"preachers" poems
there is enough treachery, hatred violence absurdity in the average human being to supply any given army on any given day and the best at ****** are those who preach against it and the best at hate are those who preach love and the best at war finally are those who preach peace those who preach god, need god those who preach peace do not have peace those who preach peace do not have love beware the preachers beware the knowers beware those who are always reading books beware those who either detest poverty or are proud of it beware those quick to praise for they need praise in return beware those who are quick to censor they are afraid of what they do not know beware those who seek constant crowds for they are nothing alone beware the average man the average woman beware their love, their love is average seeks average but there is genius in their hatred there is enough genius in their hatred to **** you to **** anybody not wanting solitude not understanding solitude they will attempt to destroy anything that differs from their own not being able to create art they will not understand art they will consider their failure as creators only as a failure of the world not being able to love fully they will believe your love incomplete and then they will hate you and their hatred will be perfect like a shining diamond like a knife like a mountain like a tiger like hemlock their finest art

The Genius Of The Crowd
lines cut heavy on a button stretched brow thick rubber shoes and dragon canes fill out the closet floor gospel sounds and narratives (drowned) apparitions set sullenly amid voices from the past finger pins and crosswords find the favor list point men and preachers tip up their tuscany caps twitching and sign gazing with spectacles held firm recurring evening news and beadledom views clappers and caregivers raise a crooked foot grips and rockers settle in on the front porch gertrude grimaces at an untimely turn as the gooseberry pie (with a smidgen of cloves) chills by the night watch

the golden years
How this **** fable instructs And mocks! Here's the parody of that moral mousetrap Set in the proverbs stitched on samplers Approving chased girls who get them to a tree And put on bark's nun-black Habit which deflects All amorous arrows. For to sheathe the ****** shape In a scabbard of wood baffles pursuers, Whether goat-thighed or god-haloed. Ever since that first Daphne Switched her incomparable back For a bay-tree hide, respect's Twined to her hard limbs like ivy: the puritan lip Cries: 'Celebrate Syrinx whose demurs Won her the frog-colored skin, pale pith and watery Bed of a reed. Look: Pine-needle armor protects Pitys from Pan's assault! And though age drop Their leafy crowns, their fame soars, Eclipsing Eva, Cleo and Helen of Troy: For which of those would speak For a fashion that constricts White bodies in a wooden girdle, root to top Unfaced, unformed, the nipple-flowers Shrouded to suckle darkness? Only they Who keep cool and holy make A sanctum to attract Green virgins, consecrating limb and lip To chastity's service: like prophets, like preachers, They descant on the serene and seraphic beauty Of virgins for virginity's sake.' Be certain some such pact's Been struck to keep all glory in the grip Of ugly spinsters and barren sirs As you etch on the inner window of your eye This ****** on her rack: She, ripe and unplucked, 's Lain splayed too long in the tortuous boughs: overripe Now, dour-faced, her fingers Stiff as twigs, her body woodenly Askew, she'll ache and wake Though doomsday bud. Neglect's Given her lips that lemon-tasting droop: Untongued, all beauty's bright juice sours. Tree-twist will ape this gross anatomy Till irony's bough break.

a dark place, dingy and cobwebbed: the forlorn basement below an unfinished house; there is no hope of an HGTV house-flip or a makeover or the sort of boring/heartwarming story where some nice white family —or conveniently diverse— sets up shop, smash-cuts through a renovation and gets their dream home. no, the house will remain gloomy, this basement filled with emptiness; no one desires to come through the door, no one except the tweakers and the vagabonds and the runaways, the ****** and the pimps, the celebrities and psychiatrists, the demons and the ghosts, the preachers and their seething congregations of judgmental ****** that live across the street, and the ***** teenagers hunting for a place to try out *** no cleaning crew or maid service or organize-your-life guru or even the most experienced of all the world’s janitors could enter this house and clean it or beautify this basement or disenfranchise the squatters within; the neighbors just try and demolish it every chance they get, to rid their sparkling, spotless community of this disgusting eyesore.

