Your friend talked, 
You saw my disgust.
How could you? It wasn't.

I still called you drunk,
Two thirds of what I thought,
I should have called you hot, 
I should have told you what I wanted.

Instead you talked until I fell apart,
I realized your better off,
That we could never be in love.

Your friend talked, 
You tried to get her to stop,
Honestly I wanted more, 
But I wasn't being honest.

I was trying to be myself...

Instead you talked,
I realized you are better off,
That you would see things I never would,
That if I had told you what I wanted, 
That we could never be in love.

Trying to break free, like a caterpillar.
The feeling is of great joy and relief,
Like a child being born, finally feels.
Acronyms describe the experience,
He became, "I", in the moment,
Realized, in his essence, Idyllic,
His dreaming was all he was.
Heart curls into a ball,
Wraps himself in yarn,
Forgets the thoughts that haunt him,
It doesnt solve wants or give cause,
But he explodes in vivid color,
Looking like an inexpensive car,
He flies fast to escape the closing walls.

Paper, mind racing;
April, outside rain;
Days, time, pain.
Trial, minor inheritance,
Inside raging, vain,
Water droplet pacing.

Lies, decadence,
Left in the sunset.
Am I adept?
Think, look back.
Flies in everything,
Trying anything,
I, tried everything.

Trial, cherry picking,
Many years,
Their meaning?
A small committee,
Press, briefings:
Ideas discrete,
Their leanings.

Where is the time for healing?

LIVING WITH UNCERTAINTY

What if we thought of this uncertainty
as Jews consider our Sabbath—

As a sacred space in time?
Stop traveling.
Stop buying and selling.
Stop working.
Give up trying to make the world better than it is.

Instead, sing. Dance. Pray.
Write songs and recite poetry.
Paint the pictures from your eyes.
Walk amongst the leaves and the stars.
Touch only those to whom you have committed your life.

Sit down.
And when your mind and body have become still,
Reach out with your heart.
Know that we are connected in ways that are both terrifying and beautiful.
No one can deny that now.

Do not reach out with your hands.
Reach out with your heart.
Reach out with your words.
Reach out with all the curled tendrils
Of compassion that connect us invisibly,

To where we cannot touch each other.

Warning: this is looooooong and if you’re a sensitive individual the first parts may bother you. But hopefully the last part will inspire you. Speak your truths friends. The ones who matter will love you all the harder. #worldmentalhealthday

Hidden Stories 

They smiled, jokingly told her 
she looked tired, 
“Must’ve partied hard last night.”
Smile quietly returned, 
“just didn’t sleep too well I guess.”
She didn’t tell them how hard it was to get out of bed this morning, 
How sleep never came last night, 
How it felt like the darkness would just swallow her whole, 
How she felt hollow and empty 
and there weren’t any tears left, 
just an ache deep within 
that wouldn’t subside. 
And maybe if she just squeezed her eyes shut and stayed in that bed 
in the blacked out void, 
She wouldn’t have to face another day of faked smiles and “I’m ok” lies. 
“Just tired today I guess.”

“It’s warm today man!” 
“What’s with the long sleeves all the time?”
“Got some crazy tattoos under there?” 
He smiled, laughed along with them, 
Self-consciously ran his hands 
over his wrists. 
Over the bandages binding his secrets.
They didn’t know how close he got last night, how he almost let go, 
How so much blood, HIS blood 
swirled down the drain, 
mixing with his tears. 
He was sure no one would miss him, but he wondered if he would miss this world, 
And the good days out in the sun, 
Few and far between as they were.
What would they say if he were gone tomorrow?

