"docket" poems
If I could simply overcome Possessive nouns and vowel sounds I would not need to study ****** Heavy lies’ beheaded crowns But you make martyrs with your charter School exclusive service sector To systemically condemn me To the destitution nectar Of the corner story ****** Potential Cinderella caged in The statistics of the mathematic Overdose equation Comatose’n like a Holy Ghost Of tranquil ranking party skanks Whose tanks plan out the projects For the boys still shootin’ blanks And then the slavers liberate Some nation-state of god forsaken Oil barons salivate To taste the poison Apple’s stake in Stock in stuffer markets takin’ All the products people makin’ Privatizing profit-docket lawless Mother Nature rapin’ For some scarcity disparities In wealth I can’t attain You keep me feeding on the bottom From the top, you make it rain So as the brains continue drainin’ In amenity dependency I tinker with the inner-machinations Now the enemy You’ve made me out to be you see My generation’s future’s bleaker Than the past in full HD

What Cuts to Education Spending Do to Kids in a Global Capitalist Cesspool of Gory ****** Poverty, and Drug-Addicted Killing Sprees
The courtroom was buzzing, Deals were struck, Before Her Worship Heard from the docket. Will Luke be saved. A line of roguish consorts All on Legal Aid, Paraded before Her, In judical chains. And the lawyers are asking About The Game of Thrones. There are too many cops, All creased and shiny, Carrying file folders, Outling the crimes. I was a spectator, Small in my corner, As Luke went to stand Before his maker, Before his deal breaker. All charges dropped, As if a matter of course; Except for the charges From the laswyer and court.

Misdemeanors
To rivit and gaze abrrantly Your visually sick behind retina Processing on whimsical stammor Docket’s of false telltale pouring from hundreds of mouths All while one gamming sheray from your eyes says enough Those worn graying-blued bags underneath; They show a hard working bluff Devised; let’s embellish our stares of evil on outward crowds Let us pick out other bagged eye crevices, and not moving blabbers’ Nothing but the time they’ve gave; those wise ******* dabblers’ We glance the demon out for thrill We are the visually ill.

Visually ILL
A vinyl record makes the rounds, dust attached loose to the needle, imperceptibly breaking off making short homes for each molecule in each black groove. Your hurricane breath will send them subatomic- Superdomeward on your next mad quest to convince your girlfriend that you are neat&clean.; You sit crosslegged, Buddha on the brain, corporation on the docket. Which one do you dream of? And more importantly, which one should you dream for? The twenty in your pocket will get you one-fifth of a silver ring or five turkey sandwiches. “You can’t have your cake and eat it too”—it wasn’t Buddha who said that, but it’s Buddha’s smiling voice in which you hear it now, between your ears. “What the **** does that mean, Buddha?” you sigh, and there is no answer. You move, and move, and you keep on moving. You leave a little molecule on the subway, and on the bar, and on the sidewalk without feeling it, losing them to short homes vulnerable. The hurricane breath or the sunshine or the invisible rubber glove of Buddha, or Carl Solomon, or Walter Cronkite or God or whoever does the universe’s spring cleaning will send them subatomic-Superdomeward and you’ll never even know you missed them. Your girlfriend thinks it’s realcool you have a record player, but it’s a little dusty, she says. You touch her lower back and smile. You get eye-level with the needle, and you blow.

Hurricane Breath
We've had enough we want our boys home there's no need for more dying on battle fields all alone These wars stealing lives and not just of the soldiers broken hearts of their families dealing with new burdened shoulders Dead, disabled body and spirit the families cry out ENOUGH but our leaders don't hear it Playing their politics doing so for their profit the war machine must continue and reelection first on the docket They've forgotten the people the little guy no longer matters since Citizens United allowed these politicians new handlers The ballot belongs to the rich it's money stuffing the box and one of these days we'll find our country on blocks

ENOUGH
I knew this pretty rave girl Always thought about her The way she danced, The way she purred. Her skin tight red dress, Offering no resistance. Knocked out and gagged. Red leather and chains, A flattering position. A scene so serene As the red splashed On white canvas with Stroke of brush and blade. I turned those crimson tears To roses.

Docket # 32990 (1st in series)
Red lips Scarlet scarf Sitting in the park. Innocent, sweet pigtails. Beacon in the darkness. Screams with no answers, Ecstasy in red water. With rope and rusted hooks, Posed like the divine devil. Forty lashes to the front Paints her black and red gown.

