Fury For the Masses IV

Weapons of mass destruction 
a time for mass production 
this is the way the world will end 
in silence, this is the way the world
is ending in violence 

chaos, religion, and super media 
stars in a new world order 
of electric cars and topless bars 
fury for the masses 
shatter the hourglass 
as shadows are coming to pass 
move foundations of rot

Lord of the despair hear the fury 
the fury for the Masses 
See them pave the fields 
of gold, green, and dreams
in blacktop for a parking lot.

Poverty-stricken housing 
built on the backs of… 
Our Native Son. 
First Nations run…
The first man of this land. 

Time will watch seasons come
As the money will burn out
running out of time out of sanity
to watch this landscape

escape from light of morals
let reality fade, resting on one laurels
burning the flame, all there is shame
break the rock shattering of the tower 
fury for the masses feeling the power. 

Swing the hammer watch it strike fire, 
fly into a bright brilliant sky, desire 
money for the need, the need of the masses

This is the way the world will end 
maybe in microbes or strip malls?

This is the way the world is ending
in the Power of Greed and entropy... 

Lock and load the weapons of mass chaos 
feel the bright sun explode 
Reflecting in eyes gleaming watch 
the bomb come as a cloud of death rises
watch the mother pray
Fury for the masses. 

Money for the need 
the need for speed 
watch oblivion coming
watch the union of families breaking down 
watch the government crumble in all its technicolor shades 
the hope of the poor a better life dream, decaying 
lock and load let the guns explode
Lockstep to the Government food chains 

a world blinded by a kingdom of fools 
hate rules, a child cries 
Fury for the masses 
this is the way YOUR world will end…

A Prayer for Prosperity, Protection, and Peace

Heavenly Father,
We do not always get it right in this life.
We hide behind brave smiles, while our hearts carry more than words can hold.
There are moments when emotion floods us, when the weight is heavy,
yet even then, You remain.
I have tasted love in its purest form,
and I have seen its fragility.
Life is fleeting, here for a moment, gone like breath on glass
and so I come not for myself alone, but for those You have placed in my care.
There is a refuge where we are made safe,
a dwelling place under the shelter of the Most High.
From the soles of my feet to the tips of my fingers,
I offer every breath, every step, every intention to You.
Precious Lord, hear my prayer.
I ask that my family and my friends prosper, not only in wealth,
but in wisdom, in health, in peace of mind, and in purpose.
Let their paths be steady, their work be fruitful,
and their hearts remain guarded from despair.
May what they build not crumble.
May what they plant take root.
May doors open where none seemed possible,
and may they have the courage to walk through them.
My life is not my own.
To You I belong.
I place myself, and those I love, in Your hands.
Use us well.
Guide us rightly.
Keep us humble, grateful, and strong.
Amen.

Chaos

The bodies have begun to pile
the stench of death grips the air,
no more can innocence find shelter 
as the structure of humanities wall

Crumble into chaos

Nations strike the heart of the East
Boom ! Again and again and again, 
still corpses pile up rotting in streets
as peace finds herself slipping away

Piece by bloody peace 

Strangers weep for sisters and brothers 
a bond not of blood, but unified grief,
we seek to find reason in a maelstrom 
we search soul less eyes for compassion 

finding only empty vessels  

Hardened by a retoric of brainwashed lies 
they've become monsters of suicide
the boogie man under the bed but now 
hes sighting the streets in plain view, 

She or He ? But WHO ? 

Fear has found a home in innocent hearts
children of the night gather trembling, 
Knowing not where the next bullet
or bomb or missile will finally strike home 

Stealing infinities breathe 

I dream of listless easy days 
when nightmares came only to dream,
and a light of the purest innocence 
rests unsullied on the heart humanity 


Hate is breed into humanity 
Its time to replace those genes

We Had It Coming

we had it coming

looking at pictures of an empty Piccadilly Circus
or the Eifel tower in Paris all are empty of life except
for police cars cruising to fine anyone breaking the law.

The emptiness is awesome and frightening to think
How quickly humankind can disappear forever and
When pandemic is over, there might be another one.

Millions of people all over the world rotting in their homes
The disappearance of humans is a near reality.
The only hope is that we lived a tolerable good life.

The future will consist of animals hunting each other.
 Cities will crumble, art and culture of no value.
 We had it coming, I despair.

The Broken Mirror of Time

Looking through the broken mirror of time, 
I visit times and places from the past.
To have loved never should have been a crime; 
Yet, somehow I was always thought of last.

The fragments grow smaller as time moves on, 
And seven years of bad luck holds on tight.
My mind becomes increasingly withdrawn, 
As I'm caught in this never-ending fight.

The mirror dully glistens through the years, 
And the splintered pieces crumble away.
The eyes of those forgotten fill with tears, 
As they remember being led astray.

What harms us most are words left unspoken; 
Which leaves the mirror shattered and broken.

