"elitists" poems
Do you ever sit and dwell on thoughts of your old, unrewarding crushes? They're always the world at first, but over time their personalities begin to decay. And sadly, I still believe I caught a glimpse of something real through the seams of a stitched-up heart, even though many truths were spoken in jest. I will continue nail-chewing, nervously, 'cause I can still taste their salt on me; Never regretting-- yet, denying-- the deafening growl of my chainsaw libido overpowering theirs, as it cut right through, leaving our bodies in a lifeless spoon. This somehow helped me to overcome that kind of rejection when I was still tangible to the elitists I wished would keep out of my reach. But now, I've paid my dime to come to terms with the cool of the discomfort crashing down around me, like a black raspberry avalanche.

The Black Raspberry Avalanche
You ever think about how shallow some people are? So shallow that if you stepped in a puddle of them your feet would still be dry The people who aim to do things, maybe even great things just to impress or gratify someone To put someone down To make up for some kind of weakness To prove others wrong Those who create this image of themselves that appeases others perception of them Money Material things Cars Planes Designer clothes Gizmos and gadgets Things that don't mean anything more than a look see to anyone of real depth You know depth? To appreciate everything you're lucky enough to have or gain To understand the little things and the bigger picture To have been through hardships and learned from them Empathy Patience Passion Creativity Selflessness Respect Depth But then, there is something worse than being shallow Hollow To be empty of anything No desires No pleasure Just numb hopelessness The ones who have been hurt and just couldn't get back up And fill the void with either drugs, things of only monetary value or self-inflected lashings of pity, loathing and mistrust They look at the ones with depth and see them as idiotic idealists with no direction or any idea what it means to be part of a normal society They look at the shallow ones and see great figures of wealthy stature Exciting lives being lead by beautiful elitists

But What Does That All Really Mean?
Deep ridge, deplete elitists. Gold flows, layers, Dbridge, enriched tone, gates golden, heavenly. San Francisco, incomplete, switch robes. Can't be beat, Klitchschos, barking up the wrong tree, rich tones. Switch flows, risk it, rich tea, gifted. Unwritten, no gimmicks, smooth months, pale ale Guiness. Wrap presents, gift wrapped, signed sealed delivered. Dispatched, Spit fires, spit facts, die for the art. Mismatched. Calamity believe, nose dive. Kamikaze. No harder, fuel, nose powder. White knight in shing armour. 1688, Spanish Armada. Cut sharp like barber, bananas, permanent like markers, malleable like lava, pop like cava. Polova. Inscribe minds, magna carter. Magnificent bars, gold tales told. Slaves sold, reigns over. Cold shoulder, rainbow coloured mistakes, shoulders shudder, steer clear brother, execute rudder. Destitute, Scuppered. Destination under breath muttered. Spread like wildfire, butters, blindman, blackout, blinds again, shutters. Dunces, run **** Jump **** loose lips, loosing grip. Tip of the iceberg. Tip of the tongue, no nice words. Stigmata. Godfather, go harder for our forefathers. The time is ours.

Strictly Speaking Strictly Kamikaze
All estuaries flow eastbound, and the subterranean rail tracks keep forcing against the estuaries’ grain and dust foundations perpendicularly to them. How can a sane proposition -- a quantification of syntax execution (those squirming cuticles through bonds of regression)— an excessive reflection, reflexive inspection, Prove its sanity through continued suggestion? Deductive insurrections stirred in memory, A rumble, causing sediments to crumble, Wineglasses balanced atop countertops tumble. Spilling contents upon the grained wooden, elitists' floors. "Anesthetic, onsetting tuberculosis in breath patterns, Gavels ringing on rigged tolling tongs in caverns, Dark tolerances to Copernican astronomy in shadows, And the handle grinds as boxcar wheels' flints and steels catch and spark in addled locks," I mumbled from a half-nap. It was surgery, the smooth procedures on the moving trains, The gains and plectrums scraped against the brains' spider veins, To reorganize the sane, to bridge the broken definitions changed, To prevent arguments' bone structure from fractures and sprains. "Use gavels against the scalpels, sculpt with their judgment," a corona dream's habitant corrugated. He pounded the gavel's end against the knife to chisel at the pituitary gland pulsing in his subject, And her arms flailed like a horse's legs in heat-induced convulsion. I thought it was done. The Canson Merue train screamed in the night under earth to Yellowknife to meet Canadian soil as the Heavy Breather pounded his gavel.

