#policy
So far as I see things today, You cannot have a policy Centered on ambiguity And expect people To take you at your word! Even take you as being serious! Seriously, you guys! Seriously! There's a monster on the way! To borrow from an absurdist, comedic series. Yet, the point was lost anyways!

Because Such Policies Are Meaningless!
I mean, it's kinda funny The punishment for life is the death penalty, that's literally the only true guarantee Alterations void the warranty and there's no return policy, which I guess if fine honestly But you can only rotate the tires so many times before it no longer matters A crash will become eminent and just like the windshield, your future also shatters No one's looking for a clock with a erratic tick and a broken tock A polished **** advertised with a tiny sign as a shiny rock Occasionally found screaming at nothing as frustration fills the body and muddies the mind A full breakdown, stuck behind a roadblock, this time one of your own design Trained by history to take every word heard with a pinch of salt Cold and bitter, but is it by default? Is it truly all my fault? ...why was I in such a hurry to be an adult...? I'm gonna go make a fort and sort this all out ©2024

Let's talk honestly shall we? It's easier to have a face to face with the devil To communicate with the dead and summon evil Draw a circle, scratch a pentagram in the middle With a flame dancing on the peak of a candle Flickering at the outmost tips of the symbol Sandle wood incent lit, hit a gong or crash symbol Then a little rhythmic hum to conclude the opening ritual Pretty simple The theatrical aspect varies culture to culture But the critical structure, the essence, the flavor The nature of "just call and I'll be there" is there Let's be honest here, you don't get that with prayer You'd have better luck with a comatose soothsayer A blind palm reader, or and end of days sandwich board holder The one on the corner screaming about unspeakable horror Just think about it What do you got to do to talk to your lord and savior? Is his policy open door? Does he have your back while going through your personal war? You're trying to survive the unjust life he made and you're in store for He just stands back and tallies the score "IF YOU WEREN'T GOING TO HELP THEN WHAT WERE THE EXTRA SET OF FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND FOR?!?" This is straight from his written lore, though purposely vague on what's real and what's a metaphor What are the odds you're right? He designed you to never be able to directly interact, Explain that It's a wildly overlooked fact Infact, It's what knocks his believability off track You look at him and you go blind as a bat, Why would he do that? His voice will cause your ears to bleed if your head doesn't explode on first contact He didn't have to design it like that! The only answered prayers are those of musicians, athletes and the beautiful people who can act The rest of us? Good luck Jack If he hears your prayers then most of the times he's just like, "naw, fuuck that." What's up with that? Pretty convenient ©2024

They landed off from the air as dusts
 Heated, threatened, and crown-caked dusts Those natural winds loudly pronounced their name: “Infectious diseases, we must **** you all!” Children cheer to no school again. Parents again remain home-stay 
Daily test lines are occupied by humans, who keep checking travel healthy kit status, as how the weeds in the winds, as how humans who bow their heads contribute to zero-covid strategies November wind blows out two separate paths An Oriental Lily is counting her tortoise walks  on slow determined feet. Happiness or sorrow two contrasting emotions, he watches her with glossy eyes inviting oriental Lily to join 
his steady aim for contentment, pace of peace.

Oriental Lily
The staff members are the worst they only do their job half way spying on the chief and each other, to blow with the wind when it turns They take care of their career, what is good for them is called good for the cause, they hold on and will spoil everything Even if it's just hearsay a good story is indestructible It steals what you want to have and you black-wash everyone who contradicts to appear white yourself while you are the first to cry 'Stop thief!' with a passing side note which amplifies the rumours by contradicting them

Stop thief!
AFRICA I Pondered What's African Time.⌚ I came to realization, why Africa is yet lacking behind. Because there's no room for orderliness. So God also use African time to answer us. So sad 😔 What a pity Africa! 😔 Are you dead or slept so deeply? Wake up now Africa! Don't be ignorant... Alike the other part of the world wake up! Watch your children and their children with their children's children dying. Hearken now where you're laying. Picture your brethren growing, extraordinarily expanding. Their descendants succeeding, living happily. Africa don't be a black sheep, enough you creep, African got to think deep. Or else there would be no sleep in your eye in the nearest future. Because all your untrained kids wouldn't let you rest upon your peace. Honesty is the best policies. Train your child to be honest. #c9_fm

AFRICA
Several times today, I stepped into stories being presented as appeals for belief because the teller says this is what one of us knows, you must believe, then know… eh? I lift both brows, wrinkle my face, quizzically, and I recall knowing that in the universal truth, there are bubbles of truths about stories, told with idle words that fail to spark the swallow reflex, too sweet… ah, the family time at a theme park, what is the theme Apollo here, Isis there, Jesus, look, it is a ghost, the Ghost of America as we wish it were, we wish it were we wish it we wisht weshit… This is it. 2020. The real future.

