"representatives" poems
Ganges, dawn, a luminous haze over the water. The bathing ghats are busy with the faithful. (But India is inconceivable without faith.)   The robed bathers, raising river water to the sun, pouring it back to mother Ganges, are they worshipping the sun or the river? For them God is everywhere and everything.  Water, sun, the river and the twinkling lamps floating on it are part of one consciousness. The burning ghats too (such quantities of wood stacked ready) are beginning their day. The funeral party approaching in respectful haste have a job to do. They build their pile, move the body to the wood, start the fire. I watch, but not for long. This moment, so intimate, so public, reminds me I am an intruder here. The ashes will return to Ganga unwitnessed by me. Away from the river, the vendors of tea do their trade among the stalls. Monkeys, cheerfully pilfering, are chased away half-heartedly, for they are Hanuman’s representatives, and they, with the sacred, garbage-clearing cows, are part of the one consciousness. In this land all are “the faithful”, everything is God’s creation. In this poverty is richness.

Enemy training, one, two three Is notable for its simplicity. You just arm yourself thoroughly And shoot people with alacrity. Don’t worry about being wrong Or whether an action is right. That they don’t want you to shoot Is enough to start the fight. Please take this as truth That this is how it is done If you see someone as enemy You cease to see a human. The fact that they are armed And don’t like who you like Is enough to create words like **** **** ****** and **** Enemy training, one, two three Is notable for its simplicity. You just arm yourself thoroughly And shoot people with alacrity. Line up the opposition forces Against a bullet-riddled wall And shoot them many times And see how many will fall. The ones who do not die Must be minions of the devil. They are the enemy, you see. That’s all. That’s on the level. Don’t worry about being wrong Or whether an action is right. That they don’t want you to shoot Is enough to start the fight. And those people that don’t Believe in your own form of Jesus, Like Aerabbs and Jews and such, Shoot them as much as it pleases. Because they won’t go to heaven, And are just heathens anyway Like them Buddhist dingdongs Like them ****** lesbians and gays. Enemy training, one, two three Is notable for its simplicity. You just arm yourself thoroughly And shoot people with alacrity. And people in foreign countries Well, you can guess how that goes; Take a look and easily compare Canadanians to them from Mexico. The French are Frogs, Spanish spics. None as good as us Americans. And nothing good can come out Of any **** place that is African. Don’t worry about being wrong Or whether an action is right. That they don’t want you to shoot Is enough to start the fight. Now if you find some of this offensive And if this is revving up your motors, Just bear in mind, this is what goes on In the mind of the average voter. Want to change this, make life better? Drop your representatives a letter. Tell them you are on to their villainy And see them as supporting the REAL enemy.

The first duty of the State Should be sanitation, Not defense, nor cyber-security. Drain the swamps. **** the vermin. Wash & sweep the streets. Let us forgive his past shenanigans. A vote for ****** is a Vote for cleanliness. After all: next to Godliness. (American politician **Anthony ****** former member of the U.S. House of Representatives from New York City, was involved in a ****** scandal related to sexting, or sending explicit ****** material by cell phone.

“Weinergate Redux”
Let us awake from the decay of strategic costumes where the incestuous fragrance of madness permeates golden dreams of eclectic strokes. Bureaucratic self-enhancement nurtures docile manufacturers of laborious compliance, whilst social conscience plummets to depths of callous and entrepreneurial versatility. Enduring imitations of an unsatisfactory kind is like pairing mint fondant with rich and savoury gravy which is acquired with strategic dishonesty. Oh, negligent wakefulness – will we ever arise and discern those lobotomised representatives in this legislative brothel of excessive absurdity? Shake me at one minute to midnight in the House of Lords.

