#shameful
I am finished. Now. All my cards showing. The embarassing play Burned permanent If I could... Left unfinished by truth. And my reasons? Symbiotic starve without. I just... want Any fractional amount more So I played it Splended in mind alone To win this shame Aspects I never thought Ruined in concept and Delivery at cost of all Hindsight amplifying A conclusion now a fact Why did i think It played out different

Played Out Different
pay more respect to the women working at morgues. they tend to the dead it takes sympathy it takes care it takes courage it takes control not the control of fear of stray souls not the control of fear of phantoms but the control of wanton and that is why men aren't hired by morgues.

morgues
My relationship with life is nonconsensual Now-a-days, a cancelable scandal The back and forth we share is not equal My portion is shameful Should have never taken it past casual That's when it took control Thoughts creep in of the unforgivable Turning out the lights on this carnival The last note I jot on my last thought pressed to vinal Drop the needle at the funeral ©2024

~•§•~ Drop the Needle on the Last Note ~•§•~
I have never met a more complacent lot, Than those of my compatriots; Never have citizens been more obedient, Than those of my immediates. Forget spilled tea, today it's Watered down coffee. Biscuits cut with sawdust Out from smaller & smaller molds, Eating whatever fed us. Cause we all know hunger Believing any narrative pushed so long as it's prevailing; The populace obsessed with popularity. It's a headache & a headrush in the states, Cool if you make the breaks But that's like hitting the ******* lottery. You gotta ask, what gives? What does it take To get a fair chance to stake a claim In a country full of people who don't give a **** What sense does it even make To try, When no one in charge does? For my own lot, & life - Whether tis here or afar

Coercive Acts
You call this living, I call it survival, no more pretending that everyone's equal If all y'all get this undeserved label of special it's disgraceful It's wasteful not wonderful 'cause that means no one is special Just a single shape stencil, a number two if you will, but is it poo or pencil Either way sign below and hand over the soul and no one will get hurt until maybe tomorrow I find it probable that you could choke on the blue and overdose on the red pill Let's go ahead and change the slogan from "We the People" to "We the Sheeple 'Cause look the spectacle, they're herding this flock of bigotry and evil straight to the steeple It's obvious that what they claim to matter is not brain but rather ***** Hopeful it'll go unnoticed that the boat's always had a hole, the cover up comical No intention to fix it though, not that it's impossible, it's just that their main goal has never been to be helpful It's shameful but we're still expected to accept all their bull shiit and be eternally grateful Grateful?! Hell no, I find it hard to be civil with these simple, bottom of the barrel, garbage pail people I watch every good for nothing stereotypical imbecile as they revel in just how little they know about anything useful Shiit, I myself didn't know it was possible to set a bar so low with the refusal to even try and meet somewhere in the middle But they're always able to fall back on denial, hiding behind the iron sights of a rifle, running orange hate straight up the flag pole A don't tread on me disciple with their own personal motto on signature apparel, backing a shadow government tribunal Half occupying a big tent revival, hatting on a manufactured rival just 'cause some *** hat, **** hole said so Grab your personal blind fold at the door before going in to read the vile pages of the bible Trying to convince yourself that it's gospel but if that's true you'd have to accept, then adapt to having a black soul Deep down you already know it's an undeniable abysmal circus clown shiit show What good is having ample evidence if no one's held accountable, even as we sit at the one millionth example We're all banging our heads against this wall like a judge swinging his gavel Now is the time to bail on this nauseating carousel, any hesitation could be futile, not a worth while gamble All the while each illegitimate man child in power hasn't told a single truth in a long while They have the gal to stand in front of a pile of the gullible and lie through a smile And the onlookers soak up this bile as a little dribble of spittle appears as the listeners brain looses signal But for them thinking isn't critical, calling forth the tribulations of revaluations while skipping the trial Forgetting that back when you were just a child you were told not to judge, but a god complex is your desired style Doing the unthinkable has become a profitable ritual, asking for help now treated as rhetorical Historical failures on a global level, the leaders themselves are the perpetual obstacle Only allowed to live so they can make money on your funeral, basic human needs shouldn't be treated as charitable The fix is simple enough to get through even the thick skull of a dude-bro, so you'd think it'd be achievable But our voice is rarely heard, a subtle mic cut before we're able get out anything that resembles a rebuttal So we're stuck getting fuucked in this government funded brothel running out of the basement of a hostel designated as the capital They profess they aren't responsible for the struggle brought on by the fallacies they try and juggle How is this legal? It's gone on this way for so long that it's no longer seen as a scandal, just business as usual Every word hypocritical, right and wrong indistinguishable, as our bill of rights and constitution become controversial There's never been a time in history this hasn't been factual which also means getting out might not be truly achievable Welcome to the show, pick a row and grab a seat, let's watch the slow burn glow And here...we...go... ©2022

