We entered the holy city with palm branches to welcome Parading in as they sang 'Hosanna!' They honored Him as if He were their king As if He had come to set them free Oh how right they were, the Promised King, come to set His people free We shared in communion with the Lord and the betrayer On the eve of the darkest day in history Hate brewed at one end of that table While love stirred peacefully on the other And all of us living in blissful ignorance in between We celebrated the passover with our master And we prayed that The Lord would not pass over us again That instead He would stoop down to us and save us But we denied Him in His hour of need We slept soundly as He was betrayed by us Like a lamb led to the slaughter, He gave His life for another They beat Him within inches of His divine life They cast lots for his garments, and spit on His bloodied face No longer did they yell 'Hosanna!' to welcome their king, But they yelled 'crucify him!' to condemn their Divine Lord They drove nails into his frail hands He cried out to heaven asking why The Lord had forsaken Him He declared in defiance ‘It is finished’ and He passed on to death They threw a sword into his swollen side His holy blood and holy water spilled to sanctify the earth onto which it fell So silly they were, they thought that they could **** God That they really believed they could depose the Lord of all with mere nails But the sky darkened, and heaven turned away as to not see her Lord die The earth shook and the world changed Suddenly all knew 'surely this man was the Son of God' The once bright and beautiful sky turned suddenly dark The earth shook violently in disapproval that her creator lay dead on her face The warm humid air turned suddenly bitterly cold and dry For the promised Messiah had been defeated Death itself had victory over the world, and the world knew it was so There, on the cross, lay the Life of the World, dead The Light of the World had been snuffed out, and the world left in darkness The hope of all mankind suddenly vanished The steady hand holding the world wavered in mourning And darkness covered the seemingly God-forsaken earth Who are we at the foot of the cross that stood silently? We stood by and watched the promised Messiah be taken away and killed We reap what we sew, and will now live out our days in darkness Without hope we shall suffer for all time, a punishment fit for our crime We crucified the Messiah, we gave the Lord to death, we killed God For three days the sun did not rise For three days the world swayed unstable The demons danced in the darkness Hell was victorious Because for three days, God lay dead in a tomb.

Darkness: A Good Friday Poem

i’ve long dreamt of black flags in the streets tonight i marched beneath the shadow of their wings shoulder-to-shoulder in hope and solidarity an anarchist professor with a climate change activist an independent journalist and one of my students as mid-November winds tugged at her pink-and-brunette hair she lifted a hand-drawn sign of a gigantic sneaker smashing a **** and i felt for not the first time an enormous sense of pride how humbling to at once inspire and be inspired by an eighteen-year-old punk and artist who asked to borrow The Moral Imperative of Revolt two scant months ago then took to the streets to oppose and depose a twisted fascist virtuoso for two whole hours we hundreds owned the streets we marched down Rosalind Central and Orange Avenue as protest slogans rang angelic we raised hell and found heaven in liberty equality and solidarity but then the pigs closed in cordoned to Lake Eola to scream acquiescent rhetoric at the fish sleeping blissful in their innocence beneath the jet black surface a half-dozen cops in riot gear astride horses loomed ominous before us backlit by the headlights of the aggravated motorists our march had forestalled as the people abandoned the streets we’d won so easily i felt my chest wilt beneath the weight of forsaken opportunity my eyes scanned the remaining crowd four stood strong rooted to the concrete by the world's weight anchored by conviction an anarchist professor an independent journalist a climate change activist and a freshman college student i heard the professor whisper to his student i heard him say she'd put herself in harm’s way that they'd lost the day when the marchers turned their backs and walked away but she didn’t flinch or move an inch she stood silent and vigilant shoulder-to-shoulder chin held almost as high as her Nazi-smashing protest sign and her matching middle finger and in that moment i could’ve died smiling

*My nature, once pleaded for one of these darling ones! The amazing hope only found in the fair women down here. A strength found only in the wilderness having the ability To drink bourbon until dawn being absolutely naughty And then the next morning to show you how to properly Use a fork and knife while signing thank you cards. To be raised up to all the heights any man could bear: Has my God ordained my fate to be southern reborn? Perhaps he has indeed given this soul another turn. Gullied without a patriot's name, have I lost my sense? Yet to be treated as if I were by law a prince. Am I so brave or just this Belle’s tool? I never saw a patriot yet that wasn’t a fool. Here comes she now with religion and the laws Should I be Absalom or should I be David's cause? But I am the instructor, or have I lost my place? She has taken me over with so much grace. Good heavens, how fast must a patriot pant! She stole me away by saying “A saint I ain’t.” Pulling off my shoes as she pulls me down from my throne I cross my eyes as I moan and I groan. A kingly battle within the sweetest of torments, Was their ever a prerequisite or my consent? The look in her eyes – flames, fire and fury – nothing to lose. Inferring this infernal night is ours to depose; Oh God it’s true she’s petitioned me to approve her by choice, But are not my hands still powered by my voice? So my pious subjects, for my safety please pray. I do think this Belle has taken all my will away.*