When I was a windy boy and a bit And the black spit of the chapel fold, (Sighed the old ram rod, dying of women), I tiptoed shy in the gooseberry wood, The rude owl cried like a tell-tale *** I skipped in a blush as the big girls rolled Nine-pin down on donkey's common, And on seesaw sunday nights I wooed Whoever I would with my wicked eyes, The whole of the moon I could love and leave All the green leaved little weddings' wives In the coal black bush and let them grieve. When I was a gusty man and a half And the black beast of the beetles' pews (Sighed the old ram rod, dying of ******* Not a boy and a bit in the wick- Dipping moon and drunk as a new dropped calf, I whistled all night in the twisted flues, Midwives grew in the midnight ditches, And the sizzling sheets of the town cried, Quick!- Whenever I dove in a breast high shoal, Wherever I ramped in the clover quilts, Whatsoever I did in the coal- Black night, I left my quivering prints. When I was a man you could call a man And the black cross of the holy house, (Sighed the old ram rod, dying of welcome), Brandy and ripe in my bright, bass prime, No springtailed tom in the red hot town With every simmering woman his mouse But a hillocky bull in the swelter Of summer come in his great good time To the sultry, biding herds, I said, Oh, time enough when the blood runs cold, And I lie down but to sleep in bed, For my sulking, skulking, coal black soul! When I was half the man I was And serve me right as the preachers warn, (Sighed the old ram rod, dying of downfall), No flailing calf or cat in a flame Or hickory bull in milky grass But a black sheep with a crumpled horn, At last the soul from its foul mousehole Slunk pouting out when the limp time came; And I gave my soul a blind, slashed eye, Gristle and rind, and a roarers' life, And I shoved it into the coal black sky To find a woman's soul for a wife. Now I am a man no more no more And a black reward for a roaring life, (Sighed the old ram rod, dying of strangers), Tidy and cursed in my dove cooed room I lie down thin and hear the good bells jaw-- For, oh, my soul found a sunday wife In the coal black sky and she bore angels! Harpies around me out of her womb! Chastity prays for me, piety sings, Innocence sweetens my last black breath, Modesty hides my thighs in her wings, And all the deadly virtues plague my death!

I keep telling myself that if I lay here long enough something's gonna swallow me and it's not because my heads been somewhere else lately it's because I sleep on the floor. Even when I don't. I sleep on the floor. The mattress has holes because mattresses get holes sometimes when you don't have blankets to cover them and you're too cold to put the cigarette out on anything other than yourself or what you have to sleep on now. Last year I'd spend every day in bed with a little bag full of drugs and a map to the bathtub just in case I forget what I took two seconds ago because I think it happened yesterday and I take more. And then I'm shaking, not because I'm cold this time. I'm seizing and nobody is home because everybody leaves me for preachers or church or a campfire or someone prettier. This part is foggy. I remember again a bathtub, an empty hotel bathtub and my mother and I say mama did you leave the door open on purpose and she says I went to church. She went to church. She went to church. Bathtub. I sleep there. Even though we are in a hotel I sleep in the bathtub because I like the way my anxiety sounds when it echoes. I like to hear it. Play it back. Memory. Back to the only house I've ever lived in alone. I'm seizing. I stop. I hear you. I somehow forget that it's 4 in the morning. It's my birthday now, nobody knows but it's my birthday now, teen years behind me but still a teen year drug addiction and you tell me to look out the window so I do. And the sky's on fire. I don't fall asleep again for three days but the sky's on fire. And so am I. And so are you. And I don't want to go back to the place I go to when I see the faces but I put myself here. I push and push and push and then I act surprised when something falls off the edge. I'm alone now. Even when I'm not. I'm alone.