but... i ain't promiscuous
i look at myself in the mirror and i see a red-haired leopard with man-eating eyes that are smudged with left-over eyeliner from a night-out with the elitists i see silky, curly red hair that people so often get entwined in thinking that this is the reason for the things i do in the mirror my lips are a beautiful snarl and my freckles, camouflage for the jungle i creep in my nose, a defining arc reflected back at me, a red-haired leopard in a concrete jungle doesn't belong here got put in a zoo on accident a red-haired leopard looking for escape from inside of me they'll try to tell you that mirrors lie but they don't

Talk to me about flowers and fires. The orchids of our collected youths are bleeding into rose water and being smashed into books. For a little look like a picture stretched under a slide hiding, elfin to run back away from us. In the hearth of us we wonder what the charcoal will draw next. Sticks on the banks of the styx In it’s flicking midst I can almost see the little beat-less heart in the center of the cherry. It’s like it’s still held still in pursed lips. In a falling little flame accidently spilling it. Out in Saturday mornings. Out of school so sliding in our nose rings. Skiving by lying with fist rubbed eyeballs. The swell, Then the classic sweetness of the re-sleep. Marker pen graffiti. Feeling like elitists because we don’t like elitists. Defeatist is in right now, love's yet a fable. (Planets are ***** on physics tables, and writings on my hands, but **** it man, I won’t remember them, anyway. Blurry nameless kisses tasting like French lager, or is that me? Bellybutton shots. Love at a coin toss or against a brick wall was at it's best. But there’s room for two in this tent full of burn-holes. Iron maiden. never paid but in microphone coldness on the lips. Lifted on the fix. Giving the week in a night and taking the night for a week, with velocity. Headbanger’s neck on the pen-bottle **** being used, being used up. Swimming against the river. Golden Virginia, Sobranies in the bus shelter. And as the day's screen goes over we still kept the bonfire running in the rain. That's what talks to me. I'm laying back, but moving forwards, involuntarily.

I can't stand the way we grind, people try to rhyme about how everything is fine, but really they're the ones who blind us while the elitists of this time commit their crimes, there's no time to become famous cause the ones that provide for us also deprive us, til I came in attempts to revive us, too bad we're self-righteous it's only a matter of time before a mass crisis arises, unless we reverse our ways and go back to naturalistic days, too bad that's just a faded dream like the haze smuggled onto our streets by the same people who object to legalizing it, most are oblivious to the ways of a priest, he's there so you don't **** your ***** niece, stuck in the underground, fell through a crease, but that don't matter cause it's all just for lease, you're kidding yourself if you think this is fiction, open your eyes and stop letting corporate news tell lies to your children via the false ways of a Christian, trying to ruin our ambition and replace it with a tuition, following an unsustainable audition, go ahead start on your trike cause the words I spit are way beyond the concept of a bike

Unsustainable Hype
the elitists have decided lilred is worthy of their presence that she is funny enough to banter her way through their parties that she, but none of her other friends has graduated to the upper-classmen "make sure you tell her to keep it quiet not to tell those other people where she's going tonight" it is a privilege to hang with the dog-eaters to sip from solo cups standing with legs crossed eyes rolling at the antics of the elitist boys but lilred doesn't want to be another toy in their collection to be brought out when the parties drag wound up and let loose. lilred knows just what goes on lilred likes her other friends who don't but poor lilred she still goes... welcome to the elitists

elitist friday
Automobiles and road rage Alcohol and steering wheels Texting and driving The Military and U.S. Steel Banks and mercy Fashion and comfort Priests and Godliness Trade alliances and imports. Republicans and The Constitution Bigots and non-Caucasians Christians and homosexuals Unbalanced equations. Elitists and human flaws The rich and the poor. Anger and loaded guns You and the Jews next door. They are naturally equal But they’re exactly opposite Sometimes they balance But often there’s no sense to it. Attorneys and justice Lobbyists and compassion. Science and the church Trust and politicians. Monsanto and private farms Pipelines and ecology Fracking and water rights Minorities and majorities. Hope and desperation Citizen’s rights and Tea Party Media and integrity Politics and morality Free enterprise and monopolies Censorship and free press Freedom of expression And illegal social duress. They are naturally equal But they’re exactly opposite Sometimes they balance But often there’s no sense to it.