Monarchical Slumber
I am victim only to constant distractions, restrictions, prescriptions, vicarious factors, as various factions of elitism prescribe defeat to the common man; the hard working talented beaten upon by the self driven commerce land. Businessmen, crooks, warlords and bankers; victory purports itself the higher moral ground. ******* the world, lie on the crimson sand. The brevity of riches in led laden ditches, trenches v armistice; one man’s control over cadets and lieutenants. Equality it seems is general ignorance, propose roll reversal and receive corporal punishment. Capital interests will be met with bursaries, bail out the banks and return to your knees, put out your hands and beg for your feed. If the top three percent own more wealth than the lower half put together while politicians claim to be fair-weather, conclude that sincerities amiss, that your representatives are on the pay roll of profit driven lobbyists. Career crazed fat-cats couldn’t care less if you're in tattered garments or there’s a hole in your dress, their polished boots carry them from vault to vault while we fill another with oil-baron asphalt. As social repression pushes populations science progresses, enabling armed forces to kettle us, cut us off and circle on horses. Power-shifts across the globe become jaded by investment with private militias and fascist supremacists seizing resources from war torn villages to fund their crude sourced morality, migrants and refugee families are vilified by ignorance forged in cynicism caused by the inequality of education. Here lie the symptoms of infinite regression, hold mirror to gene-pool as it replicates the same flawed equation, as populations expire and conspire so does the problem. Bombing a country without repercussions, is as likely as a breaking the waters surface without sending ripples to the adjacent atoms. These are the dark ages of social stagnation.

He has this nervous tick. When a person is lying he will open his mouth. Sometimes his jaw will hit the floor. Sometimes words will come out. And sometimes there are consequences, if not only a sore jaw. He is an affable man. Many would say he's a good sport and in good nature, even though he's not athletic and has severe allergies. Handshakes are important to him. And he understands the appeal of a thumbs-up. Hugs are reserved for holidays, and tears were only had at funerals. Sunglasses optional, but the only pair he owns he keeps in the jacket of his black suit. Any man that has a tendency to speak too freely, or too much, will have to learn to talk their way out of a potentially harmful situation. The "Gift of Gab"did not die with the smock. It evolved with the suit. It became five words said in three. It is in relation to political correctness. It's knowing that government is not ******** but many representatives are mentally challenged. He tries to stay ahead of his mannerisms. Raised eyebrow. Twitching eye. Clenched teeth. But some things cannot be hid. Like the vein in his forehead. And of course his verbal diarrhea. But he would rather expell insight and opinion rather than hold it in only to force it out later in privacy. People involved in Fine Art are shot on site. Possession of a canvas brings a life sentence. The art departments are born from advertising. False pretense is considered flexible. When the program used is for the sole purpose of manipulation you aren't expected to become angry. Government turns the clocks back, stretching time and truth, with knowledge of a man who has done the same, and was considered a master. Metaphysics and a mustache, he changed the world with a canvas, and with an open mouth he expelled truth and injustice to a contemporary audience. He applied his paint with a poetic eye. Soon he learned that you don't need to start a fire to melt a clock. All you need is a brush, and sometimes a barren tree.

All birds All birds should make noises On tree branches with full choice Loud or small but with nice melody Naturally attention drawn at them by everybody Of late I have lost little hope The revenge and bloodshed doesn’t stop In every street there is violence Life has become hell since then The change is must and welcome Let it be blown from any direction and come It must be encouraging with enthusiasm There may appear some improvement with mechanism We hear disturbing news Worst affected countries may be hardly few Yet it has witnessed lots of carnage Blot on humanity and painted as dark page It could have been avoided Little concession would have been given or granted What were they holing back and asking in return? Little peace to live in and prosperity in turn Who can be trusted upon? Law protector or merely lip actors? Honest military rulers or civilian representatives? All are corrupt and wants to rule by proxy or relatives Power is such a greed no one may want to leave It has to be imposed on them forcefully to relieve They want mass concentration of wealth and power Rule over millions, keep them starved and poor I wish no god may shower them with blessings They have to flee the land and face the worst chase No place for them to stay peacefully and alive Alas! They could have earned blessings to survive There can be no end to any kind of lust Even animals may want or have it as must We are human and should know about the result Why not then it come peacefully without curse and insults?

