There was a time
I watched the news.
It was always better than any bible, it was Truth.
But was it?
It became political, religious, opinionated.
A lie!
Hatred.
Perhaps it was these things, I was too dumb to know.

A couple of days ago there was a small tent city on 9th by the U.S. Post office.
Today, the tent city, gone.
Now there is a memorial there were
someone has died.
It’s like living in Europe in the 1930’s, seeing people rounded up and taken somewhere else.
But for what it’s worth: it’s a symptom of the cancer in America.
Second Chances
Sweet land of liberty,
why is it that there is so little
liberty?
If you’re a citizen, you should have
stockpiles of liberty, with
I’m proud of my country,
but my country isn’t proud of me.
Running everyday,
will help me be fit.
This is my shore.
This is my focus.
I, Non-human
2020 was hard
On my soul,
But I healed up
scarred and
burned.
Ol’ George Floyd
told me that
society
and
the
human race
were worthless.
No,
your value
haven’t increased,
it’s worth less
than halve
of 2020’s
value….
Ring Cities
From the diameter the tents
and tarps stretches
into infinity
Small, large,
they never reach
three stories but
Only two:
Poverty and
Deeper poverty.
The cities surround
Skyscrapers of
Glass,
but no one
lives in them.
In their eyes….
A billion
electronic eyes
lookin’ down upon
billions of people….
No loaves of bread
will never again be stolen,
Water regulated by the
highest dollar.
Low lying lands
drowned
by swellin’
oceans of
plastic.
But who
owns
Who?

The first time I heard the word the ‘woke’ in the work place, I was working a temporary employment assignment. Within two hours f hearing that word I was relieved of that assignment, and the agency I worked for didn’t supply me with a new assignment.
It’s likely they looked me up, and didn’t like what they read, (likely it was the poetry).
For that, I do hope they go out of business, forced into welfare.
Or die.
I’ve noticed there is not much talk about economic inequality, or racism, except in terms of politics.
It is both sad and joyful to see my country burn.

Good morning.
I’ve been crying for the last ten minutes about Queen Elizabeth II, in fear of her death.
No, I’m not British or a member of the Commonwealth.
I was born and raise in the Midwest.
I’m also crying for my country, the US of A, with the feelings that my country died awhile ago on some unknown date later to be determined by a future historian.
I’m crying about my own death, that I myself may be laying somewhere on a battlefield, comatose having failed in my duties as a human being.
Long live the Queen.
Constricting, a poem.
I wonder,
If you see it
gripping your throat,
So you can’t speak,
Your genitals locked away
as property owned
By church and state?
You have no free will or
Liberty…
(“Slap!”)
Wake the f%ck up!
You could always fight.
