"monopolize" poems
Oh beautiful for specious lies
where Christless values reign;
for superficial battle cries
above the muted strain:
Diversity, diversity
God hides His face from thee—
and frown he should, while planethood
distracts humanity.
How sad it is when victim groups
monopolize the floor;
enabling the marginals
to agitate for more.
Diversity, diversity,
Your queer agenda rules—
with Balkanizing tendencies
imposed on witless tools.
Degenerate in decadence
the ailing eagle flies;
in spirals of irrelevance
through clouded toxic skies…
Diversity, diversity
the Left defines your terms;
the weakened body politic
grows sicker as it squirms.
Oh Lord we need a miracle
before the patient fails;
celestial intervention please
to purge us of what ails.
Diversity, diversity
We shall not overcome—
Unless the Lord reveal His word
twixt here and Kingdom Come…

Her eyes danced with the tiny flames that held a secret
each growing brighter when they urged to yank
the oxygen from her heart and let the sparks console
the deep holes bursting with pleasure
She dabbles in the waves of fire and brimstone
The honey dipped arms monopolize the dry neck
Squeezing harder, and harder
The metallic taste of rust shoves in front her teeth
Her eyes beg to fall out to stop witnessing the desecration
She tries not to let the secret out
but her decomposed body bows down to the forensic earth
Lying in her death bed she knows
She tasted the burnt coals
And forgot to tell Adam
She won't see him in heaven.

CRUSHED
A flower
Grows gracefully among the other
In a park where people discover
The love they have for one another
Full of thorn may the flower be
Hurt the fingers that try to touch it
Beauty it still to the eyes that see
It made the flower a lovely misfit

Along came a bee
Attracted by that plant of beauty
Magnetize by the sweetness of its honey
Charmed by the colour that it sees
Lone is the beauty for its majesty
Wishing to monopolize its purity
Crushed is the bee as it witness
A butterfly has taste its sweetness
Hopeless!

i'll give you a second chance
you say.
i say
don't,
i'll just sell it
for something better
mother taught me too well
to monopolize men's hearts
find another girl
who wants you
for your money

I still deny the rules and social ties of citizen spies
that i televise by shouting chanted anthems into the sky
yet to comply with the codes of conduct i defy
as you synthesize the number and size
i am careful not to compromise the lost light within my eyes
my cold gaze reflective of your demise
and i
scrutinize them until they realize they're being penalized for the lies
until maggots monopolize your corpse through your cries
until pulled away by the hissing of shadowed flies that fly into the lost light in my eyes
until my pupils cauterize
locking you inside
institutionalised
and i
am imprisoned in a prism of realism
as anti social collisions have me pulling my soul through verbal incisions
seeping radioactive emissions
from the legions of religions
from the season of rhyme without reason
failure to pay darkened tuitions is now treason
as catastrophic cataclysms lock me away in my primal visions
my verbal inflictions as though holy missions to infuse friction
smashing through my divided contradictions and feeding my addictions
good riddance

*Winter, tricky entrapper,
cozy cuddler, night fiddler
nuzzler, tantalizer, whistler
sharp nailed cruel lover
seasonal unfailing seductress,
sprawling on the bed cloth of December,
rolling over a few months either side,
I would never take her for granted.
I see her peep through
the window curtains,
spying at the warm days eyeing me
and waiting for her to climb down the steps;
she is jealous, as she wants to linger
playfully riding on my back.
she seeped in to my blood stream,
like the narcotic effect of grass,
before I know it happens
little by little to make me
forget my other loves completely
even without my permission.
Her wiliness is stealthily at work,
to monopolize me fully
separating me from others
yes, winter is cleverness clad in white.
Now, I am at her mercy, completely
my fingers, chest and lips strangely
enjoy the cold caresses, she gives each!
I realize, she has taken over-
my body and paints my mind's canvas,
with bubbling hallucinatory white,
she wants others tightly on her leash,
my other loves complain:
"you act just what is her will
you always wear her fragrance,
on you what an influence she wields!"
can I help when winter my darling,
brooks no excuses!
She exposes me before others
I look like a pusillanimous one,
cowering and cringing before her
none, even my true love, has
such absolute control over me
like she exerts, it's a secret
but true that I wriggle to get out,
of this white net she tenderly knitted-
for my comfort, which is,
pleasurable I think, to an extent,
yet difficult to accept at the same time.
Let us part before long, not to make
our relationship much complicated,
I'll wait, till the next season arrives
you are in my list of periodic partners,
I'll be ready with warmth in my heart,
for your eventful visit, that leaves
an impression far too long to ever forget.*

