there's ethical idealism: where ethics is discussed... there's ethical relativism: where ethics is practised... there's ethical realism... where ethics is quantified as an improbability; and then there's ethical absolutism, where we supposedly "progress" - in this scenario are the laws of physics actually suspended: whereby oculus qua oculus is replaced - a loss of an eye is "relative" to 10 years in a cage... really?! ethics is ideal, realistic, absolute or relative... we're encouraged to live in "realistic relativism"... never in an absolute realism, since realistic relativism only compares itself to ideal absolutism... and nothing more... ever watched that film secrets in their eyes? you ever wonder what ethical idealism is to the ethnical consequence that can absorb a realistic libra? i can only believe in ethical absolutism, ethical relativism is horrid to me... relativism adorns idealism, absolutism adorns realism... a life sentence is worse than a death sentence, whether justified or not, prison is sadism, but at least ****** is simply ****** a space-time intact, a ****** penalty is not inhumane, nor a ouija board... it's time for time, space for space, the actual punishment comes with the missing adrenaline rush of the unexpected reception of the wielded weapon... either send these jealous plonkers to siberia, or sentence them to death, for you are no more than they are, nay, you are more... you're akin to cats toying, playing a sadistic games with half-mutilated mice... this is why i abhor ethical relativism of the crucifix... hence my belief in ethical absolutism in the paragraph of realism, which is perfected, by being exacted, and never, ever, being leisurely discussed, on a farcical palette with a grimace to boot: ******* a lemon; compensating the horrors within minutes, is never compensated with ordeals that last years... which is why i find the death penalty an act of authentic humanity, and not this quasi-humanitarian act of pardon, ******* hypocrites - i abhor the caged rat more than the rat gladly nibbling on a dead corpse... at least there was passion in the ****** waiting for death penalty is like killing a vermin with poison, disposing them with nonchalantly... the wise maxim states: ledo ferrum sicut id est calidi - strike the iron while it's hot... death is the dawn-broker - a new tomorrow promise - left intact, the fermenting process of ethical dynamism takes over... then again, the supposedly "evolved" preferred moral relativism to moral absolutism, because there was no moral realism to speak of, since morality could only be talked about in ideal terms of the supposedly so, supposedly fashioned via: it ought to never happen to me... and then it might, and then: oops... argument sinks like a wet fatty **** into shambles of keeping up with the presupposed pillar of argument being "impenetrable"; hey, genius, back to the blackboard!

So Putin helps Trump win an election And subsequently feels elated. He is still anticipating How he will be compensated. Who are the ones who cheer and clap As Putin takes a victory lap? Watching the Trump administration Blame and distrust the FBI Also tickles Putin as Trump Makes it a target to vilify. Watch Putin cheer and clap As he takes a victory lap. When Trump says he doesn't believe Our intelligence agents here But eagerly accepts whatever Putin tells him, one thing's clear: Trump is willing to cheer and clap As Putin takes a victory lap. When Russia starts a conspiracy theory And blames Ukraine for election meddling, Many Trumplicans here believe The devious lies that the Kremlin is peddling. How can Americans cheer and clap As Putin takes a victory lap? When Trump speaks with the president Of Ukraine and crudely tries to extort Favors from the Ukrainians And threatens to pull U.S. support, Putin supporters cheer and clap As Putin takes a victory lap. As here we see a chilling loss Of democratic values, we Will ask ourselves whatever happened To hope and opportunity. Who then will cheer and clap As Putin takes a victory lap? -by Bob B (12-12-19)

As Putin Takes a Victory Lap
Creatively wit, artistically gifted - politically inclined to design any archetype of freedom and how a woman should hold her head up high, like the almighty God she is. Able to disfigure the illusions and misconception that the media and other forms of capitalistic control, teach her fellow sisters and Queen. Prove to them that not only are they more than this 'sex symbol', And being blind to this facts, just helps perpetuate the conditioning of self-hate, that you're not light enough or too dark - you're just something that helps the sun shine on their fare skin. And you're ****** is worth nothing more than it was compensated fo' 450 years ago, to birth being that yet again go through the cycle of supremacy. But you say, **** ALL THAT - I'm a Queen, GOD IS SHE. So kiss my fat *** and my appletree. Because me and my sisters sill no longer accept your misogynistic disrespect and immoral, emotional neglect. Your referendums for ****** favors in exchange what is due me, ****** freedom and freedom to do whatever the **** I please. And ever since I saw those defining characteristics in thee, Since, I've always respected you as my Queen.

