Addiction

Dear ......,

Its over, it's finished, I mean it - we're through!
I thought it was me but now know it was you.
I'm done with your lies, your greed, my fixation
insatiable urge that precedes degradation.

It's cost me too much this affair of ours;
this obsession consumed me for years, days and hours.
Without you I'm free to flourish and thrive,
my sparkle returns, with my passion and drive.
The skin of shame peels slowly and soon 
I'll be free of your poison and flee my cocoon.

Your shadow remains and lurks all around,
One chink in my armour and soon you'll surround.
You'll smother me at my lowest ebb
and lure me back to your toxic web.
But once for you is never enough
I know that now, the truth is tough..

Ill never again succumb in your midst
to false claims of confidence, courage and grit.
Without you I'm changing, my fashion bespoke
One day you'll crawl past my invisible cloak.

My skin glows, my waist shrinks, my hair is now glossy.
My tissues are mending, my sick genes less bossy!
I hear peace without your seductive whisper
My heart thaws and ventures into the vista

I can search my soul and not feel empty:
the void replaced, my hope is plenty!
I'm starting to use the gifts that you hid,
The girl in the mirror is lifting her lid.

Peering into the world, clear eyes bright and blue
I touch, taste and smell, inhaling the view.
Less fear of your fog clouding my vision.
I love what I see, painting colours my mission...

When you rap on my brain, trying to grab my attention
I delve into my toolbox of mental distractions.
You'll lure me and stalk like the fool that you are
just to tempt me, just one, its only a jar...

My shield will deflect you with super-girl force!
My willpower steely, your shadow a ghost.
Your influence dwindles the stronger I grow'
your blood sucking shackles bleed into the snow.

Like the “matchstick girl” I've seen the light.
Your shadow shrivels  GIVE UP this fight!
You're losing, you're fading your voice is diminished.
Superfluous now, I don't need you - it's finished!

I'm saying so long, it was fun while it lasted.
Move on, to more fish you'll be flabbergasted..
There are many lost souls in this world to seduce
Not me though, not I, I'm cutting loose.
Its time to say goodbye cruel friend
I'm out, this really is the end!

Samantha Malone, December 2020.

Super Hero Chadwick Boseman

Any one can be super 
Try being a hero 
Let me explain 
You initially lose more 
Than you gain 
But the strength you carry 
Makes you gain 
And you have no room left to complain 
The outcome the Impact 
The way people react makes you proud
Saving the world one person one family at a time 
During these unpredictable times 
Giving peace and faith 
That we can still run this race 
And you did it so well 
With dignity and grace
We face so many things 
Some never have been heard 
You hold on to his Word 
Have you heard 
Have you seen the light 
In individual eyes 
To know that like bread 
We still will rise 
Not just in dough 
We will rise eternally though 
Touching lives who seemed lifeless 
That kind of impact is priceless 
Paving the way 
For others 
Sticking together sister and brothers 
Loving one another more than ever 
You see that is a power so clever 
Levels to success 
Giving your all trying your best 
To impress 
A world who has lost its value 
Lost its way 
Still empowering letting others know everything is going to be ok 
We all are fighting our own battles 
Shaking , breaking down 
To a world that is no longer found 
No longer bold 
Government trying to have control 
Stop take it back 
Superhero you are on track 
Be great be amazing 
Be you , that's what the world is craving 
There would be no one without another 
Super 
My heroes start lifting up each other 
No matter what 
Keep pushing keep pressing
One power that I hope would vanish is stressing
For it's a blessing to have something unique 
As yourself 
And for once you don't have to be anyone else 
But this unique individual 
Is a prized possession
Who has overcome overcame
Our Ancestors would be proud 
For our voice to heard loud 
Chad you and so many others have paved the way
Wakanda forever is what I'll say 
Your message to the world 
Is to be water then the seeds and the root 
Be the stomp on the ground of a giant boot 
Footprints are left 
That we are honored to walk 
You did more than talk 
You lived out your vision 
That was wise a great decision
Be the root, then be the soil
Be the water that boils 
Be on fire 
Be hot 
It's our world 
Give it all you got
 The pearly gates you have been chosen 
Rest in Power King 
Chadwick Boseman

