With Love Comes Change
Ingrained within humanity
Lies blatant, crass profanity.
A product of mundanity;
(That's smoldering volcanity,
With all of its inanity),
Is lacking in urbanity
And borders on insanity!
What seems a mere formality,
Could lessen such brutality,
(Or hinder some fatality);
By changing ones mentality
Towards a new morality:
Of love inclined reality.

I Think, Therefore Am I?
Neck cracking penumbra
shines on starlit mundanity
ebon macabre epiphanies
fogwebs of my morality
my tongue twists ceaselessly
trinkets of truffled profanity
dearest mirror, mirror reality
has humanity cursed me?
For the fatality of dreams
bared in broken bosoms
of madness and brutality
masked by faux urbanity
crowns like a dead infant
delivered from its womb
into the arms of inanity
a morbidly, tragic formality
But still steadfast I warrior
heart held bleeding in hand
cur-sed whispers of volcanity
bent echoes of forced vitality
to sever the seams of malady
and hand scribe the braindust
of my cursive minded mentality
upon reams of papered therapy
shrouded by inky black misery
of things thought but never told
to a world swilled in sugar beliefs
of dappled sun and spun parasols
rainbow thoughts and red carousels
while I continue to wander down
this darkened tunnel of insanity

In this new world, the reality of insanity
Elicits frail morality, losing deep values
To cuthroat urbanity. We thirst for quick fixes
And dismiss gentle formality although life
Grants humanity its spirit’s wholeness—
How can greed and power allow us to ignore
Kindness, simple vitality borne from Hope,
Our birthright amid mundanity? Is man’s dream
Caged in temporal inanity where success
Is appraised by materialism or arrogant fame?
Such brutality! We forget the path of compassion
As time forges on in despotic volcanity, while
Children grow imbibing a mentality that existence
Lies in crude profanity based on self-interest…
Where is love in this equation?A doomed fatality
Of modern times , perhaps. I wonder.

Do not balk at this reality–our bloody brutality–
for our fathers have learnt long ago,
that while humanity is quite plagued with insanity,
there is hope we can nourish and grow.
It is the height of inanity–our accursed volcanity!
The dawn sees betrayal and lies.
Strangling morality, robed in profanity,
our brothers break all of their ties.
Our purpose is clear, our mentality of vitality,
buttressed by union of all 'neath the sky.
No simple urbanity, and hardly formality,
it is to the heavens our noble dreams fly.
No sword can fall in a stroke of mundanity–
not when divine will comes with each fatality.

HUMANITIES REALITIES
The morality rate is at an all-time low
Disparity runs ramped in the streets
The reality of it all screams out "NO"
While everyone's volcanity seethes in heat
The fatality of decency, the mundanity of life
Lost vitality in heart, mind, body , and soul
The profanity we curse caused by pain and strife
Trying to think with a mentality like a 5 year old
The inanity of our Spirituality is cause for concern
Fearing the brutality of he who holds the keys
The formality in how we all just wait our turn
While people in urbanity walk around on their knees
The insanity of humanity, such a depressive state
Exhausting our veracity beating on one another
The criminality in our belief, the fires burn in hate
Glamourizing the totality of pitting brother against brother

How to use these words, I ponder, a fabulous creation of humanity!
Words set to hold man in the cage of formality, guarding it well from inanity.
Words that hurt, words that please; choose profanity or urbanity.
But, the volcanity of man’s nature cannot be contained in a pot of morality.
This is the fatality; an unfortunate reality of man’s mentality.
He dances on the line of variables tended at the ends by mundanity and vitality.
At one end he may sink into insanity while on another he may embrace brutality!

