The Epic of the Great King

A sight to behold, place of all sins ridden,
Where the great rivers give life and churn,
A thousand diamonds and the trees sing
Along with the wind, ruled by the great King.

Form hooker to harlot,

Whether a paramour in the hands of wealth,
Or a Whore engaging in promiscuous sexual intercourse,

Mgc
Straight rows of soft chairs, larval eyes stare blank
Absorbed by glowing colors on the wall
Their jaws slack, fetid whiff, unwashed and dank
Arrested minds the blue screen does enthrall
Their horticulture, growing docile strains
Indulge the twisted whims...

Somewhere in Africa, is a land blessed with nature:
Valuable gemstones beneath earth’s crust,
A fertile soil nurtured by divine tears from above,
And a blazing smile of radiant sun
But great depression has its hands gripped
On the heart...

Privy ancient knowledge, not clear as light and day.

These tyrants of men with fat belly eyes Infect our dreams.
Soulless sorcerers of threadbare promises.

The Powers We Never See
The powers that be, undefined, ruthless, opaque authority
Shapeless, bodiless, upstanding folk, coercing the majority
Overseeing applications, supplications, ensuring conformity
Specialists in quagmires, minefields, esoteric bureaucracy.
The powers that be, model citizens, high ranking royalty...

“I’ll Take America”
We have our faults and failings;
Our mistakes are quite a few.
Our demigods have disappointed us
And left society askew.

And created as many more
To found a sustainable independence

How Selfish
All for one

Bring about a great fall

We find Liberty has left us as we left our guard,
allowing hate and dishonesty to prosper unbarred.

as we watched a man die while pleading for breath.

As I Walk This Graveyard Somber
As I walk this graveyard somber
Of a country shorn of life
Its gravestone reads, in the distance yonder
Stabbed by debt’s dagger knife
Our Founding Fathers, like demigods
Of a past enlightened age
Founded this nation, with musket rods ...