Twenty-one years of what exactly was I taught? I believed you two to be super heroes, or so I thought. Turned seventeen realized life's nothing but a thought.
I'm thinking I'm alive, but really I'm not.
I saw past materialism, chose to sin.
Now I hope I can be forgiven, look into the mirror I'm afraid of my reflection.
I'm not who I was.
I'm not where I am.
I don't know who I am.
I can't find where to stand.
Miss the days when blankets were stronger than Fort Knox, and money had one meaning: to buy train stations, and the chances we took were cards in a box and we didn't use our cars to hotbox but we matched a lot.
While momma was tryin' to teach me don't monopolize the TV that's just greedy. Noweverydaygoesbyspeedy and I don't have an effort to make myself peace treaties stuck in my self pity, wallowing like a wallaby with abstract gynecology Twitter-less no one follows me I hate my top eight. I've ruined the recipe but I still eat this teaming plate so I'm just left with a bitter taste.

Allow me to project my insides
Beside your ear.
Certainly you can
Determine how the
Emptiness within my body
Forgoes the exuberance
Gathered on the surface.
Haphazardly phrased fragments
I speak
Just to be heard, even faintly.
Knowing my words
Level worlds,
Monopolize hearts,
Negate negativity,
Omitted from the explicit.
Perfectly formed fractures
Qualm me as they
Reverberate through my body
Slithering their way
Through Timothy's
Universe.
Viciously assaulting
Where they fit best.
Xenobiotic and almost parasitic
Yarns about a
Zealous life not yet lived

Completed, unfinished
Meeting, never met
Craving the simplest flame
The unrequited touch
Tender, a sampling
Vivacious
Do I know you?
I would like to
I would love to
Extinction is near
I can smell it
The death of the neatly
And inky curved letters
The excitement
Of receiving
One day, perhaps already
Electric transmission
Will monopolize
Gone will be
The crisp letter
Neatly folded, tantalizing
Faintly scented, terrifying
You and I
Always, on and on
Forever will exchange
The pieces of paper
Which to others
Mean nothing
Yet to us
Are the everything of eternity.

We are living in an self-obsessed, self-serving nation
With citizens who only care about their own salvation
Is this what our heroes lost their lives for?
To see this nation crumble from wall to wall?
We have the freedom to choose but do we use it well?
We keep electing leaders who use lies to buy and sell
The system flawed founded on fallacy
They monopolize, advertise democracy
and yet our voices remain unheard
It's absurd, word for word
how we're lead by cheats and drug lords
I'm sick of seeing yellow people
wearing blindfolds on their eyes
reading yellow newspapers
believing yellow lies
Are you sure you're still thinking?
Maybe you're just one of them believing
the fairy tales they show us on TV
They profit from our own stupidity
conformity is what binds us to these chains
We have to recognize the fact that only one family reigns
We need to change lanes, start using our brains
and get rid of the ******* chains!
They're burning us slowly at the stake
Our lives they're prepared to take
This system was not built to defend us
but to rule us, brainwash and control us
So open your eyes and revolutionize
Assert your position, your freedom utilize!
Go forth and march at the gates
Fueled by fire, justice and rage
This generation should not take their ****
Stand against the norm and defy it
I'm sick of seeing yellow people
wearing blindfolds on their eyes
reading yellow newspapers
believing yellow lies
They won't let you go, They'll keep you in line
Because you let them **** you in the mind
They won't let you go, They'll keep you in line
Unless you stand up and open your mind
They won't let you win, They'll keep trapped
Because you keep taking their crap
They won't let you go, They'll keep you in line
Unless you stand up and open your mind

Hypnotize them
like Ginsberg
with his sync'd breaths
beating out a generation
of some self-entited
royalty mentality
generation
me
me
me
Status Update
to your favorite enemy
yourself
and the lack thereof
action taken
It's what do you stand for
and how do you want
to express it?
How do you want to feel?
And who do you want it to impact?
Because honestly
you're only in your head
anymore
when you think about obstacles
it's your reality
take a breath
and let out your own howl
to take it back
from the ********
trying to monopolize
on your own madness

Lives clash like cars crash
On black ice we spin
Cash my poker chips in
& Monopolize on my sins
Cause now she's my best friend
And we both win, ayo
Sometimes life's okay-o
What's a perfect day
Without a bad reference point
What's a beautiful soul
Without the bad men life appoints
For every cosmos that combusts.
Beauty coats the rust
For every argument we have
Her concerns cloud the fuss, ayo
Sometimes life's okay-o (ayo - ayo)
Karma's no buzz-kill for me
She straightens me out and opens my eyes to see
She keeps me aware of my lows,
Man, she keeps me on my toes.

