"cryptogram" poems
I sleep in pitch black rooms and wait for candles to light themselves Thoughts the same shade of dark. Counting sheep as they hop into slaughter houses of gluttonous, avaricious men who trade their humanity for pocket change. While satans minions work with circumspectivness to reap what their slave-like bourgeois have sewn living with a motto of Yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery In the Meantime fribble prodigal sons of the privileged ponder their inheritance While the daughter of a currier burns her fathers letters because something's are best left unknown and the candles remain unlit. But beauteous animals still roam free in the wild, little kids still smile. There's hope in the heart of each child. Sitting in seclusion and coming to Ambiguous conclusions is always productive So When did the key to success become failure? when wasn't it?

Subliminal cryptogram
Independence and autonomy are subjugated by the transnational bourgeoise; and a colorful Mediterranean cuisine is not dissimilar to the Machiavellian arrays of contemporary propaganda. Therein lurks a traumatic bonding from the origins of Stockholm, which is characterised by a cryptogram of questionable empathy. It truly is a lucrative business, oh hamster on the wheel of dissociative conformity. Have a consultation appointment with Salvatore Lucania of La Cosa Nostra. We are boiling in a fascinating and central superintendence. Therefore, my weary and ego-dystonic figment of contemporary virtual relationship: Do not express allegiance to your captor.

Political States of Trance
steeply angled eyes supported by hollow cheeks stare from a semi-circular mirror with a dark consequence of outrage like a constricted sunrise that appears to float a pictorial cryptogram defying a resisted notation of gravity they are eyes that momentarily fascinate then frighten for you can see yourself falling through a deep hole in their vision causing a complete dissociation of identity steeply angled eyes are watching, watching, watching.....................

Steeply Angled Eyes
Distance, the sole aim,  Far away from anyone she ever knew Some sugar, some spice Some difference Something erratic and unpredictable Unseen to her eyes, unheard of to her ears, A newness, to contrast the Monotony that is routine. Perhaps a thrill of people actually Missing her presence, Couple with an anonymity, An emancipation from having to  Conform To the rules of where she belonged. The runaway face of a vagabond, Searching, searching for somewhere To trash the label that People had already  plastered to her identity. Masked under a smile, Prepared to be whoever she wanted  To be; Finally fulfilling dreams  That were otherwise shackled  By chains of her own ipseity,  By words she never said But were quoted as hers anyways. The runaway face of a stranger now, Tasting tears that those who loved her Would shed in her memory. She revelled in this finality, This realisation that hit them now That she was gone. As though a hidden price tag had been revealed  As though a number had just been scanned from a  Barcode, For her real worth hadn’t been comprehended By those who saw the bars of the cryptogram As mere lines Of varying width (moods), Wholly existing amidst  The conventional, yet strangely unattainable   Black and white That was her, and her alone, But had now morphed As distinct colours of a  Different kind of light into The runaway face of a lone victor.

Runaway
I'm constantly checking Snapchat and Instagram, and instantly decoding your posts like a cryptogram. In a millisecond my brain goes from using a gig of ram, to oozing out ten petabytes, like God **** It won't slow down and I'm trying to stay chill, so I gotta down another bottle of pills. This also helps with the hunger that I'm trying to fill, going from starved, to full, to just feeling ill. Nauseating dizzying feeling and I'm flustered, populating my stomach with crackers dipped in mustard, I don't like food, but I've started to wonder why my ribs hurt, might be the undying hunger. I can't pull my eyes away from it as I slit upon my thighs and think of a beautiful ***** I'll never get, so I get lost in distractions to forget her. I've come to accept that this is the truth as I accept the cold and give her my sweater. Attempted controlled suicide at a park plus the letter. If she goes in for anything then I guess I will let her. But every time she touches me it lights a fuse that only activates when she's not around, only clutches me closely when there's nobody else in the vicinity inbound making me feel deader.

We’re all born in the same place Ourselves And we all run the same race To hell Born into a world already turning My feet start urgently burning Before my brain begins churning I ignore what I’m learning For my movement yearning Now that I’m of a reactionary fashion It’s time for social interaction I’m told to pick a faction That’ll be my infallible bastion I’ll defend with blind passion My need to know more Brought the conquistador Who had the keys to my door With no reason implored He beat me to the floor He comes from society To check my propriety Conquering through anxiety Or straight up fighting me Until the pain starts piling From his constant defiling I’ve made a million mistakes So I don’t deserve any breaks But all he does is take Everything at stake My life he shakes To make me fake Through the storm He screams conform Until my soul is torn After I adorn His demon horns I adopted his impersonal sensation So to avoid my temptations I commit self immolation For the hellish integration Of society’s placation But he keeps demanding more He keeps demanding war And me to be ****** Until I’m not sure If I can be cured Or even endure When they obscure The path of the pure With their malice lure The safety of sedating Keeps me from hating So life becomes waiting Avoiding their blading And incision trading Which is why I’m delaying And the conquistador is staying I can’t wake up After I ate up The tryptophan Cryptogram Sold to man Turning ****** On the lamb From the sham Of Uncle Sam

Do I capitalize the g in God? I guess my answer is self evident I don't think I need to dot my i's To receive God's love But he also wants me to mind my p's and q's So I can know His word And understand His scripture But society's an encryptor Feeding me tryptophan Until this cryptogram Leaves me ****** By turning the Bible into a crossword puzzle My only chance to prosper is muddled
