"socialite" poems
**I have an issue One that weighs heavily upon my heart One that, if left unchecked, threatens to tear our social moral fiber apart An issue I will express in English, with some help from my old friend *Swahili Hii imenisumbua akili, kwa hivyo kuiongelea ni kitu tunastahili Hii story ya immorality tunaichukulia so so light Dem akiji'expose kidogo mbele ya kamera haina mseo, tunampandisha cheo kwa society, all of a sudden ye ni socialite The new cool, eti ‘good girl gone bad’ Hiyo njaro siyo polite* We have a lot more to live for than that which we seem to be aware of It’s not always about a good time, or lack thereof Our reputation as a culture I believe is something we badly need to take care of *Siyo game Siyo Jokes Si eti mambo na fame* It shouldn’t just be about who drinks, who smokes, who vomits and who chokes *Hiyo lifestyle siyo dope Na siyo right* Six hundred and seventy something ways to die… choose one I refuse to go… speeding down a highway, drunk out of my mind, on another booz run However, I may not exactly be the right person to point out how messed up you are On a scale of one to ten? I’m probably as guilty as you are ******

My English Swahili Sheng' expressive...
Midnight just stands there It watches me with a stare She doesn't like to sleep Yet she sleeps with everyone but me I'm calm as it storms In this mental fire I am warm I'm not without but within As I let midnight in There's a hollow in the sounds Resounding through the pounds Of my insomniac heart In the silky black dark She was made in the light But lives in darkest night Solemn and upright Like a high-end socialite She makes me feel alive Before the sun slowly dies A martyr for my dreams But nothing's what it seems

Rootclod Rudiments
This young man walked in Black suit and black shoes In his left hand was a briefcase And in his right was the news His face seemed tense He had a crease in his forehead Probably thinking about his job Who knows what he contemplated But his eyes told a different story They personified moonbeams His eyes told me his soul Was thinking about other things His pupils were ballet dancers That were caged in normality His eyes did not agree With his outer formality Within him I saw a hungry Beast of a lion Within him I saw a vision Of a fire that was dying He was doing what was expected of him He was conforming to them He was doing his normal routine Of the socialite man But he’s so much more than that His heart was aloof somewhere else I watched him pay for his coffee Take a sip Then he left.

Coffee Shop
There is insincerity in my electric praise, regardless of response I drip cool pools of soft cloth on floor and utter abstruse succulent phrases. Even with all this, I am insipid in lending lip service to *** I absently inhale acrid smoke because I never pretended to be a hermetic socialite- because it is a socially acceptable form of self hatred. Obsessive animality has become disinterested sexuality, I have done anything ever asking "what then?" and everything done: has me **** in the eyes of men. Gleaming ideals of girl on girl, feverish licking, slick sweat dripping and all this boredom: the initiated subjects of whoredom come undone with the gripping of slippery moans and now lay soiled in sheets where hearts beat fast, striving hard, deep in keeping the motions of man. We are stripping off flakes of soft humanity, which we feed each other to watch it melt on the tongue. So very unlike writing, *** is hard wired, it needn't be learned- only practiced with intent for perfection and when the edges bleed together within the edacious mind, all is bared unclothing only sloven swine. The truth is: I only deal with shadows and align them in a malignant play of poetic puppetry. I outline a silver coated tongue seen to deliver elaborate loquacious lies, I **** deep at cultural control and I huff full lungs of the social soul.

A Parody of the Modern Pretense.
You strip naked and then Display your protruding ribs and your gentle curves Bask in the lust and admiration of drooling men Glued to their MacBooks, fingers pressed to nerves You think you are a *** symbol Your beauty commands respect Strong and nimble Attention simply what you expect But you’re wrong about your power You’re weak, tied with a tether A fragile, dainty flower Crumbling under a feather You do what they tell you to do Tiny **** are better than sagging thighs Body hair like buzzing flies Cellulite Overnight You are a socialite Swallow pills so hearty Starve day after day as you become more vein Stay up all night at parties Prolong the pain Hover over the toilet below Half crying, half vomiting, hungover Your guilty pleasures are reality shows The Biggest Loser, Extreme Makeover Love, *** and lust Drive you to do this Or maybe you just want trust For someone to care instead of dismiss The powder from the thick white sponge invades your nostrils It is the bread, your red nail polish the wine Vogue and Cosmo your glossy gospels Your closetful of designer shoes a shrine Cocktail dresses and Gucci are your new burger and draught Finding nourishment in Martinis, icy words Why do you think this will make up for your past? All it does is make it worse

Crumbling Under a Feather
Hungry teeth razors Slice to scar my hand. Watching the black symbol redden Quenches my thirst like a cold beer. Shield me from their fear; and with clear eyes, among socialite imbued rags, I shall face my pain Or live a conscious death.

