"radical" poems
Oh my it is great... to have this headache... after trying to understand what numbers are real and fake I don't see how this will help me through my course of life Will I ever be trying to see what the angle of a chair is again? or will I ever need to use how to find a hypotenuse? I've thought and thought for a very long time and came up with a list of jobs that would ever need algebra Math teacher Crazy Math obsessor Architect Carpenter scientist (on occasion) contractor Someone who builds triangles kite maker someone who makes graphs salesman/women Too bad that isn't any of the jobs I ever want... Algebra... oh how my head burns and I'm sorry if you like it I don't mean to offend but Algebra just aint my jam I'd rather be painting or writing or singing I'd rather be strumming(my guitar) be sleeping or eating I'd rather go play soccer or basketball or ski Really I'd just rather be free free of the confusion I feel after class of the helplessness that I have towards math Oh how am I going to survive??? PS. I still have to live through geometry (I **** at shapes) pre calculous (I don't even know what that is) and calculous (Ugh *** I hope you enjoyed my "radical" poem!

When people ask if you're weird, or tell you, or want to believe themselves strange, eclectic, or odd. It's vaguely disgusting to me, cringeworthy in a mild degree. We think we're so different, but we are not. The individualism of people should be and is comparable to the individualism of ants. Who looks at the anthill and sees something in particular, something behaving specifically "uniquely" from every ant and every anthill? Why do you believe in yourself? I see this, as a conversation about depression, and your partner does not respect you but instead wants to tell you how they feel worse, or have it worse, or "understand" more about the affirmation or situation. A person looking for individuality through a lens of misery, anguish, and sadness, is truly alone in their minds, and missing the reality that these depressions exist without them. The statement, "you are not alone" is an attack, or an offense to these people, because it says "you are not as unique as you think", it strips them of their identity and individuality. This is true of many ideologies and affirmations. I quit individuality, this constricting sense of holding everything of yourself in center, to be a drop in the whole, something fluid. If you split your affirmations from yourself, you'd see we're all the same; Affirmations are just currents in the ocean. I look at myself; and people see a man, a radical feminist, and sometimes a musician. As labels, these each have their own presupposed notions, [especially, "man" or "male" in the patriarchal gaze] which hardly, if ever, are true, but as affirmations, when I consent to using them, these are no longer stereotypes that constrain me, but similarities that I realize I can embrace or shut out in others. Affirmations do not make me more unique, but similar to more people. If I remove these affirmations to try and get to my "true" center, my purest form of self, I see I am without meaning. This is why I quit Individuality.

A Muslim boy with a clock Is seen as a terrorist with a glock Maybe i'm right, maybe i'm wrong But if he were White, Asian, Hispanic or even Pacific Islander Nobody would of suspected anything. When are we going to stop fearing an entire race for only a portion radical and illogical ways of treating others? I don't tolerate people who behead others if they don't agree with their religion I don't agree with the repressive governments that control everyone and stone them for minor misdemeanors There are good men out there fighting this evil that has plagued their homelands I'm all for ending terrorism of all kinds But let's stop terrorism of innocents too Sure, i'm afraid of what the radicals will do to their own people, my people and the rest of the world But i'll be dammed if i treated somebody from the Middle East like a monster when i don't even know who they are If it wasn't for a Middle Eastern girl The Syrians girls wouldn't have an improved education If it wasn't for a Middle Eastern man fending off the Taliban and risking his entire village to keep Marcus Littrell alive He would of been KIA a long time ago. What about the ones who fought and died for America? Nobody ever mentions them The media wants me to hate them all, but i laugh and shake my head Warped minds trying to warp others I only see the ones who want to do us harm, and the ones who want to live peacefully and away from a life of hell Brothers and sisters, just a different culture and skin color I'm sorry if America seems racist or hateful, but i'm proud to be the one who throws those two words in the trash Because i'm not afraid to speak my mind And i welcome everyone here America is everyone's home. If only the Soviet Union never invaded Afghanistan If only the people were not scared To be free like America. Unity for all, Religious differences and Cultures alike. I hope one day a Muslim man or Woman can walk down an American street without being labeled as a terrorist. I hope one day these repressive governments fall into the hands of democracy And we start the Age of Unity again.

