"usage" poems
So many of us sit, think and still wonder, But have we ever gave ourselves the chance to ask? Well no! We just rejoice and find oursleves floating on cloud nine because "it is just another public holiday" So many of us have cherished this day, as a day of drinking, parting and being in the family way. Which "Us" am i refering to? Well it is the youth of South Africa, That can only sing "Freedom is coming tomorrow" very well without knowing the significance of that freedom and what it took for this freedom to come well let me take you back to the hands of time. In June 16, 1976 the mongoloid youth of South Africa marched down the streets of Soweto for this freedom we have today. BLOOD SHADE, SCREAMS, EXPLOIDING SOUNDS and the cries of faces without races filled the streets of Soweto. Parents feared for the lives of their children, but who knew that adolescents could be so brave? They stood together in unity, the same unity we lack today. Fought for what was right and that came with their African roots, which we nolonger honour today, they fought against the usage af Afrikaans as the main language of communication at schools. And look where it left us today. We have the Right to choice and the Freedom of association. And not forgeting that, they left us with the courage to say "WE ARE PROUDLY SOUTH AFRICANS"

Youth day (June 16, 1976)
When did things change so much? When did I get so encapsulated Into the world of technology? When did I stop listening To myself and my own thoughts And instead add another view To some article or YouTube video Just to reach some spoon-fed "opinion"? When did we stop engaging In life and with ourselves? When did playing video games turn to Watching other people play them online Numbing our brains to the world And "filling" our social needs digitally? When did watching television turn into Binge-watching an entire series in one sitting? With this much constant stimulation It's no wonder we're bored so easily And that no one goes outside anymore And that I don't feel alive anymore Because one of the first things I do When I get home from work or the gym Is turn on the smart tv so it can warm up Because the apps on it take time to load And I already know that my free time Will be spent in front of that screen Lately I've been nervous about Eventually moving in with new people Primarily because I spend a lot of my time Passively using the television I was concerned with how we'd balance our usage Instead of considering changing the way I spend my time When did I start placing my use of technology Above my own self-care? When I spend hours watching YouTube But still forget to take a shower sometimes And I truly wonder if my recent urges To leave the state to work on a farm for a month Are more indicative of some deep desire To unplug and reset my energy and priorities Than my interest in agriculture or Learning to live off of the land When did I start to feel the need To take such drastic measures To change something so simple Something I could choose to disengage with At the simple touch of a button?

I see the older generations say “I miss the good ole days” “I miss the America I grew up in” Do they fail to realize that their generation did this? Their generation ruined the economy Their generation poisoned the earth Their generation drained the Earth of her resources Their generation segregated people of color Their generation disowns their children for being gay Their generation is full of hate But go on, please, tell me how my generation is ruining the world. My generation who is chanting Black Lives Mater My generation who is trying to reduce their plastic usage My generation who is fighting for LGBT+ rights My generation who is fighting for women to have the right to their body My generation who is still in school My generation who is mentally unstable But still is trying to make things right. My generation is doing the things their generation failed to. Their generation had their time, and they failed their children Their grandchildren So now it’s time for a new generation My generation

"The Druids taught their disciples many things about nature and the perfections of God, and that, there was only one God, the Creator of heaven and earth. One name, under which they worshiped him, was Esus or Hesus (“He," in Celtic meaning, "Lord," ) or Harits which is their name for Horus..." ~Julius Caesar from [Signs and Symbols of Primordial Man, by Albert Churchward circa 1912] [Page 186] "He,"  -meaning, "Lord," and "Sus," being the most ancient Minoan form of, "Zeus," therefore, "Jesus," means in Celtic and Greek; "Lord Zeus." The word "Harits," being Sanskrit identical to, "Charits," and "Marits, Maruts," a mythical epithet for Aryas, or Aryans so the usage of it for his name means it represents him as being Aryan.   Jesus as an Aryan. *If You can prove it, prove it wrong, then do so here or do so in song. If you can also, do it in verse, then truly you'll deserve a purse. I do not believe there will ever be, on this point, ...a mortal man to challenge me!* Good Luck

