Prophecy…

I’m breathing

and I’m living,

not exactly as expected,

or hoped,

perhaps.

Nonetheless…

Twists and turns of life,

of knives in back,

after all,

will screw with potential,

dreams,

and glasses half full.

…

People

and perfidy.

…

Do you really want to know

what the future holds?

Nazi Seeds, Today’s “Prestige” & Desire

The Nazis “lost”,

but actually they won,

(seeds) in your hearts and minds,

the machines you drive, desire.

… Money and prestige

trumps morality.

Cattle (aka The Resistance Starts Here (I Hope))

So,

at airport security,

I refused to take my wristwatch off,

a Swatch, I know and love,

but, alas, the more you bend it

the sooner the strap will crack.

…

A simple thing, I told them,

an unnecessary futility.

…

So,

they tore my flight ticket

and took me away,

arrested.

Surely that’s not commensurate.

Golden Rule, Society’s Fool

The world is an amazing place,

full of self-centered assholes.

…

“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you!”

To me, it’s fundamental, the basis of society,

and peaceful coexistence;

to most, alas,

it seems, an optional extra,

in between forgotten Birthday cards

and flatulence.

Wannabes…

Yesterday and today,

all the wannabes

want Mercedes.

Cacophony & Confusion, Entertainment Delusions? … Ja, Bitte! Wir sind das Volk!

Something to say?

Of course!

But who’s listening, reading, caring or,

most importantly,

thinking

about the words.

…

Your heart and soul poured out

as you to try to explain,

only to be drowned out

by TV noise.

Humanity’s Bent (aka: Mercedes-Benz, To This You Aspire?)

As the Sun rises and sets,

the Moon shines,

inspiring (when clouds consent).

Birds sing

and people do “their thing”.

Every day, increasing,

I lament

humanity’s bent.

Democracy & Megalomania, Seduction & Delusion (aka Girls Gone Wild… Waving Flags… Intriguing Fingering)

The megalomaniac is a democrat,

he/she/it wants to fuck as many lives

as will choose to be seduced.

Wasted!

It’s the selfish,

self-centered,

greedy, manipulative,

exploitative,

self-aggrandizing,

driven to humiliate,

(apparently instinctive),

nature of humanity

and society

that makes me believe

there is no hope.

…

I want and need

to escape!

Illness Of Modernity

Exploited,

experimented and demented,

every day another piece of me dies

as they advertise,

yet more shit…

the power of diversion,

perversion and aversion,

selling me yet more bondage.

Drained of life and hope,

marginalized,

peripheralized,

knowing I’ll never have what

they tell me I need,

I want to die to this life.

Illness of modernity.