“You should’ve come out with us last night. You would’ve had so much fun...”
She nodded and made those
“next time” promises, 
though she knew they were lies. 
She’d stay home again, 
Wrapped in the icy grips of loneliness, 
Which felt somehow better 
than her burning cheeks 
when the right words just wouldn’t come, or the wrong ones spilled out, 
and she felt their eyes on her,
Panic rising, thoughts frozen
Wishing she’d just stayed home, 
Away from the judgement, 
And all the wrong moves she always made

“Haven’t seen you around in a while! Doing ok?” 
His mouth smiled, head nodded, 
lips formed words he’d said so often, automatic. 
Because, really, he thought, 
How could I describe 
that moment last night, 
body curled up with forehead cold 
against the kitchen floor, 
Ears covered to block out the voices, 
Silent screams wracking his body as the panic overwhelmed him, 
No breath to speak, 
And who could he call anyway, 
How would he explain these moments of pure fear that slipped in unnoticed
and become everything, took everything, until he was a shivering shell of himself. 
Sometimes he wondered, 
if they could see through him, 
would they think him weak? 
Would they walk away...?


These people are all make-believe, 
but the experiences are not, 
taken from articles and discussions 
and sometimes even revelations from 
real-life friends. 
These are not my stories, 
but they are someone’s truths, 
Not their weakness, 
Not their short-lived sadness
that they can just “get over” if you try hard enough to make them happy. 
(My gosh do I need to remind myself of that part sometimes...)

But that doesn’t mean you stop trying. 
Love them y’all. 
Love them so damn much that you’ll sometimes break through the cracks in their self-inflicted armor. 
Listen to them, 
Give them the chance to be 
open and honest, 
And if what they say makes you flinch, imagine what it must feel like for them. 
Do something kind that makes them smile and get ready to do it again tomorrow.
Smile and laugh with them. Cry with them.
Be genuine with your 
thoughts and feelings. 
Give them space, but check on them. 
Pull them out of the dark for just a moment, say, 
“I’m here for you when you need me. 
And I always will be.” 

Mental health issues are often invisible, 
but still feel debilitating to the one 
inside that head. 
Stay educated. 
Be understanding. 
Love the hell out of each other. 
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍🤎💗

Throw back the covers on 
the incessant redundancy 
of another day. 
Putting in time for a world 
we no longer believe in, 
if ever we truly did. 
...Them rose-tinted glasses 
were long-ago shattered...
Our dedication repaid 
With more stolen hours 

Coming home with less time 
To spend with ourselves, 
Or perhaps those we purposely 
surround ourselves with, 
Than we’ll spend talking to ceiling tiles 
in the dark later on. 
Droning away the limited hours, 
The constant pull of a thumb , 
—Refreshing—
Giving our ❤️s away 
In an opinionated match game 

Finger-fucking ourselves to sleep 
Just to say we felt alive 
Before succumbing to darkness 
With a see-you-later sayonara 
Whispered into black, 
Just like the onyx air pixels 
we’ll be counting later 
to lure heavy eyelids 
back into a much-too-finite slumber 
...Or maybe the fluffy white bastards 
will do the trick 
Whatever helps you sleep at night...

Next day, the inbox the same, 
Full of spam mail we unsubscribed to 
ages ago 
That somehow keeps rearing ugly heads, hydra-like 
with a pretty new name every time, 
to keep us believing in the possibility 
that this particular lovesick prince
will be our salvation. 
DELETE to clear our foggy heads 
While trying to remember 
which ones are the liars. 
The mirage keeps on shifting. 

Repeat, repeat, 
World keeps on turning, 
pulling us along, 
A child’s toy on a string. 

But what if, for a moment, 
We turn away from from the 
unending axial spins, 
Sidestep the scythe again, 
seek out the sunrise...
Find the beauty brave souls! 
Crack open that Earth-shaped geode and search out the wild world within 

And you know what...
Go buy you a new pair 
of those pretty pink shades

I may have recently found a love of haikus...enjoy a heap of them! 


