"bigots" poems
I woke up, panic attack in full swing. This wasn't right. He wasn't supposed to win. This wasn't supposed to happen! Morning call to my best friend, we're sobbing into each other's phones. We fear. We fear because we're not cis or heterosexual. We fear for our brothers, sisters, and siblings lacking a title. I fear for what will become of the country I live in. I promise I wouldn't stand for my country's flag any more as long as he is our "president". I can't respect someone who is accused of ****** a 13 year old girl. He is no man, he was a joke for the Internet to feed off of, until it became too serious and real. Until the day youths of the LGBTQ+ community woke up terrified for their lives because his Vice President would favor having a dead child rather than a gay child, until the day Muslim women questioned if they should wear their hijab anymore because they feared retaliation for their religion from xenophobes, until the day the the chance of hate crimes seemed like a more likely answer for bigots because someone isn't white, until the day laughs of mockery turned into tears of fright. This monstrosity may only be with us for four years, but a hell of a lot can happen in four years. I don't trust this person to run our country, I don't feel safe. I feel exposed and abandoned by the rights I was promised. I wish to join hands with everyone else who is in my position, and let this sink in until the day in January comes, where he gets his wish, and is finally in control.

I come from New Orleans where the swingers hook up with the singers, and the boxes have a person inside who speak to you through a thick horizontal slot in the door. You come from Minnesota where the most aggressive sentence is “Hi, how are you” and you’ve attended church every Sunday of your life, even though you don’t really believe in god. We came to the West to skate with the surfer junkies. But then the harbors got bombed and we moved out East to see the hipsters and the artists beggin on the streets. We went to the South with the racists and bigots were dying for a good show. We moved up North to escape from the 70s, and with the 80s on the rise we figured we’d best stay away. The 70s were rockin’ with **** and LSD in parks and concerts, and on benches on the streets. The smoke in the air was everywhere, from the slums in Wisconsin to the cities of Dallas. Even the poor were lost in the haze. When the 80s arrived with Rock ‘n’ Roll and techno beats from windowsills upstairs. The music was groovin’ and the ladies were fine. We saw billboards of our names in neon orange lights. The *** was replaced by coke, and the LSD with ****** singing and swinging with delight in our eyes. When the AIDS broke out we were sick in our beds listening to Pink Floyd and Elton John, and still we were singing. The 70s got us high while the 80s made us die We lived through wars in Vietnam, and Korea; we fought back the communists with red ink on our hands. We broke down the door into China and got them to arrive in the present and join the world. Although their chairman sits on a chair of lies he leads them with an angry fist in the air pumping “three cheers for Mao”. “Three cheers for Mao”. When the Soviets launched themselves to the moon we responded with our money and flashed our shiny new machinery in their faces. We marked our territory and claimed triumphantly that “We’re the best”. And we launched our war nukes and pinned them into intimidation. Then the Cubans sought revenge for the death of the Pigs on their Bay. With rifles in hand we stormed the beach and unearthed Castro and his regime. With our beds soaked in blood, and our dreams covered with fog, hand in hand we lay. We recalled the dances in the backs of old Cafes where the passwords were as simple as three quick knocks and two slow ones. We remembered the guns that pierced the heavenly chorus for the negros in the south. And we thought about the music of the 70s and the death in the 80s and I thought about you for a minute more.