there's something so selfish
in the way we try to monopolize and
control each other
the human existence is paradoxical
all our efforts slowly unravel
like cloth caught on sharp edges we
snag onto something
and never let go
I love you
don't you dare ignore me
I need the attention
pretend I'll never be alone
this is forever because
I said so
let's build a future together
and destroy everything
in our way
because all that matters is that
we're happy
who cares what anybody else says
you only need me
and these bed sheets
give up and surrender
to that fleeting ecstasy we encounter
together we can feel
as if we can accomplish anything
and be content
with only each other
because that's love to us

twitchley body funds my eyesight,
endorsing social security of the mind--
the free market of my inhibitions deci
des to monopolize the rights to my soul
as a crown corporation but we'll nationa
lize again again with the help of shock d
octrine-- flinching in the light you called
the office of internal affairs regarding mat
ters of the heart, but but but it was left to
open classrooms to tell you what and how
to live yer life, and nothing more. who kee
ps anyone different? who holds them to sim
ilar? what makes me no h2o and what mak
es you no granite? because last night we cal
led you drunk and you called us sober. no
one picked up the comments and no one pic
ked up the phone. crippled and meaningless,
nihilism felt obliged to die. i felt obliged to die.
i felt obliged to leave myself alone, or risk seei
ng me again.
the noose cooperated and collapsed and collapsed,
and collapsed.
this is not a suicide note. it is a sidenote
and you will find me beating deep inside yer
chest.

Wolf whistles
And crocodile smiles
Acting like an animal
has never been my style.
I don't
Cat call
or creeper crawl
I'd rather slither on into your mind
I want to
Haunt you
Until you're mine
All Mine
I don't need
to violate your body
To consume
all of your thoughts
I don't need
to victimize you
To dominate you
Or be your God.
I'll attach me to each memory
You cherish in your life
Your mind I will monopolize
And then the world before your eyes
You set me ablaze
So you'll be my prey
Until I'm the central figure
of your story
Don't be afraid -
But there are many ways
A man can be
Predatory

I gave him a name
NB
Because it's everything Negative aBout me
#NegativeHypothetical
Idea:
You create more resistance than there really is.
Now what exactly does that mean?
Think about your
greatest goal
grandest dream
And can you tell me
Everything that could potentially go wrong
All the reasons why you don't do it
Your probabilities of failure + humiliation
And all the pain that would bring?
… probably.
But, now
can you
tell me:
The last three good things
that happened to you this week?
Doesn't need to be large,
just enough to make you smile.
I reckon
or at least
I know
when it comes to me
I can tell you the former
over the latter
much more
easily.
And isn't that a shame?
That NB
found a way to monopolize
my thoughts
and thus, my reality.
That was until I gave him a name
And decided to do away with
Western paranoia. Because
we all hear "voices" in our head,
and I think that embracing those
ideas and showing them some
attention… rather than burying
them with a doubtful "that's stupid,"
is the path to lightening up
and letting go of negativity.
A good first step in cultivating
peace. And managing reality.

my silent friend
22
I let you in
more certain than my shadow
wherever I go you follow
even when I feel empty
aching
hollow
I know one thing for certain
in this life I may be hurting
my suffering is worth it
pain so bittersweet
a fate I cannot wait to meet
significant meaning in ordinary beings
the larger picture we simply aren't perceiving
the faintest brush stoke has infinite meaning
so I retrace the lines
trying to find
the creator of this grand design
are we of such simple minds
that we would try to define the beginning of time
come to find out
we've been ignoring all signs
underneath deception lies
the youth are preaching you don't hear our cries
too focused on the highs instead of the why's
turned to my inner eye
committed mental homicide what felt like a thousand times
came to a compromise
I hypothesize They monopolize our psyche
powers that be remain unseen
blame it on the fluoride
but ****
that's just me
getting off-key
this faith thing is new you see
used to feel like I was lost at sea
and I must admit
sometimes it still feels that way
not totally there
blending into shades of grey
f a ding away
you showed me better days lie beyond the haze
I have to push through
I don't do it for me
I do it for you
sincerely
truly

I sit beside you as you sleep
With my mind racing back and forth.
While you lay in restful slumber
I cannot stop my thoughts from winging
Left, right, up, down
Until I'm driven to leap out of bed.
You turn, disturbed by my jolt
But no less dormant than you were before.
As I look at your restful face,
Tired eyes, soft lips,
I envy the cushioning you feel
As the weight of the world is caught by a mattress.
I try, as you do, to let my body be heavy
And welcome dreams to monopolize this cacophony.
Turn left, turn right,
Swinging myself until my arms rest gently on your waist.
My breath spills onto the back of your neck
As I slide my hand to wrap around your body.
Suddenly, I feel the mattress catch me.
My thoughts have stopped, I'm calm once more.