but have you noticed, have you noticed how  all mental health problems stem form a seemingly aether virus that attacks the pronoun category; i mean with proper justifiable schizoids you will not hear of the nouns being ransacked for an equation that equates itself to misnomers; it's all categorised negation of ease within the framework of pronouns. it's strange that philosophers stress the pronouns so much these days and those countless prior, but why do mental health diseases attack the pronouns and not the nouns? they attack the verbs thoroughly, but prior to the verbs exposing an illness the pronouns are attacked, so that many considering the singularity of expressing thought are ill because of being forced into a plural expression of thought: "voices." i find it hard to understand, but it's the reality, the aether virus attacks the pronoun on the backdrop of a king's casual expression / use of pronouns, when a king casually says of himself as omni or multi with one and we respectively; so why are pronouns so weak and nouns so strong that a tree cannot be a misnomer attaché of timber and rock not a pillar, or mountain as the verb: mountaineering? the pronoun category is weak from day one, because it suggests photographic duck animation on the lip pursed into a quack quack, but if we constructed thought without knowledge prior, eating the fruit of knowledge rather than the fruit of thought, using the starting point of the genesis metaphor, it's sometimes a no brainer to have weak thinking and strength in knowing, for if there was strength in thinking and weakness in knowing, i'd be the one chiseling these words in the ice age on a cavern wall. so, given, that diseases such as the famed premature dementia attack the pronouns but not the nouns the schizoid one will convene life with: pizza is pizza and sunshine ray down the drain clock the millionth dead parting of grasshoppers in decimals - while man unto man lusts one man's parting in decimals, but should dire said, part man with integers, and insects with decimals! but still, in the terminology of a cartesian understanding of illness, in that segregational aspect of things "sorted," why are mental illnesses tattooed in a weak pronoun usage compared to a strength in other grammatical categories? why are not mental illnesses ******* the life out of the nouns? the nouns are intact, the pronouns attacked, and the verbs chess piece the pawn from the casually speaking clown king into a beast imprisoned, for while the pronouns are attacked and the nouns left intact, the attack on pronouns expresses itself fully in verbs of the never existent tact: with such magic as to claim knock knock on plank is the same as knock knock on veneer.

(1) There’s one thing I must get off my chest that’s bothered me now even 50 years on with the passage of time – my English teacher then she always told me when I grumbled homework was too difficult, she’d tell me: “That’s a piece of cake” And I’d go home discombobulated how anyone could eat paper or homework and she said this not once, but every time: “It’s a piece of cake” (2) And my parents and I looked at it every which way and from every point of view and concluded in our Perfect Ancient Native language: *“This English teacher is a loony. She is wooly-headed. She is the lamb Mary lost, silly and muddle-headed. How can homework be a piece of cake? Anyway, we don’t eat cake – we eat samosas.”* (3) And yet the English teacher would put her nose up in the air and remonstrate: “It’s a piece of cake!” Oh yeah, would you like tea with it? Now, my parents, bless their Ancient Souls, have gone on into the next world And I’m left wondering about the secret madness of that English teacher who’d ask me to eat cake when I expressed genuine concern… Well, my parents have passed on, as I said, and I’ve moved on as is plain and radiant to see to master idioms and vocabulary Punctuation, the catenative verb and Usage; and, as for that wooly-headed English teacher, I’m sure she’s moved on into a comfortable nuthouse where the staff makes her eat her cake, and make her think she can have it too - cos that’s what they do to nuts, and such instances (4) And now that I have got that off my chest, I can comfortably resume memorizing Volume 3 of theOxford Dictionary as  I perambulate and copy 100 entries from Fowler’s “Modern English Usage” as I victulate which is all part of my nightly ritual since she told me to do so some 50 years ago (cos I happened to look at her Union Jack knickers when she sat high on the table, and I stood up ***** cos that's what they made us do in the cinemas) - and that helps to put me into a state of dormancy, to hibernate till the sun ushers in a new day for me  – and a new cake for that wooly-headed English teacher, she, I can presume with certainty, elegantly reposed and superannuated Now, I’m glad I’ve got this off my chest and mastered my idioms and phrases and I can go eat my samosas