☮ ☮ ☮ **Society needs more Social Justice. Humanity needs peaceworkers.** Peace and Social Justice must be promoted aggressively. There are inequities that must be addressed. Power is not equally distributed. Neither are resources or wealth. Neither are poetic gifts or vision equitably distributed. Unearned privilege is rampant. Poetry must confront this global crisis of capitalist exploitation and manipulation. Poetry must speak to the masses. Poetry must radicalize and inform consciousness to new levels of social change. Marginalized citizens must be empowered. All ****** gender-based, racial, religious, age-based, homophobic, xenophobic, and gynophobic bigots must be brought to see in a new way through our poetry. Community building and local empowerment are of the order. Our poetry must be global in scope – yet rooted and grounded in local community empowerment. Selfless acts of service to promote and increase Social Justice are needed. Lives selflessly devoted to establishing social justice are called for. Our poetic lives must be laid on the altar of the dis-enfranchised and unrepresented. We, as consciously aware poets, must advocate and speak out for those who have no voice. We, as poets, must, through stirring words of Social Justice, embody through our radical verses the burning hope of a just and sustainable future. This future must become increasingly collective as formerly marginalized consumers become empowered community-builders  –  through our poetry. As poets of the sustainable future we will empower and inform. Our poetry must collectivize, entitle and enslave. We must speak with ONE VOICE: the voice of change and social justice. Our words will rise with healing in their wings and lift whole communities from despair to radicalized self-awareness in communities filled with strident, intolerant and maniacal practitioners of PEACE & SOCIAL JUSTICE. All poets who do not lay their entire creative and lyrical selves on the altar of struggle to bring CHANGE and SOCIAL JUSTICE will be LIQUIDATED by our own EMPOWERED POETRY. IN THE END WE WILL WRITE A PURE POETRY OF SOCIAL CHANGE, ALL IN CAPS, AND THIS POETRY OF SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EMPOWERMENT WILL BE READ OVER THE GRAVES OF ALL SELL-OUT, CORPORATE, FASCIST, SNITCHING, SELFISH, UNEMPOWERED AND UNEMPOWERING TRAITORS AND ENEMIES OF SOCIAL JUSTICE.  IN THE END THERE WILL BE NO PUNCTUATION OR EVEN WORDS ONLY PURE IMAGES OF CHANGE + VISIONARY COLLABORATION IN SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION/MAYBE SLASH MARKS/OKAY MAYBE EXCLAMATION POINTS TOO BUT ONLY THOSE !

Away with your fictions of flimsy romance, Those tissues of falsehood which Folly has wove; Give me the mild beam of the soul-breathing glance, Or the rapture which dwells on the first kiss of love. Ye rhymers, whose bosoms with fantasy glow, Whose pastoral passions are made for the grove; From what blest inspiration your sonnets would flow, Could you ever have tasted the first kiss of love. If Apollo should e’er his assistance refuse, Or the Nine be dispos’d from your service to rove, Invoke them no more, bid adieu to the Muse, And try the effect, of the first kiss of love. I hate you, ye cold compositions of art, Though prudes may condemn me, and bigots reprove; I court the effusions that spring from the heart, Which throbs, with delight, to the first kiss of love. Your shepherds, your flocks, those fantastical themes, Perhaps may amuse, yet they never can move: Arcadia displays but a region of dreams; What are visions like these, to the first kiss of love? Oh! cease to affirm that man, since his birth, From Adam, till now, has with wretchedness strove; Some portion of Paradise still is on earth, And Eden revives, in the first kiss of love. When age chills the blood, when our pleasures are past— For years fleet away with the wings of the dove— The dearest remembrance will still be the last, Our sweetest memorial, the first kiss of love.

The First Kiss Of Love
Where are those killing fields? They are wherever we see The Master Race ignoring Peace, love and equality. If you’re not white And your state is red, Don’t be surprised If you end up dead. As maybe some one Will beat on your head And demand to know What goes on in your bed. If you are any race But Holy Caucasian Like African or Inuit, Mexican or Asian That includes Islam And all such nations The bigots will hate On every occasion. Where are those killing fields? They are wherever we see The Master Race ignoring Peace, love and equality. In World War Two we Fought against fascism And now we entertain An unholy American schism In which Americans plan With gleeful fanaticism To make every effort To maintain totalitarianism. For over two centuries We have sung of equality And the inalienable rights Of American humanity. We continue to fight now But it has become a calamity Because now we are fighting Within each of our families. Where are those killing fields? They are wherever we see The Master Race ignoring Peace, love and equality.

KILLING FIELDS OF THE USA
A man is only half of what he is; always leaning towards the dim Lacking a flouted need which whorls in the mute within him A man bigots an ideal and will lark it away at the hold of his routed pith A smile is not worthwhile if the smile does not have anything to receive or to give A man is skyless; bound to his back with his dreams fixed on a rapture He gorges upon tasteless feasts gasping for that sup he hungers to recapture He does not know nor recall the times that did once befall Of the lossless suffers and how they ever meant anything at all He will become the most that he can ever endeavour Be the creature he needs to be and whichever Way it may engross him and how it moulds or claims him It will be still him but leaning not so far in the dim He would be a whole man who would give himself wholly Who would be more and only more to her and her solely His full heart would be tendered for it would not be his own If it was still partial of the heart that had since budded and grown A man would be raised and the sky would be without border A bliss amid clouds where the undiscerning muddle finds order There would be a sense to the road an approach to the wander A reason for all a kiss a need to ponder no longer There would be such rise in his depth and a contest behind bit teeth To fight for the purposed kiss to hold her and keep her from grief To offer her all embrace not too tense and not too slack For her to breathe is to breathe; now half new he would never give it back To be back upon his back with eyes busy to the sky His bones broken as her feet glide indifferently by Over his stare among cloud where she impelled his descent He’d lay fallen and broken beaten and bent If Half a man became whole does a whole man not become naught? If he fights for a dearest never afore dreamt dream then what is left to be fought? Was it his minds misgivings that would lead to such a trite giving reliving to doubt? That surfaced more than he knew; the intended whisper instead a floundering shout? Would it have been his heart that threw him from his felicity? Could his relish overwhelm and mutate into potent toxicity? Could it be fact that without thought nor without tact he impelled her? Either overthought or over loved he would have fallen the hardest and he would not rise No he would not rise anymore If there ever was such a man and ever such a she He would have her for as long as that may be Her greatest gift is after saying all this to you Is that after knowing all that you could you would feel the same way too.