Docket # 40890 (2nd in series)
Galleria Santa Monica, White wash walls, High ceiling, dim lights. Bunch of ****** In black and glasses peruse. Three feature pieces, Tamed Dames of the big city. A bit gruesome, but they love the realism Or so they say as they cringe. Wine, almost as sweet As the nectar of life fills the room. Licking my lips, gaze drifting Her smile crashes into me. Sweet cherry blouse hides A golden badge.

Docket # 72104 (4th and final in series)
Sometimes in life, you have to cope with your challenges. Some of our challenges are flammable challenges. When you try to burn them, they burn you too! When you try to bury them, they bury you too! You end up asking yourself, what kind of challenge is this? Indeed, you end up asking yourself, what kind of sheet is this? Unstoppable stack of sheets, until they slap you with a docket. Indeed, an unstoppable stack of sheets, until they slap you with a blanket. Now is fun, because even marriages have their secrete stack of sheets. Never mind, most of them have their secrete stack of sheets. A man with no flammable challenges is the man you do not know. Better trust a man, with flammable challenges you know. Lord of Joseph, be my savior in this game of flammable challenges. Lord of David, be my conqueror in this life of flammable challenges. Written By: The Senior Date: undefined

Stack Of Sheets
She was a child once. A child young And innocent and full of energy and she was hurt. Cuts and scrapes can be recovered from easily. Mindset cannot be replaced. Now, she wears a neon sign that flashes: Broken. That screams: Help me. That pleads: Save me. And yet, her face is a page full of smiles and lies. She is the girl that every boy wants and every girl wants gone. She is lipstick smears and morning after pills and [she is cutting herself in the bathroom again] She is beauty at the point of dissolve. Her mask of make-up cracks and in those cracks, You can see a wall of tears. She was a child once: a child young and innocent and full of energy. And now, now she is on the evening news. She is the daughter every mother is ashamed of. Docket number 7356. A DUI added to the mix. She Is the one at the high school reunion everyone says: what happened to her? And her answer? What is it? "I grew up." She was a child once. Then she grew up.

A Child Once
I have boarded the train (I've snuck in with no ticket) And there are thoughts that won’t leave me alone. I wish for the day when the driver will say: "You're not meant for this ride; You've no money, no manners You're a poor excuse of a man; Fix your collar, keep your chin up, Get a job so we won't suffer Because this ride's a luxury. If you have any qualms and/or disqualifications Then walk. I have left the station I have dropped off the docket So please just leave me to hang and to carry.

The Train
As the sun passes a million brighter stars, there seems to be no illumination, for space is all black, but when the curtain is pulled back, we can see as if we produce a similar articulation. And as galaxies collide, and gloriously divide, into life more vibrant than ever, to see a nebulae derived from the very death of those bodies.   But then back on a small planet, the most ridiculous enchantment, this third rock that travels so precarious in its position. With what seems like little transition, but always on the brink of extinction, although never any closer then the day before. The endless hopes of irresistible dreams, often holding us till we scream, till we breath the air of reasoning, wisdom, truth to find the greater meaning which is offered up as proof. Cause no matter the tools you trade with, or how you chew the fat, the space around you remains black, until the curtain is pulled back. We search the world for meaning, for universal truth, but we forget to look in front of us, its underneath our boot. The ant that moves your dirt around, the cockroach that shares your food, you shouldn't search for meaning when God treats you like a stool. A black hole will take the light and never give it back, and this is the same as when murderers attack, for they steal a life and never give it back all things are found in nature, just check your docket stack. But then people are as bright and warm as the sun, and some have the gravitational pull of the largest planets, giving us balance. The sun was the start and is the end of our glorious existence, which we will never see in our blink of a pittance of life. But the spirit, the soul, that will journey on to systems more bright, we see there is no curtain in sight and we are on an endless flight, where we rise above our spirit. To a harmonious place with love as the only exchange rate, and hate is left for obvious reasons, but often annoyed, that people have so little joy, in merely gazing up into the ever after. And while ipads are fun, and google sky map has it by the ton, your eyes...are the best judge of amazing. Look up!!

She passed me on the street, My next masterpiece that is. Five foot eight, brown hair, baby blue eyes. Darling angel with a big smile. She deserved nothing less than a Dark alley flash of steel lights out. Pure simple, quick. Sitting posed against the wall, Red letters spell her fate. What she is many will know, What she gave me I will show.

