Why Do We Have An Open Mic?
Because society has us zipping along on our heels
From one sale to the next, until we finally keel over
With our tongues slack from our mouths,
And our ever clutching fingers
In an unhealthy confidence with
Credit cards, and I-phones...
Like the old west gunslingers
Or a prohibition rumrunner
Who's been shot down where he stands...
....This is why we have an Open Mic.
Because there use to be a place you could talk to people!...
Because you have to be homeless,
Or a dog tied up to a tree to see the world
Like it really is,
Or else your just going through the motions...
Cooking up some half-crazed notion
From the outside looking in...
It's a game of sink or swim...
And no one here gets out alive...
...This is why we have an Open Mic.
Because Poetry is our last defense...
Because Palestinians are being shot in the face
While we decide which pose to take
In the ever growing comedic nightmare
Which is our U.S. Head of State...
It's like America's Funniest Home Videos
On tranqs, because everyone's too scared
To react, or has forgotten how to...
As we tumble down the cracks, and haunted halls...
We must decide which rock to cling to,
Because there is no turning back...
...This is why we have an Open Mic.
So raise all voices high!...
Speak your truths!...
Draw down the energies
From the harvest moon,
As that great Blood Moon casts
Her shadow on our backs...
And the lies that we've been steeped in
Will surely make us ill
If we stand still...
Don't let controllers in...
We must ignite!...
...This is why we have an Open Mic!...

Death Is Our Only Option
There is no real religion.
If you're in-tune, check your spiritism.
There are no real Christians.
Only Christmas manscaped from July.
Divide the people by bullshit, then you divide the pie.
So opinionated, so offensive, so abrasive.
It's all love and smiles until even the smallest
Disagreement.
I write to back you into a corner of thinking.
When could you ever take the Bible and twist it?
Even in my dreams, you all die, and by all, I mean all,
Myself included.
The world ended long ago, we're just here held
Hostage by a big thumb on the detonator.
There's facts, then there's narratives, and no one
Wants to listen, but everybody wants to be heard.
I just sit back and observe.
One shot to domestic violence.
One shot to gang violence.
One shot to police brutality and as long
As it's not any one of yours, you won't complain about it
One child dead.
Another one raped, forced to have a baby.
One woman can't even walk to her car because she
Don't feel safe.
One hero who paved the way for peace
Is a hero assassinated.
I've been studying the Bible for years.
But I keep failing tests,
So I still haven't graduated.
Because I don't understand how all these years later
We continue to fight over something as stupid
As hues. Let me phone in.
I need Blue to drop me a clue.
My answer is and always will be death.
As you know, none of you will ever change your ways,
And no matter who doesn't like it,
We are all the problem in some way.
Teeth
I held onto you by my teeth.
Enamel tearing, bone chipping.
My friends stare in horror at the blood pouring from my maw,
wounds from a year ago that barely started to scar biting back.
I stand in the pool of it, shaking.
They tell me the wrong you did to me.
The wrong you continue to do.
The wrong my body was aware of when id flinch and bow like a beaten dog away
from joking flailing hands.
The way I would submit to anything you asked of me so I cant even use it against you,
because I let you treat me that way.
Yet around your body in my jaw, I shake my head profusely.
You wouldn't. You couldn't.
You would rejoice in my anguish. Flourish in my floundering. Barely blink at my distraught.
Jokes like barb wire left your lips saccharinely sweet with a smile, so I barely felt the honeyed prongs of metal in my skin.
Until you kept digging. The wounds kept bleeding. The honey was diluted by my pain,
until it was all I could taste.
Losing you was painful. I see you every day, and yet I don’t know you. You look at me with hatred. I look at you like I never knew you.
It’s Always Darkest Before Dawn
Psychological layers of thought
Run through obsidian nights
As colloquial phrases
Of inconsistent truths
Unknowingly sow disaster
Only to reap chaos
While death’s flower blooms
Sweating unmitigated hatred
Yet from the smothering
Dark clouds of dismay
The sun bursts forth
Refusing to relinquish
The light of goodness
Consuming malignancy
Preparing the way
For the resurrection
Of pure light
The left handed adjustable monkey wrench...
