Long Egotistically Poems

He begins
commenting on Chuang-tse
who was commenting on Laotse's
"Exalt not the wise
So that the people shall not scheme [win v lose]
and contend [in partisan debate];"

Wait, am I in the wrong place
or the wrong day
and or time?

I'm still waiting for my first automated rifling phone call,
Scripted to begin:

Hello Gerald Oliver Dillenbeck!
What would you like to health invest in this wealthy day?

So I could answer with
Compassion, even for telemarketers
of narcissistic death technologies.

I'm...

As I awake this morning
I remember a Barney song 
for my more oppositionally misaligned daughter.

I love you
and you love me
even if I couldn't realign my four B's,
Brain,
and Branches,
and Belly,
and Butt, 
these four aligned
good government.

If you...

Sherri Mitchell invites us all
to gather more cooperatively in our search to avoid
once again in this Fifth Extinction MultiGeneration,
the entitled
privileged
win/lose colonizing
leftbrain dominant potential patriarchal terrorist
lurking within
our climate darkening ego identity.

How do I sabotage my more...

If I were not a GAY white male
living in the USA,
I wonder if I would have grown my LeftBrain up
to so easily hear 
Donald John as Head Pharisee
for privileged religiously-held Nationalism--
a totalitarian fake-idol
substituting fake-patriotic raptures

If I were a guy
I’d actually enjoy wearing a suit and tie,
I wouldn’t feel uneasy about walking down a late night city street
And high heels would become obsolete,
I’d sleep an extra hour every day, never...

The last few agonizing moments aboard the ill-fated Titanic,
Were no doubt filled with horror and unabated panic.
She slipped 'neath the waves to settle on the floor of the sea,
To create a watery grave for 1500...

Seems as if I lost myself
Forgot myself 
Left me behind
Neglected I.
Selected an alternate being 
Infringed upon my own personality 
I’ve been selfishly abandoned
Vacated
Became a derelict
And now I’m desperate 
In need of a meeting 
Featuring the...

Upright and Not Inscrutable
By Franklin Price
9/20/2015

Upright and not inscrutable
Always Constitutional
Never running for an office just for me
Looking out for my constituents
In your best interests are my intents
However else would you think that I could be

Not that anyone asked,
but it does seem to me

And, while we're responding to self-glorifying tweets,
perhaps we might...

is less about freedom from suppression
when more about freedom toward mutual dialogue,
cooperatively held impression
to co-invest in active democratic hope.

Perhaps this is why

So much stupidity
And attempts at mimicry

Do I need to describe it more vividly
With better imagery?

I guess I've been feeling differently
Than the rest of the industry

Don't ever question my authenticity
And dignity
In any vicinity

Got to get it...

Picture Perfect 




Positioning round, global meltdown
Searching for that something not meant to be found

Conditioned we craze, our over populated phase
Why ask questions if the real issue you're scared to raise

Reflexive intuition on which status or...

the world is an image alignment
in the mind of the many reflectives
called causes that are seen mirrored
as changes passing with little lasting

All so egotistically 
         Distorting all versions of reality
Chemically compatible with separate identities
         All else falls away except gravity