every time we fall in love, they call it trite, a false fairy tale. love is weak. and weak ain't trending no more. every time we speak our mind, they tell us to shut up, too young to have an opinion. the youth is unreliable, too many fresh hormones. every time we stand up straight, they cross us, crucify us. acquiescing is appropriate, they gift certificates in frames for that. every time we subscribe to a higher code of ethics, they call us radical, salivate, and spectate as we are torn asunder by lions. love should never transcend national pride, here it's guns, god, no homosexuals or mexicans all the time. if i make a stand, and you make a stand, and the dominoes begin to fall, if i inspire a dozen, and you inspire a thousand, the gears will grind, the tide will turn, the lions will all be too full, and they surely will run out of nails, before they've crossed every single one of us.

If it weren't for the consistent badgering of radical america your roots your nourishment would enrich the very soil our ancestors turned, but pests and pesticides alike have yet to be relinquished, "autumn" has consumed us as smiles fall-- the hazmat suits leave us bare to the weathered reality, except you, umbrellas and storm sheltered words nurture loved ones -- you are worth the wait, with conflict resolve you take off your helmet and gear we are not prepared for such violence -- shielded eyes from falsified truths you bloom and blush, you are beautiful, a perfect storm your wrath the 5th element -- uncontrollable you are free as "winter" resides on your shoulder, she is awakened and unapologetic, a God among us, frightfully we are safe we have waited for your wine to runneth and pop goes the cork, as the war begins your throne you sit with confidence.

(daughter of Egyptian Goddess Sekhmet) the un-Suppression of the Black Woman pt.2
she is a very naughty girl she never follows policy to the letter she always does the wrong thing she needs some discipline she's proficient at defying the law she knows not how to get the message she doesn't listen intently enough she fills many charge sheets with her misconduct she is a girl with a streak of wickedness she has all the hallmarks of someone who is naughty I speak of Ursula in the above list of bad deeds and there is a hope that her bad deeds can be quickly remedied the hand of an authority figure will bring her back into line as she has too often strayed from that line whence appropriate corrections are implemented all her behavioral problems shall be circumvented then and only then a change will eventuate and she'll no longer be showing her bad traits really naughty girls such as Ursula can become more like a pleasant seaside peninsula watching her radical transformation shall be a sight to see so we'll keep our eyes focused on what Ursula shall soon be

Naughty Girl
A small skiff drifted in the harbor guided by the eazy oars of a fisherman standing in the hull to better view the shimmering reflection of the orange circle hovering overhead- dancing with the gentle waves in the morning mist. Monet had to name it something so he called it what it was:           "Impression, soleil levant." A critic, wanting poison for his pen, seized Monet's title to squeeze a lethal dose into the radical veins of the artist and his fellows of the gallery           (Renoir, Pissarro, Cezanne). With scathing indignation he dubbed the lot of them,            "Mere Impressionists." The label endures (minus one word) but how many recall or care to know the righteous critic's name?

Monet's Harbor Sunrise
Emerging economies. What they’re emerging from I don’t know. My guess, the depths of hell. From the frying pan, right into the fire, or worse; a well. A deep hole stronger than gravity, the force. To be forever under the thumb of remorse. A modern era of endless acts, policies and bla bla bla. Shut up with all your platitudes. I see what’s really going on. Aha! You speak of sustainable development. Nice to know that you’ve led by example. Carried the mantle for all these years. Centuries of ruthlessness, now veiled in sheep’s clothing. But you won’t shut up. Because you don’t speak. You never have. You just do. Each day that goes by, you carry on anew. Behind all the talk of hope, equality and more progress, it seems the wolves are lurking. Cooking up the next tool to subdue countless. This time, not behind closed doors. But in plain sight. It’s scary to imagine such spite. Each year that goes by it becomes clearer that you never cared. You sold guns, drugs and all kinds of war. And each time, you kept coming back for more. You’ve built up antibodies that ensure your survival. But sometimes I wonder if you’re alive at all. But what do I know? Maybe you’re more alive than ever. Doing what you do best but always more clever. That not even the most stable of geniuses can evade your pressure. A strong enough foundation that each break makes you stronger, So strong that not even the Gremlin can take you under.   Against this dreary background, foregrounded is nothing short of magical. Beyond hope, prayers or a thoughtless radical. Or maybe this is all just fake outrage. An attempt to evade the boredom of this endless monotony and baggage. Or maybe, the term is out of date. Like every other, that makes me increasingly more irate. In which case, this poem is at least ten years late. Or maybe there are too many maybes’. And I’m perfectly suited for this time of vague uneasiness and indifference. In which case, my imagination probably needs more sociology and less a lesson in rhymes.