Such a small creature 
A fascination in green 
Life measured in hops 

Grading seems endless
Constantly processing...sigh, 
Your work is due friends 

Bike accident, ow!
Purple bruise on my kneecap 
Tiny tragedy 

Dead creature, a gift! 
Spare me your adoration 
Love in kitty form 

Humanity ruins
Each other, our home, all things
The one true constant 

Build each other up 
A constant stream of kindness 
Love creating joy 

Sleep eluding me 
Again I’m counting critters 
Heavy eyes please close 

This day could be good 
But only if you live it 
Stay here, keep trying

Tiny puzzles these
Haikus pieced together and 
Shared with awesome friends

You would not believe your eyes
If you seen all the dark thoughts,
I keep at tide inside my head
If only that was true,
I can no longer control
these racing thought,
I'm a danger to myself
I've succumb to pain,
I've felt numb for too long
I inflict pain to just feel something, 
Thoughts constantly racing
Never a chance to think straight,
I've found a healthy affliction 
In the pain I inflict upon myself,
I can feel it now
Like cardiac arrest,
The slip of the chair
The tension around my neck,
Ill try my best,
The pull of the blade
Against my wrist,
I've been trying my best
How much do I invest,
Before its all over
No longer numb,
My Demons
They catch me when I slip,
Motor control loss
Mindless acts,
Just a permanent solution 
To a temporary feeling,
Exactly how long is temporary
All i want is for this living nightmare to be over,
These demons consuming me alive
Fighting is no longer a solution,
Don't stop me now
I know now noone would shed a tear,
Noone would shutter a sound
To stop me,
Forget yesterday
I dont wanna see tomorrow,
Remember when you told me
That I was better off dead,
I knew it from the start
I was never any good to anyone,
You can believe it
When im not here tomorrow,
Today I find something great
Today I find a Healthy Affliction.

im so high
and not because of drugs
but because of love

and i meant what ive meant
it’s so nice

i just wanna be yours
wanna be close
wanna mean more
to you
i just wanna see you
wanna kiss you
wanna hear more
from you

and baby maybe it’d a big mistake
to tell you i cant live without you,
but only the dead dont make mistakes
and im so alive when i think ‘bout you.

i hope you’ll find peace in me
cause i found peace in you
and i know that im kinda freaky,
it’s cuz im crazy in love with you.

for freedom id give my life 
for love id give my freedom 
for you id give my love
my life now has a reason 

im trying so hard not think about you,
not fall in love with you.
but what if it’s too late?
and if it’s too late,
baby what should i do?

what should i do when everything’s against this love?
what should i do when i dont know what you want?
what should i do when i have so many questions
but dont know the answers?
what should i do when,
what should i do when,
baby what should i do?

Diablo II,
Why make me wait for games?
My fate lament, give it away,
Give it away, give it away now.
Fleas of the carpet,
People of the parking lot,
Can you not?
Trying to make something,
They stand about, puffy,
Chests golden, coffers copper,
Rusted in their velour valor,
Failing to soil of fewer flowers.

Open prose with my dignity,
I am simple, Iambs, imagery,
Trying to oven toast,
With my sympathy lost.

I hope for you another loss,
Scotch socials, often postures,
Costumes oft. 
Walls filled with posters,
To wish you, where I was,
As if my feelings forgotten.

Open hose of complacency,
Teach me your giving ways,
Leach lead onto my face,
My children's faces,
My foodstuff casings.
Tell me of today:
"I Take not, responsibility.
Taste, not digestibility, 
My style succinct,
My rubber hole,
Leaves rubber taste."

The thing that hurts the most.
You calmed my storms.
You helped make sense of the chaos.
You plucked me from brokenness.
Helped me find strength.

I don't know what it was.
But just looking in your eyes.
Filled my soul with peace.
I miss it.
I miss the quiet.
The calm.
I miss us.

I'm starting to feel broken again.
Empty inside.
Trying my best.
Not to let anyone see.

But there are days.
Where control escapes me.
Do you think of me?
As often as I think of you?
Do you remember my name?
What it once meant to you?

I look back on that day. March 10th.
Where I lost you.
Where every image I had of you.
Just shattered.
You were no longer a refuge.
You became a source of pain.
You still are to this day.

I blame myself for it.
For my losing you.
It's been three months. 
Realizing it's true.
I don't cry as much. Though my heart still does ache.
Try as I might; I can't bring myself to hate;
You. The situation. Us.