(for not dominant with right hand
also known as southpaw and lefty,
as well as the more formal terms
sinistral and sinistromanual and another term,
particularly in Australian English,
hashtagged as mollydooker)
linkedin by various other names
as illustrated in the following fabrication,
which exceptionally well drawn illustrations
and instructions written in French,
thus necessitating a bi-lingual technician,
hook hood interpret the material
ideally an English literature major
top notch knowing grammar,
punctuation, spelling, et cetera
unintentionally impressing
madding crowd sitting on a bench,
who seem more fascinated by the logophile
a lover of words or a linguaphile
a lover of languages
who goes on a spontaneous ejaculation
delineating the history
of those twenty six lettered symbols
allowing, enabling, and providing
a crash (test dummy) course
to the transfixed listeners
totally (tubular) regarding their original intent
for initial inquiry
about the left handed
monkey wrench explanation to quench.
Said multi-dubbed easy to assemble a drone wannabe, not only a handy dandy blues clues all in one light-weight contraption (available at Hooper's Store on Sesame Street) to handle any job (mostly those requiring physical labor, but also very helpful as a defense against weapons of mass destruction - by enveloping the user within a radio active proof bubble after he or she presses a button, but mindful about opening any windows in close proximity lest the message "Abort, Retry, Fail?") appears and ceases up the gizmo, and of course only a child (just out of swaddling clothes), which an anonymous lad or lass could troubleshoot aforementioned widget with eyes wide shut and hands tied behind their back. Matter of fact child labor laws rescinded to keep abreast of said revolutionary technological enhancements visited upon the left handed monkey wrench, which matter of fact witnessed unforeseen initial applications such as transmitting via electronic signals wirelessly courtesy wisdom (versus blue) tooth taken from anonymous benefactors.
A recent dental discovery brought to light (figuratively) that said wisdom tooth made up of four primary components: the outer enamel, the underlying dentin, the inner pulp (containing nerves and blood vessels), and the cementum that covers the tooth's root, which layers the same as any other tooth, with the enamel forming the hardest substance on the tooth's surface, the dentin making up the bulk of the tooth's structure, and the pulp providing nourishment and sensation, when some severely introverted boy experienced an aha moment and realized (while playing dentist without anesthesia, and extracting hindmost molars - previously loosened, (and practically dangling like a modifier) by a sucker punch to the mouth of a bully, who got knocked out (Hawaiian punch swiftly tailored harried styled) cold play kisser.
The dual rooted wisdom tooth served as a miniature model to expand on the essential principle of the general monkey wrench, which occurred to a scapegoated ego bruised super smart grade schooler while he remained standing up like another brick in the wall until the (hells) bell went off indicating recess came to a close, yet not before unnamed youngster sketched out a remarkable rendition of this tool while monkeying around with various and sundry drawing examples until he hit upon (again figuratively) while quietly observing and witnessed an aggressive wren (cause said curious little fella a self taught ornithophile) wrenching loose a passive resistant worm.
Infinity Of Hatred
It's funny til it's happening to you.
Figured we'd be all dead before
Humans catch a clue.
I bleed the same as you, but the hatred
That my suffering has bred may have
Drowned out the last shred of
Humanity i had within me.
The rest lay within the confines of the
Bible, which conveniently sits right next to
A rifle with bullet casings that has names
Etched into the shell.
When we are all slaves to an economy
Ran by the idolatry of men who feed you lies,
Take and hide your plate to slide you
Crumbs just so you feel like they
Are the reason you ate.
Surrounded by automatic machines
And android assistants.
When the job market consists of
Performing maintenance on your replacement.
Because as technology grows,
The humans become more unwise
As the day goes.
We cannot get along.
I used to think that we were smart enough to see
Through the bullshit that is spread through
The media, the religion, and the politricks..
Sadly, I'm afraid, we've lost the war
And we are all at our weakest at our core.
Get me off of this planet.
Never worship any man who isn't the Savior.
And yet here we are with posters and
Lasers to pinpoint something to virtue
Signal about.
Because let's be honest, everything you
Content creators do is for clout.
I'm exhausted with everyone and everything.
Because even as grown beings
You haven't figured out that we can have
Different opinions, but not be hateful.
If a blue crayon hated a red one, just
Because of a different hue.
Then, school supplies for your kids would
Be that much expensive.
For it's the dumbest thing to buy two boxes
Of crayons, just because one color
Doesn't like the way the other one looks,
So it's impossible for them to be
Packaged inside the same box,
Even though they serve the same purpose.
