"The Depths"

From the depths
silence.

Where 
are the voices
of other 
women?

In that other place,
the monsters violate, 
they take and take
bloody all, what they want

the dreams of women
are torched, murdered, 
next to them, 
the sweet dreams of lives...

Finding the plot

Of lost innocence
engrained in untold memories

The silenced absence 
in past present unspoken
stories well hidden

artillery burning houses

My antecedent shelter of
generational tapestry
knotted...

Heretofore stuffing said scandalous fête
worst day of year turkeys do hate
though vegan lifestyle
sweeping culinary tables of late
though me and the missus

like shadows they follow us
they tell their stories 
on pages 
that may or may not 
be seen, or read,
we a'muse them -

"we", of course, are truly inconsequential
in the greater scheme of things;

they are like ghosts

Absolute truth 

Question?
What is the absolute truth ?
Depends on who you are asking
What they believe in
And what there motives are
Some say the Bible is the absolute truth
Beyond question or reproach

People who tell it like it is
Are usually wrongfully targeted
People who tell the truth with ease

Nor burning intelligence’s 
penalty
Nor repression sold as 
suppression
Nor dissemination of distortion

It’s combat? 
Humanity’s mission
Submission’s antithesis...
