When social media, news, local and international, and even people you meet in person want to downplay human rights protests or not cover it at all.
When they want to quiet us, all of us, over lives lost and rights stripped away.
When the police, the government, the media, the news, everything is against us.
When they want to turn us against one another, dividing us so we can't fight back.
When issues like Ferguson, Eric Garner and police brutality are mocked and made light of.
That's when this is no longer my America.
That's when the youth need to get angry.
We've been betrayed and lied to over and over.
When will we all come together?
Young & old, male & female, black & white. Fight back for this country. Make it ours again.
Make it our America, or it's lost forever.
Maybe this is naive, or lame, but I don't care. When will we all wake up and take back our America?

Lightbulb
How many times do you have to
screw with my head
around like
an electric socket that goes to a lightbulb until it goes dead
from so much exhaustion of always having to"stay on"
for a faulty parallel circuit that just gives in
to the slightest trigger that touches its brim
copper wires wrapped around power that is trying to glow
Why are you hiding me in a restrictive shallow sheath skin
when I'm trying to grow
all I want is to feel complete in a formation
that travels like traffic, paving a way
for my electrons to scurry like the information I have to retain
that shock me in the brain
that mold ideas and thoughts that
awfully hurt me
Literature
Left Alone
I Try to stay hidden
Hopping that you never find me
Hopping that you'll leave me alone
But you wont
You find me now matter where I go
And you never leave me alone
What will it take to get you to go away?
I just want to be left alone
Is that to much to ask….?

Metus
One flat night, the wind stilled itself like a breath held in the worst kind of anticipation; the moment when you realize, too late, that everything has gone wrong with every carefully laid plan. Every alibi come to naught in the face of something far too dark to even be given shape: gloried in the feverish tongues of those men who spread their crazed scripture to those who pass beneath their perches just out of reach.
Fear.
The word dances across the lips of the multitudes, washing away serenity and sense, slathering a coat of ashen sludge across our hearts and burrowing into the mind like some virulent maggot, squirming for that last litt

Just my reaction to recent events. I haven't posted in a while, sorry 'bout that.