Upon the announcement of my arrival my ancestors weaved brillant threads to make a quilt for my bed with steadfast hands, they weaved themselves a plan who i was to become, what kind of man upon the days of my arrival my ancestors fantastically wrapped me up in the quilt of blue and red this quilt housed me for many seasons itched me, pinched me, left me cold at night bit me, tripped me, straggling my rights the brillant quilt made to protect became my golden cage instead their plan created my strife their plan corseted my life after years spent suffocating in the threads i decided to break away from the plan emerging like a little chick out of an egg i chose to live my life today still the foundation laid was unscathed every trigger sent my heart into disarray independence fortified, return to the egg the quilt might be itchy, it might be tight but it is easier than learning how to fly

quilt of shame
Shame stalks me like shadows On my heels Put myself through so much torture Must like the way it feels Blame you for depression I know that isn't true Because I already struggled Before I lost you Words you whispered walk through skull Play phrases on repeat Conscious of fact I'll never hear them again Whimper in defeat In midst of motionless self-pity Chaos indetectably brews Conflicted between sticking up for myself Or withstanding more mistakes I'll excuse A stillness appeared a moment As quickly as arrived it is gone Built on instability Cannot trust pavement I tread upon Rippling across distance Wind melodic Moving Thin Fabric of time and space silky soft Not quite as soft as your skin A trail of kisses leads to waistband By my moseying mouth In turn undress me til body is bare Slowly work your **** sin south Bars of piano play symphonies Resounding from the middle of my mind Waves rolling in and out with the current Notes are far more tender and kind I let myself bask in bittersweet glow Melting due to warmth of total bliss Voice has never sounded so smooth Collision never like this My being joining in rhythm Tangling until we are one We remain connected by flesh Some time after we are done Eventually guilt emerges Torn between directions Why must head and my heart Inhabit different sections? I long to be with you I'm afraid as soon as you know I care Feelings will fade when I close my eyes Open them and again you won't be there

Your Time...
Sometimes I wonder Why my heart chose you Because I'm getting married And you're married too Sometimes I wonder Will we ever talk And if you made a move Would I reciprocate or walk Sometimes I wonder Does she know my name Does anyone know about me Do you wonder the same Sometimes I wonder That maybe he knows But when I spoke the words I liked you The joke went right under his nose Sometimes I wonder Have I read the signs wrong Or if you've written about me Because I know you write songs Sometimes I wonder Will these feelings ever end Because when I get married I don't want to pretend

If I was a painting I would be the chewed up canvas, dashed in disgruntled colours, torn from the easel in dismay and cast aside in neglect. I am a failed first draft that nobody wants to read.

Creative self-loathing
Either they don't imagine guys like me anymore, Or they can't trust & hold on to guys like me any longer. Such is the vanishing breed of the good guy-cum-tiger, Perhaps they are so used to living in evil that good seems evil ever. Succumbing to emotional injuries we get softer, Perhaps we have learnt to subjugate forever.

Sad Story
Maybe if I cut myself Or made myself prettier and thinner Then you would love me, Not leave me all alone. Maybe if I made that jump Or made myself in your image Then I would finally be good enough And not an outcast. Maybe if I cut myself Or made myself prettier and thinner Then you would finally love me And I wouldn't be the shameful daughter.