(1) There’s one thing I must get off my chest that’s bothered me now even 50 years on with the passage of time – my English teacher then she always told me when I grumbled homework was too difficult, she’d tell me: “That’s a piece of cake” And I’d go home discombobulated how anyone could eat paper or homework and she said this not once, but every time: “It’s a piece of cake” (2) And my parents and I looked at it every which way and from every point of view and concluded in our Perfect Ancient Native language: *“This English teacher is a loony. She is wooly-headed. She is the lamb Mary lost, silly and muddle-headed. How can homework be a piece of cake? Anyway, we don’t eat cake – we eat samosas.”* (3) And yet the English teacher would put her nose up in the air and remonstrate: “It’s a piece of cake!” Oh yeah, would you like tea with it? Now, my parents, bless their Ancient Souls, have gone on into the next world And I’m left wondering about the secret madness of that English teacher who’d ask me to eat cake when I expressed genuine concern… Well, my parents have passed on, as I said, and I’ve moved on as is plain and radiant to see to master idioms and vocabulary Punctuation, the catenative verb and Usage; and, as for that wooly-headed English teacher, I’m sure she’s moved on into a comfortable nuthouse where the staff makes her eat her cake, and make her think she can have it too - cos that’s what they do to nuts, and such instances (4) And now that I have got that off my chest, I can comfortably resume memorizing Volume 3 of theOxford Dictionary as  I perambulate and copy 100 entries from Fowler’s “Modern English Usage” as I victulate which is all part of my nightly ritual since she told me to do so some 50 years ago (cos I happened to look at her Union Jack knickers when she sat high on the table, and I stood up ***** cos that's what they made us do in the cinemas) - and that helps to put me into a state of dormancy, to hibernate till the sun ushers in a new day for me  – and a new cake for that wooly-headed English teacher, she, I can presume with certainty, elegantly reposed and superannuated Now, I’m glad I’ve got this off my chest and mastered my idioms and phrases and I can go eat my samosas

mission statement 7 - only i do it
of course i ********** every night, otherwise i'd be wondering about the next Laika in space with some next soviet conspiracy Sputnik hovering while i chance abbreviate a change on hairstyling thinking: jeez, this is a little bit too afro frizzy for a brainstorm, maybe i better opt for Jamaican dreads? economics of shampoo usage, suddenly a large bank account. i do get the idea behind treating nouns like albinos... bleach the ******* hang them to dry in Polaroids... while commercial flights fly at a certain height, and the rich buggers fly high enough to jet-stream in the cirrus uncinus bracket... and they lie to children, they're talking about strange satellites... i can't see satellites, not without Galileo's excommunication apparatus, satellites, as far as i am concerned orbit the earth in a non-visible spectrum of the vacuum... hence their orbiting outside of the visible spectrum atmosphere of the earth, i would not be able to see a satellite for the love of Michaelangelo.

Jamaican dreads
You asked me my name in your first remark We sat on opposite ends of a question mark You were dashing - made me pause, me, this independent clause standing alone, I made sense on my own But I answered you anyway. Ellipses. Now you are the verb in my heart’s contraction I am the subject and you are the action An Interrogative with a Declarative reaction An Exclamatory and then an Imperative attraction Ellipses. Your lips ease Me, the direct object of your affection, but never sentenced to an apostrophe’s possession perhaps more true- a plural “s” suggestion and the excitement behind an exclamation point’s inflection The semi-colon understands We can be on our own, but we want to stand together where our letters aren’t fetters, but the typesetter’s better measure of linguistic pleasure. We communicate through metaphors and similes Like the birds and the bees We speak across homophone lines to keep a census of our senses at all times Because words said aloud have allowed us to find meaning behind the utterance of sound- mere words and phrases jumping off of pages into brain and heart and soul when the parts become a whole And with the syntax, punctuation, grammar, and usage I’m a hopeless semantic always trying to ****** it Language- yours I understand through the myriad. Words can’t capture you. Period.