"Queen"
I am a hoarder You may not see it at first sight. My clothes, pressed and wrinkle-free My shoes, freshly polished Not a single hair misplaced but I am a hoarder My room, though, is spotless Not a book out of place Every little thing in its own little case but I am a hoarder No, I do not collect used up shoes and stack them in a pile nor do I have a hard time throwing out broken down furniture Nothing around me sitting for more than awhile No, I am a special kind of hoarder The lack of mess you see on the outside has been compensated by the mess I sleep in every night I collect dust-filled memories and broken down dreams some, too broken to be recognised I stack expectation upon shattered expectation in a pile too high for me to move without it falling I have tried countless of times to move out the pieces of what used to be plans and pictures of the future, The storybook fairytale love stories have lost its luster, now they sit next to overused ideas I still try to play once in a while, but it seems to get stuck on repeat all the time, and I try to explain that hoarding isn't just on the outside, but something worse when it's within The inability to let go of the past, so I keep them hidden and no one would notice, not one bit what I am I am a hoarder of the worst kind I do not hoard things, but something far much more unkind Pages upon pages of sleepless nights trying to make my burnt up mind and second-hand run down heart to work alright, Cause I know I've tossed too many out on the bed to even try to count how many are still left unread, I am a hoarder compulsive, emotional, restless. and much more than I'm willing to confess.

1180 “Remember me” implored the Thief! Oh Hospitality! My Guest “Today in Paradise” I give thee guaranty. That Courtesy will fair remain When the Delight is Dust With which we cite this mightiest case Of compensated Trust. Of all we are allowed to hope But Affidavit stands That this was due where most we fear Be unexpected Friends.

Remember me implored the Thief!
Can't you feel my screaming heart? I feel all yours and it's unbearable To know everyone's intention may seem ineffable Though my passion is emotion and empathy my art Dwelling silent in a crowded room To the right a pursuit of lust And my left a lack of trust Empty grins with their facade and doom Another item has been stolen My peers in an unknowing uproar I see the culprits guilt pour From his weary eye and coven The ***** swoons the love of an unworthy patron She gazes at me with a tempting question Attempting to construct my envy and affection My will is stronger than that seducing notion The lonely man makes a joking inquisition All the rest see it as a laughable gesture I look with sad eyes to see his slouching posture He wants to die in his pathetic position The muscle bound dunce smacks his lips Glorified as the acrobatic conversationalist Strapped men in shackles and girls can't resist His compensated shortage of yays and yips A quiet smile looks on with a perfect mask Playing pretend with an inglorious burden Faking a life inside of her chaotic garden Of hollow theatrics in which she basks There goes the lad with his flippy hair The little ladies want a picture with the fellow Oh you're so rad the flocking lasses bellow And, you wonder why I don't seem to care?

By the way she walks, the way she talks It has you mesmerized, in a way you can’t even imagine. Her grace, as she touches every inch of that floor has every man in there wanting more, and more, and more. So seductive, her reasoning can’t be comprehended Yet, compensated for her work. Look at her strut, left to right Back and forth, for your eyes are glued because she is astounding. Hypnotizing, to say the least. You wish to describe her but, she fails to compete. For she is your dream girl, your fantasy… and even more.

The days when the blood of a child still flowed in my veins When you couldn't be certain if i had a brain Running helter-skelter,you'd assume i didn't have shelter I had my whole life ahead of me What i was living was a bonus for me I'd have fun now and get serious with God some time in the after Afterall,for decades now it's been one ridiculous story of the rapture or the other I couldn't risk being called "jon" Afterall even the Good Book says to enjoy life in Ecclesiastes The condition stated there served as black polish on my silver shoe-totally not needed Life was a bed of roses for me as i jumped into different beds like one in a hurdle race My skirts could be likened to the length of time the devil can stay in Light But i was still a child,i'd do church in the future,i compensated myself The future came a bit too soon,when i aggressively hugged a moving car one night My fake amnesia disappeared as every word of Ecclesiastes 11:9 echoed loudly like the siren of the ambulance in my head Grace came through for me,pulling mercy along,for my life was spared When every other limb but my right hand was cut off,i knew exactly what to do with it True,i can't stare back at the girl in the mirror today without donating tears,but from today,i put my right hand to work for Yeshua BE INSPIRED!!!

