The ever-poking knives; are back.


Nobody ever won,
a seat at the highest table,
whilst won-dering.
And, to be constantly;
marred by a demagogic dream’r,
is a storm,
of reveries thundering.
A costly sermon
minus refunding Him;
makes an irate, antagonistic –
hurricane of a redeemer.

Whilst your back
is turned, knives will poke;
fun at you.
When your knack
is spurned, the wicked spoke;
not of truth.
While your shack
is burned, evil’s smoke;
chokes anew…

No matter your serial
number.
The seas, rivers, and, waves;
crash asunder.
Filling gardens,
cities, and, graves.
Technological roads –
forbidden knowledge;
did pave.
Yet, generations are left here,
to wonder,
their brains forever to wander,
mental marathons amble, and, lumber,
on how; many, souls will be saved.

But, that question;
is already answered.
When the meek; become mighty.
And, the downtrodden;
are lifted up by the righteous.
By good conscience,
and, moral upstanders.
Whom delight;
in the defeating of cancers.

The antidote,

will make;

a martyred saint,

of the;

vicious, viridian virus.



Don’t, just, be a star. Become a galaxy.


I’m often, mentally, brought to my knees, with melancholy, when I think, of, the utter callousness, of, the human species.

My cerebellum’s, figurative, grey, grazed patellae are; a metaphor, which compound the pleading, within my mind, for mankind to stop, and, think.

Think about our selfish, greedy, unflinching nature.

Think about our incredible lack of foresight. Foresight, for not only our fellow genus, but, the wider amalgam, of; wildlife, biodiversity, planetary ecology, and, ultimately, our world, and, universe.

Our arrogance, and, sense of self, have become, our own baited, foolish, avaricious universes.
Solitary, loathsome universes, filled with;
galaxies of material wishes,
solar systems of Internet based gratification,
constellations of exploitation,
and, nebulae that beckon fruitless, divisive competition.

All in the hope of ‘getting ahead’ and/or ‘becoming a star’.

Ironically, we are all composed, of; stardust.

And, on that basis, I believe that we should do everything, humanly possible, to create our own; galaxy of justice – here on Earth.

A galaxy, where, instead of compete for monetary wealth, (a practice which has long seen; each, and, every genius star, capable of contributing any egalitarian offering to humanity – “miraculously” being snuffed out by the establishment e.g. Nikolai Tesla etc.) we, lift one another up, amasse, and, unite – within our; ninety-nine-percent nebula.

By eradicating, the elitist; Black Hole, we, together; can create real, monumental change. The kind of change, which will, echo, throughout; the generations, heavens, realms, and, multiverses.

Whilst standing idly by, the so-called ‘elites’ will continue to;
imbibe our misery,
bathe in our systematic poverty,
mop up any hope of our revolution,
and, spew propaganda, via every form of media, to poison the minds of; every generation, it has the manical pleasure of tainting.

The time is now to; expand our minds, gravitate to one another’s plight, and, escape, revolt, and destroy; the elitist Black Hole, which delights in our unchained servitude.

Don’t, just, be a star. Become a galaxy.



Covered in shit.


I see a multitude
of civilisations
numbering millions.

All succumbing
to the human condition.

The ignorant bliss
of futile competition.

And the want for nothing
of the conquering
“Williams”.

The powerful knowledge
desiring
only it’s passing.

Hedonistic idolatry
rooted in poisonous soil.

Blood, sweat, and, tears
of proletariat toil.

A glorious revolution
never to happen.

Propaganda posited
in the national curriculum.

Bonfires burnt
laden with gunpowder.

Squaddies sent to die
while officers cower.

Bees upturned
in their graveyard capitulum.

Vox populi turned
by demagogue’s spit.

Creed, race, and, religion
used to divide.

Subtraction of heroes
dying inside.

And, at the very bottom
of the mountain,

ninety-nine per cent of us; covered in shit.



marching worlds, january’s faces.


stuck
betwixt the tread,
of;

two marching worlds.

weathered, weary brows.
eclipsed grimaces,
curled.

the gravity,
en-masse –
renders souls stomped.

drudging.

unequal, obtuse gaits.
hateful, stubborn heels;

dug in.

taking steps,
to alleviate;

the-ever-climbing-stress.

fallen
– on deafened ears.
forsaken, and, too inwardly –
obsessed.

obsessed –
by the trampling hoof,
of;

right, and,
wrong.

right, left, right, left.

foot on the neck
of a swan’s;

final song.

and, the two jaded faces of
january;

cry,

down to their single-file –
soles
of white.

measuring
irreparable ill-treament
in feet, and, inches;

dark, and, light.