☮ ☮ ☮ **Society needs more Social Justice. Humanity needs peaceworkers.** Peace and Social Justice must be promoted aggressively. There are inequities that must be addressed. Power is not equally distributed. Neither are resources or wealth. Neither are poetic gifts or vision equitably distributed. Unearned privilege is rampant. Poetry must confront this global crisis of capitalist exploitation and manipulation. Poetry must speak to the masses. Poetry must radicalize and inform consciousness to new levels of social change. Marginalized citizens must be empowered. All ****** gender-based, racial, religious, age-based, homophobic, xenophobic, and gynophobic bigots must be brought to see in a new way through our poetry. Community building and local empowerment are of the order. Our poetry must be global in scope – yet rooted and grounded in local community empowerment. Selfless acts of service to promote and increase Social Justice are needed. Lives selflessly devoted to establishing social justice are called for. Our poetic lives must be laid on the altar of the dis-enfranchised and unrepresented. We, as consciously aware poets, must advocate and speak out for those who have no voice. We, as poets, must, through stirring words of Social Justice, embody through our radical verses the burning hope of a just and sustainable future. This future must become increasingly collective as formerly marginalized consumers become empowered community-builders  –  through our poetry. As poets of the sustainable future we will empower and inform. Our poetry must collectivize, entitle and enslave. We must speak with ONE VOICE: the voice of change and social justice. Our words will rise with healing in their wings and lift whole communities from despair to radicalized self-awareness in communities filled with strident, intolerant and maniacal practitioners of PEACE & SOCIAL JUSTICE. All poets who do not lay their entire creative and lyrical selves on the altar of struggle to bring CHANGE and SOCIAL JUSTICE will be LIQUIDATED by our own EMPOWERED POETRY. IN THE END WE WILL WRITE A PURE POETRY OF SOCIAL CHANGE, ALL IN CAPS, AND THIS POETRY OF SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EMPOWERMENT WILL BE READ OVER THE GRAVES OF ALL SELL-OUT, CORPORATE, FASCIST, SNITCHING, SELFISH, UNEMPOWERED AND UNEMPOWERING TRAITORS AND ENEMIES OF SOCIAL JUSTICE.  IN THE END THERE WILL BE NO PUNCTUATION OR EVEN WORDS ONLY PURE IMAGES OF CHANGE + VISIONARY COLLABORATION IN SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION/MAYBE SLASH MARKS/OKAY MAYBE EXCLAMATION POINTS TOO BUT ONLY THOSE ! WHY? BECAUSE THE ONLY GOOD POET IS A LIVING POET WHO HAS LIQUIDATED EVERY FALSE POET NOT COMMITTED TO THE STRUGGLE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE ! LONG LIVE POETRY IN ACTION THROUGH CHANGE! WRITE/SPEAK/AGITATE FOR  SOCIAL JUSTICE  & EMPOWERMENT ! **POETRY IS STRUGGLE☻ STRUGGLE IS CHANGE☻ CHANGE REQUIRES SOCIAL JUSTICE☻ SOCIAL JUSTICE BRINGS PEACE☻ PEACE BRINGS WAR☻ WAR BRINGS CONFUSION & DEATH☻** (SO DON’T BE CONFUSED)