Bury yourself beneath your yesterdays.                       *Trial and error, yet so naive.                        Through your mistakes and                        heartaches, you still                        overcompensate.* Smiling through tears, and tearing through smiles?

And now I’m not so sure. The field I plowed Seems to be dying with the coming freeze. I can’t tell if those sprouts are still growing And my inexperienced eyes can’t tell if there’s frost on their leaves, Or new buds I would ask you, Seeing as you planted the seeds. I only tilled the soil, But your steely gaze is off-putting And I can’t even see you through all this fog. I maimed the ground beneath me, And you showered me with praise. Now it looks to be bouncing back and I don’t know if I want it to. All that hard work for nothing, Or at least it seems that way. I shouldn’t have helped you rake the earth. I shouldn’t have cared for it so much in the first place, But I sold my land to you On good faith that I would be compensated And now I’m not so sure that I will be. I can’t tell if I should’ve watered that land Or if I should keep killing it with my ***

A Farmer's Lament
The first time he kissed me, my friends assured me that I was just another body I dutifully disagreed- "I am special" The second time he kissed me, I learned pretty fast that my friends were right I need not be I am not special I am just A woman When a stranger wrapped his scarf around my chest, His foreign accent fondling me with the words explaining that he would be jealous to see other men looking at me I smiled politely and waited to be dug out by my friends nearby because I am not special I am just The body of a woman Hearing a whistle blown towards my general direction I bow my head, ignore all of the "hey baby"sand "que linda"s Shrinking into myself I hope to disappear from the street because I am not special I am just The body of a woman Walking the city alone, I make sure to act as if nobody is there hoping with futility That maybe if they can not be seen then I will not be seen either Although I do not need to try so hard to become invisible because I am not special I am just The body of a woman Waiting to hear from you and allowing myself to be passive with our fate I rehearse that I am just another kiss, another body for you to call home because I am not special I am just The body of woman These days I do not measure my worth in pounds on the scale because That number is far too large- far too significant Instead I look to the tags inside my pants because they represent how much space I do not take up Exploring the streets I am constantly checking how many shadows are following behind me What turns they're taking and how far behind they are My escape routes are already planned for the inevitable because no matter how significant I truly am, that is always compensated for through the insignificance of my body no- Our bodies, women We are miraculous, glory filled temples It is not our fault that no matter how much fabric we try to hide behind we are always ****** beings that Our accomplishments are that much more revered because we had to overcome our womanhood first that Woman is a necessary adjective to frame titles or context because Without it one will assume a man is being spoken of Each day is a cause for celebration because each sunset marks another day of survival but the morning sunrise alerts us for another day at war

The first time he kissed me, my friends assured me that I was just another body I dutifully disagreed- "I am special" The second time he kissed me, I learned pretty fast that my friends were right I need not be I am not special I am just A woman When a stranger wrapped his scarf around my chest, His foreign accent fondling me with the words explaining that he would be jealous to see other men looking at me I smiled politely and waited to be dug out by my friends nearby because I am not special I am just The body of a woman Hearing a whistle blown towards my general direction I bow my head, ignore all of the "hey baby"sand "que linda"s Shrinking into myself I hope to disappear from the street because I am not special I am just The body of a woman Walking the city alone, I make sure to act as if nobody is there hoping with futility That maybe if they can not be seen then I will not be seen either Although I do not need to try so hard to become invisible because I am not special I am just The body of a woman Waiting to hear from you and allowing myself to be passive with our fate I rehearse that I am just another kiss, another body for you to call home because I am not special I am just The body of woman These days I do not measure my worth in pounds on the scale because That number is far too large- far too significant Instead I look to the tags inside my pants because they represent how much space I do not take up Exploring the streets I am constantly checking how many shadows are following behind me What turns they're taking and how far behind they are My escape routes are already planned for the inevitable because no matter how significant I truly am, that is always compensated for through the insignificance of my body no- Our bodies, women We are miraculous, glory filled temples It is not our fault that no matter how much fabric we try to hide behind we are always ****** beings that Our accomplishments are that much more revered because we had to overcome our womanhood first that Woman is a necessary adjective to frame titles or context because Without it one will assume a man is being spoken of Each day is a cause for celebration because each sunset marks another day of survival but the morning sunrise alerts us for another day at war

