Premium Member Chiseled From Ice

My mind is chiseled from ice
Hair itchy as if infested with lice
Reality isn't so nice
But living in fantasy has a price

We're all prisoners to our own despair
Uniquely personal but unequivocally unfair
Thoughts form the confines of a lair
Eroding values so beware

Almost every line I've written is laced with pain
But the words are smudged and more of a stain
And I struggle with conformity again and again
As I seek to stay within the lines of my own lane

Why can't the gods see all I want is to be free
But my mind is a prison surrounded by endless sea
And with no way to flee
All I can do is hope to find the key

Reality is a knife that cuts deep
Down to the bone the blood will seep
No matter how many tears I'm still a creep
And there is no empathy as I weep

When the ice of my mind finally breaks
Because of the phonies and fakes
I'll be shivering with the shakes
But it's too late to prod the brakes

People will say they care but refuse to show it
Because deep down they don't care if they blow it
Because apathy runs deep and we all know it
The end of my life's rhythm they can only slow it

In a world full of talking heads
I'm just a statistic among the walking dead
And shattered ice litters my self-made bed
But it's the next life I truly dread


Families

Families are divided 
Families are dysfunctional
Families do not have to be
Blood relatives 
Families are people 
Who loves, accept and forgives

People come
And people go
Families always have your back
Families are dedicated 
To keeping you on track
 
Don’t be fooled 
By the fakers
And the phony family members
Because fakers and phonies 
Are like a fire that
Spark crackling embers 

Know your family
Don’t stay apart
Know who loves and accept you
Right from the very start

Matters not
Who crosses your path
You will know
Who your family are 
From the bottom of your heart.

Premium Member They Say We Jews are Afraid

     They say we Jews are afraid
        that no one 'now' will come to our aid

     Murder of Jews in America is multiplying
        more and more hate crimes, innocents dying

     Well, that’s the way it’s always been
        as any Jew with two eyes has seen  

     Six million of us killed by Hitler and his cronies
        without a hand lifted to stop it by Roosevelt and his liberal phonies

     To prevent the last 750,000, from Hungary, from being gassed
        they only needed to target one railway pass

     But FDR and his friends grew up hating those ‘damn Jews’ 
        so, all our urgent pleas they angrily refused…

     Today though, there is Israel, the Jewish state
        reestablished in '48 on the back of global hate

     A state that stands boldly against acts of terror
        where Jewish Israelis glance not in the rearview mirror

     My fellow Jewish Americans, the time is now to emigrate
        let's remake our lives in Israel ~ before here it’s too late 



     _____________________________________________________
     Anyone willing to do the slightest bit of research will find out
     just how big a Jew-hater FDR was from his early years on...And 
     his shocking wave-of-the-hand dismissal of so many urgent
     pleas to spare one or two bombs to target Germany's transport
     of 750,000+ Hungarians Jews to Auschwitz in 1944 STANDS OUT 
     as perhaps his cruelest act as President, right up there with the
     much more widely publicized incarceration of up to 1,800 Japanese-
     Americans during WW2.

Premium Member Three Dreams

As a child I had recurring dreams
Of Indians, death and gorilla themes.

The Indians rode on painted ponies,
So real they seemed, they couldn't be phonies.

Turned out they were real and scouts to boot,
My Dad was tapped out, ain't that a hoot!

The gorillas were loud and right outside,
I cried to Mom, I had to confide.

One morning she woke me and said "Listen up!"
My gorilla was only two bird dog pups!

But the worst of all was my dream of death,
I was dying or dead and couldn't catch breath!

Just how would I die and when would it be?
Turns out I'd have to wait years to see.

Mom said, "Never fear, for Jesus is here."
"Just pray to The Lord, and keep Jesus near."

Soon the dreams faded, gone from my life. 
Understanding my dreams, had lifted my strife.

Premium Member I Am a Misfit, and Proud of It

To all who claim that they are always here for me,
whenever I need to reach out and seek support from anybody.
All of you, and I mean all of you are all hypocritical phonies,
who just want to feel good about themselves selfishly, 
convincing yourself that you're helping one in need,
when all of you couldn't care less in reality.
When I am attempting to pour my heart out with great difficulty,
Shut Your Freaking Mouth, and just listen to me.
Allow me to complete a thought or sentence at the very least.
Don't be so driven to hear yourself talk so eagerly,
because the message you are sending to yours truly,
is, "I'm not listening, I'm not interested, I just want to talk on endlessly."
Allow Me To Express My Grief Openly,
without getting interrupted by your annoying voice continually,
and that's just the hypocrites I've dealt with personally.
To the rest of you out there, the assholes of many,
who claimed, "I'm here for you Bill. I would die for you Billy."
I never asked anything from any of you previously,
but when I asked all of you a small favor that was important to me,
a task performed literally costless, conveniently and effortlessly,
not one single response from my so called family or friends, not any. 
was received from any of you bastards and bitches, not one of you phonies. 
So I guess what I'm trying to express here in it's entirety,
is Screw All Of You Mother Screwing Phonies, SCREW EVERYBODY!
Every MotherScrewing One Of You, STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!