I want to throw it under the proverbial bus.
I can't. Because the sky still reminds me of you. It was our destiny. Our sky. The world was going to be ours. 
Accept it. It's over now. These dreams just won't come true. I need to accept that what we are. Is through.

I sat under the tree glancing nearby,
hoping to find someone who could see me cry.
Dreaming about a happier place,
I stood up and walked speeding up my pace.
I saw a girl sitting on the green bench looking as if trying to hide,
Just like me maybe no one was there by her side;
and with loneliness surrounding and head down 
she suddenly looked up gazing around.
Seeing her face, I turned back in trauma
and saw something which I could never forget
"Why do you look back? This agony and pain ruined my life
Its about that rain of acid which turned my cheerful life into a life so vapid".
With tears all gone, I held her head high
"there is no need for you to cry."
You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen
and I am not lying because I totally mean.
All punishments for the guilty are too small,
it is now time for him to fall.
I then realized that in this world of misery and sadness, there is a lot to see
Even the acid victims have the right to live just as a common girl like me.

It's you
I want
I just mean
Do it
Want me
I'll scream
Drown them
More feelings
Of wanting
Longing
For something
Aloof
Trot of the hoof
Fall from the floor
Land on the proof
Smile at the whore
Missing her tooth
Trying to score
Good times with the roof
Ease to cool her
Down and pass out
Songs of abusers
Speaking of peace
Echo through darkness
Then she falls asleep
For something
Standoffish
I just mean
It you whose the problem
Not me
I just solve 'em
I can't be wrong
'Cuz I'm peaceful
And honest
And a really chill guy
If you don't mind me talking
At lengths just to show
I'm not racist
I'm mocking
Their race
'Cuz it's funny
Not Angry
Just Loving
That Pain
From Above
Automatic
Dark static
Creatures of habit
Throwing outrage around
Myself I won't have it
Outraged at myself
Myself never planning
To be holed in a cell
Living under you bandits
You won't have it yourselves
Yourselves being outraged
At all of yourselves
For all of your work
Education and health
Yell at your brothers
Strangers
Mothers
Escaping from hell
By throwing dirt
At the world
Insurmountable selves
By the billions
All with a version of self
I'm doing it now
Laying a seed
To expand
And develop
I mean
I just want to scream
These guys I girl dog about
I'm mad
'Cuz I'm me

A Ballad of the Soft Sophist;
When trying to scream,
They said 'oh, stop this!
Stop the sophist speaking free.
Sophist softly speak to me.
And make me pay,
And teach me duly,
And teach me how to write so bluesy!'

Sophist took their time instead,
Folding shapes from paper heads.
Writers spending days in bed;
Dazed and gazing at their pens.
At night they sleep and then they start again.

A ballad often spoke softest;
When the sophists screamed,
They said 'oh, stop this;
Education should be free.
Sophist slowly speak to me.
In loving way,
In budding grace,
In virtue is the value based.

I am a part time self sustained independent investigative journalist. I am also a writer and I like to put my ideas into poetry and art. My focus areas: to analyze, measure and expose corruption, manipulation, exploitation and extortion within corporations, governments and religion structures. I love my job. =D ♡☆

So. . .in Star Wars. . .do you ONLY blame the evil emperor, or do you acknowledge the Storm Troopers part in the atrocities too? Now compare that to real life. The Empire HAS NO POWER if there's no Troops to follow the evil orders of the War Mongering Elite Banksters.

So let me get this straight. You think it's bad for our taxes, money, and time going towards free and proper education, free food, free health-care,  free energy, and housing to our own nation, but you're perfectly fine with a fake Federal Reserve ponzi scheme bank that's a private owned mafia organization driving us into debt slaves, and funneling our money into Isreal and going to war with almost every country that's not us to steal their land, gold, oil, and drug reserves?

