"boardrooms" poems
Every time people start to rise up, a whole buncha problematic mess gets thrown around regarding VIOLENCE. So, what is "violence" really?... It's the use of force. Plain and simple. What makes folks uncomfortable (who are otherwise comfortable in this system) is that UPRISING IS A SOMETIMES VIOLENT (read: forceful) REACTION TO SYSTEMATIC VIOLENCE: Yes, just like the Hunger Games... Thus, there are many types of violence... The fact that we are paying taxes that are funding the genocide and ****** of people of color (here and abroad) is violence. People with guns (former slave patrols and overseers, now cops) who come from outside our community and treat our folks as criminals on the daily is violence. Capitalism, i.e. wage/property/ecology-based exploitation in the name of profit is violence. The fact that LA County spends more $$ than anywhere in the world on prisons and police is violence. The fact that the US locks up more of its own people than any other country on record is violence. US aiding/funding the genocide of Palestinians at the hands of Israel is genocidal violence. From Congress, to the boardrooms, to the classrooms, from the gaze, to the unwanted touching, to the **** to the pay, Patriarchy everyday, is violence. A few people jacking some **** at Walmart or breaking a window is really minimal violence in comparison. A couple people throwing **** at armed cops is not serious violence. The idea of owning property that other must rent to live is violent. Systemic, chronic, global insecurity in the form of material poverty is violence. Wage slavery is violence. Gentrification is violence. The War On Youth, i.e. the School-to-Prison pipeline, and, thus the War-on-Drugs with its attending 76% recidivism rate in the prison-industrial complex, whose populations are disproportionately black males, is violence. The fact that people can't go to the doctor and dentist, or eat food every day is violence. Deportations are violence. Homophobia is violence. The world's largest global military that vaporizes people without due process in dozens of countries violating their biophysical and national sovereignty is violence. The United States government sanctioning the ****** of non-white, but especially Muslim bodies across the world... is violence. So, when you condemn violence, do you mean resistance? Because there is a whole lot of violence you should be condemning instead. Adapted from Emilio Lacques-Zapien

Snorers all scattered world-wide in offices and homes in boardrooms and bedrooms; O Snorers all loud and clear low and shrill - listen ye to the loud wake-up call as from Rip Van Winkle's Snore stand up united and drown the howl of protests against snoring that is surely no less divine than the Chorus of Angels in Heaven - for the great God who made the Aurora no doubt also conceived of the Divine Snore! and so, stand up, ye sonorous Snorers! unite! I call unto ye! unite against the detractors and the critics and the complainants and those of low culture who cannot lie still and listen to Snoring as one rightly would at a concert hall listening to the delightful play of a quartet of violins O how long will you take it lying down, ye blessed Snorers of the World? let the world know the first divine music was indeed the Snore; and the very height of human communication is the unabashed snore for all other modes of communication lead to mis-communication but the language of the snore is always exact and crisp! the message of the Snore always precise! the meaning always loud and clear! and the very height of the snore (let us declare to the world) is the couple in bed snoring away together beside each other making such divine music making love with the rolling thunder of snores so that one might say: *do we have a couple of wild boars copulating in the next room?* stand up, O Snorers of the World - and defy the mockers and those who seek divorce on grounds of insufferable Snoring; stand up against those who sue for loss of sleep from friendly, neighborly Snorers; stand up now against these losers, these whingeing nags uncouth and untutored in the mysteries of the art of the Snore! stand up and with one loud blast of a universal Snore, with one melodious Snore let us drown their dissenting voices, their unprovoked cacophonous complaints! stand up, Snorers young and old! unite, Snorers black, white and gold! defy the world! O ye Snorers of quite nights and of lazy days: let us overwhelm the world with the pleasing symphony of Snores; let us bless the ears of the world with the dulcet streams of varied notes and arias! stand up! unite! - O much-maligned Snorers of the World! with one voice raised in a triumphant Snore let us declare: *No longer will we be silent! Our voices will be heard!*

I demand to make my choices. We are here to raise our voices. These irreversible changes are locking us in cages; These are real, life-or-death issues. This is no show, and these lives are no Broadway stages. Let's talk about decisions; Let's put aside biased visions. Let’s talk about who makes these decisions; I’m looking at you, old white dudes in boardrooms. Last time you took a class in sex-ed, Gatsby and Daisy were just about this close to being bride and groom. Let's talk about consent; Let's use this space to vent. Let’s talk about who has the right to judge; I’m looking at you, anti-abortion crusaders. Feeling threatened by strong women and their placards and posters, Like they’ve got pistols in their uterine holsters, Like they’re all daughters of the dark forces of Darth Vader. Why do we insist on going to war with each other? More importantly, Why does our ****** education, The root of this problem, The rotten core of this issue - Why does our ****** education **** so much? Why do we talk about choice for a woman instead of the choice of men to respect a woman in the first place? Why are we still debating? Grown men telling women to listen, It's absolutely infuriating! Let's fight for rights and quit the hating. Women are resorting to desperate measures, Whilst men walk away with fulfilled pleasures. I adopt this tone gravely; Women are jeopardising their safety, daily. Is a living woman worth less than an unborn baby?

