Reggae Da flurry of rastafarianism be tearin' up the houses. Destroyin' mailboxes as dey 'proach me home. Den, like lightnin' they be in front of me. We like you, Reggae Reggie They say But we be as poor as a washed up Island Boy I fear for my safety So we gonna have to rob you Me pull out a gun n shoot the kids. Fuck'n chumps tink dey can rob me.

Reggae Kids Comin' Down the Road
My auspicious and audacious assault augments the annoyance of aged accomplices. My bodacious broadside of boffolas berates and buffaloes bros beneficently. A classy crusade Clownishly chiseling and criticizing childishness. A devilish ********** of dillydallying dullards; devoutly denying dimwits the dulcet dream of defiance. Excessive, exuberant edification, ebulliently eliminating education-evictees. A fair-weather frolic in flippancy with furious fools floundering in flawed foppishness. Gregariously grating glum guys gleefully, growing grander garnishes of gripping gallantry gaily. Heckling hooligans highlights my heavenly humor. Irreverently irking irritable, iniquitous idiots in inestimably infuriating and incredible instances. A jolly, jocular **** joking with jerks. A kreiger kicking kleptomaniacs in the karyotype. (Cut me some slack, this is 'k', after all.) A ludicrous, laughing lambaste of lollygagging lunatics, loftily loosing luscious lunacy on lucky losers. A magnificent masterpiece of malfeasance, a monstrous, malevolent mission of massive misfortune for the minor minors missing no malicious missive. A noxious, narcissistic niggling of nitwits, niftily nixing the noisome naivete of niggardly nobs. An offhand, off-color outburst of outlandish observations to outclass the obnoxious overtures of obsequious offal. A pragmatic prediction of possible platitudes or platypi, a placid parley of pyrotechnic pleasantries provoking Pyrrhic protections by prurient prats. A quixotic quibble quarreling with a queer quarry. Ribald ribbing, ruining the robust reality of the repreachful, repugnant, and rapacious with risque ridiculousness. A silly, slighting slander of sluglike slavishness, succinctly sinking sloppy simpletons sourly. Tracing the titillating talent of towing tyranny to towering terrors to tactless, togless, terrapins of the times.

Rascals, ruffians and rogues alike. Slumming the alleys with their slurs, And sewage rats. Across the streets, just beyond the performers. The dames of paradise carrying flowered parasols. *A ***** she is. Stupid Alessandra!* one said. The hooligans hugged each other with glee, As the women struck each other, With their spiteful words. Filthy, is the life of the cleaner souls, And rich, is the life of the poorest minds. Alas, the weirdest of them all is God.

Harried, Harassed, Hassled and Hounded- These are the H-words I work by. Harpies and Henchmen, Harridans and Heathens- These are the H-folk I work with. Hubbub and Hokum and Hurly-burly- These are the places I do it. Hoodlums and Hooligans, loaded with Hubris- These are the clients I deal with. Heartless and Horrible, Hateful and Hurtful These are the attitudes around me. Hopeless and Hapless, Haggard and Helpless- This is the way I usually feel. What happened to Happy, and Hopeful and Harmony- These are the H-words I search for. Hinder and Hobble, Heckle and Hamper- These are the Hamstrings that trip me. Heaven and Harmony, Humor and Honor- These are the things that I strive for. Havoc and Hades, Hurt, Hate and Hauteur- These are the H’s that I have to conquer. Hope, Help, and Herculean effort- Is How I will finally get myself Home. ljm

THE H-WORDS
Brackets Your mum picked you up in daddy’s BMW, we had to wait an hour while they scrubbed the brains of another son off the roof of the 125 (Why they built a multi storey car park on top of the bus station is a mystery to me.) You carefully colour coordinated your files and scrutinized your revision schedules, we watched nicked CCTV footage of two blokes smoking crack and burning down the bowling pavilion next door (the old boys never did raise enough to repair it.) You snubbed each other because of different tastes in jumpers, we watched acid casualties talk politics with football hooligans (a hastily rolled joint bridged the obvious gap.) You lounged in the common room in your study periods, our lesson got cancelled because John had been smashed in the face with a fire extinguisher (and our tutor used to be a lifeguard.) You worried about fashion and discussed the injustice of last night’s X Factor result, we watched Neil’s head crash into his keyboard after he’d scoffed all his methadone in one go (again.)

