Lost City of Rucker

polish outside
royce, he hide a boy, called him sunshine

he so starch on the collar
he don't appreciate the cloth
till the potato off it again


stingiest thing ever, hold langstons typewriter
ima go shuffle it again for yu ryan, danial, ward the spirit
pop lost the address,
in his toe winkle, he had it

how this the rhyme?
the partner upstairs
cant see me
i do it this un?

the girls the stowaway fortune
beneath the slavery laws?
its the first time california girl not a bikini
girls, the womens rights is 60 year old league of dont care

Hybrid babble tap it chan
Jackie!
Jackie?

The Bankers of Terror

The heart of fundamentalism beats in desert sands 

pumping hate and cash through veins to limbs in many lands,

bringing life and means to hands who long for fire and chains,

a lust for killing stories till a single narrative remains 

 

A country built on gold as black as the deeds that it enables,

where womens rights are just a dream, and the human kind a fable,

of rampant migrant slavery built on economic exploitation,

the keepers of the Ka’aba and the narrowest interpretation   

 

No brotherhood of faith when disagreement draws fresh blood

and when the blade argues over the tongue you’re soon lost in the flood

of bitter retribution, of revenge on faceless foes,

of targets drawn through worship and a rift that will not close     

 

Funding bombs and beheadings to further divide and separate,

a xenophobic attitude of difference viewed through hate,

of pious pawns and dreams of Caliphates on bloodstained squares

whilst the innocent are slaughtered and Muhammad’s ghost despairs