Sitting Shiva in a Yarmulke is not, for me, routine. Still it was right that I should grieve for a man I’d never seen. A man who loved his children and was devoted to his wife. A man who worked long hours and was happy in his life. A man active in his temple, One who coached the little league. A man like any other- If you pricked him he would bleed. He wore his nation’s uniform when called in time of war. And when the guns were set aside He ran his little store. There may be some million like him Yet not so many as before Men who truly loved this country and were respecting of its laws. A strong and vibrant middle class is what our country needs Not Parks filled with rootless losers and boardrooms manned by thieves.

Expect no pity as you fall and fall Weighed down by the medals you gave yourselves Through your closed loops of self-congratulation In your officers’ clubs and private planes You led us from the sky and from the rear Secure in air-conditioned bunkers sealed Against pollution by heat and dust and rot And the uncollected bodies of the dead Expect no pity as you fall and fall Weighed down by your accumulated wealth Through your closed loops of self-congratulation In boardrooms and governments and private planes You sacrificed us for your resumes - You’re out of single-malt; now go away

I grew up chaotically in dichotomy, my hands in between the walls carrying bi-polarities “cradles! babies that squeal for fear of strangers, mothers, where are the mothers, where is the family, have you disappeared in McDonalds and KFC’s?” Flashing Christmas lights throbbing in my left eye, so colourful I don’t know directionality, temporality burning me up losing me up, inside these sights I feel a, a maze in again, and up again…like a ****** on a horse- “there are aliens outside!!” though, on the other side just air in my right eye. I see air, extending. all the gentle blue hum of the air. it goes, breathes, in and out. Lalala, mmmmmmmm It's so satisfying man. Tell everyone about it. While everyone sleeps, I creep into the boardrooms, where they hold their secret meetings. There are certain syndicates in charge of things like this; devising plans, scratching heads, drawing charts, painting on brains, with paint by numbers. But go on, (shuffle awkwardly), for i am no emasculated lion courageous in defeat, i am merely a rose, left lying on city streets.

Welcome to the adult world! Feel a clumsy failing fool. Living is a tricky game, Harder than they tell at school. Every day beyond your means: Hide it from the public view. All around must never guess What it is they're hiding too. Conquer bedrooms, conquer boardrooms, Build your mountain to the sky. Have a résumé to die for: When you get it, then you die. Yet the children play in dirt, Heedless of a pointless star: "Never ask us what we'll be: Know that we already are."

Wear your corset, cover your hair remember to be prim On your doorstep standing there Is your master, yes, it's him We reared you well in chastity and quiet What lovely piano you play! We smothered passion that dwells in the ****** diet and kept the intellect at bay But now you **** us with your wiles of independent hue You, the rebel mare! Now you scandalize us with your brazen truths on t.v burning bras and underwear And then to think you'd walk into our boardrooms once filled with burgundy and smoke Can't you see you push the brink of the fires churning fumes on which now we choke? Who let you into the books? Who gave you a say in a world that belongs to men? Knowledge is no bubbling brook beside which you play Remember your master- Him! In birth, we raised you by the cross In childhood, we saw you cry In adulthood, we saw you shake if off and from our wisdom fly We didn't want you there with us in the muck and the mire the dirt and the grime We wanted you spared from the damnation and fires and a reality now sublime Can't you see that we only wanted you to remain pure?

Locked up in the stocks and they're all laughing their socks off at me. Soon I will be free unlike those other poor souls who are swinging in the morning breeze up on the freshly painted gallows made especially so more could see the face of death, what they could be. Come and watch the matinee where three more souls will swing today. A party atmosphere a dead man here or there it's like a summer fayre with jugglers and a clown and 'Hey presto' magic one more soul drops down to meet his fate. Lately I have noticed that the police are getting tougher and the rough and ready treatment meted out to those who fall foul of the local law enforcement has become a talking point in boardrooms by the Admiralty Lords who were often heard to cry when in their younger day 'hang them high,hang them high make those malefactors pay. It's a sin you try to live and all these people want to give you is some grief you can't get by on the sly and if you try to you will die as so many have found out to their cost I do not doubt that ii could happen here to me I could be up there swinging free. So today I'm in the stocks you can laugh your socks off laugh your heads off if you please but I'm not swinging in the breeze just yet.

