An Intro to Alec
A paper crown, and a heart made of glass A tattered gown, and her kingdom of ash She walks alone, she can never look back The story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea She'll make it out, but she's never the same She's looking down, at the scars that remain But you hold your ground, though your kingdoms in flames Cause it's the story of a queen who's castle has fallen to the sea Knowing there's no one who will be a king that will come and save his queen When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds When all she is, and ever was, is compromised Cause there's no one to love her When you build your walls too high And there's no one to love you when you build your walls too high She's looking out, from the war that's inside She's screaming out, cause no one survived But when you're all alone, you wait and you hide Cause it's the story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea Knowing, there's no one who will be a king that will come and save his queen When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds When all she is, and ever was, is compromised Cause there's no one to love her When you built your walls too high And there's no one to love you when you build your walls too high There is no one, who is strong enough, to save your love There's no fairytale There's no fairytale When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds When all she is, and ever was, is compromised Cause there's no one to love her When you build your walls too high And there's no one to love you when you trap yourself inside

Paper Crown by Alec Benjamin
A paper crown, and a heart made of glass A tattered gown, and her kingdom of ash She walks alone, she can never look back The story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea She'll make it out, but she's never the same She's looking down, at the scars that remain But you hold your ground, though your kingdoms in flames Cause it's the story of a queen who's castle has fallen to the sea Knowing there's no one who will be a king that will come and save his queen When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds When all she is, and ever was, is compromised Cause there's no one to love her When you build your walls too high And there's no one to love you when you build your walls too high She's looking out, from the war that's inside She's screaming out, cause no one survived But when you're all alone, you wait and you hide Cause it's the story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea Knowing, there's no one who will be a king that will come and save his queen When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds When all she is, and ever was, is compromised Cause there's no one to love her When you built your walls too high And there's no one to love you when you build your walls too high There is no one, who is strong enough, to save your love There's no fairytale There's no fairytale When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds When all she is, and ever was, is compromised Cause there's no one to love her When you build your walls too high And there's no one to love you when you trap yourself inside

One Bill makes us stronger, and one Bill makes them fall And the Bills the public gives you, just won’t do it at all Go ask ALEC*, cuz it’s their call And if you go raising money, and think the are gonna stall Tell’em you’re hook, line, and sinker, and giving them your all Then call ALEC, for it’s their call When the Rich own the chessboard get up and tell you how to vote And you’ve just left their boardroom, and possess the motherload Go ask ALEC, which way to go When law and constitution have fallen sloppy dead And the White-Right is walking backwards And the Orange King’s out of his head Remember what your ALEC said We’re in bed, we’re in bed *American Legislative Exchange Council

White Repabbit (White Rabbit, Jefferson Airplane)
*Alec broke my heart As easily as Will had Down to the day Exactly one year ago Will left never saying goodbye Never settling anything They were polar opposites Will and Alec Will, angry and pessimistic Alec, happy and bright Ones heart had been broken and had turned to stone The others never known what love was or how much it hurt    One thing was the same My greatest weakness Their eyes The most beautiful eyes I'd ever seen A deep blue ocean I was lost at sea I'd died a thousand deaths in them Will's eyes were beautiful But there was something in them Darkness hide behind the beauty   Much pain and agony hid from the light There was no light in his eyes, but only anger Alec's eyes were equally beautiful There was something in them too In those eyes was a light It showed that he had nothing to hide They showed that no one had ever broken his heart Yet both those oceans captivated me There was nothing I could do to resist them The more I fought, the more I fell Head over heels for them But neither seemed to feel the same I was not their sun and stars I was never their Aphrodite Though they were my world And they were my life Alec broke my heart Just as easily as Will had Exactly one year ago*

