There is still hope
to escape from
    the nightmare
             and
anxiety
that haunts the wild nights,
I had been spending all night by writing those feelings
on the cold
       and damp walls,
and I think that we are one of those who need
warmth in love and life.

And here I think
that the poems let me speak
for those who have no voice.

Talk to me in a nicer tone he said
I’ve heard you speak to strangers
The love you show, the kindness
Is all I ask for yourself

Popping joints
Pop
Pop
Pop
Ill-fitting limbs
Aching bones
Tearful eyes
Driven to indifference
by its own design
A bleeding heart
Fractured, but not yet consumed
A clumsy mouth
Incomprehensible words
It thinks to say something
Its mouth refuses to open
Its throat stays closed
Looks like today
is a
no voice
day.
This year, I began to have days where I couldn't say a word. No matter how hard I tried.

I think you're gone
but there is inside me
that voice
disapproving, judging
I had celebrated my freedom
with a Budweiser
and some tears
not realising like
Steven King's
Lawnmower Man
you had been released
into my every nerve ending
my very being
part of my matrix
in life you had the strength
of an ark angel
and as I stumble
over these words
I am afraid retribution
is at hand
I am still scared of secrets
to let too much show
you once asked if I still
write poetry after dissing it
well I'd hardly call it that
this is my fear factory
Wealth is not just money
Tis only a small slice
The prosperity pie
I won’t deny
Is flavored by being nice

Of all the traits you show
I can be quite concise
The quality
That matters to me
Is simply that you’re nice

We can build prosperity
At quite a tiny price
If we all chip in
And from within
React by being nice

Share your life with others
And never think twice
About your choice
Of a loving voice
And choosing to be nice

Just be nice.  It's easy to do.  Being nice can build wealth and prosperity in your life and in the world.  

You've felt the impact when someone is not nice to you, and you've experienced the uplift when someone does show kindness and care about you personally.

It's a big world, and we have different habits, hobbies, politics, nationalities, religions, views, and beliefs, but we can still be nice!

You Can’t Afford To Be Afraid...  
To... HAVE YOUR SAY... !!!

Our...  Freedom of Speech...

That Are Proved To Speak TRUTH...  
  
But... Is THAT TRUE... ?!?
  
Cos’ Who’s Fooling Who...  
When It Comes To The News... ?  
  
And Speech On Vaccines...  
Because Any Kind of Speech...  
Linking Them To 5G...  
  
Is QUICKLY Deemed...  
To Be Some Kind of THEORY...  
That Is... PURE FALLACY... !!!
  
And A Conspiracy That...  
Has NO Basis In FACT... !!!
  
But That Shouldn’t Mean...  
That Those Whose Beliefs...  
Do Not Agree...  
With Those Who Lead...  
And Speak On TV...  
  
Now Should NOT Be Heard...  
Or Be Allowed To Be Seen... !?!  
  
So Folks HAVE YOUR SAY... !!!  
..... WITHOUT DELAY..... !!!  
  
Because It’s Okay To Disagree...  
With Mainstream Teams...  
And What They MANDATE... !!!
  
As Well As DICTATE...  
Pretty Much EVERYDAY... !!!
  
Into Peoples Pysches...  
And In Turn Their Mind States...  
  
As Being What’s RIGHT...  
And The Truth About Why...  
We’re Needing Lockdowns...  
And Vaccinations To Get Around...  
And Have Vacations In NICE Locations... !!!  
  
So... HAVE YOUR SAY...  
Because THEY Have THEIRS... !!!  
  
Those With FAME...  
And These WEALTHY Heirs... !!!  
  
Who Speak FREELY...  
EVEN When Their Speech...  
Is HATEFUL And MEAN... !!!!!  
  
Like PM’s... MP’s...  
And Presidents Seen...  
In... TWENTY TWENTY... !!!  
  
And As For The Blender...  
of Modern Day Genders...  
Are People NOT FREE...  
To Air The Kind of Speech...  
That Doesn’t Agree...  
With How They Be... ?!?  
  
Anti Hate Laws...

While Racists Seem...  
To Just Make Apologies...  
And Don’t Get As Much Grief...  
From These Cancel Police...  
  
When They Use Terms...  
Like... “ Piccaninnies “... !?!
  
Double Standards And...  
...... MUCH HYPOCRISY...... !!!
  
Go With Policies...  
That Now SUDDENLY...
Have Come To The FORE...  
In A Time Where Disease...  
Is RUINING MORE...  
Than Economies... !!!  
  
Freedoms SHREDDED...  
Whilst Normalcy’s Presented...  
  
... In A Whole NEW Way... !!!  
  
So HAVE YOUR SAY... !!!  
Before It’s TOO LATE... !!!  
  
And BEFORE Things Sway...
Towards Police States...  
Being What We Face...  
ALL OVER The Place... !!!  
  
Don’t Delay And Wait...  
And THEN COMPLAIN... ?!?
  
When You Are Told...  
To Keep Your Mouth Closed...  
By Those Who Control... !!!  
  
Who Don’t Seem To Know...  
How They Should Behave...  
In Political Zones... !?!  
  
They’re Being Exposed...  
And Being Shamed...  
More And More Nowadays... !!!
  
So Before They Make Claims...  
And Laws That Change...  
How People Can Relate...  
Their Views On Their Ways...  
And Demands That They Make...  
  
That Are Found To Be FAKE... !!!
  
Don’t Make The Mistake...  
of Choosing To WAIT...  
Because Your AFRAID...  
To Voice Your Opinion...  
On Things Like Dominion...  
Gender And Prescriptions...  
Now Causing Divisions... !!!  
  
RESTRICTIONS To Living...  
And FREEDOM of THINKING...  
  
I Suggest You Make SURE...  
That You DO NOT DELAY...  
  
When It Comes To The FREEDOM...
  
To...  
  
..... “Have Your Say”..... !!!
When it comes to freedom of speech, it should never have become, one rule for one, whilst being different for another !

So, as the poem suggests, have yours, before you can't !
Your Name in All of My Poems

No matter what I write, you influence me
It’s your voice reading the words in my head
It’s your breath in the wind
And I find your name in all of my poems

Be quiet maybe smart
but no

Truly how far are
are you going to go

With your voice unheard
just knowing your opinion
is not being heard

So although most are quiet
in the response, but if you are silent

You give them the power, and that's
on you cause you have the power

It's just you gave up when the work
get's tuff

So you may be thinking to be
quiet it the best

But it's only letting other
stop you from your goal in life
Just speak voice your side of anything cause your story is worth the time

I wish I had learned to play an instrument
there is an untouched part of my soul
that will never have a voice
a chance of expression
I can never be truly lost
in music