Selfless acts of service to promote and increase Social Justice are needed. Lives selflessly devoted to establishing social justice are called for. Our poetic lives must be laid on the altar of the dis-enfranchised and unrepresented. We, as consciously aware poets, must advocate and speak out for those who have no voice. We, as poets, must, through stirring words of Social Justice, embody through our radical verses the burning hope of a just and sustainable future. This future must become increasingly collective as formerly marginalized consumers become empowered community-builders  –  through our poetry. As poets of the sustainable future we will empower and inform. Our poetry must collectivize, entitle and enslave. We must speak with ONE VOICE: the voice of change and social justice. Our words will rise with healing in their wings and lift whole communities from despair to radicalized self-awareness in communities filled with strident, intolerant and maniacal practitioners of PEACE & SOCIAL JUSTICE. All poets who do not lay their entire creative and lyrical selves on the altar of struggle to bring CHANGE and SOCIAL JUSTICE will be LIQUIDATED by our own EMPOWERED POETRY. IN THE END WE WILL WRITE A PURE POETRY OF SOCIAL CHANGE, ALL IN CAPS, AND THIS POETRY OF SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EMPOWERMENT WILL BE READ OVER THE GRAVES OF ALL SELL-OUT, CORPORATE, FASCIST, SNITCHING, SELFISH, UNEMPOWERED AND UNEMPOWERING TRAITORS AND ENEMIES OF SOCIAL JUSTICE.  IN THE END THERE WILL BE NO PUNCTUATION OR EVEN WORDS ONLY PURE IMAGES OF CHANGE + VISIONARY COLLABORATION IN SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION/MAYBE SLASH MARKS/OKAY MAYBE EXCLAMATION POINTS TOO BUT ONLY THOSE ! WHY? BECAUSE THE ONLY GOOD POET IS A LIVING POET WHO HAS LIQUIDATED EVERY FALSE POET NOT COMMITTED TO THE STRUGGLE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE ! LONG LIVE POETRY IN ACTION THROUGH CHANGE! WRITE/SPEAK/AGITATE FOR  SOCIAL JUSTICE  & EMPOWERMENT ! **POETRY IS STRUGGLE☻ STRUGGLE IS CHANGE☻ CHANGE REQUIRES SOCIAL JUSTICE☻ SOCIAL JUSTICE BRINGS PEACE☻ PEACE BRINGS WAR☻ WAR BRINGS CONFUSION & DEATH☻** (SO DON’T BE CONFUSED)

I moved a few years ago To the upper state of Vermont Although the place is beautiful At times it can be one great big yawn That's when we put our heads together Me and my best friend Shawn And came up with the great idea To start a Hippie Farm Our noggins were a knocking Not sure how this could be done Do Hippies come from packs of seeds Or like flowers, in a bunch And can you start them off by grafting Like they do on Apple Farms Where you get rows and rows of Hippies From just a single one That's when Shawn remembered this mail order magazine That we took out and took a look inside It came with an assortment of Hippies From Raw to Roasted to Highly Deep Fried So we sat and weighed all of our options And ordered a bushel of Hippies alive Then we set out cultivating the fields Till the day our Hippies arrived The package  arrived a few days later In an old beat up VW Bus With psychedelic smoke pouring from the windows Pretty sure they all came buzzed Of course Hippies don't come with instructions Only bell bottom jeans and old Jefferson Airplane tapes Can't tell you how many Hippies we went through Before we learned from our mistakes Like don't plant a Hippie face first in the dirt They need a bit of air to breath And they don't like to be over watered Just dust them off when you feel the need Now that the farm is up and running We seem to have come into our own We've even come up with  a way of branding Some of the Hippies that we've grown We started selling them in flavors Like Ben and Jerry's down the street From our Abbie Hoffman Radical Cherry To our Hendrix Hazy Purple Berry Treat But it's our Groovy Rainbow Roundup Hippie Whose sales have never let us down In fact I'd put that Hippie up against Anybody else's Hippie in town I've never been much of one to brag But we're known on the East coast, up and down We've had people as far away as Florida Come and buy our Hippies by the pound So next time your up in Vermont Stop in and take a tour and watch us grow Don't forget to stop by our gift shop And purchase your very own Hippie to take home

Nikola Tesla
I’m a woman with some attitude-- not one who will dispense a platitude. Chicken soup won’t give you soul; from me, it’ll get you an eye roll. You try to mask your disapproving looks with sanctimonious advice from large print books: “Embrace the moment” “Be grateful” and “Breathe” “Pray” “See only the good” “Turn the other cheek” “Accept others’ flaws” “Don’t criticize”-- I have some advice that’s a bit more wise: “Don’t put up with ******** “Embrace your outrage." While you were living in the “present,” history turned the page. God is Dead, you’ve got to take charge; you’ve been scammed by crooks in suits, who live large. People aren’t so good; sometimes they’re **** They’ve pulled the rug out from under where you sit. Don’t accept others’ flaws; tell them to go to hell. If you’re really mad, don’t breathe, just yell. Anger is good, it’s there for a reason. You’re just a phony, with your people pleasin’. Get off your **** and take some action-- stick it to the jerks, join the radical faction. Accommodating ******** just brings on more-- just wait, and you’ll see what’s next in store.

