This LeftMind dominant
viral virtue 
of practicing RightBody patience 

Is a coverup 
for feeling deep impatience.  

Feeling impatient is not as hopeful 
as exploring active curiosity. 

Curiosity 
about why someone, 
including my own anthro-privileged self, 
would default to live win/lose 
competitively 

When our healthiest, 
and safest 
economically enlightened 
and politically empowering experiences 
have always grown choices to live 
liberally
radically
integrally
EarthTribally
sacredly
neurosystemically
ecologically
more fully win/win, 
cooperatively co-invested.

Passionate curiosity might kill the occasional cat; 
but probably not more deadly 
than dispassionate lack of curiosity.  

Besides, 
passionate curiosity can also be more fun
than boring impatience

More joyful, 
than sad
mad
bad 

More curiously glad
even appropriately win/win consenting adult/adult lusty

More sad/glad soulful 
preferring mindful disciplines 
like healthy therapeutic dances 
and well-sung 
resiliently brilliant love songs.

I WAS ROME - MING THROUGH TIME.

WHEN I PASSED THROUGH A DOOR.

I WAS PART OF THE CLOUD ,

OBSERVING A WAR.

FREEDOM RIGHTS AND PRIVACY

WERE HANGING BY A THREAD.

LEGAL PROPAGANDA

BEING DRILLED INTO FOLKS HEADS.

PRIVACY IS A FRAGILE WORD.

ESPECIALLY WHEN I KNOW ,

EVERYTHING YOU EVER SAID ,

THOUGHT , HEARD OR TOLD.

GOTTA LOVE WHEN PEOPLE SAY,

THERE IS NOTHING I NEED TO HIDE.

THAT'S UNTILL I EXPOSE THE TRUTH 

YOU SIMPLY CAN NOT DENY.

INVASION OF YOUR PRIVACY,

GOES BEYOND THE SCOPE.

MANIPULATION OF YOUR THOUGHTS

HAS THE SAME EFFECT AS DOPE.

IF YOUR SUGGESTION CREATES  IDEALS

THAT BENEFIT THE CORPORATION,

YOUR SURELY GOING TO GO ALONG

WITH NO NEED FOR EXPLANATION.

INVASION OF YOUR PRIVACY,

INCLUDES THE FOODS YOU EAT.

IF BIG AGRA SAYS IT'S GOOD FOR YOU

TO JUSTIFY , YOU REPEAT.

OWNING WHAT YOU NEED TO GROW.

CORPORATIONS PATENT , AND SELL TO YOU.

GOVERNMENT , BLINDLY , GOES ALONG

AND THE POPULOUS , HAS NO CLUE.

KNOWING THINGS THAT FRIGHTEN YOU

LIKE HATRED , WARS AND CRIMES.

GOVERNMENT HAS TO PLAY ALONG

IN THE FORNICATION GAME OF MINDS.

INVASION OF YOUR PRIVACY

INCLUDES SETTING PEOPLE UP.

IF ORGANIZED CRISIS ARE EXPOSED

THE COMPROMISED COVERUP. 

ANOTHER WAY OF INVADING PRIVACY

IS STEALING PEOPLE'S TIME.

THE COMPLICIT AND COMPROMISED

CREATE CHAOS OF YOUR MIND.

MEANING THIS AND SAYING THAT

CLAIMING WRONG IS RIGHT.

WHEN CONSTANTLY BOMBARDED 

DEPLETES YOUR TIME TO FIGHT.

WHEN WEAK. , TIRED AND GIVING IN.

METAPHORICALLY , THE SHIP IS SINKING.

YOU WILL RELINQUISH "ALL" PRIVACY

DRINK WHAT THE REST ARE DRINKING

ONCE DEPENDANT ON CORPORATION

THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN HIDE.

CORPORATIONS NO LONGER NEED YOU,

YOU BECOME RAWHIDE.

IT STARTS OUT WITH YOUR PRIVACY

WITHOUT NOTICE , YOU LOSE YOUR RIGHTS

THAT'LL BE THE END , OF SOVEREIGNTY

AS HUMANITY, GIVES UP ON THE FIGHT.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IMPLANTS

FOR SURE , THERE'S NO WAY OUT.

DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU SAY

THEY'LL OWN YOU , WITHOUT A DOUBT.

YOU'RE PRESENTLY IN A LIFETIME ,

GUIDED BY SOCIOPATHS.

IF YOU DARE , DISAGREE WITH THEM

YOUR DISCARDED JUST LIKE TRASH.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE , DELETES

AND SENSORS , VITAL INFORMATION.

IN OTHER WORDS , THE PSYCHOPATHS 

CONTROL YOUR DESTINATION.