Who I Really Am
Wee, sleekit, cowrin', tim'rous nation Don't get ideas above your station Take heed the rising indignation You've unleashed - You've had your little conversation, Now haud yer wheesht! Aye, very good, there's been a swing and Salmond, he who would be king believes you'll have your Arab Spring - But who's he kidding? Just settle back 'neath mammy's wing and do our bidding So what? Your little movement's grown Brainwashed by Alec's endless drone You'll never make it on your own But we'll protect you There's monsters in the great unknown They're out to get you! But don't believe us out of fear Rewards will come if you stay near Unthought of riches will appear And never stop! For starters? Why, just lookee here - This lollipop! We think the course that would be kindest Is put this ugly thought behind us And focus on the ties that bind us The blood, the soil (And since we're pals you will not mind as we nab the oil!) We've all enjoyed this wee distraction You're an amusing little faction You've had your day of satisfaction But now it's crucial We get Great Britain back in action - Business as usual.

*pronouns as non-identifiers of nouns equate to excess psychiatric diagnoses. yet using this direct symptomatic identification of matters is unsatisfying due to the fact that one would rather expand one's vocabulary in other interesting areas other than: bilingual bipolar, unipolar depression etc., usually starting with family genus in latin, of carnivores.* it was the most amazing dream, i was walking through dreamy venice to a beach enclave with many boats, bella, my alsatian shepherd was walking with me, but i didn't have her free roaming without a leash or on a leash: my right hand was behind my back and her snout was cupped in my hand, and she was sniffing something and walking obediently; i was trying to get onto a seaplane. someone else with a dog was there, i let bella have a wee dip in swimming with elephants and horses, head bopping above the sea, three men and a sycophant woman were there too looking mighty interested in something that would otherwise dictate a chance-opportunity of autography - then the lament started.

silly love letters, late nights, and best friends. the best of times, the worst of times, but we never wanted it to end. friday nights were for football games, which for us meant coffee and candy while critiquing the class of twenty thirteen. we used to drive my ****** mazda every other weekend-- it was tradition. we played uno and drank coffee black with our sever pal named Alec. during the cold months, we busted out our leather jackets and listened to “the beers” while talking about love, dreams, and fears. much older now, we are, in places we never dreamed we would be, when we were only sixteen. I don't see her much, but we have memories. but there was something she said to me, it will always hold some shining light. she said I taught her no matter how rough life gets, Denny’s always serves coffee late at night.

5 friends from California. The front man being Alec ******* Mann. Chiseled from the gods. Pretty. Oh so ******* pretty.  He had olive skin stretched over long and lean muscle and then covered in tattoos. His " I don't care hair" was  wavy with hints of sand mixed with hues of medium brown.  His eyes slanted slightly downward and were of an almond shape. The irises a deep honey brown; though later I realize can change.  His cheek bones were a  gift to him  from a  close native American bloodline. I cant say enough to do his mouth justice. Wide. I still cant look at it too long without getting soak and wet.  He wasn't the type of man that should be real. But,  he was real enough. Real on screen, real in articles and interviews , real in the fantasies of many, and eventually very real to me.

Who thinks they have the right to stand in front of the room as the center of attention, saying only the first thing that comes to mind? Who would expose only rudeness to whomever puts in the effort to be loving and appropriately concered. The smart Alec refuses to learn. Only a fool would say the phrases that are silly and untrue. A smart Alec may have a brain but never a clue. And for the lonely soul with issues in boundaries has no idea where the limits lie. Walks in uninvited, puts words in the mouth, and unrightfully gives advice within a bribe. Though I can't change a fool or a smart Alec, and I can't take away somebody's boundary issues like a magic trick. So I stand my ground, and my shoulder is cold with ice. Don't have to be a friend, no need for me to be nice. Just need to treat them fair and always Avoid getting into fights. And those are my rights.