the words spilled out in a rush. they dove from the tip of my tongue before i could bite them back: i told a friend today that i would die for this. i have no sons or daughters, no cats or dogs, not even a fish to provide for. if i could place my body on the line to depose this fatuous fascist, then i was obligated to mount a resistance. and i almost caught myself by surprise— my empathy congealed to galvanize and, in an instant, catalyzed conviction. the tears of a student wearing a hijab, frightened to show her face outside, crystallized in my mind like a mirror, with the phrase, "the least of these" scrawled upon its surface. the shouts of a student hoisting a hand-drawn protest sign, almost as high as her middle finger, set my heart to aching with pride as we stared down riot cops on mounted horseback. she stood firm and did not falter. and though i choked back tears when i said that i would lay my life down for a stranger, at least i can say my voice did not falter.

Now know I, Parting is such sweet sorrow No more, twixt moon and stars, that face to behold, Goodnight, Goodnight, til it be morrow, Fair smile that banisheed dark and cold, Soft words no longer shall indulge my laboured mind Nor calm this heart of captive bird, Away with thy witchcraft, my soul to unbind Much worse, it be done, nay utter a word Mind must such fancies ****** ‘neath night skies And yet; No more can I your ghost depose, Than with mine own hand, pluck out mine eyes, And by such act, forget a rose No longer graced with thee to stroll, But return to toil, my penance, my toll.

I sit here staring at this blank page, Gathering my thoughts Like drawing motionless water droplets together On a glass pane until they flow as a single stream. In the silence ensured by my noise cancelling headphones I hear my heart manifest the thrill of a novel idea. And I wonder why I avoid the word ‘heart’ in my poetry. To me it is an ***** too base in its functions To be declared the seat of emotions profound. I may depose it from the seat of the feelings, But not as an executor of their will. For the effect is always more certain Unless I want to lose myself in The infinite regression to The original cause.

.how many coordinates does it take to draw a straight line? last time i heard: two... so why even bother with two spells of being a politician in office... why not extend the tenure to 8 years to begin with and scrap the 2nd cycle of elections? the "people's will" wouldn't require a 2nd election cycle to elect a politician... given that a politician can be given a 2nd "referendum", but the people, with their iron will, are not entitled to collectively express the plethora of doubt? good! and upon with each and with each upon every other: their own version of an autocrat. so...    why would you have a mid-term vote in America?! what's the point?!        why have a mid-term vote?!                  people are either too tired to give a **** or too engrossed to mind: either... i don't need some pompous diacritical exfoliation from the south of England, to mind whether it's a politician or a journalist talking... fuck's sake...    Lord Andrew Adonis sounds less pompous than Peter Hitchens! so... why have a mid-term vote?!   what's the point?! you voted blond-quiffie in power... so... the mid-term vote could depose him?!        no... i'm too dumb and without much of a libido to give a **** about the politics of these people... and... i'm lacking the fetish for lying.

back then, when communism was heralded on the fifth of may to glorify work, you had old people dump coffee beans into the river because no one told them what to do with it, you had unselfish atheism back then, you were encapsulated as a species, fully noble to be categorised as **** sapiens; but now you're not; we're all artists now, spare time writing wonders, full time displaying unmade beds in former power-stations of vast spaces... i guess in order to provoke thought... after all, congested spaces breed claustrophobia, a display in an economised space like that is no comparison to a large open space where you sort of have to attract thinking about the most debased work imaginable to be considered in the realm of being, a qualifiable work of "art"... well, what do you expect, qualifying an unmade bed as art will give you insight into newtonian causality (i know, einstein muddled it a bit): to qualify an unmade bed as art akin to the statue of david will eventually quantify an expression of art in another medium exponentially, namely poetry; modern visual art is the reason why we have an exponential increase in poetic output - if the beauty in visual art is missing or is abstract or just plain ugly, people will turn to the 26 signatures to simply un-imagine what's being plated, by the time we return to the grander aesthetics... well, by the time anything is accomplished, people will have to re-imagine the body by salvaging it from *********** and poetry will have to depose what advertising does to the phonetic units, with so many fonts and copyright trademarks whatever.