Picture of girls face: 10 likes Picture of girls face featuring slightly/damn near totally visible ***** bumps: 5000 likes. What the **** people, its the SAME GIRL. Her **** are there in BOTH PICTURES yo. But due to the difference in likes, there's no doubt as to what the true focal point of the photographs are. Honestly, I'd much rather see a picture of a ladies face instead of one featuring the awesome breasticles. Because, while those **** do, without a doubt, totally rock, they should also be respected and like, viewed as something special for only that certain special person to see. CONTAIN YOUR **** YOUNG FEMALES FOR THE LOVE OF ******* GOD. You aren't attracting very respectable fellows by being so flaunty. People that are into you only for your tits/various other dank body parts you may or may not have, will most definitely end up hurting the beautiful blood pumping anomaly that lies behind said **** I mean it's your body, do what you want to do with it, but there are more then enough **** bouncing around the world right now to clog our minds with sexuality and distract us from accomplishing things as it is. WE DON'T NEED YOUR **** IN OUR FACE. not to mention, some day you're going to find a man or a woman that's going to love you for the super radical person that you are, and to them, your **** will just be like, the most awesome bonus, and by covering up just a bit more for all the numb skulled hard dicked mother ******* this world seems to have an endless supply of, you'll make that special person feel so so so so so so sooooo much more special when THEY get to see them. You know what i'm saying? We're in a society where your **** can take you further then your personality can and it's ******* ********

I dance out my anger in the name of the priestess, draw in her power to extinguish my unrest. I worship my body in a state of undress, let my rage break free in radical protest. I surrender myself to this sacred process, stomping my feet like an unbridled tempest.

the tectonic plates in me are shifting as our continents approach collide my ocean is getting closer to the mountains on your landscape tallest grasses blowing in wild demon dance, shaking their heads as heated storm approaches oven-baked air crackling with its own electric currents Nothing can stop it it's a magnetic force one to be reckoned with surrendered to as dust foams like ocean froth around our heads clinging to us in tiny starlit fragments and soon will come the slick dive into wordless waters, just skin on skin slippery mouth muscles like entwined snakes flick-flicking, shiny in eye-lit cherry moons Take my hand. Just pull me in. Enfold me, without talking watch as my aura rushes into you, first a delicate whisk of cool light to slake the thirst of coal-licked caverns then sparks and bubbling oxidation turning into liquid brushfire Hold your palm to my chest, as if to keep my heart steady, my glowing flare of halo pressed into your clavicle, taking in the embryonic beats soothing my torrid ache, infusing minerals in vitamin-laced libation It is time to simply bask in the new crispness of radical shake off the silt and salt and rise up into the spheres of memory of soulspeak of collapsed time zones budded breath spiraling up in curls, diaphanous dark mist ascending into light

I don't have any emotions anymore Sometimes, I don’t know if I’m having a feeling Or I am dreaming, while I am awake? Some might think that my mind is exploring my emotions while looking for happiness, So I decided to bake a melodrama cake Nope! I meant mel-o-cream butter pound cake The ingredient is my path to getting my feelings back Egg, butter, flour, sugar, raisins, baking powder and a little milk I just want to transfer my feeling, with some logical thinking..   Somewhere, deep within a non stanzaic, and syllabic poem forms by the minute It’s going to trend like this cake, which is going to be bake with love Poetry is everywhere, creaming my butter and sugar is poetic because butter and sugar never stick together. It also reminds me of Nana’s golden brown patties, tasty and spicy Adding the eggs, nutmeg, baking powder, brings out the natural female traits in this Island girl, without my empowering dreads The raisins and the baking powder remind me of The Rise of Radical African American Activism, And all that rises, rise in due degree so poetry is everywhere it's  in everything we say and do.