If you are too blinded to see this all
Asinine, then perhaps we should be begging
For God to burn this bitch down.

Construction of Twin Towers began
with groundbreaking ceremony
on August 5, 1966,
but the towers themselves
witnessed vertical construction in 1968 and 1969,
with the North Tower
topping out in December 1970
and the South Tower in July 1971
subsequently The World Trade Center complex,
including the Twin Towers,
officially opened for business on April 4, 1973
and located in Lower Manhattan, New York City
immediately demarcated a distinct silhouette
defined the core of The Big Apple
with an august centerpiece
of the World Trade Center (WTC)
situated in the Financial District
near the Hudson River,
the complex occupied a 16-acre site
and graced the land that never slept
after September eleventh
two thousand and one,
where the spirits haunt,
especially on anniversary
that marked the deaths of 2,996 people,
including 19 hijackers
who committed suicide.
Once scheme decided upon
to blow to smithereens
said iconic complex edifice landmarks
(id est twin towers)
got sited within figurative cross hairs
after being chosen as ground zero targets
and after surreptitious perpetrators
honed specific details
of appalling terrorist attack
regarding when to pull off
what would turn out to be
the deadliest foreign attack on U.S. soil,
exceeding Japan's surprise attack
on Pearl Harbor in Honolulu, Hawaii,
on December 7, 1941,
which killed 2,335 members
of the United States Armed Forces and 68 civilians,
whereby death knells tolled
for either sacrifice of countless lives,
even on anniversary number xxiv of former
of abominable debacle
The Twin Towers apocalyptic tragedy
crowded out every vestige of living social
for days, weeks, and months.
I happened to be housed upstairs
sequestered within the bedroom
designated for me after our (Harris) family
moved into the house
at 324 (formerly R.D. #2) at Level Road
on February 28th,1968.
After returning from her outing
mother, (who would succumb
to ovarian/uterine cancer
about forty four months later)
came sprinting thru the front door
like a bat out of hell
shouting to turn on the television
every channel broadcasting
the fiery maelstrom
watching helplessly as flames
engulfed the like a towering inferno
after two airplanes flew
into the Twin Towers
as part of the September 11 attacks
on the morning of September 11, 2001,
whereby American Airlines Flight 11
struck the North Tower,
and United Airlines Flight 175
struck the South Tower,
leading to the eventual collapse of both buildings.
Television viewers like me
kept eyes glued to the tube,
and watched in horror
attuned to the pandemonium,
a worse fate than death cab for cutie
while mayhem reigned supreme
fueling absolute zero escape
as the vast majority of people
panicked, yet perhaps
in feeble attempt to family and/or friend
with one final telephone call
to said loved ones
choking back tears
before they sought desperation measures
such as jumping out the windows
from the upper stories,
and plummeted to their immediate deaths
versus being roasted alive.
Round the clock coverage occurred,
and aside from the impossible mission
to keep the nation updated
since tragedy writ large
and so much dramatic activity occurred
any spare moment availed
an announcer to offer tidbits
such as the following:
The Twin Towers stood 110 stories tall,
with the North Tower (1 WTC)
standing at 1,368 feet
and the South Tower (2 WTC) at 1,362 feet,
but the North Tower's height increased
to 1,730 feet when a large antenna
added to roof in 1978,
but this being a nonstructural addition
not officially counted
as part of the building's height.
Ink
I hear short tales, where you are nothing good and far from impressive and all imposing.
I try and see you diplomatically. But unfortunately, I feel you.
I feel your ache. The bruise ever-pressed. The expectations failed. The stale shock of chilled wine dripping into the dip of your shirt. The want for bleeding passion and settle for dry stability.
I stare. I can't help it. I want to know everything, but there is very little I can ask in the cage I am unsure how to free us from.
Your mouth raises on the opposite of mine dominantly. You scan like you're waiting for a threat that won't manifest but you'll cruelly deny looking for if it's acknowledged. Your hands are calloused from weight lifting and you hold a pencil funny, and with every trait, you become dominating in my mind.
I won't rewrite my story to fit you, nor will I try and force you to want my narrative. But you don't move away when I press against you, and you look a beat too long when you don't think I can see, and I think maybe you'd be happy to read the words your name constitutes.
You are not penciled into my life, you are the only thing that's written in ink.
