Our Opportunist Politician

Truly every politician is shady
       clearly in the light always seeks dark fully
      makes lie and enticement a truth abusive
      this is his pure reality, objective
      He is actually false and intrusive,,,!... !

False Masters

False masters
                   only instruct A, not B
                   only the Y, not the X...
                   Illuminate nothing...

The Falsity

I felt the sugar on your lip,
Not the venom in your heart,
At last struck me like a dart
My heart you managed to rip.

I’m numb, a little meek,
Not passive as you feel.
I just want to heal,
Payback I do not seek.

Your sedition came out of the blue,
Willy veiled in my dearest faith,
Forced me see my own wraith,
I just wish I knew; you were never true.

I tried to cushion the blow,
Blamed me for your perfidy.
That was my tragedy,
I hope my pain you will never know.


Poor Words

Oh scarce weird world  of us !
                    With many words
                    for so many
                     lies ...
                     many books
                     are written
                      pure deception ...!
                      Many speeches.,
                      that don't say
                      that don't convey
                         to anything... !
                      And I here with
                      few words
                       to explain,
                       without convincing me ...!

Insults and Embers

Don't throw me insults
    in the form of embers ...
    I might as well deviate
     and not be hit ...
    But your poor hands,
    they could be burned ...!

False Friendship

Just lives to upset you
               thinking he is all right
               does not offer foot or hand
               never comes to aid you ...
               Wish you on way to transform
               don't accept your success
               having your monopoly
               hope for your failure ...
               Don't accept your friends
               speak ill of your character
               says that everybody is enemy
               charges further for your friendship ...
               False friend is all that
               does not show pleasure or snack
               it's just  meat of neck,
               dominates your soul 
               and gnaws your bones ...!


False Witness

It’s easy to judge another by color, size, speech
to file him away safely out of reach.
It’s easy to give thanks you’re not like him
whose chances for success you think are slim.
Some reach such a conclusion absent facts, 
hence how they treat others is a falsity of acts.
We know nothing of another by looks alone,
for judgments so made we will have to atone.

Falsity

is a virus that attacks the mind

disguising itself as truth for to

deceive judgment

in order

to create opinions that lead to 

confusion and error

for 

the sole purpose: The  

establishment of evil!

Falsity

Fittingly hallowed gods must intrinsic majesty hold.
Even before deities invoked weigh the caller's case,
The deity's potent title should alone spell the balm,
And tint with nourishing grace the supplicant's face. 

Woe justly betides gods modelled by mortal skill,
Conjured to define the worshiper's creative spans.  
True deity outdoes their adherent's most avid drill,
And defeats most faithful admirers' keenest scans. 

If while engaged they varied ethereal trends display,
But when left alone they silent and unbothered stay;
You already got there a freaking raw deal indeed:
You're the mighty guy your own-made gods need! 

The worshiped must by heart the worshiper know,
And both will ever commune as if by infallible law.
It’s the supreme being mightily seeking the follower,
Who grasps it well and submits to the bigger power. 

It’s a fake god if it bends to suit whimsical desire, 
Or at once plays into your infinite imaginative fire!

The Falsity of Time

A prisoner of the truth
  sole inmate of denial

Serving time falsely promised
  —paroled in cold exile

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2014)

Makeups Falsity

makeups falsity....
false facade 
false persona
makeups falsity....
mask warn to impress
mask painted upon the facial canvas
makeups falsity....
used to cover up imperfections 
used to cover up impurities 
makeups falsity....
used to falsely attract 
used to falsely mask insecurities 
makeups falsity....
society's subliminal messages 
that "they' try and shove down 
little girls throats 
makeups falsity....
society's brainwashing 
of youth to conform to
what your supposed to look 
like 
makeups falsity....

Falsity Plays Hide-And-Seek

Time, we wasted in vain
With illusions of love and shame.
Feeling, they went away
Without saying day after day.

Time, we lived so fast
With the image of feelings' last.
Emotions, they are insane,
Which lose their own right way.

Love, we didn't find
Even in bright daily light.
Love, we so regret,
That sinserity...we just forget.

Falsity plays hide-and-seek
With our mind and they are false,
We allowed life to freak and freak,
Because all hearts are tighty close.

Holiday Falsity

holiday falsity
comes just like the
gathering together
during a tragedy,
when everyone 
“forgets” their
differences & bands
in order to defeat
the common 
catastrophe of the
moment---
that which is making
its best attempt to
extinguish us all.

that warm comfort 
whose warmth is 
churned because of
“this time of year”
when americans
round up by the millions
to spend spend spend
the money that they
complain about not
having for the rest of
the year &
the manufactured smiles
dealt by those who feel
obligated to not be
“humbugs,” “scrooges,”
or simply the kind of 
person who has the
bitter foresight to know
that around January
10th, everyone will be
back to backstabbing 
again.
