Poetry

This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

  • Cool let’s write something

    I’m barely conscious and on the bus why not

    Speaking of buses

    Ever been thrown by one?

    Apparently the cane isn’t a big enough indicator that I need to sit before the bus fires off from the stop

    No I don’t think even wearing a huge sign saying

    Severely Disabled

    Would even make these people think twice

    When you’re disabled the bus suddenly becomes this huge anxiety

    Will they kneel the bus for me?

    Will I get a seat?

    People seldom move from disabled seating unless it’s a wheelchair, walker, or stroller/pram/buggy whatever

    My entire method of transportation has become this daily battle

    It’s just exhausting leaving the house

    Never knowing what I’ll face

    And the added Jesus Christian thing

    God I’m so sick of them forcing their religion on to me

    Painfully unselfaware they are

    Today I was told Jesus has big plans for my life

    Sir the fact that you’re telling me that tells me you’re not speaking to any Jesus in that head of yours

    He asked if I know god

    I know I don’t want to know your god

    I wish your god had stayed shut up and never cursed this planet with your religion

    Just atrocities carried out over millennia

    Just wish they’d all cease to exist

    And I have to be in their space because I have to take the bus

    Ah but think how many fewer poems I’d write

    Yeah exactly Sara Bareilles, I’m not going to write a love song about these things.

    A+ for the constantly contextually on point music

    Thanks Cosmic DJ.

    I wish there was an alternative to the bus even if my poem output would suffer

    I’d rather stay isolated indoors than be bombarded by Christianity everywhere

    And I’d rather do anything than have to constantly worry bus drivers are going to care

    Ah life

  • I think my issue with this writer’s strike

    Is not just rich people wanting more money

    It’s that people are on their side

    When I complain about not making enough money

    I’m told to “get a better job”.

    Right?

    It’s not that they don’t deserve fair pay

    It’s that when I ask for bare minimum enough to live on

    I’m sponging off the government

    Shake shake shake and shut your mouth right?

    It’s just hard to see the difference

    Everyone deserves enough to live off of

    And living shouldn’t just come down to shelter, food, electricity

    Living includes enjoyment

    Not mega yacht enjoyment

    Not paying over half the population slave wages to become billionaires enjoyment

    Are humans capable of evil because it’s in their nature?

    Or because society breeds it?

    Because civilization demands it?

    I just wonder what great kindnesses could come from a society that rewards that instead

    Money is just an incentive to be cruel

    Just incentive to try to keep it away from everyone else

    The have mores asking for more is just a symptom of the have it alls having way too fucking much

    Inflation due to money being printed to try to offset the fact the billions of our global capital is sitting

    But thank god they have money right? Bless those billionaires

    Sick of getting by on scraps

    People who actually need personal chefs can’t afford them and people who can fucking learn to cook for themselves have ten.

    People who can’t afford to take care of their disabilities are choosing “compassionate suicide”, but giving us more money is out of the question

    Sick, tired, and hungry all the time. All the time.

  • It’s like your personality is missing

    Stand here, sell this, and make your mark

    That kind of a push like silence for weeks and then suddenly

    When you want our money

    It’s taking part in this tired game kind of disgusting?

    Don’t you want to run away to an inlet up North and just be?

    You turn it on for the cameras and the stage

    But who are you under it all?

    I’d know by now that etchings on the wall only mean so much

    Thoughts prettied up for publish

    Is music even real anymore?

    Is your music still real?

    Your music that I’m perpetually paying for

    Such a weird world we live in

    I just wonder who I’m paying

    I don’t know if it’s okay to love someone like you anymore

    Something about the whole billionaires versus refugees thing really got me thinking.

  • Hey Eternal Flame

    I hope you’re doing okay over there, burning

    Forever, at least my forever

    I’ll be your watcher

    I wonder if this a role passed down from time before me

    If another of my kin sat chatting to the sun all day

    But it just seems like such a lonely living

    Watching

    I wonder if others spare the time of day

    For the time of day?

    Speaking of, it’s setting time

    It’s awful that I have worse days to compare today’s heat to when today’s heat was still too high

    But we both know, no matter how many

    Damn you’re hots

    I utter, that it’s not your fault

    Not really

    If it was your fault the outer atmosphere would be being destroyed

    Yes, this call is coming from inside the house

    Dear Sun

    I hope there’s someone on the other side of the world for you to talk to

    Though I suppose twelve hours in …

    Dude I’m not doing the math to figure out how many hours the sun exists just use your mind palace and imagine it

    Yeah that’s not long to wait I suppose

    My patience and his patience must be vastly different things

    So I suppose you can set and see me tomorrow for me, and in a few hours for you

    Though I suppose “hours” would be relative to whatever you’re revolving around

    Maybe it’s more like minutes

    Space time is wild

    Like time in space

    Anyways goodbye and goodnight sir Sun I’ll see you tomorrow.

  • Are you alive?

    Are you dead..

    Do you know I love you will all my heart

    And I will love you every day

    Until with my last breath I join you in the fields

    Supi and Tiga are there

    My beautiful gems Spinel and Tiger’s Eye

    I know it’s your time to join them Tanzy my beautiful Tanzanite

    I know but it hurts and I wanted so much more time with you

    It’s never enough time

    My baby it was a pleasure to be your home

    It was a pleasure to see you run the herd a little bit too roughly

    My sweet baby

    I will never forget you

  • He did it so nonchalantly

    Like it was second nature

    Just pulled a piece off of the pine tree and then shredded it

    I could immediately smell the scent of pine that I have come to see as a sign of pain

    Like when you cut grass and it screams in scent

    But he just took a piece of her

    And then destroyed it

    And went about his day

    Why are humans like this?

    Why do they destroy so calmly?

    Why are plants not considered alive?

    I can already hear so many wrong people say

    It’s just a tree

    So many so wrong people

    If you could exist without doing harm,

    Would you?

    Or would you keep those little habits that create harm?

    I wish there was a way

    And I am the only one I know who sees everything as alive

    The spirits of everything all around they never see

    Do you ever see?

    I can’t be the only one, simply because it’s statistically unlikely

    I wish I could show them the pain they cause

    Yes, it’s me, ever the malevolent one

    I wish more people understood
