POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
A message to my generation:
Awake my brothers! Be not enticed by meager vices!
Betrothed to the trough while writing off your Father's sacrifices
You faintly feign fruition, feeding off the furtive fiction
Finding feeble feral fiends and fiercely forcing fertile friction
Fretting frequently, obsequious to opiate afflictions
Living hand to mouth while handing out your "Hand-me-down" convictions
Your hollow eyes search hallowed skies for haloed hues of hope
I pray thee break thine shackles! Slip the noose from 'round your throat
Betrothed to the trough while writing off your Father's sacrifices
You faintly feign fruition, feeding off the furtive fiction
Finding feeble feral fiends and fiercely forcing fertile friction
Fretting frequently, obsequious to opiate afflictions
Living hand to mouth while handing out your "Hand-me-down" convictions
Your hollow eyes search hallowed skies for haloed hues of hope
I pray thee break thine shackles! Slip the noose from 'round your throat

Cannibalistic Linguistics Left Us Hungry For Thought
You’ve always addressed to impress with your silly-putty passion sense
Outwardly courageous as you appear, your fear is immense
Unified through distress and anguish, you lead the feeble toward social immersion
A closet renegade with visions of mutiny, in fear of scrutiny you’ve settled for the Tom Petty version of perversion
Realism has come to be the only “-ism” that isn’t
Endlessly we defend the bias, deny the papyrus, and embrace the transparently cataclysmic
As unnerving as this revelation may appear, you’ll still beseech the leech for sustenance ...

Complicated Cerebral Cesspool
Tainting the water with the question, confusion ensues
Psyche projected in UHF while you're fiending for views
Every extremists actions panhandle for flashes from Canons
Obsession in a deathgrip with aequitas; while hate is tossed, faith is abandoned
Causing tremors beneath the keys every time I type a tempest
You run your fingers beneath my lines counting caps like a dentist
An addict to fame plagerizing my verb and adjective game
I birthed the style you've used for your Counterfeit fad-lib fame
While the mediums mention malevolent messages manufactured to...

Burning with the inner flame, unquenchable and hence its name is unreachable
The beast shares its name with the idol, bi-polar is the solar order making the goal lowered for the feeble
I feign one way and the other praying for the sacrifice to make me whole
Living on the prayer I made to every hardened soul
Killing in the name of gospel made me another carbon copy
Redundant information proclaimed from the 3 ½” floppy.
Programmed from birth to strive for girth and every different size
Measurement and angle, extenuate the legs, the buns, and thighs
Flames are...

The Pledge of All Legions
You play the victim and I'm the assailant, right?
Every wrong turn seems right; you're veritas is understood through your oversight
Your current has might, yet the tide tonight is slipping to and fro
Your beach front foundation breeds inert damnation as it dissolves in the undertow
You've eclipsed the clips of your lips on my throne
Claming paisley rags of rebellion only insured your position as drone
You're mindless expectoration only merits fascination from every other dime-a-dozen clone
You stand limp and frail, your smile wilts, that facade you've built in...

Queen's Reich
Swiftly I carve and depict your depravity into the walls surrounding rationality
I’m the architect of your life, I carved every milestone, and custom tailored your affliction for brutality
A risqué ad away from being the flavor of the day, a common Scarlet to the Letter with a PG-13 burlesque mentality
You’ve used, abused, confused and eluded, you’re a humanufactured malady.
I’ll deface your conceptual thoughts of greatness and replace each one with timidity
Your clique made accordingly exclusive, only those who submit your “interest-free” pity fee
