you see these black children?
How do you see these poor people?
Robots? Slaves? For sale?
For ***? For money? For power?

Well, I see them as human
they cry, they love, they laugh.
I see you as the Demon,
you know nothing but evil.

for the victims of human trafficking, God is with your and for all the offenders, may God judge you.

**Our kind Owners**

The brave woman feels like water vapor
In a Room of ignorant disaster
And colorful brick walls crumble down like cheap paper
At the Hand of their Righteous Master

Where Empty Canvases and Abstract Words
Form to make art
The wise ones with skill in foolish herds
Will surely decide to depart

And how the ozone feels to The Man
Who burps and throws aside
The Man whose every which plan
From birth you shall abide!

"Live"and not be lived

Life is for living, they say.
But,
Pivoted around ego recognition endless ways.
We,
Churn out to be everyone but oneself

In denial untruth
We find a playmate
"Immersed in pretense"
Our loved game,we play.
"Relish" we say in unison,
"A rule"of the game.
Fooled into believing
There is no such thing as "Doomsday"

We must live and not be lived.
We,at every moment are surrounded by the lower forces of nature- ego,falsehood without being aware.
We let it govern us and hence are nothing but slaves.

A wake in coma,
Dystopian dreams,
. . . Gilded America.

Slaves to the Dime

want to live in a world where we aren’t slaves to the dime.
I want to live my life while I’m still alive
But I’m stuck with a 9 to 5
Bullies on the side waiting to taking my lunch money away
Oh **** you got some expenses to buy
******* it I need to refill my prescription
I am trapped in a position
Dig through the garbage again
I need some real food to fill me in
So cold tonight
Look at the pretty hottie
But **** yo you ******* expensive
How come things are like that
I sleep in a bed when my fellow humans can’t get a roof over their heads
Oh right they don’t have that type of green
So why should we care bout their well being
They aren’t slaves to the dime
Why should things be like this it is ******* sickening how our world has become. Till when are we gonna keep silent
Big brother why are you taking his hugs away
Mother can love us all
It not fair
Some of us keep ranting about how cold it is. People be thankful you have something to cover yourself up. Or you know what? There are people out there whom question why are we even a part of this world. No food, clean water, clothes, heater, no medical care, safety, and simply dream of a roof over their heads.
How did we degrade this far?
How come there are people like that?
It’s ******* shameful how we allowed things to become.
We kept quiet for so long voice is simply gone.
We cared about the dime, and lost focus about what makes us feel alive.
We all should be living life in a world filled with love and care
Our earth had enough scars to bare
I am just sick and tired
Bout yea know
Just being a slave to the dime.

Santa: Elf Slaves

Santa got us workin' in the cold,
not a single fireplace in that **** factory.

He don't even feed us:
we eats polar bear leftovers,
penguin flesh and such.

Ask for a break and get stomped
by reindeers and such.
not a day of vacation, not a one.

The houses be made o' candy
but we ain't got no dental either,
so eatin' that would **** us.

This fat white ape is a bad bad man,
lord ain't that the truth,
ol' Saint Nick is a total ****.

Silence Please..

My lips are sealed, I smell
Each breath
In
&
Out
Be calm
For each inhale must
Be a calm exhale,
They came in darkness
Not seen until to late
There are no stitches
Calm breath
Out
&
In
I look at myself in
"Silence"
Inside I scream, many
Self mutilated to taste
Air
Tongue,
Teeth,
Not as before, dentures now fused
Like bone, they collide with force
Rock,
Metal,
Sharpened
Objects with a frenzy they smashed,
They bleed, coughing through there nose
Mucus expelled, then blood,
A whimper heard before
Choking on last breath,
"We now stay silent"
"Once top of all things"
"But now we are the ones bent on our knees"
We serve them in silence
"We are masters no more"
"Just cockroaches"
That they crush under their foot,
Be calm,
In
&
Out
We do not scream
We shed but tears and then no more.