X is for Minors
Breast-ache woman, you beautify behind redden scars and befriend those who are free from languid storm-hair. I see you rate the raw breast-worship of frantic whistles which collide against the callus freckles of a moon-sea. You ask, "Can you see the satellites that sate lights of the city...Creating causeways or ways to cause the first chill of dirt in a Martini?" I take a drink.

Socialite
I'm not Shakespeare, not some romantic poet clad in flowers and doves I'm no Fitzgerald, a dapper socialite at home with the intellectuals and aristocrats I'd like to be Hemingway, a man in all senses of the word, guided by a certain wit and drive Hell, I'd even take Bukowski, or Kerouac, drug addled and safe in the strength of my arrogance I'm not your favorite department store no recognizable brand no jewelry My love is not measured in the moments quenched with awe no symphonies or trips to the opera house In a dime store I trudge through the aisles of shelves rummaging through the lost and found of people long forgotten and dead I find a necklace, shells strung together on a piece of fishing line and I think of you young and happy with a bucket and a ***** so curious as to the motion of the ocean, you slowly approach only to run away - giddy in your fear - as the cold tide licks at your heels digging up ***** to show to your Mom and Dad I think of you, my hand clutching that Dime store necklace I think of you now Me so intrigued, I draw up my plans with tact only to crumble before you I am the shells you dug up I am the fishing line your dad cut off for you the knots he taught you to make I am your lost and found helplessly missing you always I am your Dime Store love

Dime Store Love
What if Neil tripped down those famed steps One small st- And collapsed in a heap of vacuum-resistant debris Cracked glass and aspiration Shame-sweat beading on his brow And the president’s hands hit his horseshoe forehead and he frowned like the big man he was And the mayor pounded his fist against the mahogany recently polished by the secretary And the wrists of socialite women hit their foreheads and they gasped and crumpled on to couches white with scrubbings And the children thought he was ducking-and-covering, just like Ms. Merryweather said And the Haight-Ashbury hoodlums didn’t notice because the needle was already sunk in like incisors And the traitors giggled fuck-you's in their colonies festering like mold?

BECAUSE **** ULTRA RAPID CYCLING
Legs pinched and yellow as ginger root My hands like yams, and belly, The whole of me looks plucked from the underground, Topped with a thin sprig - enough hairs to count in an afternoon Face pink as potatoes in the kitchen, Eyes plain and brown. A trip to the market yields a bag of onions and whispers of the monster woman. If I am a monster, I am a recluse Curled around and polishing the opals that grow fat as melons inside me. Cut, I do not bleed. My veins only hold the roar of a thunder storm Field mice find homes in the folds of my ankle. The weather cannot be contained in my blood alone; My open mouth stumbles like rain drops thucking in mud. Angry, I howl sunlight. I used to be a school yard socialite, But was always twice as wide as tall, And a careful turn would tumble three of my comrades It wasn't long before they turned on me Back then I thought that children were the cruelest creatures All rocks and fierce joy, But the mothers watched with condemning eyes, And snarled.

