Masques of Tyranny

Tyranny wears no single face—
it dances in silk and iron,
in laughter rippling through marble halls,
in jeweled cups brimming with poison.

Here stand five shadows cloaked in power:
the Jade Empress who penned her conquests in ink of blood;
the Blood Countess who bathed in youth’s final heartbeat;
the Poison Queen whose roses wilted on royal lips;
the Thorned Mother sculpting

FIGHTING TYRANNY

When oppressed by a cruel and merciless government, when we no longer feel free
there are some things we need to do to fight this tyranny:

First we need to think of all our ancestors and relatives who fought in all our wars…
Who fought and died so tyranny would never reach our shores.

But now that it has

Defeating Tyranny

Defeating Tyranny

This is how to overthrow tyranny:
elections by a free people who care
peaceful transfer of power
alternative media outlets to counter brainwashing
decreasing the size of government
ridding a society of mandates by unelected officials
stopping demonization of average citizens
halting massive monetary corruption
short of divine intervention 
this is how it is done

it is difficult~ many obstacles to freedom exist

Tyranny can start in innocous ways.' In nudges and flattery
Setting a stage.' It can be mocking.? And hectoring' quote
Morality with invective stings' its antidote i am considering? Which may well need to be a charge against
Its political wing.? With no further deliberation i advise..
Overwhelming assinine-ations.' A large dose of their own
Medicine.' Would clear up much;

An Invisible Dictatorship Subtle Tyranny and Mask To attentive Observers is now Slipping and Fast

Overture toward false Maritime Law,
Commercial illegality Certificate of Births,
What on Earth then are we really here for?
Is but one query in a desperate realm, a sea of illusion and neurotic mirth..
Trapped in voyage to an occult fellow-ship,
Babylonian Pharisee Dogma and a sinister bloated girth,
Man did not consent to this grotesque hidden dictator-ship,

Unity Against Tyranny

A country in turmoil
An imposter sits on the throne
From the moment he takes office
Stripping our rights away like a banana
Leaving us slipping on the peels
Trying to figure out what the Hell to do.

Workers vanish from the crop fields,
who will harvest the produce?
Pulled from WHO and essential health research,
how will we know of the next pandemic,
let

Our Time Will Come

In broad day light
In plain sight
The rain has fallen 
And evaporated free
Speech over night
Riotous murder
Blame the simpletons
Protect the perpetrators
Who’ve political value
Kill the prisoner
Who shouted a view
Don’t write a thought
Or they’ll come for you
Two
Shrinking in fear
Of the new two tear
Five years to endure
But hopefully, not one 
Minute more
Meanwhile thousands 
Might die, but no will
To keep the

I am a Refugee

I'm a refugee 
in my own country
I'll never be free
because they've 
labelled me

They say I'm far right
And I'm not too bright
Took away free speech
Now it's out of reach

My mother would tell me
as I sat upon her knee
how we had saved the world
from tyranny.
She'd say how great we were
how freedom was our spur
I had no idea

Bob Dylan's Hard Rain updated for 2024

Oh what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you see, my darling young one?

I saw truth tellers doxed, and their addresses listed
I saw images on my cellphone put on by the twisted
I saw a prophet wailing as he was dragged to the madhouse
I saw madmen gaining all the levers of power
I saw wolves

The New Tyranny 
I had this nagging headache and went to see
my doctor, his waiting room was full of humanity
with an assortment of illnesses
The table in the middle of the floor used to be
full of newspapers and magazines, it was nude and
didn't even covered with a tablecloth
there was silence, ten patients looking at their
mobile phones while

TYRANNY

From the mass arose, a one of its kind---
          Resolved to affect, the whole of mankind.
               A brain gifted to influence the lot.
         

The End of Freedom

("Turning of the Tide", 2019, original encaustic)

The End of Freedom

In the long winter nights
As everyone sleeps
Or long summer days
As everyone plays
The force of habits
Long ingrained
By sheepish tendencies
Embraces and envelopes
And strangles by degree
What it means to be free
Soon in the name of peace
And security
Democracy and freedom
All freedom is lost
And what is left
Is only dark and dry