Wicked

These feelings I harbor so deep down in my heart and soul
The ones I've tried so hard to just ignore
My present and future time is not my own because my emotions have taken control
They've come back from my past with a vengeance and want to settle the score
They won't release their hold and I don't know where they are taking me
The plot here now thickens
The place I'm at now I don't want to be
Emotions and feelings are running high and it's extremely wicked

I had you back for a brief moment in time
I thought I'd finally again seen the light
There goes life again screwing with my mind
Now my soul's on an endless flight
Long ago I thought I'd put you and your memory far behind
but my heart still finds you when I close my eyes at night
I'm lying here on the floor for you I'm always bleeding
One can only bleed so much and for quite sometime my time here as it's known is tickin'
Leaving me here to die this way is so very wicked

Don't you know by now you are the one who has me completely spellbound
You have me so trapped by your love, that your side is where I'm chained and I don't want 
them breaking
In your arms is the only place I so long to be found
Are you just going to leave me here forsaken
I'm trying hard not to make a sound
Even if my soul is what you keep taking
And there's my heart still laying on the ground
Can't you yet clearly see
Or has she got you turned that far upside down and twisted so much it has you sickened
She will never be able to every love you like me
And to you it's so frightenly wicked

I'm right here in this same place still screaming out your name
Even though she's holding you everyday
I gave you my love and unlike her I never gain it in vain
So will it end up being you or her who's left walking away 
Because it will happen just the same as it did with her before because all she's doing to you 
is playing a game
Try looking each other in the eyes to tell I love you to the other bet you just can't find the 
words to say
You and I however, did it before
But no words needed to actually be spoken because as we looked into each others eyes to 
you my heart listened
Please on us don't once again just close the door
Don't do that yet another time to me just because she's the one with whom is so
Dementally wicked

Premium Member Speaker

Speaker, speaker I'm listening...

You’re doing the right thing!
Unswayed from Kremlin propaganda
Isn’t how our country should swing
Faith changed; policies rearranged
Soul-searching, amazing grace you’ve seen the light
Unveilings of the autocrat,
Eluded the venomous snake bite
Boldly repelled the takeover of the Muscovite
Three foreign aid bills, thanks to you and Democrats!
Aid to Orient’s Formosa!
Aid to Eastern Europe!
Aid to Middle East!
Unwavering commitments 
A revelation at the least
God’s saintly ears?
Send hope to the starving children of war and genocide
Listen to their screams and let them feast
They need YOU!  by their side
Foreign war package they say does nothing for America,
Yet …it bolsters our reputation and saves our souls!  
Keeps our sons and daughters home, out of harms way  

Speaker, speaker Oyez! Oyez!                                                                
Now women need your help with rights of the Miranda

                …---...SOS …---...

This will unfold, as I shall explain,
Again and again, more propaganda
There is a time for trifle idling, 
there’s always time to dilly dally
With hard won rights now unbridling
But as for now, for our rights we rally
Crucial help for those will finally arrive
Good folks, unlike the Copperheads of yesteryear,
Or the Doughfaces, who let it happen, no ego here just strive
Women don’t live in fear!

Speaker, speaker I’m listening...

First and fourth amendment, 1864 
Gone now, it isn’t anymore
Criminalizing women
Criminalize their travel
Pull over and pee on the strip!
Cops shall ask you for a pregnancy test
Ill fated, before you even begin your trip
Soon you’ll be stopped from your life’s zest

God’s saintly ears?
Send hope to the starving children of war and genocide
And for women’s automony

A unsettling Ad just viewed
Young women pulled over
Not an exaggeration 

Speaker, speaker, I’m listening… 

Your own want you gone,
Because to the other side you compromise and fawn,
All is music in God’s saintly ears?