In Venus' starlight I see my own dear fright  I see your reflection Seeping into the night In Venus' starlight Hush, the moon opens its ear The stars are shy, yet they shine They'd rather you don't come near In Venus' starlight We're breathing all just the same The stars align their scars And call you by your last name Bigots, believers, bovinity Strike asunder your centrality Denouncers, dreamers, gazerby There's so much more than a wispy sky The starmen await your ears In Venus' starlight Look away to lunar dreams Mineral profit in rocks An efficient plague, it seems In Venus' starlight Forget about notions of greed Explore on behalf of your race If escape is of no need In Venus' starlight The sand takes a dramatic pose The trees, deceitful, the cattle are poisoned The spaceboys are speaking in prose What you don't believe, is always out there Until you have felt its absence like air You've not seen it all, you won't see it then It’s all you've got, so look, fool, look! You’ve read it in a book

Who gives a **** If I live or die? I have become the one forgotten And I have fallen into some peculiar space Now no one remembers the girl who once stood In my place She is changed, she has become something unexpected and unforgiving. Is there a reason to believe in myself anymore? I have been deemed, by many, Unlovable. Perhaps the worst damnation of all Has come from my inner self. But how does the rest of the world see me? My views have been clouded over the years By some unwarranted opinions Of hypocrites and bigots Bullies and ex-boyfriends Daddy. Calling me names to this day Even after some bouts of depression Cutting Eating disorders Even a suicide attempt. Although these are all in the past I still fail to hold myself in high regard. Did they make me hate myself? No, but they had a weighted hand in its development. So who could love a creature like me? A person, or rather, a shell of one, Plagued by habit Submerged in guilt Crippled by a question that has never ceased. Does being forced into a protective armor, Being ridiculed Being unloved Make someone truly Unlovable?

Unlovable
I was raised by a pack of fools Who proclaim Caucasians are the best. And are glad to fight, at the drop of a hint To put the whole matter to the test. They have an entire joke routine And descriptive names they repeat In minimizing and insisting that Their right to decent treatment isn’t real. There are references to some animals And unfunny comments about color. The statements about characteristics Of body and features always go together With a special set of gross anecdotes To cover any kind of non-Christian belief. And the refusal to consider equality As a decent attitude stands in bright relief. Beneath all this horror, not very deep, Lies a sickening river of hate and fear That fails to improve as education is Rejected year after disgusting year. Pointing out the error of their ways Might earn you a punch in the eye But the bigot hangs on to their rage And never gives fellowship a try. The American Bigot claims to be A staunch Christian all the way through Which forces them to hate and cheat And lie as much as Jesus would do. Of course, we know that Jesus was A preacher of love and acceptance But it seems that bigots never quite Made that Jesus’ acquaintance. So, here we can see we need to add Some terms to this kind of individual Whose relationship to peace and love Is at best slight, scant and residual. We also need to append to their titles Of masters of anger fear and prejudice The unhealthy pallor of indecency, Dishonesty, inhumanity and cowardice.

Who else in this inhumane edifice can dance while the suspecting eyes stare at his moistened armpit? Pathetically unknowing music uplifts not just the soul but the intellect. Who else got the fire in imparting? or … did theirs even start a single spark since then? Who else brings out the best in these hopefuls? It’s all the worse and worst that they see. And you think San Pedro would be pleased when you gloat you made all the priests, doctors, and engineers? Woe to you who humiliate the chair by your indolent butts while uttering kindergartenous blabbers you claim to be education! Then you get all you want while tabula rasa remains tabula rasa. And you You seated on the higher chairs! Why don’t you trample down awhile and put your cataracting sight to use before it even brings you to the death of light. Has anyone of you even heard what your god told to Pontius Pilate? Ha! The you-have-no-power-over-me’s have always been impervious to you bigots! And you say to your kin let me handle it. When it is delayed and their impatience grows you see they’ll leave. Did you ever fret about deadlines of bills, of matriculas, of debts? What do you feed to your clan? Feeds? Get Ripley’s here! Oh how divine to utter all the Fs! ©Glenn L. Sentes February 20, 2013