The Insignificance of Man

Blunt deadly weapons of mass destruction
electrify, fracture, and
jeopardize *****Sapiens
species (and entire biosphere)
continuity rent asunder

doomsday declared (nuclear winter
gallows humor spelt
with eternal snow day)
dystopian authors outflanked
nuclear fallout wreaks worst

rocky horror picture
effected upon mankind
global (worldwide)
big screen radioactive
wee willy weber webbing

materiel severely seared
sepsis poisons deoxyribo
nucleic acid future generations
organic fiber cursed
simultaneous single simulcast

broadcast airs live after Royal Wedding
audience participation demanded
bumping ugly fleshless
formed fruitless fatal fumes
anomalies all – blinded

beastial begotten bemoan
brethren brood 
brutal burnt offerings
crackling, snapping,
and popping surreal muck

shapeless liquified populace
sloshing helter skelter
quests slither towards
aimless destination
bone a fied skeleton crews cruise

crying cretins creep cavalierly
crepuscular cratered city
cruel mushroom clouds
cloaked croaking cellophane charred
cancerous clumps career,
clomp continuously
chaos charts choking climate
cold comfort commanded collusion
commander in chief concurred

crumpled coveted constitution credo
crass conceit communicated
cooly came clean concerning
consensual coital cavort
crazy cream craving characterized

condoned combined crunching
crotch crab free **** -
condom free crux
contractual commingling
cashiered coverup

chic chica chick 
cigerette chewing 
clutched cocked club
choked chicken concluded
das capitol business

before he returned
to regularly broadcast program
the sea son finale
last chapter of human race

no winners, nor survivors
bleak contaminated Earth gasping
heaving jackknifed lost in vape
nonpareil planet reduced to vapor!

"Life is way too short to keep 
friends that break your heart. "

                        Quote _by Constance 

                      A fig leaf coverup,
              a friendship that was just a figment;
a charade with an ultimate breakup,
for it was a friendship with no pigment.
                     Evil hidden by a thick cloak,
your camouflage of friendship-   I now revoke; 
your false mask of kindness has been broke.
      Oh, I was blind,
            as your charade into my life twined;
                      you played with my accepting mind.
Now, your ugly true colors are revealed- and I cleanup,
            I pulled back this fig leaf figment;
      and all tendrils of fake friendship-  I choke,
in my life you are now just a distasteful segment.

Premium Member The Mystery of Humpty Dumpty

Ladies and gentleman
Breaking news proving 
The great conspiracy theory
Was far from a hoax -
Early this morning Jack Frost 
Guilt-ridden and repentant
Turned himself in to the authorities
Admitting to his gruesome crime

Jack Frost confessed it was he
who assassinated Sir Humpty Dumpty
By the great wall of China
in broad daylight in front of hundreds
of witnesses who never came forward to testify
The coverup seemed it would never be solved

The assassin has been apprehended
The long-term mystery has been solved
Though the motive remains sketchy at this time
It is rumored that there was a love triangle
With the international superstar Miss Piggy

Premium Member The Drama

I love the colors, so vivid and bright,
Bringing springtime into my sight
Flowers so flamboyant they delight
Amid nature’s promise, all in white
~
I love the green and emerald places
That summertime shares in traces
Of lawn, tree and plants that embraces
Our beautiful sunlit days filled with graces
~
I love the deep reds, orange and gold
Dancing leaves sent for autumn to behold
Sunlight whispering through naked cold
Of limbs that have lost their leaves stronghold
~
I love the glittering glass on snow falling
Traces of winter winds, storms softly calling
A winter wonderland sees the white crawling
Creating a fairytale amid forests left sprawling
~
The seasons all carry their different panoramas
Some of them can even seems like the Bahamas
None of them will ever coverup with pajamas
They love to enrich our lives with their dramas

It Started From the Scratches

It started from the scratches
A small frustration with myself
A mistake that may or may not have been my fault
But that didn’t make a difference
To me, everything was on me
And the world got a little grayer
Slowly more things fell apart
That core of self blame and complete hopelessness
That nothing could ever get better
And the scratches became more
They became blood
The blood I felt I deserved to lose for the way my life had been
Once a day
Twice a day
Still a smile on my face
And then came the mask
The coverup I used to hide the dark numbing fog that consumed me
Three, four times a day
Not a single person around to care as there was more and more marks scarring me
That stinging sensation of water in the shower hitting them
But I don’t clean them because I don’t believe I deserve to heal
The thoughts become numbing
The feeling of pain, the only present emotion
Five, six times a day
Not a single moment goes by when I don’t feel the pain
The temptations
The urge to make myself feel that high of pain again and again
Grey turns to black, stained with red
And that is where it ends for many
But the one fleeting choice to get help
And it gets a little bit brighter
I am a survivor
I wear my scars as a testimony of my pain
My struggles
Never be afraid to get help
Help is always out there
If only just a match to light a candle
Every day
You are loved
You are heard
You are seen
And there can be light again within us all

Premium Member Parade of Antlers

I pump my arms, my legs
through chlorinated fluidity,

hopeful of shaping up,
not shipping out.

up and down, side to side.
sinking weights.

still wet, dash off to my car.
vinyl and towels on the seat.

wouldn’t want to be pulled
over, wearing only a coverup,

but I want
for my shower.

to the top of the hill.
Oh! Deer!

spotted. no two. done.
no three. the fourth

has huge antlers. stops.
I’ve opened my window

so we can stare at each other.
we have our moment.

so four. no, five.
the final oh-deer

pulling up the rear,
not as robust as the last. done.

now, for the shower;
and to show hub’ the pics

of trees wagging tails,
antlers in the midst,

and the watered down animal
snapped in my itty bitty forest.
