Conscious suppression exposed,
Naked as the day I was born
Thrust into life's Mardi Gras...

a presumed thought of superiority;

Artificial means of controlling my own depression
For all of these old feelings I've contained through suppression.
Sadly never forgetting how others left such an impression....

During the not-so-Great Depression
   FDR practiced self-suppression
'chatting with us' just once a week

During the current pandemic
   Press conferences are epidemic
Pols grabbing every microphone to speak...

Deceit
You falsify the truth.
As you stammer across your words.
To employ a hateful militia.
With your manipulative lies, & extortion.
That’s your way of suppression.
Of preposterous imminent immorality of deceit....

Spurning Russia’s repression
   or China’s suppression
What’s left to stop
   America’s digression

The Church lost its hold
  Morality put on a blindfold
Freedom without discipline
  produced violence internecine...

Were suppressed
The kids are depressed
The scary tango till death
We scream till were out of breath
It’s dangerous
We dance beneath the stars
While covered in scars
We march to the dead beat
Till the death tastes sweet

suppress memories 
lock them away behind 
a steal door that leads 
to a hidden room deep 
within the subconscious mind
never to be re-opened again 
leave them there to rot away
and wither and die 
burred underneath years 
of regret...

Self-righteous oppressor
do not assume you’ve prevailed
you deem yourself clever
give into you – never!
puppeteer?
I say not!
you cannot hold me taut 
I sever the ties
where suppression lies
to witness unmarked chance
with a pair of unveiled eyes...

Desire to acquire
Desire to control
Desire to Feel
& the need to Heal

Submissive senses
hormonal outburst
rushing of mind 
in a direction uncontrolled

a sort of vengeance
provoked by emotions
& suppression
a lively lesson
involving mind heart body
& passion...

Listen to my voice
There is no longer a choice
Unless I stand up and make noise
You power on me you will deploys 

I take off the chains of suppression 
Walk down the narrow path to progression
Let go into the air all the transgression
And give up the haunting misimpression...

In times of pain and oppression
Only the smooth melodies of the calypso beat
Eases depression
The remedy to perish your existing suppression
A fine art filled with spontaneous expression

In times of agony and stress
Music alone can fix that mess
In sadness, when we feel useless.

My life is barbed wire
Shall I string myself along?

Suppression takes more forms
Than Playtex has bras
Am I to be dominated
By someone else’s God?

We addict ourselves
To all we hold most dear
Our loves ... Our fears ... Our hatreds

Enslavement is liberating!
Pass ME the yoke
Of freedom...

Depression is my only song
Transgression with poetic verse
Nonaggression where it may belong
Suppression of feelings of self worth

Days I have spent locked in my mind
Ways to escape these feelings I do not crave
Praise my ways to have my shadows defined
Raise me from the confines of the depraved...

Dragons have dreams too;
stereotyped, they have been.
quite a friendly lot;
just like us they love to play;
they strive quite hard, to please us.

Dragon suppression, creates great illness
and pain; free your dragon.
Open your heart and release;
for dragons live within us.

She looked much like Miss Elizabeth Bennett though very ill without Mr. Darcy
Nor had she the determination to speak up as Elizabeth had in this age of 
suppression
So accomplished, reading, singing and playing the piano all day.
Beautiful that she was, she set no examples for improvement nor remembrance....

A stroll on the high rise of men’s wall
The heart steadily depicts the mind’s fall
  Built of mind to suppress
  Within__  wickedness nests
One soul contemplates the mind’s gall

 In honor of Pablo Neruda(Poet, diplomat, and politician)

For Contest: Pablo Neruda

I have to make a confession.
My new year’s resolution is to kick this bad habit called depression
I will leave it to the people who have made concession
For their selfish personal suppression
Of  “I’m a failure” obsession expression
Their transgression of depression 
One can consider as a new profession...

Let bye-gones be bye-gones musing backwards ceasing to remember  how time has past seems so amplifying, yet a overcast evoking images in one's psyche of the rise
and falls substained. Chronicles  of one's minds, hearts and souls  freeness from escaping suppression substained taking stock of letting
bye-gones be bye-gones....