I see the question before a test "Mark your ethnicity" and I think Who the hell gives you the right to care about my skin color? As if I am proud of my ancestors putting the Native peoples on reservations and hissing at innocent school children. What have we become, America? We condemn those that "hop the border" yet we don't recognize that we are the aliens. Bigots that don't step back and marvel at our beautiful mosaic of diversity. Love where you come from, but NEVER mistake victory for degradation.

May I have your attention? This information is for you. Put this in your dictionary, ****** doesn’t mean ‘let’s ***** It might do where you come from But some of us were raised better. We recognize and accept The Constitution to the letter. It guarantees our freedom as Citizens of this fine nation. Nowhere does it say nudists should Be treated with degradation And blocked from freedom to be Who they really are at heart. Denying natural freedoms is Where fascism gets its start. If you have been trained in a way That genitalia is abomination You’re the one who is indecent And needs some repatriation. It’s not like someone naked is Automatically getting it on. That’s just inside your mind, so Only you can make it be gone. A lot of what you are thinking And the very thing you are fear Is not real, it’s irrational This is what you need to hear; Some may not find you **** When they see you naked But those are not nudists. They’re unclothed bigots that fake it. May I have your attention? This information is for you. Put this in your dictionary, ****** doesn’t mean ‘let’s ***** It might do where you come from But some of us were raised better. We recognize and accept The Constitution to the letter

NAKED TRUTH
You can talk about Jesus And be instantly heard. You can call him your Savior And not mean a word. You can shout your hosannas To the people on your street And few will suspect you As having pure clay feet. Holy, holy, Holey Moley, Things have turned for the worse. Hiding behind Jesus Gives our land a ride in a hearse. When you talk about Jesus Please be true to the words. Read what he has said And not what you heard. If you read the Holy Bible And find reason to hate You’ve been led astray And it’s not too late. Holy, holy, Holey Moley, Things have turned for the worse. Hiding behind Jesus Gives our land a ride in a hearse. So far we’ve noticed The words that bigots use Are not from Christians, But are textual abuse In that they are from before Man learned to write So why are bigots so sure They got everything right? Holy, holy, Holey Moley, Things have turned for the worse. Hiding behind Jesus Gives our land a ride in a hearse.

I see the sad color of racism not every other day But every second of the hour, all minutes of the day I see the serious mental and physical damages That this cancer has done throughout the ages And is still doing to our beloved human beings The others treat our People like they are leftover beans On a petty pet's plate. Our people deserve respect Fairness, justice, equality, acknowledgement Compassion, credit and better treatment Our sisters are tired of being left out on the deck Our siblings are often harassed senselessly, persecuted Falsely accused and relentlessly prosecuted At one time, they were hunted and hounded by the system At other time, hindered and haunted by an organized medium Created to attack, destroy, burn, ravage and annihilate To embarrass, marginalize, ridicule, punish and discriminate I see the color of racism, when the police for no apparent reasons Stopped, frisked and handcuffed our homeless, our elderlies Or our law abiding citizens, like it was open seasons To hunt for mule deer or bears, who behave like enemies Of the civilized society. I see the sick color of racism When our people are not hired not for being unqualified But because of their skin color; they're quickly disqualified Dismissed, fired or terminated. I see the monster of cynicism All golly minutes of the day. The arrogance is unparalleled Beyond belief. The racists forgot that God only created one race One human race, one human race, one **** human race. Their false pride, their fake supremacy, their ignorance is unleveled And their audacity is incomparable. I see the colors of racism Not that I want to search for them, not that I want to find them Most of the time, I simply cannot elude, evade or escape them It is not easy to ignore the litanies of bad or negative mannerisms The bigots easily function like virulent or venomous vipers That **** out the emotions, and that destroy all positive characters Our lives, Black lives, like other lives, are sacramental and important And our contributions to the world are significant I see the ugly and surly color of racism not every other day But every second of the hour, every minute of the **** day.

