The Good Old Us of A

THE GOOD OLD U.S. OF A
THEY SAY CAN YOU SEE BY THE DAWN'S EARLY LIGHT?
OF COURSE I CAN, I HAVE TO I'M UP GETTING READY FOR WORK. 
I GOT BILLS TO PAY SO I CAN HAVE A PLACE TO STAY 
THEY SING ABOUT THE ROCKETS RED GLARE AND THE BOMBS BURSTING IN AIR. SWEATHEART I KNOW YOU MUST MEAN THE FIRE ROARING FROM A BUILDING,  IF BOMBS ARE FLYING I'M A HIT THE DECK. 
I NEED TO LIVE! DADDY DON'T TAKE CARE OF ME LIKE YOU BOURGEOISIE'S. 
THEY TELL US IT'S THE HOME OF THE BRAVE AND THE LAND OF THE FREE 
WELL I AM BRAVE, BUT I AIN'T FREE, WE AIN'T FREE 
WE ARE AS FREE AS THAT TREE RIGHT OUTSIDE MY DOOR 
THE GOVERNMENT OWN'S IT, IT'S GANGSTER AND HARD-CORE. 
THIS BE OUR MOTTO"IN GOD WE TRUST". D.T.A BABY. 
BABY MY TRUST IN GOD AIN'T GONNA STOP A WAR, AIN'T GONNA BUY ME A STORE. 
THAT'S RIGHT MY TRUST IN GOD GOT ME CLEANING FLOORS FOR YOU DIRTY WHORES. 
PRAISE THE POWER THAT HATH ME AND PRESERVE US A NATION! 
PLEASE OKAY ALL THEY DID WAS PRESERVE THE GOVERNMENTS INFATUATION WITH MONEY. I'M SORRY THAT NONSENCE DON'T FLY BY ME HONEY. 
"TIS THE GOOD OLD U.S. OF A.


Diogenes

"Blushing is the color of virtue."



You're done.
You melt like a sigh
 on the lips of angels.
You've drained
  the paleness of injustice,
your own hands tangled up,
aw, the square stare of the truth,
 impassable duel of the pupils.

Your hands are filled with the face of our tragedy,
witherering among the sidereal flowers,
 a cursed sunset,
a lamp lit in the wee hours,
no truce is better than advancing to the edge of yourself,
  throwing yourself into the fire of the stars,
 crossing the hard core time;
with flimsy memories 
 descending into a blessed hell.

You want to die with the lamp lit,
not talk about anything that gives you away
when you smoke compulsively,
 tramontane and bold,
you know how pliable is the scroll of fear.

You are bad, Diogenes,
with your airs of moldy poet,
twitching the neurons of those who feel
that Truth is even more pliable,
Come here, my ox, my friend.

My Family

                  Peeping into past
               my reminiscence as child
                  displays dark shadow.

               Mom’s loud negligence
                 biased treat on my daily need
                      pricked my self- esteem.

                  But I was the pearl 
                      of my Dad’s hard core heart.
                     Grandma bestowed care.  

                    A girl needs her Mom.
                  Painful childhood wept and wept
                      being deep deprived.

                    A lone fighter fought
                        to get herself established
                                on satisfaction.

                     Got fair scope to build 
                        my own family yielding
                              all treasures of heart.

                     Two brave brilliant 
                            daughters were blessed by God.
                              I showed light to them.

                      They reached their goals
                           now having own families.
                                 I travel alone.

Premium Member Like a Timex

Through lickings, like a Timex, my husband’s hard-core.
Evermore, heart ticking, he goes on.
They don’t make his model any more.

Not cut out for college, he gathered lore
in his craft; he learned it all, hands-on.
Through lickings, like a Timex, my husband’s hard core.

Into night he’d often work, his body sore,
developing both calluses and brawn.
They don’t make his model any more.

Once a fall from two floors up he bore!
Days later he was at his work by dawn.
Through lickings, like a Timex,my husband's hard-core.

Robbed and scammed; so much to abhor!
This self-made man felt like a woebegone.
They don’t make his model any more.

New trials that he never knew before
now face him, but he’s still a hanger-on.
Through lickings, like a Timex, my husband’s hard core.
They don’t make his model any more.

Premium Member Yellow Fart

it was not so much that his liver had succumbed to cirrhosis

the jaundice had resulted from hard core assault on his brain

no rose-tinted spectacles would ever restore his faulty vision

myopia in itself was not a problem but refusing its correction is

in his mind however darkness was reserved for the plague

hallucination was if one questioned superiority of White folks


then his worst nightmare became true at a gay bashing party

just when they started to burn an effigy of sexual aberration

ready to slaughter a ****** on the altar of self-righteous pride

already mocking and chanting for God’s straight creation

someone spiked his drink with LSD and his vision went wild


a prism of spectral rainbows danced and he dropped his guard

and his pants as a matter of fact and he fondled his mate’s groin

delirious with such panoply of diverse hues of flamboyance 

gaudy radiance sent shivers of animation down to his phallus

which would not stand up to the pressure of diverse vibrance


he stuffed little blue pills down his throat but all he accomplished

was a giant headache and a pain in the backside when vibrations

on batteries stretched his soul’s sphincters in uninhibited pleasure

hetero phobia and racial oppression vanished once and for all as

he embodied the vicious hypocritical flatulence he had always been 


disgraced and confined to an orange jump suit the iris of fantasy

came to confirm that he had never been the brightest crayon in the 

box but exposed in unwilling iridescence he whined like a sheep

at the slaughter to the unforgiving applause of jaundiced demise

Is Hard To Dream This Days

is hard to dream this days
woke up this morning
thank God am alive 
and healthy again
what a privilege
I wish it don't end so soon 
cos the days are hot 
out there 
thank God am still moving 
I already had my dreams 
still the realities look scary 
I wonder if is clear 
why dreaming at the first instance
so instead of a long awaiting dreams
I rather fall in trance 
like this morning 