And if we say we should spend our money on us and Peace, you pull out the bullshit card and call us slackers and that we have to earn and slave for our shelter, food, health, and energy. Sometimes, you have to stop being politically correct, stop being nice, stand up and say fuck you and your war mongering, and your stupid.

Quit excusing people's actions. Your patriotism is a joke. You blindly follow the lies of the Elite, and don't even research what the industrial Military Complex does with your taxes. And your blind patriotism supports the canon fodder churning out of young men to die early at commands of rich old men lusting for power. The whole entire system needs uprooted to follow the path of Peace.

☆It's time for the end of the Rothschild-Rockefeller Empire, the Federal Reserve, and for Israel debt.☆

The United States government and it's military IS the terrorists. Let me say it again, with no sugar coating. . .ahem. . .THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT AND IT'S MILITARY IS IN FACT THE LARGEST MOST CORRUPT TERRORIST ORGANIZATION ON PLANET EARTH.

I am a pacifist and I will NEVER support war, mass murder, genocide, and institutionalized indoctrinated violence. I do very much respect our MISLEAD fallen troops, but I do not support our corrupt terrorist military. "Just following my orders" No, follow your heart. Support for the constitution of the United States includes looking out for enemies and threats both foreign and domestic, such as the terrorist cells within Washington DC, known as the Legislative Judicial, and Executive branches that prostitute war and indoctrinated institutionalized violence.

I fight for Peace for all Nations and I will settle for nothing less. These wars are NOT for freedom. They are attacks on other countries, while they defend themselves. They are conducted for the bankers, the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers, for the Federal Reserve, the CFR, the IMF, for Israel debt, for Wall Street. For those leaders who profit from war and do not fight the battles themselves. For the evil greed of rich men behind the curtain and racket of war. For those who want to secure and dominate other countries oil drugs gold and resources.

Politicians are puppets for the banksters and they won't change the game. Don't vote for those who stand for this. Send a clear message. Watch their actions, not their words, and see where their loyalty belongs to. Have them discuss the following: The Monetary System, The Federal Reserve, Fractional Banking, Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Bilderburg, Debt Slaves, Voluntary Servitude, the 14th amendment, The Basic Income platform, The Venus Project, International Monetary Fund (IMF), Council of Foreign Relations (CFR), and The Bank for International Settlements (BIS). I would love to watch them try to dance around these topics and try to distract you instead of actually addressing these issues.

Peace is attainable. You just have to want it extremely bad. You have to want it like you want the oxygen to breath. ♡ 

Be warned, I'm about to reach out and touch your soul and your mind.  Make sure it's lubricated. I have investigated. I look around the world and I'm exasperated. To be quite honest I'm nauseated. Countries and innocent citizens being annihilated. The money system becoming hyperinflated. Our water poisoned and fluorinated. Our food and air contaminated. Populations being dumbed down and heavily medicated. Our consent taken away in terms of being vaccinated.

Women and children murdered, abused, appallingly fornicated. Laws infringing on morals and becoming overregulated. How in the hell do you not feel violated? Tyranny, famine and genocide being tolerated, incorporated and indoctrinated. Ecosystems being destroyed and violated. Animals, any species other than human initiated from birth into the human's horror of slavery and mass genocide and a daily basis.

I see the injustice and I'm beyond aggravated. Even worse is our own government is behind many atrocities being generated! They decieve us and have us horrifyingly manipulated. This Truth is not false, it isn't hallucinated. Open your minds and you will see the Truth illuminated. This bullshit has me consistently frustrated. I've just gotten escalated, surely quite animated.

The world's views are backdated, segregated  and unnecessarily complicated. Our views on "wealth" has been sadly misappropriated. Why has the quest for peace been procrastinated and stagnated? Love and Peace has me fascinated. Mother Earth has me infatuated. Her Love has my mind wonderfully intoxicated. In any form, any medium, World Peace for all species needs communicated.

People need to be compassionated and realize we are all one, not disassociated and discriminated. We need to get coordinated. Our minds need stimulated. This hate in the world has got me suffocated. Our message of love will make the hateful disoriented. The Powers that be do not have me intimidated. Their hateful opposition has me delightfully invigorated. Our cry for humanity needs to be illustrated. 