I’ve decided I’ve more things to say, Thoughts wishing to escape my brain, Whether it’s wrong or whether it’s right, Prepare for a third piece of my mind. Is it just me, Or is communicating, The hardest trial of life? Living isn’t hard to me, It’s coexisting that’s filled with strife. Trying and failing to express ideas, In a way that makes sense, That they can comprehend, These abstractions of thoughts in my head. Talking is hard, Especially when your mouth and your brain, Aren’t on the same wavelength. You think one thing, And say another, Leaving nothing but shame, And discomfort. Sometimes you say the wrong things, At the wrong time, To the wrong person, Such is life. They push you away, You feel regret, Part of the process, You can’t take it back. Apologies are just more words, Added to the wound, Actions are more powerful, For better or for worse. There’s something mesmerizing about the piano, One of, if not, my favorite instruments. The piano can make me happy, Nostalgic, Sad, Or bittersweet, All with a couple of keys. How powerful when held, Hearing the strings ring. However, I prefer the sad piano songs, They do a perfect job, Painting the scene, Of bittersweet contentment. The somber melodies make me long, For those early childhood days, The ones I rarely remember, Basking in the sun’s rays. How miraculous, And part of what makes the human experience so grand, How these feelings can be stirred, From a few notes played, On a grand piano. To fit with the tradition, I’ll quote a song by Alec Benjamin, This one titled, “The Plan,” This is the chorus. “What I wanted then isn’t what I’ve got now, But if I did it again I wouldn’t change it anyhow, I had a vision in my head, I even wrote it all down, The plan didn’t work but it all worked out. The plan didn’t work but it all worked out.” This song laments on how plans can change, And paths we’re lead can be different than what we imagine, Yet, even so, The path we’re on, Is the one we’re meant to walk I agree… Sometimes it’s difficult for me to distinguish, Between an acquaintance and a friend. Is it based on time known? Or the quality of the relationship? Or how well you click? Or do I just overcomplicate it? Sometimes I wish, I thought less, Because sometimes it seems, Like a curse… Here we are at the end, Another poem at its conclusion, My mind feels at ease, Finally feeling included. Only one more piece of my mind remains to be said, The rest I’ll keep hidden in my head. Farewell, Until next time, Where I unleash, The final piece of my mind…

A Third Piece Of My Mind
I’ve decided I’ve more things to say, Thoughts wishing to escape my brain, Whether it’s wrong or whether it’s right, Prepare for a third piece of my mind.

Trying and failing to express ideas, In a way that makes sense, That they can comprehend, These abstractions of thoughts in my head. Talking is hard, Especially when your mouth and your brain, Aren’t on the same wavelength. You think one thing, And say another, Leaving nothing but shame, And discomfort.

The black man's searching for a job, but the black man's made to **** and rob. This side of town is the black man's rez and the judges do what ALEC says and they know he'll just be back again so they give the mandatory ten. Where's the sunny kid that the world likes? Well, we've got drug laws and we've got three strikes and he learns right quick that he better plead; if you lose in court, then you're never freed, so he's in another world of hurt, he's a felon now 'til he's in the dirt and it won't be soon that he's seen again, making Walmart slacks in a private pen. He's a slave again, and he's off the street, and by other names smells just as sweet.