Premium Member I See a Change

Within society turning around eyes 
a political scandal is coming soon
as world powers begin to shift 

Judas where evil's growing stronger 
so much deception covered up
A manifestation of wickedness 
under a chalice of wrath and tyranny 
grace inside peace threatened 

Crusades a tide is marching forward 
Our mission there is no lines drawn in the sand 

Unholy dark entities read the signs 
under a political realm scheming
We are rising from the ashes 
having being burned by fire reborn stronger

As a generation of lost souls 
polluted with garbage lies 
now calls upon the Dove 
commander of Heaven's army 
to manifest through the water's spilled

We all know God
is answering our prayers 

Spirit of his Divine freedom 
your Heart spills under warm angel rays 
Immaculate pure
Salt of salvation anointed spice awakening 
light we see the demons falling beasts 
before our eyes in a secret circle 
societies ring becoming exposed openly

Who reject the Gospel 
I Worship His will to be
Instruct us how to cast out these demons 

As now the good fight tears down the darkness
and its kingdom starts to crumble 
beginning to split this world wide open 
showing us hell's soldiers 

Borders are ordained by God
From suffering we gain wisdom 
isolated I am for years and injustices has shown me 
The true wolves underneath the sheep's clothing 

I call for 
our nations to hold 
on to their cross
 
Our mission has begun 
to call upon our faith's vision 
to see women and children bleeding 
upsets deeply hurts

Things are going to change 
powerful sources are rising 
beasts amongst men 
under their lizard skin 
they are all set to fall 
without a second wind 
plotting against us

Premium Member Down From the Pedestal

You fell from the pedestal
With a strong resounding crash
I rushed to pick the pieces
To throw them out with the trash

I worked to clean the rubble
That your falling left behind
Surprised that I had no tears
For I knew I had been blind

I had simply adored you
I had worshipped at your feet
I had seen you as perfect
To be near you was my treat

I made you a demi god
Invested you with great charm
Couldn’t see the tell-tale cracks
You used devotion to harm

For I thought you were splendid
My life revolved around you
Little did my trusting heart
Believe what they said was true

But then my eyes were opened
Caught a glimpse of what is real
My heart started to crumble
Each piece unable to feel

You fell from the pedestal
I see you with different eyes
That lie was the fatal crack
That brought about your demise

Hotch Potch Soup

I start off being optimistic
With my big saucepan
Only as a last resort will I ever
Eat  soup from a can.
I assemble all the ingredients
From a list I’ve not written down
Caremelise the onions.
Until they’re nice and brown.

Slice up some items
Dice all the rest
Cut the mushroom small
I think that’s best.
I slow cooked a Ham to
Provide a liquid base
Carefully and slowly
I stir this into place.

I  crumble in a cube, flavour
Depending on what I’ve got
Bring it slowly to the boil and
Keep it simmer hot.
I use a hand held blender
To get rid of all the lumps
Get it smooth and even
Get rid of all the clumps.

I taste it in anticipation.
Always a potential waste
It’s hot smooth and digestible
But has such a bland taste.
indeterminate and indefinable
And no matter how I’ve tried
The supposed soup’s variety
Just can’t be identified 

So it’s down to my reviver 
I alway need to use  to fix it
Worcester, Soy, and Balsamic,
And then I liberally mic it.
Sling in some lazy garlic
Just for good measure
Amazingly these Ingredients 
Just add to the palate’s pleasure

It’s a hotchpotch of flavours 
With a lot of spicy heat
Not the sort of thing a gourmet 
Would willingly choose  to eat
But we consume every last drop
We just can’t stand any waste
And hope springs eternal one day
It will conform to conventional taste.

The Phone Call That Destroyed Me

Out of nowhere I received
A call that brought me to my knees
Making me turn weak and shake
The news was more than I could take
It was shocking and unreal
There was nothing I could feel
Going numb and frozen still
I couldn't speak I lost my will
To control any emotions
Each one of my body functions
Just shut down and left me in 
The worst kind of sad condition
That I've never felt before
I finally fell to the floor
As the shock of what I heard
Kept repeating word for word
Over and over it just played
My heart felt like it was slayed
Tortured knowing you wont be
Making memories with me
Since you were taken so fast
How long will this heart pain last
I can't replace what you have meant
Why did that fatal incident
Take away my universe
This tortures getting so much worse
Waking up without you near
There is nothing to compare
What I'm about to go through
Without days of having you
In my life to love and hold
My whole worlds about to fold
And crumble into tiny pieces
Until my life finally ceases
Disappearing into nothing
I can't survive without your loving

The softness we never got

I'm sorry

I know you may have never been told that
But you deserve it
And so if nobody is gonna tell you that
I will
You deserve it

In a world that has told us to be strong
And has held us to impossibly high standards 
I wanted you to know that you matter
And you deserved better
From the world
From your own
I'm here to let every black boy and every black girl know
You can let go
You dont always have to be a superhero
You dont always have to put on a show
Let your exterior crumble
Let those tears flow
All that pain, hurt and hate
Just know that what you feel or felt
Know it was never your fault 
It was the system 
And all of those who never listened
Who failed you
They failed you 
Okay it's not your fault 
I'm sorry they blamed you for being a victim 

You dont have to struggle 
With the weight of your problems
No more
This is my home
And your my guest 
Give me the weight you carry on your chest
Come in and just rest
Sleep, its okay
Even if its all day
Never feel guilty
For how you choose to heal
And always remember 
I love you