Hopeless Semantic
Body Two bodies, in a bed, on a quilt in a field, in the backseat of an '88 Nissan Pathfinder. Two bodies, touching, squeezing, caressing, biting. Blood, pooling under the skin, rushing to the brain, rushing to the genitals, sticky/hot. ****** candy, the curve of lips around a lollipop, the drinking of whiskey from the bottle, the burning sensation of MDMA insufflation. Clothes strewn across your mother's kitchen, ice cubes traced down spines, ******* ******** Oral *** with ice cubes in the mouth. Frequent ************ and a sense of unwellbeing, if you'll allow me this one usage of an unword (I can't help myself)

A Portrait of the Artist Desiring ****** Touch.
A song comes out of the speeding bhogis, Seeta is the one rendering the song. She chants that her husband has long been dead. Seeta has two sons, just like her ballads. One – Gives rhythm to her song. Other – Rubs a gentleman out of his siesta And asks for a little money. The bhogis gain momentum (Ignores the station master who shows red to stop the pacing male phallus) Long away – A girl lies down, lower than the rails. **** me, **** me, she bangs her head. I will, I will, the rails swell the train song in her ears. Though long away, Though have not heard the girl, As if she has heard something - Seeta stops singing. And her children dash out. Two hobos enter in – As if to sell sizzling peanuts. Just as to give the body a bath – Seemingly not pleased just with the rails – The male train jumps off, Into the wide sea. (Whose ****** is the sea, the breeze hums a song) A thousand crows flutters from – One’s previous birth, To – Another’s next birth. Seeta, having forgotten all her songs – Looks out for her kids. Will arrive shortly, will arrive shortly : Weary, irked and bored - Time waits at a station. (I did remember Rupesh Paul, who drew a simile between the rails and the *** worker’s nights, Anitha Thampi, who wrote about female trains, Latheesh Mohan, who noted down how the train stretches its back, Vishnu Prasad and his poem on the phallus, Prasanna Aryans usage: **** says the wheel and shit-shit , says the rail et al , while writing this poem) (Translated by Sherin Catherine)

The Train: A Huge ***** (The rail, then?)
A song comes out of the speeding bhogis, Seeta is the one rendering the song. She chants that her husband has long been dead. Seeta has two sons, just like her ballads.

The bhogis gain momentum (Ignores the station master who shows red to stop the pacing male phallus) Long away – A girl lies down, lower than the rails. **** me, **** me, she bangs her head.

"Your Mac battery is running dangerously low." It made me laugh that they used the word dangerously. Just how dangerous could a low computer battery be? Stall your Netflix watching or your Pinterest spree. But then I thought about skype calls cut off as a father overseas is watching his baby being born. Or a start of the wedding march as the bride in white stands adorn. I started to think about how something innocent can become the most dangerous thing in the world. How the usage of the medium decides the power it stores. Like a Mac battery being dangerous, another thing which is not to toy. Three words put together and said in one accord. "I Love Pizza." is nothing to remark. But "I love you." can start a dangerous. Dangerous. Spark.

Could ADD just be a term we describe a growing amount of people who's consciousness has been fundamentally shaped from an early age from a heavy exposure to videogames, culture, computer usage, television and our educational system in tandem.

An enhancing drug to increase massive body tone But let me tell you to leave that steroid drug alone Body composition improvements will be shown There are health risks that aren’t known The outside body appearance you will in the enhance But the health issues you are betting on chance Your heart will enlarge Let that awareness give you a charge Next you will have kidney problems Later everything in your body will shutdown Unless you stop steroid usage, you will be getting closer to being coffin bound The utterance will be no sound Instead to trying too quickly steroid build up Go natural and see your beauty while you hold your head up It is not worth the rush of death When it comes to enhancements there will be nothing left When you use steroids you become a walking time bomb The signal will be its own sounding alarm Stay away from steroid enhance while you still got the chance It’s natural all the way given the endurance too advance.