is hard to dream this days 
this morning is blessed
like every morning
despite some morning 
start bitter 
when the mind weak 
with confusion
wondering how hot 
it will look like again 
out there 
cos the pressure of 
needs are never 
away from my doors
it keep knocking
and the my mind keep 
keeping on the light of life 
I bear to my destiny 
is a good morning
thank God am alive
another natural privilege
hope my realities 
bleed my worth 
cos I dream no more 

is hard to dream this days 
good morning to the world 
am awake again 
I hope I am free 
to in hail this morning
airs of life 
cos the world keep getting 
colder and colder 
every son set 
no wonder I dream 
no more 
cos what else is more 
admirable in life 
than the peace of the mind
it is a free blessing to humanity
yet it is a hard core fortune
to achieve nowadays
no wonder the world
keep getting colder and colder
despite it natural blessing
its hard to hide with out pains
it difficult to cope with out 
struggles
its never possible to exist
with out blames
no matter how good is the morning

A Betrayal of Friendship

What a recent shame it's been
Tears are falling once again
Eyes are red and really swollen
After all my faith was stolen
Someone I completely trusted
With a friendship has now busted
All my dreams that we could be
Like sisters in a family
Sharing good times and the bad
Thinking it is what we had
But your act of cruelty
Smashed apart the sisterly
Union I fought so hard for
Your actions are so hard core
It sucker punched me in the gut
Opening my eyes that were shut
When did you become unloyal
To the point you had to soil
All the years I tried my best
To be someone you can invest
All your happy and sad days
But you threw that LL away
Stealing a guy you knew
I worked up the courage to
Finally ask out on a date
But you swooped in now its to late
I hope you burn in a hell fire
You're a crappy friend and liar

Premium Member Downtime

It’s nice to have some holiday downtime and not be all go-go-go. I’ve even gotten in some Animal Crossing play. After 40 minutes of picking up weeds, Bianca, one of my villagers, told me she’d heard I was dead.

Later, we’re in Lisa’s living room taking turns playing songs from Spotify.
Lisa just played “Woo”, by Rihanna. When the song ends, fading out, Leeza deadpan said, “That song is pure evil.”
“You guys, I forgot to mention it but that is my energy song, it makes me feel so HOT.” Lisa adds with a chuckle.
“It has an evil vibe,” I admit. “An evil vibe,” Leeza confirms.
“Don’t be judging,” Lisa reminds us.
“Your next,” Lisa said, nodding to Leeza, “What’ve you got for us,” she speculates, “some mental health rock?”

Leeza’s had this girl-punk-rock group called “Vancougar” playing on a loop in her room. At first, I wasn’t enthusiastic but now I think they slay. Her mom’s even gotten on board, dancing “the twist” to “Philadelphia” when it rolls around. Leeza has great taste in music although she leans a bit EMO (emotionally hard core) for me. She makes me feel old by introducing us to all these new bands like “Youngest and only,” “Calling all Captains” and “Beatrice Dear.”

“I’ve got one song to play,” Leeza says, “Paparazzi, by Lady Gaga.”
“I’ve been listening to that song all WEEK!” I gasp, “I love that song, it may be her best - that’s so random,” I finish saying as the song starts.
As Paparazzi ends Lisa says, “That song has major Gwen Stefani vibes.”
“It DOES,” I agree, “It could be “Cool” or “Sweet Escape.”
“Yeah, for sure,” Leeza agreed, “shoutout to No Doubt.”

Leeza says, “I have a conversation topic: What’s something we all acknowledge is cheugy but we still do anyway?” 
“Being blonde,” I say, which gets stitches of laughter because it’s true and Lisa and I are.
“That’s true, that’s fair,” redheaded Leeza laughs. “Anyone blonde is dead to me,” which gets her a pillow in the face.
“Ok, I’m going to come for a lot of people,” Lisa says, “but yogurt, yogurt is cheugy.”
Leeza gasps, “You think yogurt.. It’s not cheugy!” she practically yells, “It gives MOM.”
.
.
slang..
cheugy = something off-trend, or behind in an awkward way - millennial, but not fully vintage.
gives mom = a comfort activity

P E C Frontline

Growing up on a small council estate
         pretty close knit and plenty of mates
            we had our own little squad
              the park end crew, were like a pod
            
                 We went through a stage of oppertunist thieves
                    but what was to follow nobody believes
                      just of what was about to come in store
                         organised violence football hard core

                             The length and bredth of England,our firm travelled
                               coming up against the best and coming unravelled
                                 an incident occurred that would change my life
                                   the judge said to me, you did use a knife.

                                         12 lads went to jail for 39 years
                                            some hard faced and some with tears
                                               16 years old,5 years on my head
                                                 going to jail to lay on my bed.....