Note to the reader: I give any reader permission to give this to their mother. Your mother deserves better than Hallmark. Although you should write your own, I understand not all have the ability. No need to ask or tell me you used this. Thank you for reading this piece I wrote for my mother. To You This isn't for you because this pales in comparison For all the things you do for me, it is embarassing Yet you endure me every sun and moon Despite all the people in this world that thinks I'm a loon But I don't want this to be about me This is for all things you do, selflessly, for free You don't deserve what the world has dealt you Gold and jewels wouldn't be enough for all that you do Maybe one day you won't have so many burdens Or will be properly compensated I can't promise either of those things All I have are these words of gratitude Thank you I wish I could convey this sentiment better I love you more than I could ever explain in this letter Happy Mother's Day, even though you deserve a year or later

Mother's Day 2016
Life, as with all Beings impregnated Hamper these Virtues for those Teens delayed To which we remind; In Growth compensated Handy-Spread Vices from Feelings displayed Perhaps from which - shun such Bloke-Haste Advice Having spoiled these Inner Credentials since What-Not? What-For? Skin that Crumpy Device - Cross-dress Cat's Tannery to Barrows hence: What this means - Sentinels - or Football-Humps Even with Morals does enrich the Need To hear a Lumper; Then post-date with mumps Part-and-Parcel take Learning from a Seed. This, after all, your Labels from Friends fear Fortify your Codes; To Values they hear.

SONNET TRIBUTE PENANCE: WILLIAM DALEY AND BENJAMIN DALEY - SOUL
inspiration derives from the evocation of thought symbolism, at times, can be cataclysm for the mind and yet when one looks to be inspired, until they are weary and tired, when the earth’s ends, can hold no trends, they find themselves incapable, and often times improbable, of complimenting anything, while criticizing everything, and God forbid they stop and think and look at it as a human being, and as their ship begins to sink a blast of thought comes after seeing the black from scribing eroded with the wind rising, off the shores of the brain to a vocabulary train, delivering written ammunition, after being petitioned, and so the gallant author knight, the reader-maiden’s arousing delight, with his holy-tipped sword of ink slays the scroll dragon in a blink lawfully fixated, and well compensated, they sit back relieved, finished with what had them aggrieved until a source of new light, causes rupturing delight!

Writing.
Tears are strange things, Related to the ocean, Salty, wet, leaving tracks from your eyes, To as far as you let them run, Before you wipe them away. But there are many types of tears, Oh, you didn't know? Let me guess, You thought, "Oh a weeping and a crying, Are all the same thing!" I tell you now, There are many types of tears, The tears of a widow, Or those extremely loud ones, From the small, innocent eyes of a babe. From orphan, Crying himself to sleep at night, The adopted child, Confused. From the disappointed mother and father, Knowing their son or daughter, Drowning in ignorance and not even caring. Do they not know their selfishness, Causes such woe from their parents? Or the tears running black with makeup, Down, falling across a broken heart, And falling, Shattered on the ground. As if, those tears some how compensated, His forever, That ended much too soon. And still the tears that fall into the casket, Or into the grass beside the gravestone, Those tears send flooding with them, Memories, Oh the memories, All rush at once from the greiver's eyes. Tears are a strange thing, Don't you know?

Types of Tears
It's never mattered what others thought of me. As I now look back on my life, this was true when I was growing up--in grade school, for example. I had some friends;  I even had my first girlfriend, Virginia Bright, whom I met in the fourth grade. I had a dream about her and the next day I chose her to read after I had. She invited me to her church on Sunday evenings to learn how to square dance. As I continued to grow up, I got elected co-captains and presidents, but I didn't seek them out-- they just seemed to come to me. I remember I used to say hello to--befriend--classmates who were not popular, most likely because they were of a different race than most of us; I didn't even think about our superficial differences--I just liked them. That's the way it's been my whole life. Perhaps over the decades I grew to understand that bigots, racists, were the way they were because as they were growing up, they never were loved enough, if at all, and as a result, suffered great emotional pain, pain so great they un- consciously tried to repress it, but could not, so they unconsciously compensated for their lack of being loved by accruing megawealth, achieving power, not to empower others, but to oppress them, and/or by gaining fleeting fame. I feel sorry for these people. Everyone needs to be loved. TOD HOWARD HAWKS