Your expectations for me have been severely underestimated. You didn't realize the power of my voice, surely miscalculated. I speak out and stand up for what I see, and I've become alienated. I've become isolated. My focus in life has been alternated.

I'm liberated. Watch out, I'm opinionated. My mind is emancipated and sophisticated. I'm exuberated. I'm properly educated. My learning has become accelerated. My pineal gland is activated. My speech is articulated. My knowledge has accumulated and cultivated. My mind has just masterbated. My Truth is unadulterated. My Truth is authenticated and certificated. It cannot be debated, negated, nor be invalidated. My stance cannot be negotiated.

People's ignorance has me unequivocally irritated. We are all meant to be loved, every species, not dominated. You should have seen me coming, should have anticipated. You should have appreciated. I cannot be compared, duplicated, or assimilated. I've studied the world and I've become acculturated. Everyone, we need to unite, our bodies, minds, and souls detoxicated. Our momentum will not be deviated. Our drive towards peace has become obligated.

Powers that be want us depopulated. They want us fractionated, our minds distracted and fragmented. Powers that be want me and my voice incarcerated. And before long...I'll be nominated, legislated, after that inaugurated. Once I'm in office, war will be iradicated, violence eliminated. World Peace will be estimated, a new regime approximated. Tyranny deactivated. Hate evaporated. Black Ops secrets iradicated. I might be assassinated, but my message will live on, celebrated and circulated. The quest for peace has been reactivated. ♡

You speak in tongues.
Surreal.
I see through you.
The veil.
The curtain of forever.
Illusion.
Can it be truly so?
Disillusion.
I'm wide awake,
Only to see the dream.

I got the world on my shoulders
Troubles rolling like boulders
Throw dirt on me for mistakes
No love in these high stakes
I see through the games
Guilt flows and blames
Diamonds showering the mind
Physical dimensions buckle and bind
Truth distorted by distractions
The future preys on my actions
Delusions bring me to my knees
Pursuit of happiness in the breeze
Current rushing as I swim upstream
Merrily merrily life is but a dream.

The rabbit hole
Investigative mole
Tumble tumble
Society crumble
Fraud amuck
Now your stuck
Head full of doubt 
Fight to get out
Once was blind
Explore the mind
Examine the pain
Within cultural stain 
Authority a joke
Let's peace let's smoke

To be a good man lost
Swimming in a satanic sea
Devil's fire or devil's frost
What the hell do you want from me
Sitting here in contemplation
Dreaming of my reclamation
Change up style, I cry, I boast
Missing what I miss the most
Heart tucked safely behind my wall
Hold resistance so I don't fall
Stole my innocence from me jerk
To get it back I'll have to work
I see you, you sadistic fuck
Counting time, on the side of luck
You may hold me captive in your world
But my heart will shine unfurled.
I'll never join your dark side
The light follows me in my stride
I know your scared that I'll begin
For you know you'll never win.

Every night I go to bed
Horrors running through my head
Demons cheering like they've won
I wish at night I had someone
To wrap me up, hold me close
Stroke my hair, love me most
Whisper in my ear those sweet lies
Sing me those sweet lullabys 
Tell me everything will be alright
Help me get through one more night

I lay my head down to rest.
Hoping to escape you.
Nay, foolish fleeting hopes
You haunt me in my dreams.
I wake and you haunt me
Through my days.
Day and night
Yin and yang
Around and around we go.
You make me sad
You drive me mad.
Yay, I can never be rid of you.
But yet if I could
I would still never leave you
I chase my tail
I moan I wail
But I will always love you.

My heart sways 
My mind disobeys
You hold the latch key 
Suffering on one bended knee 
I try to tell myself to resist
Try to guide solely through the mist
That lonely road through jungle wild
You make me feel just like a child
Forever reaching for destination 
Into your arms or to damnation

A bond that cannot be broken
Cosmic love, words unspoken. 
Colors of magic and mystery
Your vision makes the tapestry. 
Cannot be duplicated nor compared
Your impact, my heart unprepared.
You know how to make light bend
Darkness forever on the mend.

