Hidden forces compatibly energize different folks,
Fortifying for...

Shit Over Feature
It’s called a Blitz
It’s more like shit
Shit on the feel of it
Shit on those gone before
Before when readers were respected
Before some tortured verse unnecessarily
Unnecessarily complicated composition
Unnecessarily nurtures the arbitrary
Arbitrary in its construction
Arbitrary in direction
Direction Now...

Saturday Night Enterprise
Saturday here on the holodeck
Jiminy Cricket dances around
to keep baser instincts in check
theoretical ethical dilemmas abound.

The holodeck is like dream time
capable of desires and fantasies
events both horrifying and sublime
played out, life across the galaxies.

A Verse of Obscure Meaning
The elephant in the room

The elephant in the room reclined, comfortably, on the couch;
Trunk curled and tail curled, an engaging feather boa
Draped gracefully about the shoulders, and a
Slightly crushed tutu contrast to the Holmesian 
Meerschaum...

Revolution Will
The revolution will come bit-by-bit
freedoms for securities, a stock split

The revolution will not be streamed

The revolution will occur in silent din
future different from what has been

The revolution will certainly be...

Guilt
Guilt...!

Guilt rides,
on the chariot of truth
and how long can it go forth?
It  obscures the facts 
and obliterates the figures and
peps-up and cooks it's own broth!

It feels so heavy, 
wears out the only one who is privy

Yet the rocks nourish the wind
Who feed so slowly—...

OBVERSE
This is undeniable
Antithesis of my heart.
You are detrimental, 
undenounced with the consequential
and spoiled within the frozen.
A warfare of dichotomy from the start.

All plans foiled,
 all paths pre-chosen.
Ovulate in precession with the moon
This taste left begs...
