Today, i did get one year older...
Not anymore like a little toddler..

Enjoy our parting day
the young girl child,
now full-grown wise Elder,
reminded me,
the brother she had taught to flex male muscle

Premium Member The Hills Are Alive
I grew up gay
and singing in musicals.

Premium Member Professor Yangyinstein's Agenda
The Professor's campaign
although stealthily benign
still co-arose fair hecklers.

How can you reassure me
that our vulnerable children
will not hate me
and you
for stealing from all Earth's tribal presence,

Obsession

Obsession with "O's"

Oh, obsession’s obfuscating oligarchy
Oceans of oblivion
Outrage in ostentatious obsession
Overrun in hurricanes named obdurate and obstinate
Overtures of oxidized compulsive orchestration in
Obbligatos overflowing obituaries -

Sexualizations 5
Say whatever you want to say,
Explaining how you feel inside;
X-rated rants, that make men hide

The battle raged on, the artist uninjured, but soaked in blood,
The dead and dying, cursed by good aim they still feel.

Truth
religion is evil, turning people on people..

Premium Member Light Powers
Lately,
I too often experience
anger begets anger
to also remember
love begets love.

This same appositional binary
appears in retributive criminal justice codes
culturally outweighing
restorative EarthJust climates
of healthcare giving
is also wellness...

struggling to keep the pain of life from outweighing the finality of death....

Hurrying through darkened city streets and alleys. 
Gnawing Hunger outweighing my fear of...

Premium Member Singing With the Earthday Choir
The Assembly fills
with naturally optimistic,
yet kinda predative, ego-voiced ecologists
ready to discontinously 
self-righteously prey 
on hopelessly reactionary rightwing antifeminists,

To pray for successful zealous warrior missions

This realm of steel ice can get unbearable
Everything that I am is locked inside a sub-tolerant shell
Captured away from the visible grounds I had roamed
