Your wings have now been clipped Your mouth now tightly closed It’s time to fade to black Your fraud’s now been exposed Your bully pulpit’s done Deplatformed front to back Your last incitement crashed As your scene fades to black Failed and fallen clown king A legacy disgraced Followers abandoned Leadership now replaced You playedContinue reading “Bye Bye Tweety Turd”

2020 was a shitty year On this, I think we can each agree Sadly this is where consensus ends Due largely to our dichotomy Skewed sharply by a vast division The red, the blue and sometimes the green Manifest tribal polarity Filling all the spaces in between Bleakly entrenched in our opinions Willing to loseContinue reading “Burn the Candle at Each End”

There once was a hero Or so the stories go That stood watch every night In freshly gathered snow Deep in my memories I can picture the place With the crab apple tree Cloaked in winter’s embrace Out there on the front yard ‘Neath blue incandescence Stood the mighty Glowman In bright luminescence I quiteContinue reading “The Legend of Glowman”

From the order at the origin To utter chaos within a blink The ruthless march of time has begun Before there were even minds to think From the singularity burst A quantum of the infinite Hurtling helplessly through spacetime Ambiguously different Along the arrow of time, it flies Unidirectional by design Defying elegant symmetry SacrificingContinue reading “Agents of Entropy”

Sprung from tombs of anachronism Fertilized in forefather’s pride The stench of spoiled patriotism Permeates from deep down inside Spangled head to toe in bloodstain The colors of idolized years Cloaked in the shroud of their disdain Are Faketriot’s impotent fears The waving flag of hypocrisy Sewn from fabric of our common shame Bears theContinue reading “Faketriot”

Hardwired to our source code Subconsciously prepared Transmitted by antenna To the mind yet unimpaired Anxious wires vibrating Growing accordant buzz Alternating progressions To transcend the cosmic fuzz Keys surge in synthesis Sounds in varied degrees Ambient landscapes of mood Born of nuanced subtleties Vibrating cables pulse Crunchy metallic thrum Synchronizes our heartbeats With everyContinue reading “Anachronome”

In the dawning days of dysphoria Cliques of creatures could casually crawl Through ramshackle burned-out suburbia To the heart of a late century mall There a disembodied discomfort crept Across cavernous cliches of heartache Many lost souls inconsolably wept For fidelity they’re forced to forsake The withering disapproval destroys What the earnest dreamer dares toContinue reading “Superbia”

From the heart of the fallen oak The ancient soul has been released It echos of words not yet spoke Of many ghosts not yet deceased Compact concentric rings betray The birthmarks of forgotten fate Each contour able to convey Possibility to create Strong yet minimal at its core Cut from the living breathing stockContinue reading “The Uncarved Block”
