The half cost of silence
is still overpriced
Each question unspoken
a chasm for vice
When blind to the moment
all vision exhausts
Each voice that is muted
— its own holocaust
(Dreamsleep: August, 2024)
Designer shoe ads
Magazine ridiculous
Overpriced items
Movie stars can afford them
Regular people cannot
Exorbitant price
Two thousand dollar blouses
Dresses? Do not ask
Money I will never have
Magazine ridiculous
The ending of a year
New Year Eve
Never fail to
Make me depressed
Tonight I will go
To a restaurant
Eat overpriced food
And keep up pretence
At midnight
Clink of glasses
And bleating as
The dumb sheep we are
We have survived
This year too
In a crazy world heading
Towards war
Valentine, shmalentine
Chocolate adds to her behind
Sugar doesn't make her sweeter
It costs a fortune tryin' to feed 'er
Jewelry, shmewelry
Better think twice
It's mass produced
And overpriced
Cupid, shmupid
You know that's fake
Angels don't shoot arrows
Give me a break!
January 20217
Black diamond, fools gold,
overpriced and undersold.
Falling vices, rising prices,
and all the things that we are told.
Percussive concussion, concussive percussion,
endless discussion.
A round of applause for revealing your flaws,
your sin serves to feed them their spin.
If you had our fears, if we gave you our hopes,
we'd devour ourselves from within.
Form:
You are a thousand miles of sheer delight,
When I turn the key our passions ignite,
Firing off a strong robust heart that's yours,
My knees weaken waxing your sleek contours,
O' my splendiferous, overpriced Genie,
My bright yellow, dream Matchbox* Lamborghini

His old house is crumbling away..Speed- aged by a motorist..I do not make any play.'
Its on the register of old English buildings at risk.'
Estimates at dollars sixteen million to fix
Such very old sticks.' Which i think is exessive as
Its only built light' beams laths and clay tiles
Foundations rather slim, on average only nine
Inches, the earth deep in.' so that cost
i see as really
Grim, nearly as obverblown? as is great appreciation of him."
On a quest to kill all the monsters..
auto repairs,
wifi lag,
busted pipes,
the style but no ride.
Kill all the monsters.
Hunger and hopelessness,
no ambition,
overpriced everything,
that radicalized A.I.
Kill all the monsters.
Anxiety,
abusing your body,
insomnia,
any flash in the pan.
Kill all the monsters.
Lost winning lottery ticket,
an addiction to possibility,
hypocrisy, and paranoia.
To kill all these monsters, I’m on a quest.
My brother Fred thinks outside the box
Wears red and green polka dot socks
He still collects overpriced pet rocks
Eats bagel holes, no cream cheese or lox
Sister Sue sleeps with the horse in the barn
Her iridescent make-up sets off alarms
She's got a pair of tatooed arms
Among her other diverse charms
Me, I'm the white sheep of the bunch
When I eat, I snap, crackle, crunch
'Course it depends on what I have for lunch
On curried cockroach krispies, I like to munch
