The white man, can't say the word ***** They say because its offensive, it's rude, but I know the real reason why. I know, because that's what I am; a ****** Born as a ****** lived as ****** I know why the white man can't say the word ****** They say that it makes no sense for the blacks to use this insulting, disgusting term for themselves, but only because they don't know the true meaning. We bear the name as a scar, as a reminder of what we fought, of what we were. We bear the name as a reminder of our ancestors, and their long hot days in the cotton fields, picking until their finger tips were raw with blood, whipped until their skin was indistinguishable from the raw fleshy pulp that was their aggravated flesh laced with the crimson nectar of their veins. We bear the name, to remind ourselves, that even amidst all this we lived. We fought our way through the darkness of the tunnel. We bear our scar, to remind us, to remind you, that we survived, that we are survivors. I bear the name, I bear the scar of a ****** That is why we call ourselves the name ****** It is our word of honor, our mark of surviving. The white man is not worthy enough to call me a ******

My love for you is complicated. Sometimes you make me so aggravated, while other times I'm just fascinated. You are always so close to me. They make me wish we could just be free and from this world, we flee. It's as if you make me want to want you. I have no clue what to do. Just you are my one and only Even if you make me feel so lonely. But is our love just phony?

complicated
She’s the girl who you'd always run back to, You’re the boy I’d always run back to. She’s the girl who gave you the chills with her beauty, You give me the chills with yours. It’s funny how times change, People you once loved now become strangers. But- she’s a parasite, Always latching onto you and taking what she can. A symptom of a parasite is disturbed sleep, She disturbs my sleep. When I close my eyes I see her eyes, Staring into yours. One cure for a parasite is coconut oil, But no oil or remedy will remove her. The thought of her makes me aggravated, Intimidated because really I’m giving her what she wants- you. I’d like to say everything was fine until she came along, However, she was always there. We are smooth like foundation, Then she comes along, our plates collide and the bumps in the road grow. Now, I’m not one to gamble, But I bet you’re talking to her right now. Sorry I mean, I bet she’s talking to you, Because we both know she can’t get enough. I know you feel bad for her and I know you love me, But why do you feel the need to type to x’s and give her promises I’ll make sure you won’t keep. See, bless her, she’s having trouble moving on, Clearly she loved you more than you loved her because you turned a page and started writing a new song. The girl doesn’t threaten me, I know we make each other feel new. The only thing that makes me hurt, Is how you aren’t letting her get over you. You compliment, flirt and put kisses, Just so she stays tame. But to her you compliment, flirt and put kisses, Because you clearly want her again. She’s the girl who you'd always run back to, You’re the boy I’d always run back to. She’s the girl who gave you the chills with her beauty, You give me the chills with yours. One cure for a parasite is coconut oil, You know her a lot better than me. Maybe she’s allergic to coconuts… Maybe.

Coconut Oil (Original)
She’s the girl who you'd always run back to, You’re the boy I’d always run back to. She’s the girl who gave you the chills with her beauty, You give me the chills with yours.

I’m fine, thanks…                                                                                                                                                  Is that what you truly mean? Or do you mean I’m tired… I’m lonely… I’m hurt… Confused. Bewildered. Angered. Disillusioned… Skeptical… Or maybe I’m distressed… I’m woeful… I’m pathetic… Lost. Vulnerable. Infuriated… Empty. Lifeless. Crushed. Tortured. Dejected. Offended. Afflicted. Desolate. Desperate. Rejected. Heartbroken… Tormented… I’m scared… I’m disgruntled… Embarrassed… Weak. Dreadful. Hungry. Aggravated.

