Long Classism Poems

Dear Neighbors,
community co-investors,
sharing an outdoor green riverside Commons
and an indoor
historical CommonSpace

Both, and all, sacred
to panentheistic me
and probably more mundanely secular
to monoculturing LeftBrain dominant
verbally rationalistic
you

And yet, co-relational lives of thought
and feeling always matter
to cooperative
effective communication resilience

There was a noble sadness hiding in her eyes.
She wears a smile, though elements of insecurities
Trembled in its corners...
Dignity and suffering, combating
for the control of her expression.
Hiding the battle scars of her life; 
Intending to...

The American Presidential Election on 8th November 2016
Will determine the nation’s future policies and government
Its candidates will qualify by caucuses and primaries successes
And all most definitely with seriousness will give addresses

Hillary Clinton is a democrat...

Girl, Who lied to you?
Who told you that being you just won't do?
Who told you that your flabby thighs and your big brown eyes were uncouth?
Who told you that you weren't pretty enough and that...

I've said the same things in my head about 24 times in the last minute but every time it meant something different.
These words might not make sense
BUT I'm still typing to fill some void I...

Can you imagine a world where folk 
would have genuine respect and 
acceptance for one another?

I believe those two characteristics 
would bring unity all over the land.

I want to live on a planet where love...

We are lost cities finding reasons 
to join our broken aspirations together,
a lost elegies uprooting tubers of yam planted by our forebearers,
dreams seeking for home and abode to abide by in the nexus of classism.
We've...

For the nation who gave us our life,

And solely beclam their souls 
Who bled freedom for us to live and peacfully...

mr. buffet can’t believe that
so much “inequality exists
without people really getting upset” &
as he & some of his richest friends in the world
start to give up some of their moola 
to cause that they see...

To the American people let me begin by saying
That this is not a game we're playing
This is not a contest of team vs. team
And our reality is more than a meme
See, we have this notion...

Step off the conveyer belt that
transport you to your daily limits.
Your constant gaze on that
controlling time clock, tick-tock, tick-tock!
It’s time for social distancing, time to go in,
consort with the self, the inner soul!
Stop all of...

 I want to run away
Run away from the problems I face
It's easier than to confront them headstrong
Don't compare me to another
Not even yourself
This is the world we live in
A society that creates status based...

“Are we under them or not?” they debated, 
“Do we owe them explanation?”, they demurred, 
Sure of their validation of this baby, they stated, 
To Herod that one day it’d be the king conferred.

Many U.S. citizens
deny that democratic civility and classism can,
and often do,
co-exist.

These tend to be
those who also deny
the multigenerational inheritance of enslaving racism
in defense of egalitarian beliefs
about dignity and indignities of human life,
where some have access...

there's a well inside of me
that longs for more empathy.

it starts with the creatures
man mistreats.  this negative action is ceased
with the growth of the heart --
something man must fine tune like
a work of art.

Born without spot, all equal in God’s eye
Yet, on winds aloft, Envy’s cursed seed.
Hatred warms the bed where Evil will lie.

The fertile soil beguiles, rooting on the sly.
Black veils of mistrust tinting each good deed!
Born...

walking to work 
in a *****small town
with the cars whizzing by &
the peering drivers 
with 
bulging beady eyes
(fat behind the wheel,
never exercising, with
heart attacks & heart disease
just round the bend),
with curiosity that 
killed the
****ing cat,

Society! A sad state of affairs.
Corporate, owned. The stores pushing their wares.
Politics, ambiguous. No truth found.
Majority vote. Yet, the loser, crowned.
Divided we stand. The land is not free.
Upward you rise if you have the money.