A half-forgotten song


Time is a half-forgotten song.


Each softly sung,
then,

disappearing

note;

is an alarming, eternal reminder
of being secondary
to a larger symphony.

Errors made in haste
din short like catchy,
hooking choruses.

Whilst unmade amends
become musical lessons
that echo;

lengthy, lecturing, lifelong – laments.

Yes, time is a half-f…



A cross to bear that bore a hole.


Innocence violently
punctured;
penetrated,
by the seemingly;
pious,
“preacher-teacher”.

The irony is never
missing;
when finding out,
for real,
the encountered
misery;
in the book of Job,
im-
maturely.

Keeping the faith;
through gritted,
infant
mandible.

A cross to bear
that bore a hole.
Apart – lost from
a heart, and, soul.

The day you came;
to geld a foal.
Invaded deep;
with devil’s goal.

You tried to break
my spirit
by taking away
my virtue.
Lucifer rendered
you complicit;
knowing I would
never hurt you.

And, through all the
hardship, fear, and, pain.
All the anguish
that I live through.
All the times I could have
given up, and, gone insane.

I should hate you, and, want you;

dead.

But, better yet,

I forgive you.



Painting the frown; Dread.


Shifting the gear,
clutching at nostrils.
Eight hours;
of undulating, pedalled pleasure.
Communally imbibing Christ’s
blood, like, twelve apostles.
Resurrection; found in a spirit’s –
double measure…

A snifter of hope –
blown into a smoky bottle.
Three graveyard shifts later,
the zombie’s bottleneck is throttled.
Followed by –
three days of manic, forsaken terror.
The fear imprisoned mind;
crucified; by pedantic Aristotle…

Painting the frown;
Dread.
A beer-goggled gaze –
locks onto a clown’s ruby-red smile.
Brushstrokes of panic,
turn the landscape;
a greyer shade of lead.
Judah’s lion, and, lioness;
have already been defiled.
The fledgling doves;
have found heavenly peace –
as; vertically, they have fled…

But, for, we – desolate few;
escape is futile.
Eden has gone.
From, ethereal garden, to, shed.
All trees, plants,
flowers, bushes,
and, wooden panels,
have been collectively burnt, and, shred.
By pasty, secateur-ing devils – that beguile.
Who ask for details,
to stop, and, search,
the saintly, for a while…

Cuff, beat, confine, and, brutalise,
without proving need; the “lowerbred”.
In their eyes,
a twinkling morning star,
cast us down.
But, righteous children; always rise.
Ascending high above –
Babylon’s screaming, burning lies.
Losing blueish, busied noses,
to spite;
in the face of systematic –
destruction, and, denial.



Lost, properly


Another

night lost –

to this infernal game

of sleep. Another light lost –

to this internal

flaming

heap.


Another day, found; wanting,

ever-seeking, left

behind. Suffer

darkness;

unfounded: daunting,

ever-creeping, when in mind.


Another time or another place,

Another line on another face,

Another calm before the storm,

Another baby to be born.

Another life is another death,

Another fight for another breath,

Another want, another need,

Another plot – for which to bleed.

Another jab, another hook,

Another play – not by the book,

Another lie becomes the truth,

Another, “why?” crushed under boot.

Another step in lands of Hinter,

Yet, another long, bleak winter,

One more liberty carelessly lost,

Bitterly frozen by piercing frost.


Another

toll cost – to

the extending tarmac

adam. Another soul lost – to

the never-ending

blackened

chasm.


Another scarlet debtor, found;

humanity is justly,

repossessed.

Smothered faces

turn raging red, thrusting,

brutality; into Robin’s breast.


Persona non grata


Requiem

“will that make me look sexy, then?”

A pubescent teen

with nothing, not even self-esteem.

“Will that make them accept me, then?”


Acquiesce

to the authority of stress

of adulthood’s cold compromise;

the coatless blizzard of the wise,

final kiss by blue lipped death.


Ad astra

far away from a living disaster.

Breaking fleshed cocoon of rust

and becoming a star; stardust.

Intergalactic; invoked forever-after.