Phantom Pain.
The thing that's missing
is the thing you feel the most.
Makes it hard to forget.
They say time heals all wounds.
It's not healing this broken heart.
Forever damaged.

The Ghost in the machine.
The phantom shadow.
The delectable game of hide and seek.
Peekaboo. I see you.
Search and find.
Finding answers
only to gain more questions.
Yin and yang. Round and round.
Dark and Light.
Esoteric and existential.
Flow like water
burn like fire.
Everything all at once
Balance and stumble.
Rise and fall.
The Game. The Dance.
All we have is the Dance.
Hold my hand.
Be my song.

As above So below
Reap what you sow
You are what you eat
Stop eating meat
Meat eating is the leading cause
Of your death, disease and flaws
Big Pharma and FDA
With your life you pay
They don't want you healthy
Than they wouldn't be wealthy
Stop believing their con game
Research it or yourself is to blame

Living the muggle 
Hustle and struggle
Got a fast track dream
Paddling life upstream
Reap what you sow 
As above so below
You are what you eat
Savages killing for meat
Humbled by the Truth
Clark Kent in my booth
Throw on the costume red cape 
The public will smear and rape
Your name because you dare
To rise above societies sick snare
Plants have protein and health
Public forgetting about true wealth
Sacrificing a heart for a taste bud
Squandering spirit growth in mud
Do you now see the term mudblood?
Humanity spewing genocidal flood.
Zoos are cages, Humanity's prison
Can't see it than you didn't listen
Can't handle hypocrisy so hide
In your butchery kitchen confide
With your fellow savages alore 
Bang my name against the floor
Healthy alternatives on the street
In this game I got you beat
Erect a wall and expect me to climb
Truth through rhythm and rhyme.

"They poison the air
They poison the water
They poison vaccines
For our sons and daughters

Call it conspiracy
But it doesn’t phase me
Watch some world Star Hip Hop
And see if I’m crazy

Dumb upon dumb
The dumbing down worked
They can’t answer a question
But they know how to twerk

And before you think
That you’re any better
With your degree in hand
And pocket protector 

Answer this
You voting for left or the right
Illusion of choice
In a rigged fight 

Television for
Multiple personalities
One watches “News” 
The other “Reality”

Both have the same owners 
Both have the same writers
Both have the same purpose
To kill our desires 

Working our jobs
We are now so complacent
Photographing our food
Is now entertainment

We can’t afford thrills
We can’t even relax
Can you even clear your head
Without a Xanax 

Or Prozac or Ambien
Go down the list
Who gave us these issues
That Big Pharma can “fix”

They say harmful ingredients
In such small amounts
Can’t hurt anyone
But it’s paramount

69 doses
Of vaccines
Is what’s on schedule
By the time you’re 16

 Pharmaceutical Lobbyists
Are second to none
In the past 7 years
They spent $800 million

That’s chump change in investment return
Once you see
Cancer alone is a
$500 billion dollar a year industry

As I mentioned before
This is ONE of the ways
They’ve taken control
Of the people these days

We pay to be poisoned
I know that sounds nuts
Got a computer
Bill Gates thanks us

Watch “Innovating to Zero”
Gate’s Ted Talk stand
To reduce carbon emissions
A population control plan

In his own words
Here is the goal
“If we do a great job with
Vaccines, Health Care & Birth Control”

Look at the millions of dollars
He’s so generously given
To make geoengineering
A cure for emissions

Look up at the sky
Contrails, my ass
Gates talks about sun blocking
With sulfuric acid

That shit rains down
Into our water supply
Seeps into our crops
You can see the trees die

Maybe I’m crazy
Or maybe I’m not
But there’s things that I notice
That happen a lot

Like when important bills pass
It’s “sleight of hand” so you miss
Don’t look at that
Hey, look at this