The Color Of Abject Racism
I see the sad color of racism not every other day But every second of the hour, all minutes of the day I see the serious mental and physical damages That this cancer has done throughout the ages And is still doing to our beloved human beings The others treat our People like they are leftover beans On a petty pet's plate. Our people deserve respect Fairness, justice, equality, acknowledgement Compassion, credit and better treatment Our sisters are tired of being left out on the deck Our siblings are often harassed senselessly, persecuted Falsely accused and relentlessly prosecuted At one time, they were hunted and hounded by the system At other time, hindered and haunted by an organized medium Created to attack, destroy, burn, ravage and annihilate To embarrass, marginalize, ridicule, punish and discriminate I see the color of racism, when the police for no apparent reasons Stopped, frisked and handcuffed our homeless, our elderlies Or our law abiding citizens, like it was open seasons To hunt for mule deer or bears, who behave like enemies Of the civilized society. I see the sick color of racism When our people are not hired not for being unqualified But because of their skin color; they're quickly disqualified Dismissed, fired or terminated. I see the monster of cynicism All golly minutes of the day. The arrogance is unparalleled Beyond belief. The racists forgot that God only created one race One human race, one human race, one **** human race. Their false pride, their fake supremacy, their ignorance is unleveled And their audacity is incomparable. I see the colors of racism Not that I want to search for them, not that I want to find them Most of the time, I simply cannot elude, evade or escape them It is not easy to ignore the litanies of bad or negative mannerisms The bigots easily function like virulent or venomous vipers That **** out the emotions, and that destroy all positive characters Our lives, Black lives, like other lives, are sacramental and important And our contributions to the world are significant I see the ugly and surly color of racism not every other day But every second of the hour, every minute of the **** day.

My sweet Austin Texas ecstasy, my beloved Guadalupe you gem of the desert. Your family’s a basket-a-bigots but ******* they drink for miles and how near they are to my heart. This heat’s a drug I swear it. Let's swim in that hole in the bedrock between two rivers. That'd be nice: me and you and mobs of Westlake High sophomores with their blue-raspberry bikinis, a hundred Teen Vogue magazine covers lined up on the grass like a set of bad church pews. Imagine that whitewash of a crowd, you and me so alone in that big static it's better than private. Let’s punch brick, peel back our knuckles and watch’em clot in the sun. **** gauze, we’re goin’ to a punk show. I’m puttin’ on short sleeves, goin’ on parade, gunna flaunt my cigarette burns like a Cadillac: I want those dorks at the Mohawk to look and love me like they love gore. I’m gettin’ my black-eye ribbon tonight. We’re in the Chaos in Tejas show, darlin’, put on Crazy Spirit and bring your 2x4: skinheads ain’t jumpin’ themselves. Let's get medicated, hunny, let's get saved. I love watching Austin bleed out into the sand every dusk. Love the musicians sailing out grimy and frothing over what night brings: what a big sky, Texas, you're almost better in the day all parched ground and azure azure. I love the glass on the high buildings here, they’re like mirrors. This is God’s powder room. This is where God sees himself drugged up and beaming in a beautiful powder room. This is where God goes to remember youth. I love how youth hasn’t gotten you yet. That unassailable capacity for charity, that surging belief in belief shouting out through your temples, I can’t stand how you make me sick of making myself sick. You slapped the ******** outta me so quick I’ve never seen grace move that fast. I thought you'd knock the grapefruit polish right off your nails you hit me so good. What a sight you are, kid, so proper and fit, Christ, you could be therapy: so brunette-in-the-Fall, so full-lipped, unabashed and Aristotelian, frayed like anything but **** well stitched, impeccable at the seams.

"Hey, is that your boyfriend?" "No." "Who are you texting, I bet it's your boyfriend." "No." "So, do you have a boyfriend?" "No" "Hey, take this guy's number. He's really hot, you should totally text him." "NO" "No" "No" "No" I don't have boyfriend. Beacause I have a girlfriend. I love a girl, and yet I change all the she's to he's so no one will ever see the real me. I change my lock screen and delete my texts, so no one can see the love I profess for the girl that I love it's time I confess.....but I can't. I can't tell anyone the way I feel, i should tell everyone because my lies they steal, All of our happiness and the love we provide, all because I keep my love for you inside. Fact: To some people I only need to find the right man. Fact: No man, could ever love me the way that you can. I'm locked in this world, feeling like a liar, while people surround me I watch their actions transpire. You know it's funny, in my own family, it's okay for a girl to be a ***** because it's only the gays we really deplore. I've loved one woman all my life, but compared to my sister who's reached double digets, I'm the one who'll always be blamed by the bigots. Maybe one day, it'll will be different. And our lives will feel anew. For now, to all the girls who love girls, It's okay to be you.