As it happens
Can you discuss this with me? Is honesty anyone's best policy? Here, truth is no one's friend, Where does BS start and end?

DISCUSS!
I resist the temptation to become fond of politicians who entertain me with clever lines said with likeable energetic-charisma; Instead, I do my best to evaluate how a politician’s policy-proposals will affect the joy and happiness of myself and others in society.

Are Politicians Entertaining?
Diplomacy is the best policy. Ever since the dawn of man we have waged wars to believe in a fallacy. The future is sacred. With diplomacy on each side we feel no longer naked. Sit down discuss our thoughts. Look we are heading towards the future, look what I brought. Make trade talks with each other. Please be my friend, be my brother. Because without diplomacy the world will come to an end. No more of us having a future, fun, or friend. By backing each other into a corner what will we have? Something that just rips me apart, makes me feel so bad. No more people in love. Just driving a stake through our hearts, no freedom like a dove. History is bound to become true over and over again. Without diplomacy how will we ever find ourselves again? Please if you would spread the news. If you do not believe; please take some time to look at today’s news. With fair talk people seem to react. No more of us fighting *** for tat. Diplomacy gives nobody a raw deal. People do not walk away empty handed for real. Just give it a chance time and time again. Write down your thoughts and express them as well as you can. So practice like we all want to be. A world where we can all sit at peace, and peaceful dreams become reality.

All We Need
Cast your ballot for your party's running mates Strange bedfellows in Roman **** compromising positions Straining to see what once was Their original clear-cut goal (Even the hot sands of the Sahara becomes cold at night). Tarred and feathered goes the ideals Run out of town on a rail of policy. Politics of law Politics of religion Politics on every level No real friend’s only polite interests. Party politics in the bedroom Workplace And church Spinning ethics and morals To be fit for desiccation By whatever spider desires To make their web in Palace royal Church pious Courtroom solemn Family room secure Where only a sort of twisted gestalt Applies and the lesser of two evils is Often greater than the sum of the Two--the package being more Important than the contents. All that Is important is the law of the jungle. Tone-up poser muscles Groom rhetorical fur Sharpen intimidation fangs Demagogic rule being the rule of thumb Firmly planted where the sun never Shines because truth is exposed Only in the light. Plans made in the Nether regions of base instincts Where the true nature Of we humans reluctantly steps Out of its ancient cage nightly to Prowl only to return by morning to Have pure and honourable melodies Sooth the savage breast.

Bring Your Own ***** to the Wild Political Party
In One two three Out One two three. Oxygen isn't as important As pretending it's fine. I feel this weird shattering In my chest It's not depression I'm sure, It's the last of this Little hardened iron shell That I wrap around myself Shattering utterly and entirely. The rust and steel is Falling apart And I realize You're about to see The most vulnerable part of me And I'm very Very Afraid. Not of you But of the shattering parts Of me.

I should try that whole breathing thing.
The thing is The system don’t give Two ***** If you did it Quotas and budgets Require them To prosecute Innocent men Looking for numbers Not trying to solve The problems They got all the power And you wonder why I am slightly unnerved by them Justice is just an illusion Suits and robes Don’t make right All that money That goes to them Now you know why I question how they decide What to do with my life

That Ticket
It's not like the movies, or shows the books and the novels. hollywood's way of cheesy gimmicks. It's not like the Hunger Games! Where people are injected with sweet venom of credulous lies. Where 2 tributes disappears. Every year. Because, right now, right here, we have more. It is 2053. Promises long gone. Contracts expired and conspiracy failed. Betrayed. Lied to. Indoctrinated. Abandoned. Hands over heads. We, at the mercy of the Red Dragon. His highness roams. We, losing our grasps, collapsing. I dreamed a home of peace, safe, with freedom. But it crumpled into a million pieces. No more teases. When they had won. Some people fled. Unbearable of the roads, tainted red. They got lucky. But I'm just a fuming middle aged worthless powerless whatshername. Talk about pity. "I'm young!" But you'll grow old. And I tell you of this. I warn you of this! Because I see it so clearly, so vividly, in your eyes. I see no future of us. Just our minds twisted. Blood and gore mixed with all that we witnessed. Just healthy looking robots. Patriotic robots. Who has forgotten everything.