On April 18th,
2013
CISPA passed
During the Boston Bombing 

During the scare of Ebola
The UN passed
What essentially is
A Global Patriot Act

You know, The Patriot Act, that excludes
Due process for the nation
And leaves extremist
Up to interpretation 

Which leads to things
Like TSA, Guantanamo Bay
And invasions of privacy
By the NSA

If you have nothing to hide
Why do you care about this
Because of the things that make you
A suspected terrorist

Owning a gun, or precious metals
Activism is too far
Or rocking a Ron Paul sticker
On the back of your car

The “Read The Bill Act”
Is proposed legislation
That requires Congress to read
Bills proposed for our nation

Are you kidding me
It’s not common sense
To actually READ the bills
Are you that fucking dense

Oh, get all offended
By the word I just used
You should be offended
By what’s in your food

Reading the labels
Of the food that we eat
Requires a linguist
To get a science degree

I can’t pronounce
Most of the words on the list
Let alone know
What the hell that it is

They don’t want to label
What’s GMO
But have no problem labeling
A race, religion or homo

Labels on people
To further divide
To make us forget
That we are divine 

I’m not a Socialist
But I am entitled
To my personal freedom
And to protecting my child

And I refuse to ask permission
Before I speak my mind
Like they teach the children in school
Before they form a line

Don’t get me started
On education
Our kids didn’t even make top 10
When comparing the nations

But we were #1
In defense spending
We’re the great war machine
And the war’s never ending

In all our high schools
They’re trying to recruit
The next generation
To strap on the boots

To protect our freedom
But we are right here
So why are they sending
All our kids over there

Bribing them
With free education
You’ll see the whole world
While you bomb all the nations

Protecting our freedom
Or oil interest again
Or use economic hitmen to establish
A Central Banking System

And when you come home
After war messed with your mind
You can live on the streets
And commit suicide

I mean no disrespect
To those who’ve laid down their life
For the love of the people
They paid the ultimate price

I’m just pissed off
At the lies that are told
By government puppets
To get wars sold

And as we’re on the verge
Of World War 3
It’s our DUTY
To question the powers that be

But by all means
Pledge your allegiance
To a corrupt government
Who stripped all our freedoms

With the world’s highest
Rate of incarceration
Making huge profits
For privately owned corporations

Contractual agreements
Are all in place
To keep the cells full
Of various inmates

Doesn’t even matter
If they’re violent or not
Then promote thru the media
That there’s a war on cops

So that upstanding citizens
Will then start to defend
Our men and women in blue
Who have swore to defend 

To “Protect and Serve” 
But that’s not the case at all
Supreme Court ruled their only duty
Is to uphold the law

So it’s not to serve the people
It’s to serve the state
That’s why there’s more cops writing tickets
Than investigating rapes

I hate ending on negativity
From all the above
Because that’s not who I am
I’m about peace and love

And if your perspective is different
That’s alright
I’m not trying to argue
I don’t want to fight

And I’m not trying
To change your stance
But please research
Cognitive dissonance

It’s a hard pill to swallow
At least it was for me
But once you get past it
It’s really quite freeing

And frustrating, and depressing
There’s ups and there’s downs
But I’m thankful I know
What I know now

Because now I can try
To help my kids
To change how things are
In this world that we live

If you don’t hurt others
Or infringe on their rights
I’ll defend your freedom
Till the day that I die

We don’t need rulers to govern
Because power corrupts
Just defend one another
And spread peace and love"

After everything I see
Before me in the seats
Cynics in the streets
Dissecting the diseased
Everything I see
Finding something to believe
Giving credence to contrarians
Heretic as it seems
I laugh
Just trying to fit in
Kidding like a kid
Laughing
Making them believe
Nothing as it seems
Only people watching
People watching leaves
Quietly in peace
Raging afterwards
Sighing in relief
Totally alone
Utterly at peace
Vexed with my existence
Waiting patiently
Xeroxing mentally
Yakking at the internet
Zoning out on poetry
