Clowns bickering over bullying allegations 
Imagine the hyprocracy 
expressed inside these certain voices 
claiming they are defending the indefensible 
When they stand totally ignorant 
in favour of killing babies 
Truth has a backbone to every word 
within that which takes away 
the value from human life


Semantic Intolerance

I remember this word, when it was a veritable curse;
It spoke of  actions, beliefs, feelings and ideas that were
reprehensible and indefensible, only worthy of our condemnation

I remember when it was a vile and shameful descriptor; 
It was synonymous for ignorance, hate, injustice, inhumanity
It was abhorrent, it was unforgivable, it was.....intolerable

Intolerance..... what has become of you?

Halcyon

The statement of valediction was given
But nobody ever attended the farewell
Left me like maim indefensible 

The sense of tranquility was never there
But watching you fall-asleep
Made my insomniac nights serene 

The process of forgetting was always hard
But remembering you was gratuitous
Placed melancholy to me 

The connotation of love was blur
But that glare of your eyes
Framed me in infatuation

Human Rights

The Untouchables 
Above the Law
Only the subservient 
Adhere to the rule of Law
The Law pays no heed to the victim's 
Human rights 
Is a criminals charter
A Guilt edged 24 carrot get out of jail card
To be called upon when caught
Currency for Lawyer's 
Willing to defend the indefensible 
For the price of silver and gold
Any lie or defense told
For anyone any crime 
They are willing to cross any Grey lines

United

‘I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America,’ 
Where elephants and donkeys in the media prompt hysteria, 
‘And to the Republic for which it stands,’ 
Devotion lies in political assassinations if one doesn’t comply or withstand, 
‘One Nation under God,’
Whilst following religious law and trading faith for facade, 
‘Indivisible,’
Indefensible, 
‘With liberty and justice for all,’
With negligence for protocol.


Almost Got Me

Stretched beyond limits
    of ability
to participate in
open heart
    nakedness
rebuilding
dead bolted
     resolution
     to
never
     be 
        here
           again
by myself
     without
[hated] cynicism firmly
     in place
in overanxious
anticipation
of indefensible abuse
    by
your diligent perseverance
to turn
me
into a
  fiercely hated
         H E R

I feel safe here
Far.
Removed.
From.
You.

Case No 3-2-2026

consider how you harness hate when you proclaim love
passion can be congruent with damnation 
blinding even the dearest souls to destructive acts
allowing the indefensible to be expressed 

'in the name of love' does not offer absolution 

I speak via the vantage point of the exhausted
resolve all the ill will residing beneath your skin
your song makes claims that love hurts
yet your actions irrefutably proving
it is indeed you that hurt