How Are You?
Earlier today, painting was the activity that we had planned I have a support teacher who would always lend a hand She had left the class to get the paint all mixed While I stayed behind to get the toys and props all fixed She came back and bore bowls of red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. Lunchtime I visited a store and neatly displayed on low shelves Arranged so immaculately as if magically done by elves Were cases upon cases stitched together with only zips They almost instantly bent a smile to my lips Their colours shone brilliant red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. Passed by a shop selling accessories and apparel Merchandise dangled on wall hooks and some in a jumble On the adjacent wall something caught my eye Carried all the neat little tote bags one could ever buy One peeking from a corner was red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. Walked by a building, so modern-looking and new Down on one side almost obscured from view Were these horizontal rows of dancing neon lights Stopped for a minute just to soak in the sights Then I realised that they flickered red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. Waited for the bus to get home at my usual bus stop Whilst waiting, I shifted and from my bag something did drop Bent over and picked my coin pouch that had fallen out Looked up only to see another commuter lingering about On his pack was a sticker which boasted red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. Bus was packed, found a seat in the back row Sat myself down, I peered briefly out the window Engine under me, I scanned around to those who were seated Observed the floor beneath my shoes as it vibrated My pair of Adidas, oh my, they're red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. Got home, put my bag down and sank into the sofa Switched on the telly, on was the Food Network's "Barefoot Contessa" Surfed through the channels, caught a real estate commercial Promoting prime land in a country not anywhere regional Splashed on the screen, a flag - red, white and blue Made me think of...well, made me think of you. End of the day, it is best that I hit the sack Allow some rest for my poor aggravated back But not till I complete the words you're currently reading I'm thinking, dreaming and furiously typing How do I end this? Hmm...red, white and blue? I'm thinking and dreaming...and wishing I'm with you.

Smooth chill out for the soul
i’ve long dreamt of black flags in the streets tonight i marched beneath the shadow of their wings shoulder-to-shoulder in hope and solidarity an anarchist professor with a climate change activist an independent journalist and one of my students as mid-November winds tugged at her pink-and-brunette hair she lifted a hand-drawn sign of a gigantic sneaker smashing a **** and i felt for not the first time an enormous sense of pride how humbling to at once inspire and be inspired by an eighteen-year-old punk and artist who asked to borrow The Moral Imperative of Revolt two scant months ago then took to the streets to oppose and depose a twisted fascist virtuoso for two whole hours we hundreds owned the streets we marched down Rosalind Central and Orange Avenue as protest slogans rang angelic we raised hell and found heaven in liberty equality and solidarity but then the pigs closed in cordoned to Lake Eola to scream acquiescent rhetoric at the fish sleeping blissful in their innocence beneath the jet black surface a half-dozen cops in riot gear astride horses loomed ominous before us backlit by the headlights of the aggravated motorists our march had forestalled as the people abandoned the streets we’d won so easily i felt my chest wilt beneath the weight of forsaken opportunity my eyes scanned the remaining crowd four stood strong rooted to the concrete by the world's weight anchored by conviction an anarchist professor an independent journalist a climate change activist and a freshman college student i heard the professor whisper to his student i heard him say she'd put herself in harm’s way that they'd lost the day when the marchers turned their backs and walked away but she didn’t flinch or move an inch she stood silent and vigilant shoulder-to-shoulder chin held almost as high as her Nazi-smashing protest sign and her matching middle finger and in that moment i could’ve died smiling

The ***tilt of my seesaw is decidedly downward facing dog: and there’s no rush to judgment, for the powers that be, be delighted by slow-walking, making the waiting max-tortuous, but am of an age when everything, even the long buried sins and unkept promises, poke and **** nonstop, and the formulae once relied upon to ease incipient self-deception, to temporize and salve the consternations of unkempt aggravated remorse failures, as aged misdemeanors be matured felonies, I blurt and declare guilt to all, alas, and yet, always an and yet in the ultimate crushing of tardiness, knotted by an indignity of silence, no one is desirous of taking my*** confession 5:10pm Thu Jan 28 2023