I have so many poems in front of me That may never see the light Would I have wrote had I known They'd be laid by the wayside All with the best intentions To bring them to fruition But alas today's the day Of more subtraction than addition Sitting patiently in the docket Awaiting on their turn A turn that never seems to come Another lesson to be learned But still a hope in hand is held out For the day my thoughts run dry And I'll go back to where I left them On the wayside of poetic life

The Wayside
Docket Time There is always something more on the cards You think you have a full house and your enemy Does something unexpected from his bad script Written by amateurs and paid for by lunatics Doing all they can to harm you and your interests No more book files they deleted them due to that The action I dared do against them the other day For I carry my ******* ***** in my bag ready to go Oppose them in all ways possible fit to lose Just takes one chance to win be weak to be strong Over the edge and loop back all’s fare in business Or was my moan too big making my cards copy type? Rip off rain runny ink degrades after three goes I only need one attempt to lower your company No longer top three number four busts you up Not printed cash that’s so 20th Century! Now its stocks shares interests and bonds Ledger money written in real ink or electronic All that wanga belongs to the big elites and NWO Certain families run the world so we are all fine Living in **** running up bills rent deposits finance Nothing to help the working person except maudlin Sombre poems by the gal before she kaputted She’s my sis by a different mum you wankers! Revenge will be mine so discreet creeping in Like the new dawn you think its night when it’s night Over to you come and see my sing live I’ve no security my show is for you alone What will you do when the end grabs you? I dare you to be serene or actually react…

He loved me and that set me free In account of my flaws he embraced my claws I attacked and I fought all in response to gifts he brought He loved me but I didn't love him We fought and we had silence while trying to build resilience But the world is cruel and a lot like high school I wanted to give you more but I had nothing more in store There's always new stock in the market Beautiful men have always ben on my docket I thought wed have a chance at forever but the inevitable is never Playboys and drinks spinning in cycle like the roller rink I've let you go now but I'm not sure I know how I wanted this to last but our feelings were vast

Poem 2
During my high school days I was a fat kid afraid of making any ****** advances I never went to any school dances because I knew this fool's chances were lower than evergreen branches. My definition of try was hair that was dyed and apparel fly I bought some **** clothes but they were 4XL now I only spread sheets that far for Excel because it reminds me of my ex hell when my enthusiasm for *** fell because of how weight impacted my mobility and society negated my nobility just for the food filling me which was admittedly killing me with cholesterol and restaurants billing me because I was addicted to eating willingly. Then I started counting calories for purely cosmetic purposes which gave me more of my salary canceling extraneous purchases but it mainly stopped my self hating I started meeting people and dating which feels like competing for ratings which can be quite grating but my chances for love are fading so my life can no longer be about delaying finding someone who's interested in staying. Now my docket shows **** licks and crossfit no longer frost bit by locked lips I got this advantage to not being lonely but now I gain no new homies when no one wants to know me just blow me showing I'm not really growing just getting laid but that's a decent trade for the life I had made getting food filleted to a lower grade.

It's Lonely Weighting
Empty pockets Gather dust And children’s toys And other stuff I reach inside And never know What will come up And what will grow Turned inside out The pockets reveal A history The things we steal Many things that gather And find their way Inside my pocket It’s all okay One day I think I’ll write a book Of pocket stories Will take a look A Herstory A gathering docket Of all the stuff Inside my pocket

Inside My Pocket
I have my choice of amazing woman but yet I feel pain Is it because they love me but yet I don’t feel same, About her or her or you or you Please I wish someone would just tell me what to do Yet rather how to feel, about this pain in my chest that I don’t wish to reveal. For I love only one so all my ex’s want an appeal. Docket after docket on how I should be with them Just want to shut them all out and fall into my REM You see that's Rapid Eye Movement but my eyes only moved for you On this ship of relation that I would have forever stayed true. But for you it wasn’t the same, for the heart wants what it wants If that wasn't me then why was it a future you would taunt But I no longer feel guilt, pain, or obligation, For I have come in terms with being an abomination. I am such a fool for relishing in your eyes and caving to your temptation You are my greatest regret when you should have been my greatest salvation

Anguish
Love is now illegal. No longer may you empathize with the broken. You must never talk to strangers. No more spontaneous hugs. No more finding common ground. Divisiveness is a requirement. Joy is no longer to be found. Tomorrow's docket? Argue over nothing. Hate your neighbor because they're different. Politics is all that matters now. Do you hear that silence? It's a deafening sound. Judge everyone from a pale horse. Religion brings a sword to strike them down. Nothing left is meaningful. Don't hold that door for that woman. That's ****** harassment now. Don't use that bathroom. Handicap is a gender now. You may not own a gun. If you do you'll **** children. And become the talk of the town. What have we become? What happened to fearing fear itself? I'm tired of chain-smoking. I'm tired of the now. It's not about amendment rights. It's not about trump cards. It's not about those clowns. It's about each other. It's about being understood. When we become empathy.. There's no room for any blood. In Love be lost and found.