You did good as statesmen should, risking all
I quote you now when you say,
“Let the chips fall where they may”

Premium Member Lusting Abyss, His Darkness - Act 1

Darkness is he, soulless totally
It's abyss he commands, desiring what he sees

In front of him stands a virgin, pure as the driven snow
For white he knows it is, upon she his darkness will show

Long haired and silken clad, his lusting eyes allure his own
Is it fear that makes her pert, or the fear of being alone

*~*

Upon his lap she stands, so minute to his ogre mass
Her silken attire now torn, talon fingers on she he grasps

Innocent flesh he craves, to satisfy his empty soul
In his lusting abyss, his darkness will soon unfold

*~*

Petite, pert so perfect, ageing hands of his darkened past
Cup her porcelain charms, so grotesque is his grasp

Leering eyes of void, now alive to this virgins flesh
Excitement fills his wants, this maiden near total undress

A strangeness falls amidst this darkened scene
Has she succumbed, is she in the middle or has she seen

*~*

To his torso of centuries old, attention is drawn to he
Reciprocating she kisses in touch, with drooling eyes he sees

This virgin standing in front of him, allured now is she
So minute to his ogre mass, content she appears to be

*~*

Lips touching taste, eyes closed, are they in wonderment
Has she entered his darkened abyss, or is he now heaven sent

Lashing tongues, like a fencing épée now drawn
When his dark met her light, I struggle for the forlorn

Breaths are seldom apart, it's as if magnetic, they are
This join of abyss fuelled white, seems so bizarre

*~*

Lecherousness in his tasting rush, her scent he delves in deep
This virgin, this maiden so taken, to him now she seeps

Like diamonds, her pertness rises, en-capturing her charms
So different when she stood before him, all in alarm

*~*

Tailored they are not, such a difference in size
This virgin maiden so white, soon to be in firm cries

Thralled he now becomes, induced in his darkened dark
He now revels in his taken, amidst thighs of perfection arch

Forlorn has now become, a joining of lustful desires
Black locks now sway with delight, the dark now afire

*~*

Positioning, seasoned they are, in joyful joining crave
Now the darkness has seen the light, in typical deprave

Sighs now resonate, amidst his darkened dingy hell
The allure of purring white, increase his darkening swell

*~*

Salt Lake Expression Ii

Caring is cool, my poetry is revolutionary, 
im scaring a school, the team is on my back and i carry them to, 
the promised land, atlas shrugged and gave me you, 
the world on my shoulders and i am prepared to share the truth

Too many lies permeate into innocent minds, 
fight for peace? Who are we to kill our own kind, 
militia dont kill my vibe,
i see what i speak is on the rise, 
the dawn is so close yet we are in the dark (k)night, 
but it is so important that now is our hardest fight

Lennon and kennedy, started what i attempt to steady speak, 
if you're still a sheep in search of a team you can get with me, 
this is the only medium where I largely get to speak, 
the world will be inherited by the meek, 
that doesnt mean dont be strong, im arming the weak

The voice of Ed the hyena is done by Cheech Marin, 
in that scene Scar is surrounded by smoke that's green, 
what other subtle symbolism has been used by Disney? 
Even if it is discreet, more characters die in their movies, 
violence to the kids is what our society feeds

Im gonna quote Marilyn Manson- is adult entertainment killing our kids? Or is killing our kids entertaining adults? 
Most messages of hip hop glorify hittin the asphalt, 
rather than encourage em to sell crack off, 
we could encourage em to read, not be trapped or play basketball 

I don't know, but like the title of this mixtape is, 
its just Gourmet food for thought, why so serious? 
There's no reason to be fearing this, 
unless you're fearing within,
i quiet my thoughts through a meditative experience, 
experiment...

Find out what is subjectively true, 
when you get told how to think, question it too, 
in this life all you'll ever be left with is you, 
speak when you stand so you represent the mute

A wise woman once said the only thing worse than no sight, 
is having no vision, ive seen the light, 
yeah it didn't last long but i know im the brother that was meant to write, 
my favorite number is seven, thats the days in Genesis right? 
My door is always open to let in and invite, 
a pen is my instrument, yet currently i type, 
for this Christmas im getting a mic,
 in these recordings im working to send you my life

My One and Only

I know my fate, Give it to My One And Only
 Reaching to the top to the bottom for My One And Only
 Who is My One And Only? 
 God, So everyday give it to My One And Only
 
 Now I know of many that are lacking and poor in heart
 But the words of Jesus are unending, Reaching to what's in the dark
 Now judge this and tell me what's better
 To know what's better, But settling for lesser
 Now I need help, So I call the Lord daily
 Like a blind man looking for riches, But I believe I'll find it daily
 Now that's my life, So you live yours
 And wonder how an eagle soars
 That's crazy isn't it, But I can tell you more
 Maximum use for sufficiency helps me to learn more
 About myself, Cause that's where it starts
 I'm in the big grocery store with a great many carts
 Let me lay it on the line, Stay away from false
 Cause no one that is false would ever want to pay the cost
 Since I have sinned, God I know I will die 
 But my hope is that the world will see heaven riding high
 