my failing grade...a year ago
Walking, always walking, Puzzled youth being funneled like cattle, Seek shelter from the sun, Jeer and poke at each other, All from the safety of their cell phones. Constantly seeking that one undesired retention Of jukebox explosion catapults. Thrusting us deeper into the mind/brain paradox What is this? What are these strange mutterings in the dark? Babysitting wasp nests by electro shock railroads, Disgust in the face of the many. Where is this golden eclipse we’re all waiting for? How can I not see the spiders on my windowsill? Are these anguished, infantile youth truly desired? Aggravated Neanderthal men Try to impress pulsating goddesses of Light, All to no prevail. Sickening feeling in the gut, Why aren’t you here? Well I suppose, Things have changed. The Empress of the tunnel Seeks out the empire halls Of the tunnel-bound angst, Musicians in the hall strumming There thoughtless musings, While the the debutantes watch and listen. The intensity is unbearable to them, They must seek shelter in their ipods. Milk, must have it. Watching them creep through the cafe, May they one day find what they’re seeking. Where are they? Sitting here by myself, Look at them jeering at each other In their own jargons. Have they seeked out the pleasure of life? Dream-like meditations, Well-rounded views of life, Happiness within. Dumbly smile at each other, Seeking closeness, Mind/body consciousness

The ******** in making, Enjoy the pleasures of faking. My thoughts still fleeting, Sheared off yet bleating. The rake inside me awakened, Morals yet again threatened. The devil's awake agile and ready, Conscience breached and unsteady. My head remains heavy and pensive, A ******* yet again shall live. Ransacked of all what I had, Forlorn with thoughts, sad. Leaves me hollow inside and out, Void inside wishes to scream and shout.

Aggravated To Misery
lovely, these pages I sew for sadness I know not to tamper with like a joke - a sick joke that people find amusing. I do not find that kind of joke, or you to be amusing. I clasp my hands tightly together, interlocking knuckles and sit very still while the company is antsy to inspect me for any weakness. (I am always assuming everyone is out to judge me so rashly) I am straining my back and the very moment I slouch, I will fall into the pit of self-irritability, yelling at myself because my bones persist on frangibility. God! am I ever good enough?! (I am always judging myself so rashly) I want to buy myself a cottage near a swamp, hoarding the repugnant slime near my fireplace cozied up reading a book. you may trespass; I am willing to share this (hell) with you if you wish to get so close to me. I do though, (at my best) suffice lingering around buying myself something nice (you could put it) when I'm aggravated, I tend not to listen not even to my own advice.

the battle with aggravation
hate, like flames in someone's eyes, anger which makes you want to hurt, vexation provoked by fury, and fury held inside. The state of being annoyed, displeasure arouse by grievance, a taste of bitterness caused by outrage, and outrage internally kept. maddening violence aggravated by exasperation, indignation evoked by irritation and irritation born privately.

Insideout feeling
It seems as if I have no time for time. I do not make enough time to read all the books I have bought or learn something genuinely new on guitar. my short efforts on learning the ukelele violin and piano have failed. Not enough time to study and understand philosophy, or read over history Not enough time to dedicate to both school and art, Not enough ardency for my job. I have fallen into mediocrity I resent it. I resent it so. My album that I am recording is not good enough. My reading habits are almost nonexistent My photos are starting to look the same I used to be above the rest but they have caught up and are now excelling pass me. Where am I then? Am I just the typical hipster philosopher musician Who’s greatest work will only be seen through the narrow window of a tumblr poem? And oh look, another aggravated, angsty poem on tumblr, how special. Frankly, I do not know how to balance it all. And deep down I know even if I found a way, I might cease to care. And however many years from now, even if my album is on the top charts I have read dozens of books And learned and experienced so much I think I will always believe That I do not know, or do enough.