There is rutabaga, and ratatouille, gotta love alliteration Then Albuquerque and Tallahassee, are somewhere in our nation And Saskatoon, Saskatchewan found in Canada, my dear In old colloquial, there were hooligans and shenanigans, I fear At school I use a dongle it connects me to my work I hope I didn't bumfuzzle you, didn't mean to be a **** Just one more word on my short list and to see what it can do Find the one you love and in sweet soft voice just turn and utter "pooh"

Nigeria 🇳🇬 A lot has happened to you since 62 You're a year older, and still most of your kin hates you They forget how they may not exist without you Yes! You are on the brink of hell, To say your name has been marred with gutter An act from most of your children You have suffered the injustices of men We hear cries of your children in the North Thousands of hooligans in the South-West There is so much bad blood in the East The Middle Belt doesn't know her role or who to follow Your name has been berated all over the world Your currency, at the brink of death with the stock market Stolen funds for those who can grasp it Banditry for the suffering Masses Illegal mining, yet no one is talking about it You have suffered bickerings from people who want to _Japa_ A fluctuating forex makes it no easier They blame you for their atrocious behaviour They sometimes forget how fertile you are. Nigeria! From East-West and North-South, you have suffered injustices For decades, you have been subject to malicious governance Battling all levels of inflation, subjecting your people to abject poverty Yet the rich get richer, and the poor? More Jejune if you ask. At 63, I want to fight. For your children and kinship Fight for your soil and regain your strength Battle with these injustices and insecurity Bring down inflation and take back your crown Debunk all forms of evil committed with your name And fight for a better 64. Nigeria is great, Nigeria will be great Nigeria is our father's land. Happy Independence Day, Nigeria 🇳🇬 Bellah.

Raindrops, accompanied by morning coffee’s aroma Ice cubes and cola, that galaxy on the surface of the fizzing soda The smell of old books, while reading as you sat on a sofa Simple joys, euphoria, now free your mind from the entire enigma Rasasvada, the taste of bliss in the absence of all thought Maybe the mental state in which your mind experiences drought People watching, people praying, people playing, people like droids Over the course of history, we’ve discovered hundreds of thousands of asteroids The first one is Ceres; now ask yourself, “Do I exist”? Are you suffocated by the alienating effect of urban life; which you still can’t resist? Inside the neon-soaked metropolis, transgression, and the ignorance of youth Truth realizes itself; and that is the truth Dusk falls, starry night, the slumbering dark will rise What made you think that you are wise and that you’d never compromise? It is only while the city sleeps that you can understand its heaviness Of what? The weight of your consciousness It was once said that the smallest thing that you’d see is human kindness And if not, what else will explain mankind and his varied emptiness Death defies and completely violates the laws of the universe The prophets did not write their words on papers, in a verse They are engraved inside the minds of street hooligans and space vagabonds Wars don’t end wars, trivial things, and worshiping new gods with brands Humanity, please keep your sanity. Regress towards simplicity and put away your vanity People watching, people praying, people playing, people who forgot what it means to ‘be’ The ebb and flow of life are as strange as the creases on your sweater You, a slave of order, creature of magnificent wonder A being who seeks purpose and solace, in your thoughts you dwell So long, tonight I hope you sleep well

Your generation is defined by definitions. 'This generation', this new-fangled bunch of hooligans Cut out and put in the oven, Lives pre-formed, based on premonitions, Put into the system and cranked out Made up of numbers and tests that really define who you are. 'This generation' that you have given a set of rules A set of molds to fit into To pour their lives out and 'better the world' Shaped with your all-knowing tools Scissors that cut funding to the parts that maybe, Perhaps, might make them an individual. Because here, no, here we don't have room for individuality But we sure have room for this assembly Your freedom of religion, speech, and freedom to assemble No room for that, for fear of immorality We don't have time for originals, we don't have time for strays I'm sorry that you've got ideas, Generation Y But this is the generation of time constraints. We've got technology to innovate, an ozone to fit Communities to build and lives put at risk But that's not as important as what's in the now No, not as important as these tucks and nips We've got to put you under the needle Even after we swore, 'first do no harm', But this isn't going to hurt, I swear Well, maybe not on the outside. Look here, Y, you'd be better off compliant To fix our computers and drive our trucks To turn off your TVs and just trust us To read the chapter and finish the assignment Because to us, you all learn the same, To us you are still just a number Even if you think you're out when you graduate. So what, you graduated the system, And it's done it's work on you Have your daddy pick the college and your mama pick the sheets Pack your bags, you're ready for the big world And that's exactly what we made you think. Generation Y, you are fitting into the molds we gave you We tried to crank you out in groups of 300 And we did You were never allowed to be original And you weren't. Generation Y, this cookie-cutter, uniform 'Glued to technology', uninterested Group of 'stupid' teenagers You were forced to unify And forced into corrals, thereby, Forced into lives we've blessed you with. I swear, by my very intelligence That we're good by you, good by the world In evaluating what we need Where we need people Hopefully creating a society less-gnarled Generation Y, you may hate the population But you are the population And you are what we told you to be. Your lives were pre-formed from day one, So, please, Sit down, shut up, finish your definitions, And stop asking why.

Generation Y, you are fitting into the molds we gave you We tried to crank you out in groups of 300 And we did You were never allowed to be original And you weren't. Generation Y, this cookie-cutter, uniform 'Glued to technology', uninterested Group of 'stupid' teenagers You were forced to unify And forced into corrals, thereby, Forced into lives we've blessed you with. I swear, by my very intelligence That we're good by you, good by the world In evaluating what we need Where we need people Hopefully creating a society less-gnarled Generation Y, you may hate the population But you are the population And you are what we told you to be. Your lives were pre-formed from day one, So, please, Sit down, shut up, finish your definitions, And stop asking why.

