Only soul relate....

to fantasy preachers,
my indignation !
on this atrocious planet
fierce and unhappy
we live locked up and wear masks!
Why the illusion!?...

Always be certain --
Don’t expect forgiveness
Given harmful indignation
Just keep laughing
My noble opponent
Particularly quarrelsome
Ribaldry seems to unleash
Very worrisome x-rays,
You zygote!...

Penchants of dusk,
Forever inflamed in my heart.
Slowly gives rise to incredulity,
And perpetually gnaws away at my soul.
For this indignation,
Even conflicts between the distraught beings inside of me....

David has become Goliath
Goliath has become David
the world is spinning
out of control
nuclear bullets
battle paper butterflies

The indigenous as usual
suffer indignation
history spins in circles
again and again

Once I whispered like a child
Cup-handed (gleefully)
But the cup is full of whiskey now
I fumbled (shamefully)
My head was filled with light
Your imagination: my symphony
My mind is cluttered now
My indignation: your sympathy...

Poverty's a politician who takes what he can get

and Poverty's a barratician that makes what he can threat.

Yet Poverty's a garignation of what we want to take

when Poverty's our indignation for what we have to make....

tanka, no tanka
just syllabification
a lingua franca
a certain formulation
in need of a vacation

hoping sensation
engaged form degradation
brought indignation,
abhorrence, irritation
and requests for cessation

This is anger..
This is indignation..
This is lividity..

This is red.

The darkness fades away in my rearview mirror while I stare ahead at a brilliant white light.

In the strangeness of the grey that I pass behind I notice the delicate scribbles of faint red lines....

Apathy’s paralyzation,
Iridescent indignation,
Steely eyed, grim concentration,
Ebullient, effuse elation,
Scheming klepto pilferation,
And dysphoric ideation
Drugs for every situation
Prescription proliferation
Pharmacological nation
Where’s my pills? Where in tarnation?...

Faint yellow is the first to appear
Leaves march forth in harmonic progression
To autumn’s clock all must adhere
Amber, scarlet and purple in procession
Bring gasps of wonder till winter’s colorless indignation

When those abominable moments in our lives come
 
And with indignation our voices to heavens raise
       
We must think of the instances happiness our was
 
But failed the eyes skywards to turn, our Lord to praise!

Clanks,

blanks,

cranks,

clash!

Slams in tank,

detours irate!

Ingenious infiltrates,

sojourns knocking,

indignation on the plank,

plutocracy dank!

Dotards are prate,

iridescence is just as late-

prime meridian,

songs obsidian,

and the incandescence great!...

Jealousy
Written: by miracle man
2-10-2020

Does another's success cause you any pain?
Does envy have a place to rest in your heart?
We should be happy when another gets gain,
and in their rejoicing also be a part. 


“Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo”
H. G. Wells

No! 
Brave I am not, my
Friends,
It’s only my indignation for 
The injustice committed against 
So many good people*
That
Makes me, for justice, like a lion 
To ROAR!

*Many people are not fairly treated for they are good!
Jusice should prevail here!...

Than to intermingle the
     Soul and there is no
Calling much higher
    Than a man
Of indignation who
Must consume the fire
   In order that he
Can elevate him-self
      To a place
Where the call return's
Him to the course of
     Correction
Restored to his righful
         Place

Your voice, your fickle mind...
It makes me scream. 
I scream from inside out, 
With no noise escaping my mouth. 

Indignation closes my eyes,
Tired. 
I am so tired of screaming, 
Pretending to tolerate this. 

My heart is heavy with the rubbish.
You've gathered it, 
And I've hauled it along - 
Weighing down our drawn out affair....

When those abominable moments in our lives arrive, my loving friend 
 
And with indignation our voices to heavens, in protest, we wish to raise
       
Have to remember, the instances when happiness our companion was 
 
But we failed skywards, our eyes to turn to, for our dear Lord to praise!

When those abominable moments in our lives come, my beloved brothers,
 
And with indignation our voice to heaven, in protest, we feel to raise
 
We have to remember the instances of happiness our companions were
 
That we did fail, miserably, skywards our eyes to turn to, our Lord to praise!

Soft like sheep
The Clan in white sheets
Full of indignation
And ignorance
They march to their own battle cries
Care not for innocents who have to die
Their cause though evil, noble in their eyes
As Hamas, they burn those with education who decry
The violent aggressions 

Their deceptive practices and petty battles
Become pretty slogans for the misguided ones...

EXTRA  EXTRA

Contextual Comrades Incarcerated,

Victims of vitriols vexation 
denied the rights of their inquisitors.
Censored by the voices of shame
guilt and hubris masquerading
as righteous indignation.
Virtue’s vanity
shouting from the “bully” pulpit
concerned only with its own reflection
“gutturally” genuflecting
before a muted “god”.