Exiles from a dysfunctional global pipe-dream of borderless corporate matriarchies, multi-kulti nonsense and data-driven diversity where virtue-signaling despots ruled and those so confused they didn't know their own gender competed for victim-status as they shrieked, where rainbow torches on the filthy walls smoldered with toxic smoke barely illuminating the fragments of computer carcasses we had to step over, we fled the oppression of passive-aggressive elitists suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome to found a pure republic, based on poetry, goodwill and faith in God. We emerged from the labyrinthine caverns and malodorous tunnels into the light right outside the cave: Clear, strong patriarchal light purifying the fresh air. We breathe deeply. *Once I saw some Vikings sail the sea looking for Diet Coke only to find angry gulls and mothers squawking in parking lots as the dust of the gentle hills disappeared down the unpaved road of rolling Scandinavian seas.* I was emotionally engaged once . . . but she was a neurotic feminist poet, so I broke it off and moved to Kekistan where (thanks be to Kek) I married my TWO Kekistani brides.

Bring It On Home
when trillions catch up with them and play-money isn't going to cut it We don't want anything to change, but we want it fixed! scream pleading millions who have never seen a silver platter, let alone had one handed to them elitists feast upon the stationary what do you when the Social Security checks stop rolling and you can afford your life-saving medicine about as much as you afford your own private island your eyes carry barrels of worry while the food bank keeps your head above the tsunami but just barely you stop sleeping, because what if a wave comes in the night and snatches it all away? crying shame doesn't even begin to cover it this is what you do: not out of want out of necessity arch your shoulders, feel the gritty blood pumping still something they can never cut is your faith that things will get better before they end.

They say we're in a money mess their figures certainly impress but who will pay their monstrous bill now the bankers have had their fill. It's not my battle but I must pay I'm volunteered to save the day they're cutting back on those we care for the weak the sick - not those who have more. There's nothing left for those in need while fat cats scrounge with consummate greed it's survival for the elitists supported by the market's fleetest fleece-ests.

Saving the Day
One of my favorite things about art is that no one can prove you’re wrong or you aren’t doing it right. It’s entirely subjective. Of course there are snobs who consider art to be based off a standard that some elitists decided to define it as. Art can be vague, obscure, messy, precise, detailed, sharp, among many other adjectives which capture a piece and its inspiration. You can’t define art. Art is not defined of determined by conventions. Art, raw art, is creation. It’s expression. It is a language, and it connects and communicates with the viewers to whom it speaks. It is completely open to interpretation. There is no set standard to measure it by, and it is open for discussion without being an argument. I don’t know if those who try to see art in concrete terms appreciate it much, like art always needs to have a purpose and be analyzed. Art doesn’t have to have an assigned meaning, and the belief that it does only reflects the arrogance of a critic who aims to immediately understand what may be confusing. Colors happen accidently In trying to find the perfect shade Mixing and blending colors that are there Creating ones that weren’t The ones before now aren’t

Abstract Art
The bass player for Korn Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu Plays in a distinctive style Using the slap bass technique By down tuning the bass guitar To the point where there is enough slack in the strings That they hit the fretboard while playing Slapping the bass He also increases the treble significantly Accentuating a recurring clicking sound throughout their recordings Some people view this positively I feel it gives the music more texture Like putting a little pepper on the song But some hate it They say it makes Korn’s music unenjoyable And annoying A little clicking noise Makes their music instantly horrible For some people it’s never good enough They will always be listening for your small clicking noises And demand you change at their whim Ordering you to tighten your strings until they snap They say Fieldy ***** They say Fieldy is a ****** bassist While never putting out any content themselves So they can throw rocks from the dark Forcing one to ask themself Who am I making this art for? The fickle and ignorant masses Or the jaded and pretentious elitists? The answer must be neither Art must be made for the self With the hope that others will be able to relate And whatever your craft is Some people will appreciate the hard work and dedication And some people will hear a small clicking sound You just have to slap their face With the way you slap your bass

Reginald Arvizu
We've got fascists on the left Nazis on the right Supremacists in the middle All dressed up in white As commies come in colors That are hard at times to see They're still a colorful array Of daily catastrophe Socialists here to tell us As a matter of fact you can Take candy from a baby And put it in someone else's hand With elitists at the top To tell us how to breathe And the poor without a paddle At the bottom of the stream And while I'm at it, what life doesn't matter In the grand scheme of things Be it red, black, yellow, white Or fluorescent Martian green All I really want Is to be left alone In my lower middle class Without your fine tooth comb Hate who and what you like Just please leave me be And I'll leave you alone To your insanity