Play scrabble with our whispered words
Cards, you are my king
Play hide and seek
I hope you hide so well
I can find you only
In the folds of our sheets
Twister
With the tangible tangle of our lives
Intertwined
Monopoly, monopolize
Each curl of your lip
Is mine
Each muffled cry
Of love
Of pain
Of emotion
And I'm still learning to feel
The ins and outs of your games
To entertain you
In any
(Every)
Way I can

The profit of greed
Is the only thing they need.
Man want more,
For the seeds they sow.
I profit more,
Till I start to pour.
I take others lives,
To feed my fearful lies.
I take what’s free,
To monopolize and fee.
Oh, you think you’re free?
I lock, no key.
What further more,
Shall suffer need.
I take before,
Your life, I feed.
They do this more,
The plagues saturate the poor.
All I need is myself alone,
To finally destroy humanities stone.

Concrete blood
Slogs through my
Asphalt body
Silent horror films
Cycle, ad infinitum, through my
Frenzied mind
My comprehension
Entangles truth
With authentic illusions
My hypothesis
Roars to life
In the eyes of strangers
Their expression
Or lack thereof
Contains damning evidence
Simple tasks
Once without challenge
Monopolize my agenda
My adversary
Transformed into Achilles
Receives leg armor
My vigor
Once formidable
Goes on sabbatical
My bed
Once a place of solace
Becomes my entire world

You took me to a place that helped me to forget all the battles I've been fighting and the buzzing in my head. We stood on rooftops overlooking city lights. I wanted to say I need you but you were taking in the sights.
We stood at the center of the universe where you couldn't hear a thing. All I wanted was to kiss you as we listened for the trains to sing. About trials and tribulations with life on a one way track. About the beauty in their graffiti and how they're never coming back.
We can blame our behavior on the liquor if it helps you to not be conflicted. If it somehow makes you feel better because those feelings are restricted. Just say you'll stop in later on and monopolize all my time 100 east second street if you're ready to be mine. 100 east second street if you're ready to be mine.

No matter the weather I depend on you forever, always with you making bank together.
I wish not to see you go, but I'm here to let you know that, no business too strong, no sale too low, I’ll talk the talk and win boardwalk.
You may raise the steaks, eat 'em with a shake, but I'll be the one to monopolize park place.
Every day, we continue to strive, simply because we are alive with a passion of conquest that will put any limit to the test.
Don’t tell us your rules, you fool, we pull the strings, so watch what you say, or everything you know of will go missing.
Beware, our empire expands at a rate, which will never yield any capitalist mistakes, because at our core, we are omnipotent nationalists.
We have climbed the steps, to the very top of the throne, and mark my words — the world will be ours to own.

I guess what they say about “Out of sight, out of mind” is false, or maybe it’s just me. Time has elapsed since you left but in my mind you are still among my fondest memories.
I have given you too much airplay in my mind, you monopolize my thoughts ten times out of nine. I feel weak around you, the way superman is around the green kryptonite stone. Wish I could have you, if chance would allow coz you are bad and you know it, you make cupid shoot me like aww!!!
Maybe this is loneliness talking or maybe am acting on impulse, whatever it is, I can’t deny that I want you. Now this aint that Romeo and Juliet fairytale kind of love that you see in movie screens or whatever love songs musicians sing, to me that ain't true. However, I have a genuine interest in you because of the way you make me feel and the way I feel about you, this much is true.
I hate the fact that am indecisive, probably u do too. Am a Libra man, always weighing out things, trying to find a balance between good and bad. But if my past experiences are anything to go by, I know that it’s a risky thing, love is. A risk worth taking. See you… you make me want to throw away my pros and cons and fall in blind, coz am already falling for you and the crazy things you do.
Wish I could move on… the way boys usually do but see I … I don’t want to. I know that feelings sometimes fade and things sometimes change but I would love to try. Wish I could bribe time, love and chance, so that I could have my way with you. It’s not nice to toy with feelings and I don’t intend to. I realized am a man of many wishes but if I had a genie, hypothetical, I would spend all my wishes wishing for true happiness.

Can I keep you?
I want to keep your smile
Your kindness
Your laugh
Your humor
Your heart
Your everything
Can I keep you?
Keep you in my head
My heart
My dreams
My presence
My life
My world
I guess the question really is
Will you let me keep you?
Let me see your smile
Know your kindness
Hear your laugh
Get your humor
Be in your heart
Love your everything
Can I keep you?
I ask because
I think its only fair
You already keep me
You have thoughts
Control my heart
Haunt my dreams
Monopolize my presence
Dominate my life
Are my world
So I ask only once more
Can I keep you?