IT'S NEVER MATTERED WHAT OTHERS THOUGHT OF ME
All the cuts and the scrapes, The bumps and the crashes where our hip bones multiply and divide the line between our movement, All the hair held clasped in slippery fingers, Pulled back, Lips tipped pink towards the ceiling, Balance reeling, All the floating rhythms that have penetrated our fantasy, Compensated for our feelings. It wasn't enough. Not that the body, The face, Or the soul, The hair or the lashes, The mind or the skin. No, you said it wan't that, Never more than a remorseful fact. Only for the broken conscience, The loves that existed forever apart, Could then both twist together in heart. But then you said... No. And I looked down at my hands and I saw the callouses, The etched pattern of pent up emotion that I spent so much time carving with a rusty bullet, And my ears believed you, But my mind did not. All the pretend kisses that tempted my cheeks and pulled at my ripcords, Turned on my motor, Flipped on my switch, They sank into the mud, And the hands that brushed my  forehead to wipe away the sweat began to fall to pieces and smash against the tiled floor of the bathroom where you first said you loved me With that voice of yours, That god awfully beautiful voice, Where you first put that red lipstick on and bound your mind with a halo of Lust Just so you could summon the courage to stand up there in front of those people and let them eat your words with their ears. And all I wanted to do was eat your lips with my eyes. I was so close, I could taste the perfume on your neck And I couldn't take it anymore, so I reached out to touch But... Then you said no. And all the times I said that I was there, When I really wasn't, When I took off my jacket and the steam rose off my skin to wrap your arms in ghostly tendrils, When I took that blade and let my blood just so when you'd crashed too hard and burned too much you could keep your mouth from Cracking And Falling apart. I thought I did what I was supposed to do, And still you said... No. But it wasn't you, was it?

I don't know where this life is to take me. I'm still right here Not nearly always on the move like I used to be. I'm still right here I was driven by thrills and curiosity. It feels like I'm starting to veer Now I wake due to necessity. Losing sight on things as if it's all become unclear Had a very meaningful talk with family, not blood-related. Boats often float the same We both feel the need to branch out, and won't be compensated. This life is a game Attitudes need to see if they're approved by the mirror. Find out who's to blame Otherwise you can preach until there's no one left to hear. There are two kinds of fame

The road I'd rather not travel
They think, that I'm like    a disowned  feline... Throwing me out first floor                     windows.. Do I land on my feet...…                No I land on my ribs, on my head, only scrapes.. But my ribs are broken like              a chess board... one wrong move and its check mate.. I'm dying where I lie...              choking on the blood of my              **** you world moves... But I landed on my wrist... They'll never catch my broken middle finger,    broken slang.        But they knew what a hand held with another                                                       meant.. a mangled **** you as I survived another day. I came back like a bee looking to sting,                      but the ones who fell out there nest were stung by another not me.. I'll walk another day.. been stung a few times..              but I learnt my lesson... Don't mess with the nest unless you                 want to be in anaphylactic shock of some random fools words trying to prove,                                some insecurity for an abandoned father figure, that's compensated by a bullet,                           and a promise of we got your back.

First Floor, Check Mate....
i always aimed at returning Nietzsche's ping-pong serve of poet-philosopher, as philosopher-poet... well, you know, any vanity project will do these days, given our current celebrity culture... there's nothing celebratory about it, so my little festivity of hope in establishing a self-style vocabulary might be too much for Gucci... but you got to try and whiff up a tornado of absinthe sweeties in licorice black (lee ko reesh). there's only one argument i cling on to, it is theological, i'm biased toward the theological argument always, because i've seen the ontological argument become desecrated by oncology - every theologian argues the same: there's a god, because, to be frank, whatever ontology provides us, it leaves us more bewildered than anything: how we expressed our freedom will never be compensated in terms of how others expressed theirs... so even Kant said: my ontology is based on god... so his contemporaries said: my theology is based on no god...     which is why Kant professed a theology   without an ontology, and his contemporaries professed an ontology without a theology - or as the other, in existentialist terms might have suggested: timing - but no one desires a godly status, so even his promenade timing made affinities with serfs begging for a watch rather than watching their shadows dwarf at noon...                                             this is called translating rhyme into philosophy, or philosophical rhyming... words of close proximity are prime exponents, given the spelling, i.e. the suffix - but which are totally antonymous - they look so alike, but then thinking provides disparity of intention, not so lazily done with red                   and dead...                                               head        and Pb...                                      is it?