I think Kenyan politics like love is blind And we are just visually impaired beggars Waiting to be given crumbs and the leftovers As the true 'nation owners' Share the bigger pie, with greed and 'honor' I get sick every time i get to watch this sequel With too much unending repetition Impersonation Individualization With despots ruling the nation. We've totally failed as a people Always ready to criticize But never determined to see through Always ready to fight When it's us with huge dues Protecting our own When it's them that get huge!

*To vote i will not*
I think Kenyan politics like love is blind And we are just visually impaired beggars Waiting to be given crumbs and the leftovers As the true 'nation owners' Share the bigger pie, with greed and 'honor' I get sick every time i get to watch this sequel With too much unending repetition Impersonation Individualization With despots ruling the nation. We've totally failed as a people Always ready to criticize But never determined to see through Always ready to fight When it's us with huge dues Protecting our own When it's them that get huge! Someone told me to vote to eradicate The rot That through my vote Maybe there will be change in the lot And the true will get afloat But I'll have to disappoint, In a system this rogue To vote i will not! No need to confront Let me express the systems faults. Politicians fighting for supremacy The bigwigs protecting there lame legacy Whilst people in the north are hunger stricken And the system blames the weather for its wickedness Corruption levels are beyond explanations With money for development disappearing in the boardrooms Leaving unemployed Youths struggling to bet on their livelihoods In a system this rogue To vote i will note When the main agenda in Kenyan shows Is politics And who will get to be the kingpin of all When the Chinese are taking over our plots Leaving Kenyans at their mercies with no hope When it's huge loans that are borrowed But no track record or development to show And that's just a piece Of the iceberg that we've crushed in Breaking the system to bits The system is sick But again we are blind And not even struggling to see I wonder what miracles we'll need Just to put the system to speed But still In a system so rogue To vote i will not!

We laugh and quite hysterically as they ****** me and by me we mean you. Chrystallised calamity trapped in amber permanently, an eternity of diffused light. And it's the cutting edge that cuts us clean, the torso of the queen told well the story wherein the demons dwell. The modern mobsters. They're selling people on the market stalls with popcorn mix and aniseed ***** and dontya know people sell very well as ornaments to decorate the boardrooms of bored business men. Swift was wrong, we're the midgets and the giants were with us all along it's just we couldn't see them with our eyes lashed to the treadmill. By any stretch a longer stretch of my imagination would get me two to ten in the pen' upstate, but they clap me in irons and throw away the key and that screws me for everything. There's nothing quite like a memorial to remind you we should all be thankful for something.

It seems impossible to dream of them within my dreams it always seems that I am watching from the corners of their eyes and they are dreaming deeply, otherwise then it is so. Impossible, but in the answer to my dreams it seems the question is not tied by one, Oh tired one am I, Yes, ever on the cusp the question why will always rest or rear its ugly head, And more impossible to go by rite or rote into these darkened corridors, I note the writings on the balconies which look like jumbled histories and then through well lit doorways into boardrooms where consultants sit. In breaking bread I see the crumbs, I see the drunkards and the tumbleweed that rumbles through this wakefulness. Thus the end and I will starve or halve this half led life and share a quarter, given that it's not very much I shall dream a banquet, that's a little touch of magic.

Wobbly at first, knees bruised with dreams, Training wheels and a trembling heart, She carried on with cheers and support from her father. She fell. …And got up again. She studied harder than before. But her fire was tamed — to fit into their world. Love came — sweet and silly. Butterflies and late-night texts. Then heartbreak, Where no one asked why she hurt — only what she did wrong. She kept riding — Into boardrooms and deadlines. Career — Not a ladder, but a minefield. “Too emotional,” they said. “Too ambitious,” they whispered. She forgot her mother’s hands, calloused from carrying her dreams. She didn’t always say thank you. Not until she became her. She offered help — And they said, “She’s too involved.” “She’s desperate.” “She’s just… too much.” Her face, bright as morning, Was called arrogance by the insecure. Her silence — indifference. Her beauty — a mask, they said. Still she rides. Her bicycle weathered — but she kept her hands steady.