How can we not feel Adam’s pain See the features of this creature Tortured by people’s disdain And not weep at his wretched state Frankenstein’s creation From his strange life equation Electrical innovation In that once marvelous now dead age How can we not feel Adam’s pain The child with no real name Only a borrowed nomenclature To define his human inhumane nature Torches and Preachers calling for his head Love denied never finding peace This so called beast could rip us to shreds Tear our flesh asunder and squash our heads But when he speaks racked with life’s pain A horridly embellished mirror of my own My defenses break opening the floodgate And the monster makes me cry

Frankenstein's Child
Upon this wizened, ancient lyre I'll sing the ballad of the Roses, till I tire Each one of them a blessing true Working diligently for the life of every one of you A true Rose is a beating heart In which lust for justice bubbles, brews In Parliament, they call them Labour But a Rose is anybody whose heart harbours A love of life and all it's creatures Considering the workers to be teachers Imparting the wisdom of their experience Marx, the most exquisite of their preachers His words shine bright and cast a light Upon the path of destiny, he predicts workers delight But not before the struggle, toil The quest for righteousness embroils All human hearts in earnest endeavour Across the worlds sands and soils O rustic Roses, I worship and adore you If you have time, allow me to implore you To see yourselves the way I see Creatures of brilliance and majesty Who devote themselves to the truest fight For workers wage and workers right Long may your light shine at me

Ballad Of The Roses
six deadbolts and a loaded gun tucked beneath your pillow, what are you waiting for love? is it the rapists or the sociopaths or the criminally insane come to shatter your suburban dream? they may come for you, or maybe you are one of them. it doesn't really matter anyways, you'll still rise when you rise, laugh when you can and never, ever cry- that would make you human. you'll still be seeking answers if you're lucky and pretending to know what love is in a dark, dark place. everything will go to **** on its own. be wary not of the sociopaths but the preachers of god, of love, of war, be wary of your own mind.

on a dull day in november
The demon scratches me I bite him back The demon pushes me I spit in his face with a smack The demon taunts me I calleth him out by name They hate their name called Don't wanna be recognized for the flame The demon shows false affections I giveth him hate The demons a smiler as he latches to me I'll kick him to hells gate The demons find me downtimes Though with God I shalt win Demons love misery To seeith one in sin Demons are smelly Like all the dump trucks on the earth Times ten Demons haveth enemies They hate even their own kind They haveth none kin Demons haveth a date With Satan in the fire They'll turn thou on with lust For thou they do admire Demons hast hurt me They've tried to bring me to mine death Soo many health issues I know tis not me Them The demons hast entered mine family From the lives we didst choose! They entered by portals Between good and bad souls They came and come as orbs Spirtual energy Trapped to a distance God won't let them get to close to me They always want more They show themselves now and then They'll portray themselves as good souls Wherein its all pretend The demons speaketh in mine bathroom They hide out in the closets Parched behind mine bedroom wardrobe Spies as I sleepeth They want mine bright soul It's full of massive glowing energy They know it as I'm told So to bad because their not me They made a big mistake Turning away from God Now their outcast losers Fate of hell and grud!! They'll soon be in chains and shackles So they cause pain now whilst here on earth They come in all shapes and sizes as I've heard from many others Psychics Life after death (experiences) And from preachers Pastors and others They come large Small Animal like Mauled They come stinky Scaly Nothing thou shalt imagine Couldn't fathom Their everywhere City streets Malls Gyms Stalls Homes Air First heaven Second heaven Hell Everywhere Yet these demons cannot taketh me They knoweth I'm gods light So demon get hence from me.... Go burn in thine own fright!!!!