May the Circle be Unbroken
I’ve got a few things I want to say, A few thoughts rattling around in my brain, And though it may seem impolite, I’m going to give you a piece of my mind. I know I haven’t been around a long time, Just a decade and a half. However, I’ve still learned a thing or two, About this world filled with gaffes. This world’s a scary place, Full of scary people, And if you’re not careful, They’ll eat you alive, Chew you up, and spit you out, With no regard for your life or your health. We’re dancing in a fire, Of our own making, As people continue whining and complaining. We need saving, Oh, how we need saving. It’s ironic, How our greatest foe is ourselves, So much petty bickering, Chastises the thinking, Until we’re at a point where we can’t do anything. Who can you trust? Your neighbor could be just, Or a sociopath, Hiding behind a mask. Is everyone a friend? Or is everyone a foe? Or is there more nuance? How are we to know? Till it’s too late, And we’re beaten down, Lost everything, To a monster. Highschool’s a mess, No finesse, Filled with stress, And depression. On a quest, To reassess, And to suppress, All unnecessary emotions. Don’t want to sound too forlorn, But is it too much to ask to live in a world, Where everyday doesn’t feel like a chore, Just to push through? So much strife, All through life. Is it right, Or wrong? When does life, Become less about surviving, And more about living, In this crazy time? Seven hours, Seven different subjects, Piled onto a developing mind. Some unnecessary, Others are vital, Few are a waste of time. While everyone discovers their niche, A fight for survival, Some parts are primal, Survival of the fittest they say, It’s a shame that not everyone makes it out, To fight another day. To quote one of my favorite songs, By a man named Alec Benjamin, Titled “Gotta Be A Reason.” “There’s gotta be a reason that I’m here on Earth, Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt. Oh, the changing of the seasons never changed my hurt. So what’s it worth, what’s it worth?” I believe that things happen for a reason, Good or bad, Then you have to question, What the reason truly is? This world’s a crazy place, Full of crazy people, And if you’re not careful, They’ll eat you alive, Chew you up, and spit you out, With no regard for your life or your health. We’re dancing in a fire, Of our own making, And no amount of raining, Can drown out the whining and complaining. We need saving, Oh, how we need saving. So there you go, I opened up the vault, And gave you a sample, Of what’s inside my heart. Take it as you’d like, There’s not much more to say, That’s just how I feel, This specific day. I have a feeling of dread, As this year approaches its end. 2025. By mid-March, I’ll be able to drive. God, how time flies…

A Piece of My Mind
I’ve got a few things I want to say, A few thoughts rattling around in my brain, And though it may seem impolite, I’m going to give you a piece of my mind. I know I haven’t been around a long time, Just a decade and a half. However, I’ve still learned a thing or two, About this world filled with gaffes. This world’s a scary place, Full of scary people, And if you’re not careful, They’ll eat you alive, Chew you up, and spit you out, With no regard for your life or your health. We’re dancing in a fire, Of our own making, As people continue whining and complaining. We need saving, Oh, how we need saving. It’s ironic, How our greatest foe is ourselves, So much petty bickering, Chastises the thinking, Until we’re at a point where we can’t do anything. Who can you trust? Your neighbor could be just, Or a sociopath, Hiding behind a mask. Is everyone a friend? Or is everyone a foe? Or is there more nuance? How are we to know? Till it’s too late, And we’re beaten down, Lost everything, To a monster. Highschool’s a mess, No finesse, Filled with stress, And depression. On a quest, To reassess, And to suppress, All unnecessary emotions. Don’t want to sound too forlorn, But is it too much to ask to live in a world, Where everyday doesn’t feel like a chore, Just to push through? So much strife, All through life. Is it right, Or wrong? When does life, Become less about surviving, And more about living, In this crazy time? Seven hours, Seven different subjects, Piled onto a developing mind. Some unnecessary, Others are vital, Few are a waste of time. While everyone discovers their niche, A fight for survival, Some parts are primal, Survival of the fittest they say, It’s a shame that not everyone makes it out, To fight another day. To quote one of my favorite songs, By a man named Alec Benjamin, Titled “Gotta Be A Reason.” “There’s gotta be a reason that I’m here on Earth, Gotta be a reason for the dust and the dirt. Oh, the changing of the seasons never changed my hurt. So what’s it worth, what’s it worth?” I believe that things happen for a reason, Good or bad, Then you have to question, What the reason truly is? This world’s a crazy place, Full of crazy people, And if you’re not careful, They’ll eat you alive, Chew you up, and spit you out, With no regard for your life or your health. We’re dancing in a fire, Of our own making, And no amount of raining, Can drown out the whining and complaining. We need saving, Oh, how we need saving. So there you go, I opened up the vault, And gave you a sample, Of what’s inside my heart. Take it as you’d like, There’s not much more to say, That’s just how I feel, This specific day. I have a feeling of dread, As this year approaches its end. 2025. By mid-March, I’ll be able to drive. God, how time flies…