Premium Member Byzantine Blues

My walls were once strong as if Theodosian
But now they're cracked and covered in graffiti
My ambition was once grand as if I was Justinian
But now my goal is to simply make it to tomorrow

Somehow I'm sitting here with Byzantine Blues
Sit with me and sift through the clues
I'm afraid I'm due for a collapse
As if it was 1453 perhaps

My beliefs were once stable and staunch
As if they came from the Patriarch of Constantinople
My friendships were once strong like a Byzantine army
But now I'm left sifting through phonies and fakes

And I'm still sitting here with Byzantine Blues
As ghosts walk among Orthodox pews
I'm afraid I'm due for a collapse
On my window the Grim Reaper taps

Premium Member Larger Than Life

Look at me in the eyes
I'm larger than life
A towering monolith
Surrounded by phonies
And plastic ponies
It's a shame I'm the only
One standing tall
But he who stands tall
Must inevitably fall
At least that's what they say
But they say
So many things
So in one ear
And out the other
Look me in the eyes
Tell me when I'm tellin' lies
Each day is a new chapter
And sure
Maybe I cut some pages out
But I've still got a novel
Built from numerous experiences
And those dark days
Those really dark days
Are like drifting storm clouds
But at the very end
Is a pot of gold
And if I may be bold
Look at me now
I'm larger than life
Yeah, I'm larger than life

AYE KID, BABY JOE

Aye kid, Baby joe
You should know the norms
The world is filled with phonies
Shouting behind the curtains
Do nothin but only to blame

Aye kid, little joe
Cover your eyes, plug your ears
You will know nothing but fears
Why do people not care
Whoever may speak the truths
All lost in herd of sheeps

Aye Kid, little Rebel joe
Let the birds chirp from behind
Where you shout, everyone bites
The world just keep burning on and on
To them nothing seems to matter
Their words filled with nothing but void

Aye kid, big Angry joe
Just be the norms
Become the phony
Close the curtains 
Be the sheep
Join the herd
Don't think 
Coward that you are 
You can only do nothing, 
but learn to blame 

Aye! lonely, Heckler Joe
Be that you are
Forever insane, ignore the sheep
Soon you will find peace in this chaos
Just think not as one but as Own. 
not from your heart, but from within your soul
Let the phonies blame,
But you must become sane

Premium Member A Few of My Suckiest Things With Apologies To Julie Andrews

Stubbing my toeses and whiskers on women
Stepping on nettles and by a swarm of bees bitten
Bounded like hostages tied up with strings
These are a few of my suckiest things

White collared phonies and bills piled in oodles
Bad smells and poop felled from schnauzers and poodles
Old geezers who cry when the old swooner sings 
These are a few of my suckiest things

News from the presses with more stock value slashes
Cornflakes that grow soggy when in the milk splashes
Little wood splinters that felt like a sting
These are a few of my suckiest things

When the moon lights
When the glee sings
When I’m feeling glad
I stumble upon one of my suckiest things
And everything turns bad

Leading You

Leading you!

Close your eyes let me show you the way
Not a hit movie or child's play
Let me reveal some things to you this day
Answer questions family feuds pass my days
My ways are better than yours remember
Like Rocky shot Bull winkle twinkles December
Let me change sides arrange the lyrics to your song
Sony kicked death jam with Chris bomb
Based projects sold fences with wrenches
Battled down tears with walls called truth with suspension
Called out the wanna be's
Bees with no tree flowers with stems broke back pinned in with fig leaves
Let me separate wheat from tears
Phonies with no hairs
Traces of laces lies slipped in with truth see
Listen to me I have all the antidotes
Cable with no remotes
Change traded for stock piles without notes
Who says that I am 
Cap sized skillets sticking like Pam
Pressured arteries hospitalized pumped up with methadone like shame
Discovery hidden in the dark 
Let me reveal to you when light hit the chart
When man made time 
Talk mess with no rhymes
Peeped game like Slick mine
Rick Ross with no crimes
Let me strip up a mid line
Crooked ways been signs
Operated chilled shine
Gold nuggets been laced 
With under cover who based
Truth facts with out states
Property been paid 
No money like mechanical tool base
Wait now later caught up with tooth paste
