Utopial Searching
**********************************************&
Stepping outside national boundaries
looking toward elemental scenes
new localities attest
strength
wisdom, and...
~no national boundaries~
Day one: global quasi-utopian peace
gang banged HARD-CORE
each thrust cried ~ screamed ~ assailed ears
=sum
(YANK-go home
YANK! GO HOME!
Yank...Go...HOME)
Permeating propagandized, unveiled, soliquialite agendas
have eaten my nations' flesh to bone
Hard-earned revenues soak lean
via absorption's infrastructural IV called: assistance
Interlaced prejudices sputter false hopes
with hatred's universal heart:
___________
*********
>Lick
fingers
clean<
___________
*********
>wipe
satisfied
lips<
___________
*********
>in
resolute
dissatisfaction<
___________
*********
Croaking euphemisms like spatter at
my nation's wounds with smiles
Reflecting safely within national heritage
lines drawn square for sad round pegged humanities
Firm stance in defense
staying this good ship's course
Day two: Continuing voyage to abyss
stepping outside boundaries imagined then accepted.

Warrior PPK
~<: >~<: >~<: >~
the preoccupation with death and dying
is boring to me...
as if the loss of life in and of itself
would be that cry...
in the wilderness of living, it is numbing
all the consequences of beauty vs age
and the illicitness...
of an act we call love, yet you cant love
like a worn-tubed...
adage of the maladjusted, why is this?
i watched a movie on Patton once
he was a soldier...
tattered and thread worn, with scars
in places no one...
has but war heroes, my scars are like
that. california had scarless people
with skin tanned...
no scars to share and i realized the
fact that there's
a history here in my land of scars
compared at dinner...
like badges to the masses, and i
just thought you must have your own.
in cities people are hard and endless
they believe taunts...
and seclusional conjecture will ward
off the evil...
but it exists as light exists and like
they said once...
in a little movie, man we are those people

Writ.ng
~<: >~<: >~<: >~
wrote about myself once
re-read it years later
a pretentious piece
should've been edited
that girl
somewhere inside me
while i may not like her now
i still love her
'poor thing'