How Hideous Am I?
To accept knowing Is not knowing But still knowing some Is enough To know life and Not know life Seeing the creases Of the newspaper The *** rests his weary Head on Is enough To see breath enter Escape the broken body Of a young boy Ignorant to the facts of the world That surround him Is enough At the time The worried Worry The anxious Toil over things Within themselves Outside of themselves Out of Their full Control The bigots Picket a cause They know nothing About, embracing Their unity in Hate But the spellings wrong The forward thinkers Caved in with Paperwork and Hopes and dreams Billowing plumes of twisted Curled, cigarette smoke Ashen intellectuals caught up In the overflowing ash trays Of the overzealous socialite This is our chance To Be Someone The realist Staring blankly at an Empty salt shaker sitting Next to a full Pepper shaker The veteran Wishing there Was no such thing As bullets The president On a pedestal Showing how fragile Man can be We people enter Through these doors Escaped convicts of the eternal Holding a key of Impossibilities There are so many roads That are open to us Who sways us to take the One we tread upon now? Who has enticed us to the The path we now walk upon? I see a glimmer of the horizon The lights show a blinding Ancient yellow, the color of my mother's ***** blonde hair; The clouds Her laughter As she squints, hiding Her joy, keeping it for herself "Safe keeping"," she always said For soon She knew I would be An echo Remembrance of Sound

Shallow (Rhymed Tenet)
I'm an apocalyptic mess. Feathers have weakened, my spine. Fathers defeating your Slate of counter-morals. And grandsons fighting, In your perfect dark ambience. You slide along Their dim sunshine. Stars in long strands of hair. Air – Air, within a bolt of Thickened smoke. I'm a pivotal truth. A potential socialite. I'm the average placid child. A protruding noise. A prolific stride. I'm the plastic hero, In this poisonous state of mind. I'm fickle. Dainty. Drained in his fortune Of sins. Her life, Her subway train, Filled with brains, So politically innate. An infrasonic plea. You dive an impossible, Trance of trenchant treasures, And happy measures. We will sit our lucky posture, You & I. My sixty-second genius Flee the inner torture. Let us finish in the pop culture.

Where do good ideas come from? They shrivel away from the hypnotizing light of a virtual socialite They grow toward the sun out above the clouds Ever-present from birth to death, They're the latest permutations of the same explosion that started that Fusion core up there running Running without stopping for a billion years Fueling the experiments of life that consciousness spontaneously manifested Across the planets Each a test of a different vibrational frequency Incompatible with one another but coexistent Mercury's barren silver mines And the Venusian valleys And the regal red sands of Mars And Jupiter's infinite wisdom and so forth to the edge of the Oort Cloud And the green and blue ecology of earth, the waterworld Where the entire drama we've seen so far has been carried out The audience has grown in appetite And doesn't always see that it too is the performance But the unwilling blindness is all part of the sublime suspense of this subcosmic game The planetary curiosity, Can we make it? Would it matter? We'll never truly die when we forget time

Life Experiments
A girl walked out of the thrift store, Sporting a green leather pea coat. She was accosted by a budding socialite, Who complimented her garish green. "How dare you call it 'Green'!, Can't you see what this is?" The socialite-turned-desperate shook her head. "'Tis the colour of the trees after spring." "Green?" "No, silly. Beautiful." And thus a trend was set.

In life you are a total nobody if you aren't: A "socialite superstar" who sacrifices moral for popularity A tech freak A work-a-holic A married man or woman (opposite *** only!) An insensitive "cowboy" A confederate flag sympathizer (incomparable to ****** I guess) A religious fanatic Someone who is so open minded they are open to bad or EVIL Rich as hell Extremely violent or purposefully "unaware of bullies" Anyone who graduated with honors (3.5 or higher, please!) Certain everyone should work and/or drive Covered by expensive life insurance Popular with dozens of "honest friends" A gun owner who doesn't believe in the need for regulation A cigarette smoker (but *** is a "bigger devil!") Hating cross dressers A nudist hater Built with a six pack Absolutely certain that every hippy is "the devil" A nature hater Willing to **** anything that moves (they are the pests) Giving away all natural love for money One who loves to go to war, a.k.a. "gung-ho" Gifted with perfected teeth One to ignore the "little lower people" at work/school A "brown noser," trying to even out-do your mentors A cheeky person obsessed with being manager (I'm #1!) Poised to kick someone out on a moments notice (no hustlers here!) Always on "mommy" and "daddies" side, even if they went too far The list goes on and on, but you need to be most of these to succeed!

Sometimes I realize I don't have it bad My parents are still together We have power most days Plenty of people talk at me But then some days I have to shower at Lilly's Some times no one talks to me And some I don't eat And some I can't eat And then I'm confused I'm somewhere in the middle Of a poor loner And a middle class socialite