Maybe we’ve moved past The jazz dancing nights Baby brownie bites into freedom Now A pathology of pathologically pathetic patterns Day in, day out Wax on, wax off One of these days: I’ll learn the piano Beethoven, bach, ben folds One of these days Handstands, happiness, hope Will string through the summer loving Hooligans One of these days We robo-people will wind down, Slow, Stop, Need oil for our rusted bits Head, shoulders, knees, and even toes But, mr. tin man, what if Dorothy Never comes along? We won’t blink for centuries And maybe the world will finally come alive

Awaken
in a city that breeds hooligans ingrates and indecencies, where the architecture of a lost era crumbles into brothels and madhouses, where shootings peak with the heat of summer, where new windows are boarded up daily and we chop down trees like fanatics, in the city I call home, in the city I love, destroyed by its ignorance, I am condemned to silent pleas and empty stares.

The walk to the 'Brain Hole' was shorter than expected, but the muffled screams from behind locked doors I knew would be here, so they were of no concern, and besides, the fix was in place. These hooligans had no idea who they we're messin' with. You don't just sign up for the Moonstone Project, you get selected. Galactic insurrection is a serious business with serious consequences. And besides, I still had the pink pill hidden in a safe dark place. What, me worry about a few brain ******* machines? Not me. This was going to be fun.

In a derby and suit, riding tall in the saddle, A stranger paraded one day. He rode through the street of a town in Nebraska, Astride a magnificent Bay. Though stately and proud he was oddly attired, Where cowboys and outlaws abide. And the gun that he wore, of an uncommon bore, Hung uncomfortably high on his side The attention he drew from the unseemly crew Of misfits (an unsavory lot) Was cause to give rise to a keen viewer's eyes Trouble might be more likely than not. Thugs are known to have fun by the threat of a gun To a stranger perceived as a dude. They often get rough and hostile and tuff; By their nature they're rowdy and rude. So it weren't no surprise when there came an up-rise Of cat-calls and whistles that day. While others just smiled, some were getting quite riled, As the stranger dismounted the Bay. He seemed not to care, ignored every dare, As he entered a bar called "The Shed." He called for a brew, then changed it to two; Said,"Take one over there to Big Fred." Now everyone knew that Big Fred was the worst of hooligans staying in town. In Sidney, Nebraska there weren't any faster When it came to shooting men down. The bar keeper trembled and shook as he ambled, Across the floor toting the beer. The mug was half empty when he finally reached Fred, Who now gazed at the dude with a sneer. The bar room grew still and the tension seemed loud. You could feel with a god-awful dread That a message was meant in the beer that was sent By the strangely dressed dude To Big Fred. "So it's you," uttered Fred. "Thought by now you'd be bound, To a Deadwood strike, off mining gold. I had thought you'd forget memories I now regret; I hoped that trail would finally grow cold." "It's the Masterson code and the gambler's creed To even all scores with a rat." And by those word every Sidney buckaroo knew That the stranger who spoke them was Bat. Fred reached for his iron with a lightning fast draw That never quite cleared the leather And no one even saw Bat Masterson's draw That silence Big Fred forever.

The air is clear tonight I am relaxed overeager hooligans are shooting fireworks into the face of the muggy night sky The light summer breeze smells like her my head is swimming with words the right one always on the tip of my tongue the right one always out of reach a family on the sidewalk out front of their house the women fat and weathered the men unkempt and wiry small children running around laughing and a disabled man sitting in the open door of a car which blares bluegrass and I am yet to walk the hills where does this trail lead? or better yet, what does any of this mean? blah blah blah yaddah yaddah yaddah tonight, none of that matters

A city made from music and gas -a humor of golden mass in the boiler room phosphoric eyes launching up; heroes come slower now, fearful, decadent as if engorged by war for too long changed; within the soil looking up from the street with malleable bones like antennae sending up endless prayers expressing nothing if not heard a city, a dome, a breast cannibals small, eating freely ‘a passing rebuttal’ a glance in the ride – which smiles back and the world followed will and the earth gladly sipped cooks cooking better asleep; poems, gas, meat, hunger locked in horn knowing they’re the wrong type of poem free to do whatever they ever wish even the energy of old worms has sense and the concrete knows the distance from where they have come from the earth-helping them back, by natural pull, or passerby before the parade comes and the hooligans still have rage and bayonet colliding inside faces like metered bodies unable to learn dance helixing around you their song- neither taking or meaning anything to your own; the west-coast train leaves the power station to my right opening its three pounding mouths to the quiet drone of the fog and sky a sandwich and a coach full of drunks -communing -inside -memory and hail hits the window solidifying rapid water cocktails; nearing a station and familiar fields office, and tired sun letting your face know she only jokes when her tongue radiates later on when her body finally breaks; soaking the last dust a home within scent calling out to everything else; calling it a liar.

The beat down, down trodden Beatific, angelic hooligans On the page, on the road Driving down in search of   It The place where it is at In that jazz rhythm And bebop that began With a big bang and May end in a whimper But I don't think so No, I don't thinks so