poetry's pronoun usage to excuse narrator
-the global strongman, and how to survive him "Our leader is a good man, he knows what is right." He needs no wicked science, all he needs is strong believers.      They don't like competence, they hate discretion.      Cast down your glance for their eager eyes. "Ang aming mga lider ay isang mabuting tao, alam niya kung ano ang tama." He is an ardent lover of justice, killing criminal vermin at all cost.      They want to bring you down, my friend,      they like us unlike them. "Wǒmen de lǐngdǎo shì yīgè hǎorén, tā zhīdào shénme shì duì de." He needs no shrewd lawyers, he senses who is guilty.      By hunger and chaos they make you foul your mouth,      our hate and cursing will set us all apart. "Nash lider - khoroshiy chelovek, on znayet, chto pravil'no." Now don't get naughty, you know, just behave.      Raise your head, man, raise your feeble voice:      let's sing our songs, let's come together. "Liderimiz iyi bir insandır, doğru olanı biliyor." He's towering above all of us, he'll crush the faintest uprising upfront.      Heureux qui comme Ulysse a fait un beau voyage      - et puis est retourne plein d'usage et raison.      Fortunate the guy who fared well on his travels      - and returned, a man of the world, full of wisdom. "Our leader is a good man, he knows what is right."

This price for peace
the narrative does not cling to classicalism of stating whether the pronoun usage is either singular or plural or both to allow an armchair of expression; after all... there's enough for us to bypass the classical philosophical debate about subject and object, simply investigating pronoun usage in relation to singularity or pluralism. there’s a theory where poetry came from, one read: cleopatra wanted to hear sweet-nothings calibrating a razor with a viper’s kiss... another read: she báthory? she báthory? she the one that turned milk into blood? she can burn in hell. i thought we were un-dialectical in the realms of concern? no... you see... poetry came from punctuated-impressionism... or a fear of it... punctuation of course, not from the impressionism... poets fear punctuation... give them a semi-colon and they treat it like a sidelined line of verse. this is poetry in mathematical equations: i had a pear(,) it was a spare(.) i had a care for traffic(-) so i missed( ) the expressions and started using an obelisk to quarter up the mammoth into chop suey... poets simple say: next line! when prose says next paragraph and the prized execution of the 100m sprint . . . (.) that’s universal alpha romeo with alfa bravo charlie delta (echo)... come on in the u-turn... give us a smile......... :), poets says... i need breathing space without sentenced timing of silence, for the toad to feed inspiration and envy! no wonder you came with the alpha - zulu alphabet given that you used ɪɡ and zoʊ... so tell me... where’s this copernican west upside down (this heliocentric west with east being the big bang)?! i'd swear the thing stopped orbiting in circles and a thing that's on it's thought started to become orbital... a fashion sense of the 60s 70s 80s 90s repeated - that's right, the whole thing became heliocentric and we became narcissists instead of solipsists in the geocentric system of worked-up plagiarism with adequate excuses.) it's here it the poets apprehensive of punctuation symbology and instead writing "sparingly," to write, e.g.: i hate         this love                 affair claimed                      to be           the world...                  i rather                          chisel chequers                          into geometry                      of x4               90º. makes sense poets begot fear of punctuation and not grammar, they serviced to explore nothing else, leaving grammar open long enough to ***** mathematics in... remember... poets are firstly concerned with punctuation... secondly with grammar... philosophy for poets is grammar; **** i'm um um so drunk i'll need to revise.

Dear Mother, dear Mother, the Church is cold, But the Ale-house is healthy & pleasant & warm: Besides I can tell where I am use’d well, Such usage in heaven will never do well. But if at the Church they would give us some Ale. And a pleasant fire, our souls to regale: We’d sing and we’d pray all the live-long day: Nor ever once wish from the Church to stray. Then the Parson might preach & drink & sing. And we’d be as happy as birds in the spring: And modest dame Lurch, who is always at Church Would not have bandy children nor fasting nor birch And God like a father rejoicing to see. His children as pleasant and happy as he: Would have no more quarrel with the Devil or the Barrel But kiss him & give him both drink and apparel.

The Little Vagabond
*understandably the english language over-uses the pronouns per se, but it's not conscious of it, poets can become conscious of this strategic blunder without the language ever realising.* over-usage of pronouns in poetry reveals ambitious & amateurish quillsmith crafting: not enough nouns; i bet the narration concerns are but a way to sideline casual politics, a lack of the english sense of personal space: fickle eroticism of teenagers when it was only an intended handshake.