 I know my fate, Give it to My One And Only
 Reaching to the top to the bottom for My One And Only
 Who is My One And Only?
 God, So everyday I give it to My One And Only
 
 I have seen the light in a dark and cold world
 This is not dress rehearsal, So I can twirl the world
 My mind is not of what I should boast
 It's my spirit, Of which God mends the most
 So mold me to be the best I can
 Maybe even better than best to be the best man
 So am I in control or the one that sent me
 Only focus on positive for the message I'm sending
 Now if you can break chains Jesus will be your friend
 And you can aim for higher goals until this is the end
 Pour out love in its purest form
 It's the greatest thing I've seen aside from the norm 
 Now I must finish The "American Dream" worthwhile
 At the same time, Time stops for a while
 To see everything and why god made me
 To live the good life before the day I D.I.E.
 
 I know my fate, Give it to My One And Only
 Reaching to the top to the bottom for My One And Only
 Who is My One And Only?
 God, so everyday I give to My One And Only.

Premium Member There's Still Time

There will be a gentle calm before the mighty storm.                                                                                             There will be total silence before someone blows the horn.                            

20 seconds flew by as the rivers all run dry; 100 seconds to go.
The clock is ticking at a fiercely steady pace and will cease, come midnight.                                                           It seems the moon and stars have gotten word that mankind has seen the light. Peace accords have been agreed upon and signed; all is calm, quiet and still. The United Nations and The big Five now realize there's no more need to kill.                                                      

30 seconds rushed by as the oceans and seas came ashore; 70 seconds more.
For the last three and a half years, all the world has become one big lovely place. All debts have been forgiven and legal obligations are null, void, and all erased. Sins against humanity and crimes against the state are no longer held accountable. Great leaders have struck a harmonious tune of goodwill that's absolutely unbelievable.                                                  

40 seconds flew by as the fires consumed the forest; 30 seconds and counting down. But the happy citizens of the world have failed to realize that the sun has set and it's too late. The clock has always been ticking, alarms have been warning us of a destiny mankind can't navigate. Now, it's just a 'matter of time', 30 seconds more to be exact, and time as we know it will tick its last.                           The true colors of everyone will surface, and all entities as we know them will become a thing of the past.

30 seconds of human horror, madness, and terror jetted into oblivion; and time stood still.
02062018PS Contest, The Doomsday Clock, 2 Minutes to Midnight; 3rd. Place                                                                                    "There was silence in heaven for about half an hour" Revelations 8:1

The Mud

I can hear the voices calling out beneath as they plunge further into the deep, a large body of water swirling around them like quicksand falling out of the heaven and desperate voices of sorrows, crying out for help, but they sink deeper into the water shed until they reach the valley of the dead. 

I stood at the mouth of the Precipice pacing around with my hands on my hip looking round at dead bodies washing away in the ocean, my heart reaches out to them but I could not do anything to save them.
  
Cars and vans buried in mud saw a sudden flood of water gushing down the stream washing away the Arabs dream. Everything that they own was washed away in seconds from the throne, house and land, man and van was swept out in the deep. 

 And those in the precipice below had nowhere to go, they clung to each other screaming and crying from the valley but there was no one to help and they need someone to tell the story of how they breathe the last breath, as the stung of death resonate from  the deep.  

I held on to my courage and hum a silent song as the last ruminants of death trod along, with the final words from the dying soul harmonize with the breeze. "I have seen the light give me something to nyam",  and silence sinks slowly into the ground filtering death all around. 

My heart could not bear it my body could not contain it, the stench of death muddied the water everywhere, opening up the fountain for disease in the land and on the shore. 

The water split the road into two and creates a block between the west and you, there was no way to cross over to the other side, you have to create a bridge on which to abide. 

The water had broken out of the dam swallowing the city houses and land, the cities were cut off from each other sending gushes of water up to the ninth floor, taking precious lives with them and leaving mud all over the floor. 

But the screaming valleys stood still and the smell of death lingers on its shore.