I always wanted to compose symphonies, But my hands and my head could never agree. I got the blue curse, because I always feel beats, But my fingers freeze up when I get to melo-DIEs. Recede. I want to live the nihilist's dream, Smoke packs a day to intensify screams. Maybe if I stare into the middle distance, After hours I would build up a tolerance to listen. IN THIS town, there are only 2 kinds of people Girls who pierce their NOSES and THOSE IN the steeple Walking down So. Auburn in bare feet and short shorts Catching the gleam from the street (of course), With their dreadlocks all up in auburn buns And their eyes shooting diamonds in the autumn sun. Bullet-belt vests draped lazily over their shoulders, With double-zero earrings and squirt-gun holsters. And the police-dogs and the SWAT cars are all powered by indulgence, The doctors are up to their elbows in cadavers by self-expulsion The men are splitting at the seams from over-eating obsessive compulsion And the shameful deception of upward inflection to change my direction and wind UP and the inanimate DUCKling with a large crank between its shoulders In the shape of a black key to the black energy that makes the cold rooms colder Is a disguise to the spoken word hurricanes brewing inside me. Set me to zero then make me the hero so physicists can derive me. If the sum of all forces is equal to mass times acceleration, Maybe the sum of world problems is equal to vanity times irritation. Jeans cutting up my legs, purpling due to lack of circulation Are developing holes, as well as the soles of my shoes, I'm growing impatient. The production slows to a halt, pouring salt into lacerations, And as boys grow into drunk daddies, women resort to migration. This country isn't democracy, just a ghastly and pale imitation, These people don't have representatives, only half-assed representations.

You stood in the limelight before a shaft of blazing luminescence emitted from the zenith positioned matrix of all energy The brightness illuminated your radiant countenance as blackness enveloped around your structures as in a early baroque by Rembrandt Your form was made from the finest materials But your representatives stood in defiance going beyond their eroded gardens and trampled vegetation and beast underfoot; even defecated plutonium in my backyard and belched various gases in my face Luxury is still your ideology; all to sure in obtaining unlimited resources You are still heavily consuming the best still maintaining the frivolous notion that all is well never anticipating that time passes into the future The shaft of blazing sunlight has insidiously been replaced by a blinding interrogation lamp as darkness licks at your morals and creeps upon your very being small cracks are now being discovered upon your once lovely face No longer can you obtain desirous riches as readily as options become minimized, while playing and bullying a winning serious game of monopoly against poor countries Panic is beginning to take hold as reality overcomes frivolity You are starting to run, you have already left one of your golden combat boots in Vietnam; later pirated black gold from Mesopotamia under perjury and severed our nation with the fascistic sword of xenophobia, and plundered the spirits, at home, and other innocent minorities unjustly And nationalised yourself from a continent to an island regressing into itself; homogenized into exceptionalism and the nervous propagandized gnashing of Caucasian teeth But doubtless to say there is no reason for a prince to save you because you have gotten too old, much too corporatised, too corrupted, too soon, too fast, YOU MUST SAVE YOURSELF!!

Osama Bin Laden is Alive and Well
This century spins wilder than prior gyres, Racing backward, ever more efficient and spectacular, Study finds.   The weather today, like every day, is Immense and incomprehensible.   Election week is soon, and the Salv-nation Party candidate Would like to remind voters of the Party of the Mysterious Robe's Mysteriousness. Representatives for the PMR gave no comment.   ****** digital performer @JezebElsa Went viral with her leaks. #HollywoodNewz   An impressive number of people we know Demand justice for all registered unrepentant killers.   A Meteor landed not ironically atop Selfiecomplishment Summit early this morning, Injuring only the most dedicated hikers. Confirming folklore, the Meteor disappeared once photographed. Don't go out trying to find it. However, you may still purchase a tincture of the liquid it contained From us at OrganicH2.Org.Headfeed.com No meteorologists were harmed.   Us vs. Terror: Terrorwatch!: The Monsters we've been ignoring Have taken the City and consumed the last of

The ashes of our loved ones are blown in the wind, The blood of our siblings fill the streets, Politicians we elected rob us, with impunity, Working tirelessly to reduce us to bits; They **** our soldiers- our dearly beloved brothers, Send them to a war which they themselves create, They have underarmed the soldiers but arm the enemy, Their callousness and negligence- we cannot underestimate; Their is no one to speak for us- no one at all, They sit in their noble seats lobbying for themselves, They fill their homes with the resources of our people, While these people are left with little to fend for themselves; Our educational system has been brought to ruin, Medical system is now in a deplorable state, Fund looting is now the order of the day, To impoverish my people even further is all they debate; Our security operatives are those that **** us more, Our hearts are always filled with fear when they come our way, They maim and **** even when we protest for justice, Who then should we run to when killers come our way? The minority among us are disenfranchised, Jobs belonging to our youths have been stolen away, Those who create jobs for themseves earn too little to live by, The pensions of pensioneers are hijacked day by day; Our bills are on the increase while salaries remain the same, The salaries of some are slashed day by day, In the midst these difficulties is the firing of workers, As wages become burdensome for companies to pay; I pray that youths like me will open their eyes and see, That all we have is ourselves not these enemies, If this lesson is learnt we will quit fighting eachother, And tolerate one another- finding ways to sustain peace; Shall this oppression continue while we stand and watch? No- we will rise and create a new era of representatives? A people who will be elected from our very own, People of our own generation to replace these theives.