Don’t expect evil men to do good things, They are sick and twisted and addicted To the bastardy they do. It’s up to you. You must block them and defrock them; Throw them out of your political party Give a hardy heave ** so they know, Because any word but ‘no’ means yes, And to them even no can mean okay If their party pays enough money today So they can say whatever they want They’ll flaunt lies as the people’s choice Unless you give voice to their crime. They will repeat it each and every time. Ride them out of town on a rail if need be, Their seedy behavior will justify it. They will deny it in face of film footage. The usage of many lies they will coin Showing those who are paying attention That any mention of truth or honesty Will get instantly reversed and wielded, Fielded like a pop up ball, by lawyers And spin doctors on their political team To make it seem like the good guys Are not as wise as the black hats And that will be that, if you don’t stop them. So beat them, defeat them; turn it around! Those clowns can only lie for so long If you don’t go along and okay their crap Then slap them into jail when they cheat. Knock them off their feet, depose them Compose the right paperwork to reverse The worse things they do and then more; Even the score by sending them home. Comb the laws they wrote for corruption And the interruption of human rights. Fight fire with fire. If they holler, you shout And leave them out of the next round Of sound logic because they have none.

Are not thou supremely good and wise, Imparting these prodigious gifts - not in vain, What wonders are reserved inside the breadcrumbs reign? Amidst the breadcrumbs - the arguments have shown Such truth’s only given to guide us all home. Your visions’ mildness I shall not condemn, Taking up my pen to force your diadem. 'Tis true, Q grants the people what most they crave, Even more perhaps - than mortals ought to save - For lavish grants suppose the monarchs were all tamed With more than goodness than my wit can proclaim. But when should good people strive their bonds to break? If not when evil tyrants are negligent or weak? Let Q give on till he can give no more, ‘Lest we find ourselves homeless and poor - And to every shekel which Q can retrieve, Shall it cost a limb, a choice - or a prerogative? To supply new plots, shall be not my core, Nor to plunge us deep in some expensive war, Which, our treasures were never meant to supply, We must, with our remaining kinship, refuse to buy. Oh faithful friends forget our jealousies and fears Call on each other to solve the issues, don’t rejoice in tears. Whom amongst us, when our aid is torn, Shall be left naked and left to public scorn? Are we not the next successor, whom we fear and hate - If we allow these obnoxious leaders of state To turn all virtue into nigh and overthrow And denounce all righteousness both good and foe? Q’s right, they fight for sums of personal gold, The collateral is all of us to be pawned and sold - Like sheep to the slaughter, Where We Go One We Go All. They corrupt their titles into law, If not, we the people have the right to reign supreme. We did not make them the kings, these kings are made by them - An empire has no power unless that empire has trust - And without trust, it can no longer be just. Take them all down for the general good redesigned, In their own wrong any nation cannot be defined. In altering that, we the people can be relieved, Better the evil ones suffer, than all nations grieve. We all know their evilness their sins they chose, God was their king, and God they durst depose. Call now on your own piety, your spiritual, filial name, It is our right, to be fearless and let us build our own futures’ flame.

O, cry morning, sun breaks again In that history of banalities Are written, I finished the cigarette Before the coffee, twirling wind O, sigh morning as inverted Could carry me to the rock wall, thinning grey, Of the house where egos, bruised, seek guidance The black bird builds a decoy nest O, shy morning. churlishly answering questions never Asked before, “nah-uh, nah-uh, nah-uh,” (A ****** is heard, of most[ly] fowl) Spoken mostly to the fact: It is what it is. Acceptance O, belie morning. builds a brutalist window, round by row The they that walks whistles low with nebulous intent To remind itself to forget Abysm is a stranger in your city streets. O, blithe morning. Such cringing in place Of those sleeping hours, parsing the drop-ceiling’s Calligraphy: kings be draped in robes of flesh To depose the anarchists in cerebral lands, O, yes, my morning. a lechery for the heart, That religion of my given path Or its surrogate, the lawful rebels Writing on every city row, so willing but rough, My guest, O, my morning, such a pity! Restless and genuflect, the they does not find itself Swayed by the largess of absence Craning neck eastward toward the perfect morning, Ever on the cusp of the perfect twilight.

[O, cry morning,]
Lord, depose our Apollo, Be our true Lord of Poetry And so give us poetic licence To fulfil, To craft, To create With a God given palette In your own imagery. Blaze a trail from your heart To the spirits of men, Taking captives and setting them free To feast on your words of life, To move to your music of love, To emerse into an eternity of dance, To celebrate and so to reflect Your devine Artisan Soul.

