I, Lazarus
by Michael R. Burch

I, Lazarus, without a heart,
devoid of blood and spiritless,
lay in the darkness, meritless:

But then I thought I heard?a Voice,
a Voice that called me from...

I sing my songs with rageful joy in mind,
Forgetting the past struggles, aches and sorrows
That intertwine with my mind’s eye, leaving all of me behind
Forgiving others of their wrongs for better tomorrows

You know who comforts...

I feel out of place…out of place
I dream of floating in space…
Away from the darkness below

We couldn’t see cuz we were out of our mind
We shouldn’t be left behind...

What my kids too often fail to notice,
and what I am guilty of weighing too lightly, 
to avoid timely discernment,
are contrasts in density of opportunity

I'm in bondage, is this a dream
I'm governed by extremes
Let's leave this land of tyranny

Escape on to a new land of liberty
"people who survive war and escape tyranny"

Despotism, absolute power, autocracy,
Dictatorship,...

On this UBI's Day, May 1st, to observe the greatest socioeconomic concept ever conceived.

UBI, what if I'm missing the necessary.
Solve it, opportunity for statues.

I run from memories, stained in enough felony
After a failed choreography to budge up new colony
To annul life, yet live the same life pieces harmony

Clever queen, I maneuvered my way through all of the subtle and most obvious plays 
Masterfully 
Sensual aestheticism, sexual teetotalism, romanticism, sadism, masochism, hedonism 
Calculating many moves in advance, I played the game mercilessly 
Surrounding...

I belong to metallic soiled Earth,
solar-fired water's atmosphere;

investing primal qualities of time
predicting secondary...

And her step dad was a raging alcoholic
This tiny space was...

Here is a fraction of half the 
Examples which I call decoding.
Yeah decoding the Inglish language.
Hey now hear in this damnation

And deplorable.

All right  alright. And just how did

Bone Lady. 

Pippa Gray

If you have come for romance, please leave.
Follow the fireflies and they will lead you 
back through the woods, to your manmade path.
There is no sweetness or solace here.

Here’s a twain of siblings so delicate—
The tenor and its weary vehicle,
Similar are, nor yet so disparate

from birth are marked by melancholy,
The silent shades of sorrow,

Being brought so low,
