I was walking down to the taco joint
wearing my new conical Chinese hat,
I looked how it looked, it gave me some flair,
but some beta-hipster took issue with that.

He stalked up and said,”It’s people like you
who are holding us back as a nation!
Do you not realize...

Cultural ownership,
disproportionately lavished upon kings,
the occasional ecopolitical queen,
white male Republican Senators,
elite corporate CEOs
overdriving inside monocultural management
feeding consumer acquisitive appetites

Leads to cultural entitlement

Elitely leads to cultural appropriation,
where I win appropriate proportions
at your loser disproportionate misfortune,

And,
sometimes to multicultural creolization,
where everyone wins Golden Rules
co-arisingly together....

Karaoke life-pantomime emo
intentions bill me I am a
humofake------my ill 
allegiance to a low life
inconsequentially---defined
but altogether mesmerised to
count for the inner masses
intelli-gentzia unsurpassed
unpronounced, unguilded
and un-aforementioned assguides
drowned in altered dire straights
poised poisoned in a cerebral palsy intensity
my resident in dubious density of
thrill thoughts recounted where I am...

When Would It Be Most Appropriate To Say, I Love You?

“When would it be most appropriate to say I love you?
	Today, tomorrow,—sunrise, sunset;
		Would it make a difference?
			I love you all the time.”

In moments, circumstances change lives
But I will always be there for you;
	(I am more...

A nation divided, its fabric ripped to shreds
Like a clipper ship’s sails in a hurricane
Its rudder wrenched from its stern
Leaving its course to the mercy of its abuser
The fate of its crew dependent on its strength
And its ability to weather the storm 
To once again...

"Endlessly fascinating..."
Truths are in that phrase
As are lies or misunderstandings
Perhaps myopically unintentionally misleading
I'm endlessly fascinated by something right now
The whirring, incessant ~ almost
Until I tire or simply forget
Distraction quite impactful
For instance some microwave porridge (chocolate flavour) has just pulled me from my thoughts
How could porridge...

the “appropriate” distance

one can never be far enough from heartbreak
**** those who say that walking back into the fire shows how much stronger you have grown---
just who are you trying to prove it to?
if walking back in the same vicinity as the fire,
near anyone who...

Whining, is age appropriate,
With wrinkles - both newborns and aged.
Boo-hoos - in cradle; before grave.
The old straitened; babes’ swaddled.

With wrinkles, both newborns and aged,
They are bathed, despoiled, and diapered.
The old straitened; babes’ swaddled.
Rock and roll lullabies, falling.

They are bathed, despoiled, and diapered.
Boo-hoos - in cradle,...