The demon scratches me I bite him back The demon pushes me I spit in his face with a smack The demon taunts me I calleth him out by name They hate their name called Don't wanna be recognized for the flame The demon shows false affections I giveth him hate The demons a smiler as he latches to me I'll kick him to hells gate The demons find me downtimes Though with God I shalt win Demons love misery To seeith one in sin Demons are smelly Like all the dump trucks on the earth Times ten Demons haveth enemies They hate even their own kind They haveth none kin Demons haveth a date With Satan in the fire They'll turn thou on with lust For thou they do admire Demons hast hurt me They've tried to bring me to mine death Soo many health issues I know tis not me Them The demons hast entered mine family From the lives we didst choose! They entered by portals Between good and bad souls They came and come as orbs Spirtual energy Trapped to a distance God won't let them get to close to me They always want more They show themselves now and then They'll portray themselves as good souls Wherein its all pretend The demons speaketh in mine bathroom They hide out in the closets Parched behind mine bedroom wardrobe Spies as I sleepeth They want mine bright soul It's full of massive glowing energy They know it as I'm told So to bad because their not me They made a big mistake Turning away from God Now their outcast losers Fate of hell and grud!! They'll soon be in chains and shackles So they cause pain now whilst here on earth They come in all shapes and sizes as I've heard from many others Psychics Life after death (experiences) And from preachers Pastors and others They come large Small Animal like Mauled They come stinky Scaly Nothing thou shalt imagine Couldn't fathom Their everywhere City streets Malls Gyms Stalls Homes Air First heaven Second heaven Hell Everywhere Yet these demons cannot taketh me They knoweth I'm gods light So demon get hence from me.... Go burn in thine own fright!!!!

The crack in the window brings the light, beautiful to many, vile to to my sight. Can I sleep? don't remind me of what I must do. Leave me my silence, leave me my grace,leave this ***** grimy disgrace. We all should lie in obscurity. The cracks in the pavement wont break her back. If you fall , get up, if you don't break your neck. You can make it through.                                       Leave me in the distance. Recognize the light. Walk paths of fear, and acceptance takes flight. Things cloudy eyes may not see. Leave me in the distance, I'm not here to race, another dawn the darkness breaks In my opponents I see teachers, family, monsters, men and preachers. Lie in the shadows, or a darkened room. Lie in the twilight, to embrace the light. Does anything have one side? how much does it take? This is just a play, can you make it through. We all hold the pen in our hands, we all sing the tune many stories will be told, many pouring out their soul, was it love or rock and roll?

sack of jaweea
I've often noticed numerous features Many of which are on gardeners and bakers and preachers But I have never even mentioned my own Many peers of mine point them out to the teachers To be silent and observe is what I am prone I find listening and watching much more meticulous I realise they don't understand how I stay quiet during the day For they all speak and sound quite ridiculous I think they may soon learn of what they say At least I hope, I can never say for sure when they may

Watchful Eyes
This is not a love poem. That was not love I fell in. Rose covered graves, is it death that I'm smelling ? Fate knocks on my door and I don't bat an eye. "Fate can't be ignored !" well neither can I. Winter spread across the world as the days went by. My men fled the lands to catch the last of the tides. Preachers deep in prayer, seek refuge from the skies. Monasteries abandoned in pursuit of the tides. Drowning in herself, in service to her pride. Not a law left unbroken now show me one I can abide. Mountains took shelter where I chose to reside. Born to the storms that cast terror upon the tides. The storms called my name until I saw it in those eyes. Disbelief had all but claimed what I'd salvaged from the tides.

The Last of the Tides.
What's going on?! With these beautiful dark women bleaching their skin and hiding their features. Reaching to a point of shame from these beautiful creatures. They don't believe what the bible says, so they're their own preachers. While God designed them to be beautiful queens, living the unachieved dreams of their african ancestors. Daughters of Africa, daughters of slaves. Free in the physical, but mentally chained. Darkened by the morning sun. Brightened by the evening moon. A smile that captivates homeless hearts. A strenght that fascinates hopeless minds. Dear beautiful black woman, Know who you are. Black is beautiful. Black means strong. Skin tone that matches the earth. Curves that catches the eye. Walk like a goddess and talk like a queen. When you enter a room let your appearance speak, let your presence prophesy: "I'm worthy, I'm proud and I'm beautiful"

The beauty unseen
Spriralling down profanity Standing on the cliff of blasphemy She looked for angels inside of demons Where God's decree was nowhere to be found She had faith in what she saw Preachers and believers Insolence and deciept Their words of judgement reaching out to cage her in Threatening punishment Imploring her to forgiveness God, there is sacrilege This world is rampant with hypocrites Her heart is full of your love Yet desires the forbidden The unsanctioned It harms not a soul, not even her own But holds her happiness down the one path That strays just a little from the rules God, who loves the impious preachers and believers The patient and forgiving Can these two paths not become one? Where the blood in her veins runs by His decree Every breath she takes is with His grace