Hipster Philosopher
It is not unusual that at some point in our lives we will have to deal with a tense encounter where words will be exchanged in an environment of anger with others. Usually there is one person who is in less control of himself and poses a greater risk to harm the other. How do you defuse the situation? How do you calm someone who is angry? First, talk with a low calm voice. Secondly, show them your white teeth (smile), if possible. And don't look them directly in the face. These three suggestions are predicated on the fact that they are all non-engaging and have a tendency to calm or reduce tension from the aggravated party. It all starts by using the wrong words, or the right words interpreted the wrong way by the offended party. This escalates potentially becoming a provocation by someone who is incensed or upset over a matter. Angry words then usually follow. Depending on how you handle things, will determine whether you succeed to defuse the situation or not. And sometimes, just sometimes, friendship regains that upper hand. This is the best case scenario which everyone could only want. I tried to capture all this with a short Haiku that now follows: **a word, provoking angry words are now exchanged smiles come, peace remains** As an interesting afterthought, a person once shared with me his unusual approach he himself uses to avoid getting angry. He told me whenever he feels that he is about to get angry he forces himself to laugh uncontrollably and loud that his anger not "take control of Him." He said it works. I am fortunately happy to tell you have never had a chance to test his system out.

Up , in a long wavy personality . Waking the morning with my commitment to it's day . Way too slight to storm the day . Open the door to a gray cloudy breeze . Slip out with ease onto the concrete leaf . A page out of my very own book . Liking the very way the ink bleed ; Write off the tip, a pen that would rip right through another's book. Soft to the touch, you fell cause you might slip right through . Although the heart felt tipped utensil causes you to breathe . With all the wind in my atmosphere, a tornado caused . You to turn and run . Opens my hidden twists, up with a given gist . Like an autumn oak tree, letting go isn't so uncommon . But still a shipped away surprise, . So many unforgiving goodbyes . A tear without anyone to give it a cry / / Such a subtle generosity, so much so . You might forget all beauty ever existed . Me and memories go together, like mine was an aggravated death . Worth killing to a Saint , And none of the happiness was great . Out of the blue, and only for another shade of green . Jealous and out of the way, So they faded navigated away. Orange and ravenous red . Foundation for success, Paved a walk way for a street walker like hiss.. Step away and porcelain eyes . Pierce once again . Follow the haze with outa braze . No touch, glass chimes. Together once , noise of fine dining . Couples and territorial squint . Soothing child , for a partner for life. Love for the second child in the other . Like a bad photo shop . No edit, just chop , black dot .

So every morning my dad fixes coffee and I drink some. I sit at my desk, Catching up with everything that I missed over the night. I pick up my coffee cup, When it gets above my upper thigh, I have no idea what I did... But I spilled a few drops on my lucky Thumper pajama pants. "Dang it..." I take a sip.. Then set the cup back down On the cup's way to my desk.. I spill some coffee on my right foot.. "Grrr..." I set the coffee cup down a little harder... And it goes over on my mouse-pad. I glare at the cup.. This cup has always been nice to me, I don't know why it isn't now. So about five minutes later I pick the cup back up again And once again once it is over my thigh, Coffee spills over in the same spot. I take a sip, set the cup down, and look at my pants.. "My Thumper pants are going to have a coffee stain on it." Still aggravated with my coffee and my cup, I pick it back up again... While the cup is in my hand is take a different route to my mouth.. It's almost to my mouth when it drops some more coffee on my pants and pajama shirt... So here I am in my school clothes, With left over coffee in the cup.. Afraid to drink it. I take a sip and I don't spill anything... I have come to this conclusion: The coffee and the cup hated my Thumper pants and my tank top. That was my morning, this morning.

Enclosed In the cottage If this Writer’s Blockage Lasts For too long How lost Would I be The reason For being Alone this season Was to grow My talents Like an Eagle’s talons And claw through The surface For the purpose Of providing A service That Serves vice The plate of truth Unknowing to those Who don’t know Right From wrong Produced as a song Bereft of a beat Unleft alone The agitation Becomes aggravated assault As I rip the pages Out the book To my own fault I locked the lessons I was to learn In a vault Which doesn’t collapsed Under the pressure But becomes stronger Time lapses As my mind run laps And replays the days When control Was in tact Now I let loose And dug myself Further in the hole Any further Sleep’s cousin Will become us Me And my goals Lie dead in the same bed All because I was too proud To beg Myself for forgiveness Of putting me in this prison Away from society With plans To raise propriety But how Can one learn To better himself When he’s alone With no teacher But himself So selfish of me To leave The fate of the world In my hands Too stubborn To share My final air With theirs

Cabin Fever
Beaten-in-dirt-roads led us to a foggy marsh you called the place to be. Our heads kept still as we watched eggs hatch beneath the algae. Our bodies swaying like the limbs of a willow we almost forgot about. Preoccupied with catching tadpoles, we never noticed temptation creeping up behind tomorrow. Aggravated, he whispered: I'm waiting.

