bottles broken in my shop
no drinks for sale
nonsense search for happiness
in front of us hard facts
life with in all nakedness
nothing is promised to anyone
shakes hands from behind
once they do not seperate over
A man fights his best against the cold hard facts:
Physics, chemistry, biology and time.
With these opponents he gamely interacts.
Toiling, with love and dreams, any peak he'd climb.
Watching sports, it's the underdog that attracts.
So, choose man with his aspirations, sublime.
Each victory we must cheer and celebrate,
Knowing as we do, the cold hard facts await.
Bad men come,
Bad men come ,
Machete,
machete,
run,
run,
Run.
The screams,
the hacks,
the blade,
the axe.
The cold hard facts .
The west reacts.
and for a moment we stop sipping our tea.
Clear the land,
a masterplan.
No bullet speed,
enjoy the deed.
Machete come.
And the waves of blood cause only ripples in our little pond.
Bad
men
come.
I signed up
I put my name on the line
To take a turn at happiness
And forget the sublime
They took me in a room
And said “take off your clothes”
We need to see if you’re gifted
Or simply disposed
Well I guess I missed the mark
I was an inch or two too short
So I guess that I'll never be
A friend of Deep Throats
It seems like a pity
Because I thought that
I could act
But it ain’t about that
And that’s a cold hard fact.
The universe will simply shrug
Bullets fly, wars be waged
People die, ‘pon worlds stage
Hopes and ambitions
Faith and traditions
Cold hard facts
And simple superstitions
All no more than
Wishful visions
All the world’s fine institutions
Despite man’s resolutions
In the end will be
Doomed to fade away
And the universe… will simply shrug
And go on about It’s way

To know a man
to know a man
is to know what he expects
without him telling you
know what he hates
know what he loves
know what he wants
without a word said
his desires are understood
and prepared for him on a platter
but, once love, respect, and honor
has left the marriage, it becomes
all for nothing
there's nothing i can say that matters
nothing i can do that'll change a thing
just the cold hard facts he no longer desires me
COUNT TO TEN
count to ten
then
back again
one last start
two lost hearts
three star courses
four sound choices
five deep dreams
six slip streams
seven mute skies
eight bound ties
nine steps back

Call yourself a journalist ?
I very much doubt you could even spell the word correctly
The devil's in the tabloid detail
Gossip and fake news
And how many time's a lie is read
So i remind you of the cold hard facts
You couldn't write a truthful story
If it stabbed you in the back
Your reputation proceeds you and is both earned and well deserved
As you are the answer to the question ?
What is the difference between a reporter
and a hack ?
P.M is not a pseudonym