Lord of Poetry
As the parch eternal light Waves logue stolid homage After death to exhort a ubiquitous warrigal Inherit yet to suckle sole Fickle penury lightening squares terse Malcontent eugenics dragoon, limitless To depose upon clouds of fire the mammoth Patrician lynchpin heard to glower farther Sovereignty; spate renascence soliloquies ravage And winkle out Almathea to give Deus sentence weoponry

Cloven Meadows ( G.O.A.T )
Hollow words **** Eat the egg by the pound Now the garish middle trees are supporting falling off the ridge Dare we go on with this dredge Like a lightbulb a canon filches the purse Byron you wrote you write Every substantiatable corn Harp harp on the nails digging into the digable ground Not like the pillow filled with clouds is the Syringe tinted Immobile tank last windows breath sank Lycan depose Merry hard rot and decompose Songs of worth and old Diametrically opposite to the World on its toes Blalala let the intern take his copy of its book to the marlin fishing grounds where the floodbanks roar over the waters and the tree leaves sank into the gravel patterns brave little capitol letters Hee hah hee hah Tripe and tripe on the wheels of Atlantis You’re exposed! Naw Thought and thoughted that the world was a cup Believe a word and your life could be ruined Believed their words now my life is ruined Have I now peddled the unmistakable And I ask, “But can truth be sold?” While a million others stole by

Time as got by the caravels, is a fluid motion propelling us forward and in a hopscotch moment, time leapt ahead by one hour of the morning clock. I am again in the shadow of a church where the dour looks of fanciful figures carved by loving hands from unforgiving material weigh heavily on my shoulders. The street sweeper who tells me his name is Stephen stops for a while to whisk a cigarette from the depths of a long tunic. Another artist to depose other artists. We talk of change and will the weather hold true, I offer a sip from my flask, he offers one from his, a most wonderful way to open these tired shutters onto an as yet unseen day. The old lady arrives with cheese and wine, I think she remembers, I think of breakfast, two cards silently placed in her hand and she smiles, later I wondered if I should have intervened and perhaps the impossible task is the only one possible for her day, the minutes flick my eyes as the sun lifts its own. But it is still calm for this hour, for this Holy Easter Day. No children yet to speckle the breast of innocent air, and no owl today, I look to where but no hoot from there and I ponder more deeply as the sun rises higher and my body sinks lower. Soon she wakes too, 'reasons to ask if you care then to answer', she says. I have no answer to answer and stay silent. A kiss on the Rose of her lips as we are and become two ships sliding fluidly across an ocean of time.

Darwinism has much more to do with phonetic encoding than with theorising an absence of theology (with signs an absece of the practice of 2 + 2 = 4), or trying to depose god or Tsar of Henry VIII prior to the bishop the cardinal... the priest, a dog... forget genesis or creativity, remember dentistry... in vacuum who's the happiest? a dog... and by god's grace we're the remnant of his existence, dodging dogs in mirror not so chiral... merely saliva... and by demand i know how to berserker a revisionist stand-off for a lampoon to say but one ensured non-differential letter! hence him less operatic than her, with her ******** vowel ooh ooh ah and his netting stability in Cumbria and Shropshire and suburbia in general, i.e. hula hoop... a sexuality of symbols, to think any man might treat vowels as feminine and consonants as male... hmm!

You predictable communists rant, your lobotomized zombies may chant. But the people for Trump are now over the **** You'd depose him, we know...  but you can't. PS: ** ** Hey Hey - Donald Trump has got to stay*!"

"A robot went away", I depose, "He'll surely deprave" , I posed with a red nose. He'll commence a new world of intelligence, Where there will be no values, no fragrance. No society, no feeling, no excitement, no heredity, He'll develop a society of discipline and punctuality. Are these 2 things only responsible for a country's economy? They'll rule over us, crush us. And , we'll be left lamenting ..and watching the eroding lust.. Surbhi Dadhich.

*sie wann eingeben krähenschar, sie lernen zu krächzen wie.* brrrrrrp... rülpsen die blitz... London en flammen... ähnlich: hängend auf ihr meßerschmitt flügel: zu total... liebe... unt: zement. ja. for some reason speaking vater deutsche makes perfect sense to care for: tochter englisch - deine vater, mein tochter: ist wenig volk diese tage. unless i have some undeciphered fetish dealing with the movement of people... m'eh... me as clueless as you - but i'll do the same unto you... mein tochet... funny how i can speak very bad german and then return to perfect english (unless you're my Irish critic) and perfect Polish (i have no critics there, being an exile, i'm technically non-existent). but it was all about a proverb an old Polish lady said: if you go among the crows, you must croak like a crow... that didn't get me far... the most painful expression encompassed by Solomon... certainty vanities really do include crucifixes and iron maidens to depose the king to grovel in his self-erected care to ask for wisdom and later keep a brothel... because it can't be called a harem once the king ages to 70... the harem becomes the bordell, no old walrus can compete; but i like speaking careless german... i just like the sound of it; if i'm bound to move to Frankfurt, i'll start reading die welt and not write my own crass volkspreschen.

Set Aloft in fabled scale Our heroes fought and they wailed Ascoff at the heretic way Against which he'd kneel and pray In Sordid aerial ritual fashion Deposed with an aural passion That helm against Helen goes While little fingers and toes depose Those who fight to stay aloft crushing those with figures soft Continued on in settled aims Some will settle with only fame For at the end, blood becomes dust The floating hollowness of what is must.
