the hardest thing to get out of is a system
one system leads to another system
system are made for problems
systems do not solve them
Systems form institutions
though systems are geared to help
there are no solutions
the real problem lies deep in the system
systematically we are dramatically
drawn by the government cheese
like bee's to honey trees
forced down on to our knees
to beg for our needs to be met
worth more than the wages we get
though we may swell the plan
in the grand scheme of things
is for us to rebel against
the system causing us to fail
though we past with high test scores
we find that our grades are poor
we are sore and hell no
we can't take no more
they are in full riot gear
waiting for us to come through that door
just to be thrown to the floor
though we may follow its hard
to trust those who are hollow
they give us food stamps
but who's minding the store
the system is a maze with corridors
forcing us to feed on each other
like carnivores once we get over the hedge
don't look down we are standing on the ledge
though we may fall off it's too shallow to drown in

Loose (11052025)I had a mini meltdown I'm proud of the little meltdown I peacefully snapped and said "I don't want to talk no more" and went no contact there's this thing that was always difficult for me to grasp attachments is the cause of suffering I had a knot inside me that kept me sick with all sorts of diagnosis and medicine only to open my eyes and realize I tied the knot |

Literal Calculations (10232025)you don't have to be a mathematical genius to know when things aren't adding up lately things ain't been adding up certain situations and stories being told about certain situations don't make logical sense especially when there's missing pieces of information no reasonable or likely explanation for the situation there's always air and opportunity for clarification to clear the static it's hard to dispute the truth it's safer to stay out the loop when a strong desire to know could tighten the noose |
If He Only Had A Heart (10232025)rich and powerful people listen up you're nothing without a hand you're nothing without a servant you don't don't know how to clean a toilet you don't know how to use a toilet brush you're nothing without a butler you can't do it yourself you're helpless without the help you're nothing without a maid you never made a bed you're nothing without a cook you don't know how to boil a egg all a rich and powerful man can do is shutdown lock down turn off push a button flip a switch pull a lever they're nothing without a bidet they don't know how to wipe their own a** what is a master without servants what is a king without subjects what is a farmer without frield hands a rich and powerful man will demolish a house while standing in it he will claim he's innocent with every breath he takes he can't admit he made a mistake when the truth is exposed he calls it fake willing to let a country go broke for a tax break fire the best man and hire a yes man weaponize the strong arm of the law to... |

Spin Around (10222025)I wonder if you like my music I wonder if you like my song I wonder if you dance I wonder if you like my music I wonder if you sing along I wonder if you dance I wonder if you like my music I wonder if you like the tone I wonder if I could sit down to write you a poem I wonder if you dance I wonder if you like my music I wonder if you like the sound I wonder what you do if I played the piano and sung you a song I wonder if I could touch you without hands I wonder if you dance I wonder if you feel the vibe I wonder if you dance |
The Idea & The Emotion (10212025)lending a voice to the struggle to create order and meaning out of chaos "a poet gotta write" taking the tiniest partical crafting it into something remarkable "a poet gotta write" like a contender gotta bout like a owl gotta whoo "a poet gotta write" a urgent need not merely an artistic hobby "a poet gotta write" like a sworn oath to observe and reflect the truth of the world "a poet gotta write" connecting the beauty and pain of humanity shaping words to give form to the formless "a poet gotta write" a vessel of expression channeling emotions that need to bleed to expose a need to heal connecting words to create verses and phases "a poet gotta write" to escape and find a way to articulate inner turmoil "a poet gotta write" fanning the flame without expectation of fame "a poet gotta write" transforming pain and sorrow into something tangible to navigate the flow let it resonate "a poet gotta write" giving life to the invisible a profound need to bring life to the unseen... |
Undertone (10192025)I love you but I failed at loving you how you needed me to love you I was willing to learn but you couldn't teach me how to I'm a visual learner you couldn't show me the way to your heart when half of the time you didn't know which way to go you didn't know north from south east from west you couldn't draw me a map I patiently waited for you to decide what you had a taste for you never could decide I always had to be the one to decide for you no matter what I chose on the menu you didn't like I smiled while screaming inside "SHE'S NEVER SATISFIED" for all the years we spent swapping DNA when you bump your noggin I get a headache when I left I said "it's not you it's me" that's not true I was lying through my teeth I would tell you anything to break free besides all the run ins we had a good run we had some good times shared a lot of laughs we had a load of fun even though we had to color the blues to make a difficult situation brighter I gave you a slew of clues you couldn't read th... |