Looking for inspiration In a desolate dreary wasteland The same **** just different days spent Hoping life will finally make sense Cos I've got bored and aggravated With the drama I know will unfold Is this really the end of the road before me I behold? So I form facts from fiction To try avoid repetition Of dreary events to which each week ends But my yesterdays tomorrow You know so my yesterday will follow today A bit like Bill Murray From that film Groundhog Day But with a lot less adventure Or comedic reflection A script not to question And no seams between scenes I'm caught in a dream I can't see me come free from Those are the facts son There's no lights camera action No glitz and no glamour Definitely no famous actor With the hardest tasks keeping track of... Straight from morning to night In the flash of an eye The same simple ending A yawn then a sigh Only to wake with a shudder Butterflies inside flutter Feeling nothing but gutted No new day No new dollar It's the same as before As I walk out the door The same route to work To live out another day stuck in my white collar Call Centre curse

White Collar Worker
1 There are more penetrating people if not the death of, as in living in this very livid moment of the unsure which is a surety. Falsify me. Growing heavy with the absurd. To face you, me -- more mirror the blank end of a chamber, or if that you must **** me, do it at the plaza in front of my mother. That if you must lament me over the lapped up moment of some false life the invented and wrong, do it. Do it. ****** me the unassailable truth that is, I am capable to splinter this moment and that it still lives like a sprawled body spilled from the mouth in the bathroom -- it still lives: you have to be quick. 2 Once have you been startled by the form of absence as a letter slid underneath the soft and warm pocket of your mouth like it was the first time to have a naked body pointed at you, all with it trying to predict you in a sterile room, and is more shattering than an aggravated twilight. Who, at first thought, was there behind the trigger, and was ***** drunk with any other pretense apart from the face that ***** hates that common meeting within the day’s fine-tuned crosshair? 3 If you listen to it carefully, the music is a mosaic shifting the hypothesis into a pallor of a question back to it again with its basic agony of becoming so bent and so small on paper – which is to say, that we are, if to listen to a droning sound, becoming of it delving deep into the center, checking our own weight like our name after a fall from a high place, they said they would. 4 I have left something in Baguio that I cannot take back – a monochromatic caricature of my face shoved into a crevice waiting for a revision. What have I furthered into?

I do not mourn long Mondays-- Wednesday is gone before I blink back an astonished Tuesday, and at twenty-four already I see my mothers hands sliding across the page That same scrawl following tip of the exigent pen Nervous mind idly stroking bitter torments That which is aggravated swells inflamed. Like a canker sore deep in the inner cheek The tongue rolling and probing, absorbed by each sour pain Carefully plotting little volcanoes across the slick terrain They burst like purple pomegranates pounding spattered cement on mild fall evenings So do people sometimes Through tectonics of the brain Those which could be minor psychological blemishes roar to life. Shifting vast emotional plates behind a cool gaze People hurl carelessness at on another like schoolyard boys chucking helpless frogs at jagged stone walls Ignorant of life's high price And though horrified-- I Can not look away. Eyes bulging, blown out anuses spewing pale intestines slick with blood-- I can not look away. Each giddy chimp, feces Proudly flung-- I do not look away. My heart swollen hungering for that emptiness called humanity Mostly pretense, mostly solitude, mostly cruelty, All personal gain! Meanwhile, brothers and sisters, have you considered the fate of your everlasting soul? I didn't think so Glassy eyes stare beseeching from bathroom mirrors Tear-stained cheeks belie a quizzical half-smile I will meet that insecure gaze promising to seek my own perfect imperfection No longer guilt ridden and ashamed I will hold the reflected stare aloft with my own true eyes and I swear-- I will not look away