In the canvas of twilightish insanity
Appear pomegranate designs of passion
An intellectual dance of day flowing into night
In the sea inside skull, the heartbeats of humanity
Vibrating with rurality towards urbanity
Get oxidized in the lemon and salt of mundanity
No concern for the formality of meter and iamb
And thus blooms out the filigree of feelings
Beautiful Sylvia Plath effect revealing
They invite us to the mirror
Of our reality of current disintegration
Reeking of brutality and volcanity
Collapsing rhythm joyously spells fatality
And cheerfully grows an inanity of mentality
Eating into our diamonds of morality
You often say you will return and love
Are you afraid of the expanding emptiness
And the vitality-sapping black holes?
We do not know why profanity is considered a value
We do not know where our brutal rooms lead to
We only see green leaves dropping dead every day

Within the humanity and inhabitants of Earth
there is an great diversity of human kind . . .
I have met people full of urbanity with polished manners
formally is their official status-
there are many who use their morality and ethics
knowing the difference between good and evil, right and wrong
to help others, they seem able to grasp the reality of any situation
lots of people have great ideas and mentally think good thoughts
that energy and vitality is like a seed that grows
But I have met people unbalanced, deranged and suffering
from insanity it seems, using vulgar words and profanity
there are full of volcanity ready to erupt like a volcano . . .
Have you ever met someone mindless, inanity is their name
they just lack ideas and their everyday life is mundanity
Oh then are those full of fatality, doom and gloom . . .
But the worse people that I avoid are those who
are violent, savage, full of brutality toward all mankind.

A victim of society's profanity
Trying to fit in with urbanity
Bigger, fancier, who thought of this insanity
Commercials full of inanity
Working night and day fatality
Need more money false reality
Corporations destroy vitality
Hate my job brutality
Be honest with myself morality
Get away from deadly formality
No more a puppet of other's mentality
Who want my soul full of mundanity
My spirit rise high in volcanity
Do only what brings passion humanity

In fake urbanity, somewhere we lost our humanity,
Respect and care for others, is turning to a formality,
In reality, we are being trounced by the mundanity,
Our morality is now diminishing; it bears no vitality.
Profanity pooled with inanity will lead us to insanity,
Crippling societies, are swarmed with toxic mentality,
Where sick minds attack innocent, causing fatality.
Let’s rise, and save world from the hands of brutality,
And steer the thoughts of youth away from volcanity,
In fake urbanity, why did we lose our humanity?

Why have we ran from morality
By living in such brutality
We’ve lost touch with our humanity
And soon we will lose our vitality
By embracing a hateful mentality
Living like this is a definite fatality
Our lifestyles have become a mundanity
No longer a positive force in our urbanity
And that alone is not a formality
We’re wayward souls, and that's a reality
Our words are often vile profanity
The things we say are inanity,
And the end result we always be a volcanity
Not to mention living this way is pure insanity

God is the Lord of all humanity,
And the reason for our vitality;
When we ignore Him, there's insanity,
Volcanity, lack of morality,
Senseless brutality, profanity,
That leads mankind towards fatality;
Today, we're lacking in urbanity,
Because of no open mentality.
To trust in riches is inanity.
Believing Christ needs no formality,
He's the Way to heav'n, not mundanity,
Accept it or not, that's reality.

Modern Days
We live with the brutality of human kind,
a reality that calls for a hand divine.
This violent nature of mentality is strange,
a volcanity of actions with inanity of change.
There’s a new wave morality on the rise,
needing not the formality of legal ties.
Yet buried by a mundanity of human thought,
in the panic of urbanity, we are caught.
Vitality must infuse the poet’s mind,
or our dreams face fatality over time
Insanity’s profanity is worldwide dread.
May a fire of humanity quickly spread.

A Bore’s Soliquy
Mundanity is a world I’ve come to know
And Inanity is the lifestyle I’ve come to show
For Reality is a demon I try to evade
My Mentality has kept me in the shade
The need for Vitality is what I need
A new Volcanity on which to feed
Adding Brutality to create a new scene
To the point of Insanity to alter my mien
but a chap from Urbanity I’ve been raised to be
The Fatality of my norm, I certainly see
My lack of Profanity before my God
As well as my Morality, I’m forced to abide
Doomed to a Formality I cannot hide

What struck me was your urbanity… which I now see as social profanity.
Our first meeting you filled the room with intellectual vitality
You carried on about substance and morality
You had such a distinct alluring mentality
and you dressed yourself in a triumphant formality
I honestly thought you were the heart of shining humanity
which has made my recent clutch on reality
a crushing blow of brutality
…you are really just ..Self-involved Inanity!
Your charisma is in fact mundanity
You words now spew like vile volcanity
You are a warped melon ball..... of insanity!
and if I did not so fear the worst of worst karmic calamity
I would gladly help you meet…a sudden and quite comical
fatality