Preachers and Believers
A ripened sky splits and bleeds Mangled reds and blacks; An instant melts as heat from Clustered newborn suns -- Blistered from the wounds -- Collects and beams 1600 feet Earthwards from Fat Man's Plump and pompous underbelly. The pure-light pin-prick stopped The city's pulse for a moment; Collecting remnants of the Beating hearts (of artists, Doctors, students, parents, Preachers, rats, and peasants) To plant on rotting soil - A hellish fungal pustule. The swelling abscess breathed But once and burst to Ripple excess outwards Soaking up the landscape; Ingesting miles and spewing Spores towards septic skies to form A mass of mushroomed Might and pyrrhic triumph.

******* white people; hide their racism behind vapid "opinion". ******* white folks will argue you can't argue with results and numbers because white people can strip race from the issue and swear it's "equal". White people without culture or identity, strip it from others. Call you naked as they strut in stolen clothing. Full of silicone. **** with white people, find out they know the struggle by the article. They can sweat big stuff, but their racism is in the cracks and seeping. Disappointingly, you can't trust white people for **** not even me. Not Bush, not Clinton, Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders, ******* Macklemore, Not Bill O'Reilly, and not Jon Stewart, and not viral feminists/ white feminism, Taylor Swift's white sisterhood, their artists, music, writers, poetry, actors, authors, painters and sculptors and bloggers, their politicians, obviously, but also their lawyers, doctors, their engineers and scientists and businesses, economists or pastors, preachers, religion, programmers, products, video games and novels; They will let you down. The rich or the poor, it really doesn't matter. They will let you down.

**** White Folk."
Tingly under the daisies; Glassy-eyed, glazed, greasy; Shaking, shivering, shuddering, Wishing, wandering, whimpering, Westernizing— Romanizing— Constitutionalizing— Institutionalizing— Perpetually searching And dying And living, Watching Death survive And scythe the frolickers, The prancers, The rompers, The merrymakers. A rose clamped between his Grinning teeth glistens brightly, And he dances so joyously. “Yes!” say the naysayers, Confused are the soothsayers, Lost are the cartographers. Oh, Utopia! The monks are extravagant; The meditations are a farce! The preachers are beggars And swindlers and chargers, And Machiavelli fulfills his wishes! Babies are stillborn, stabbed, and Ritualistically sacrificed, And their blood is spilled, drunk, Slathered over the ***** man. The evangelists scream and lie: “You are all predestined to die!” Oh, hail Utopia! Wedded are the girls to the girls; Wedded are the boys to the boys; Wedded is Death to Death, Life to Life, And Life to Death. Wedded are the living to the existent. And the milking babes are slaughtered Ceremoniously, Surreptitiously, Ostentatiously. Oh, hail great Utopia! We are all dead and unintelligent: Laugh, laugh, Einstein, at your Stupidity. Laugh, laugh, Temple Grandin at Your retardation. Laugh, laugh, laugh! Look at the sluggard, thou ant; Look at the boy, sobbing wolf; Aesop was drunk, Aristotle was delusional, Michelangelo was blind, Beethoven could hear, Poe was sane. And I can't read. They ramble, I watch. They sleep, I watch. They dream, I watch. They sleep-talk, I watch. They scream, I watch. They choke, I watch. They suffocate, I watch. Stone-faced, I stare; Raspingly, I breathe; Uncontrollably, I twitch; Inwardly, I rage. I hope you die, I hope you die. I hope you bleed, I hope you die. I want you begging and crying, I want you blubbering at my feet, I want you gnashing at my ankles, I want you writhing in pain, I want your arm twisted off, Cracking with the snapping sinews, I want your beating heart in my hands, I want your genitals uprooted and stuffed in your throat, I want your stomach so I can eat the still-digesting food, I want your shrunken head and I want to force my thumbs into your unblinking eyes and I want to tear your face in two and I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die.