Bigotry: Family Edition.
Late nights spent in the depths of the Gita, Self realization nipping at my boot heals. Reading the lines of a gone, but not forgotten, Gay poet, shedding a tear to his epitaph. Death always sinks its teeth in deep, Deep into the bowels of the subconscious, Twisting and writhing through long Dead emotions, finally expiring its final breath Through the sinus cavity and out the eyes. Breakfast is no longer held in the morning, But far beyond dawn’s reach in the late afternoon, Much needed sleep is pushed off until The last minute. God bless procrastination. God bless my body, soul, consciousness, And mind. God bless those ravaged by war and hate. Trailing after sunset for that one great fix, No escape for the ones within its grasp. Naked we lay in bed, Until the noon sun kisses our cheeks. Naked we lay in our hearts, bodies, Souls, and spirits. Naked is the man who looks himself in the mirror, Only to find a corpse in the hollowed eyes that Sleep deprivation has left him. Overheated and lost in ill-repaired pipes At midnight, Loneliness creeps in like a spy to my senses. The great manifesto has seeped its way into my brain And retired in the retinas of self-loathing. Unforgiving poisons course through the veins. Strobe lights dim the senses, People in slow movements of black and white. Paying our debt, Debt that is owed to our maker From the dawn of time to the ravaged streets Of a morally degraded and ignorant, Politically correct World. Dance with me tonight. Dance in the streets with joy and madness. Dance with tumorous disease. Dance with the leper's cry. Dance with the sodomite’s urge. Dance with the looming shadows. Dance with the bigots and the profiteers. Dance with me, because we are free.

Reading and researching about fiction and facts. You try to clear up our racist past. When a black walked into a eating establishment to eat. You ponder and wonder about those racists wrath. What about the skin of a person that makes fools reacts? Or those that intimidated not stand up to wrong. When we remain quiet we gives stupidity a home. Then you ponder and wonder about the bigots. Maybe, they wasn't afraid of the blacks. But afraid of their own. Many racists don't truly have a happy home. When a Latino illegally or legally comes to America. Who really believes they taking anyone job? Many are working hard at jobs that hard working Americans avoid. We must address our inner self. For within our hearts lies an answer. We all see things from a different view. When judgment day comes. And you must be held accountable before God. And He ask you what wrong did you do? Will you be truthful without offering an excuse? Yes, you can reform your love for the people you hate. But God requires us to do before we standing at the gate. Cause, standing before Him now. Just might be a little late. But we are dealing with the human nature of the flesh. And that alone create most of our trouble.

Human Nature of the Flesh
We live in a world of talkers, Of shouters, of debaters, of know it alls. Listening is a long extinct creature, Unheard of by a species that has devolved to simply wait their turn to talk. Conversations no longer flow like rivers, Instead they are puddles: Started, then abandoned to become bone dry. We live in a world of talkers, All raising their volume to be heard, Shouting that their opinions are fact. No being is exempt from the epidemic, The infectious itch to crank the volume dial right And scream that the other talkers are wrong. We live in a world of talkers, Of screamers, of bigots, of smart alecs In a universe not made for this noise. The voices get louder, the status updates get longer, the protests get deadlier. We live in a world of talkers And soon we will live in a world of mutes.

The Beheading of a ******** Behemoth
It aches when I smile. My State's a disaster. Coal rollers, burnouts and days full of rapturous laughter and "Red Face" down in Lusk in the hot days of Summer--it's boiling; Winter winds burn up your face. I first learned to hate myself in a snowstorm on Dow Street in Sheridan. My best friends are the slow warmth that spreads through the chest, lifts a cold heart, grabs popcorn and pints at the Blacktooth on hundreds of nights. And 500,000 simple souls are a sight. Still they're just half a million salty drops in the ocean-- A quick squall of rain on the Bighorns. They've opened the floodgates for ********* morons, bigots and rednecks and rich, ******* ranchers thinking everyone owes them. And their dollars are deadpan gallows jokes down in Cheyenne. But I've seen cheap smiles 4 miles wide out by Sundance. And I've got good friends that I still carry with me like the potent, sweet, earthy afterburn of good whiskey, or the smell of the lodgepoles in the Spring up in Story. And it's still my home even though it's so empty. It's still my home though it sometimes seems ****** That State's in my bones, I don't think it'll leave me. So please understand that some nights when you find me, you've stumbled across a small splinter chipped off of Wyoming.