Lie cheat and steal Fascism is totally real What deals are they cooking When none of us is looking? **** **** and destroy The fascist version of joy. Buy a few ****** congressmen Start the whole thing over again. Washington DC is always run By sellouts and crooks, every one. It you want things to not be the same Do something about changing the game. Find out where your representatives Go to play, to bank and live, If they seem to be able to walk Totally different than they talk. Keep the waters murky and hazy Because the voters are so lazy. Tell a bunch of lies on TV Nobody cares about reality. They think celebrity shows Are the way life really goes. That is, of course, because Nobody notices the cameras.

Detached. Re-rendered. Under-appreciated. Again. She was a cold photograph, still life; subterfuge, undertow, parabola, meltdown. Words. Nothing in common. But the picture is there. I'm not sure where it's going. Because we are lacking confidence. This world has interested me for so long. Celebrities save citizens more than governments. Hilarious. Ellen was a saint during Katrina. Bush was in a tree house, as our satirical representatives like to put it. Peoples' actions are giving selfishness a bad name. We all forget that non-infringement is the first step towards equality. We must preserve such sacred rights. But do we care? History is a short hour of stifled laughter and deals. Ironic. Let's just lie down on the grass like we used to. But how can we knowing what we know now? What if we had tools to forget? To run away? There they are in the sugar.

Severence & Absolution
I am exhausted by the endless pontification from Professional apologists for every form of Bad behavior from the protected class of the day. I am tired of hearing from people for whom Race / *** / color / creed / disability / ****** orientation Is a hammer and the whole world is a nail. I am weary of politicians passing laws They neither read nor understand And of the media that gives them cover. I am fatigued by the endless lecturing from talking heads About the need to strictly adhere to political correctness And their attempts to quash speech and rewrite history. I am haggard from having to deflect the constant, blatant, Insidious efforts at indoctrination from the self-appointed Thought police peddling propaganda masquerading as news. I am burned out from the galloping gall, Of apologists portraying criminals as victims, While ignoring the harm done to their actual victims. I am tuckered out by the double standard, Of some racists who hide behind a perpetual cry of racism, As the only acceptable answer to every difficult question. I am petered out by having to listen, To the mad ravings of newly arrived Representatives, Barely out of diapers proposing ideas from The Twilight Zone. I am drained by the injustice of heroes attacked as monsters, Monsters treated as heroes and proudly worn on T-shirts, And those who stand for nothing but take a knee for the National Anthem. I am sapped by traitors who marry terrorists, Name their children after other terrorist warlords, Then demand the right to to come home to the country they betrayed. I am worn out by life in a world ruled by madness that expects me to Nod, pump my fist in the air and march in lockstep to an imposed Drumbeat while ignoring the man behind the curtain orchestrating the show.

Our republic died today; i wonder who noticed? Very few, i am certain, since most were busy trying to survive in this economy, or feed their children, or worried about healthcare (still), or trying to escape this reality, but something fundamental is different now. The Senate took away the teeth of the filibuster today. Simple majority rules now, no more consensus building.        So?  I don't care about politics or politicians. That is a shame, because they care about you.  In fact, they are counting on you. To stay distracted. To think tyranny is only for distant lands. To think that today's reform won't be        tomorrow's crushing defeat. Black America:        What if tomorrow the House of Representatives        passes a law to make you all slaves again? LGBT Americans:        What if tomorrow the House makes it a law that        all of you be imprisoned for being who you are? Women Americans:        What if tomorrow the House takes away the        abortion option, or worse? All of you are outnumbered. Remember...majority rules now.  The Senate won't slow it down. Be careful who you **** off. Because debate and careful consideration are no longer valued in this Democratic pseudo-Utopia. It interferes with their agenda. Petty tyrants don't just rule in Third World countries. Not anymore. They work on Capitol Hill and live in the White House.