I don't know If I 'm Having A Feeling
Black power! I stopped hiding from my roots, I do not let my natural tightly coiled strands become chemically manipulated into bone straightness. I'm no longer hiding from my roots. My natural hair will represent this I went on an interview today for a position as a dental assistant, checked out the office on the website right after and then oh no The staff is all white, what if I don't get hired because of... Black Power! I stopped hiding from my roots; the sun is not my enemy. I no longer veil from its rays because the fear of getting "blacker." Look at that skin; love its rich deep melanin. Follow my movement; I'm no longer hiding from my roots. My black skin will prove this The other night I went out with a couple of new friends, to be more precise they were homemade Alantians. Born and raised in Atlanta! It was a nice warm night, and at the end of it they wanted to take some pics to post up on their instagrams. But guys wait; let’s get into the light, I don’t want to appear all dark next to you light brights. You are all mixed which makes you effortlessly good lookin' snap Ugh I hate it I'm to black, don’t post that. I stopped hiding from my roots, I rock my tightly coiled natural strands. I'm not ashamed of who I am, Look at my skin and its deep rich melanin   Walking with my fist raised up in the air to represent what I on a daily contradict. Black Power! Forgive me, I'm new to this. When I was growing up the things that embodied our black nation was never accepted. Black power! I'm ready to follow this radical movement.

I wrote a letter to my 12-year-old self and It went something along the lines of “Love Yourself” but counselling office posters read the same things so I ripped it up. See, I used to think that I could fly into the Sun and it would feel like a warm hug, nothing So drastic as incineration Then I saw what could happen to pallid skin on a hot day and my mindset changed. I wrote a letter to my 10-year-old self and it Was more like a warning, (a red light is flashing, don’t fly into that tower) Don’t let yourself become cynical Don’t forget to call your grandmother Don’t get so caught up in making money that You’ve forgotten what it means to be a kid You should be doing loop-the-loops around That tower, Roll upside-down, see your city like a bird. Don red, bleach your apron, do something Radical to it. This has become the unsung song of your life You’ve forgotten to live.

Si éste intento de poema tuviese un nombre, debería ser el tuyo, pero por cobardía dejaré el anonimato. Después de todo...Siempre fuimos fanáticos del misterio. Habían pasado tantos días. Tantas horas, tantos inviernos. Inviernos fríos que quemaban como infiernos. Incendios. Incendios de nieve, supongo. Nos vimos ese día luego de tanto tiempo. Tanto deseo acumulado ya nos estaba haciendo daño. Ja... ni siquiera nos dimos un abrazo, saltamos directo a los besos. Tengo que decirte; mis latidos estaban muy acelerados. Lancé mis dados. No me importó el presente o los presentes que en las ventanas estaban asomados. Y me mirabas a los ojos, y en los tuyos veía que eres mi principal demonio carnal. Pero a la final, si Dios existe sabe que tú no quieres ser ningún ángel. Nos besamos en ese banco como si nos quisiéramos chupar el alma... Querida, tus besos sabían más exquisitos de lo usual a causa de la ***** barata. Y me arrebatabas el aliento.Y tus senos me me observaban detrás de tu escote; o quizás yo los observaba a ellos, pero no nos importaba. Estabas tan errática. Tan radical que me era difícil seguirte el paso. Ibas lanzando ***** sobre el piso y dulces gemidos a mis oídos. No te mentiré, me sentía cohibido. Renuncié a mi actitud bohemia y despreocupada de vaquero y me sentí cohibido. Pero lo que me crecía en el pantalón era muy real como para haberlo fingido. Sabes lo difícil que se me hace ignorar mis animales instintos. Y no queríamos despedirnos. De irracionalidad pasamos a tecnicismos. Al: "No te vayas, quédate un rato más. Te haré café para que la ***** te deje de afectar". Y después los besos eran besos de tiernos adolescentes que se profesan amor eterno. Amor eterno que nunca fue correcto al momento. Es triste como acabo todo, ¿no, querida? Es triste que ahora me odies y me hayas sacado de tu vida. Pero si lees esto... por favor, recuérdame. Recuérdame tan imperfecto como soy. Recuérdame en tu escote; bajando mis manos por tu espalda y llegando a tus nalgas. Recuérdame escuchando esa canción que es mi canción favorita, y que escuchas solo por esa razón. Como sea que quieras, pero recuérdame. Yo siempre te recuerdo. Porque fuiste, eres y serás la autodestrucción que aún necesito.
