about
“To say ‘I accept’ in an age like our own is to say that you accept concentration camps, rubber truncheons. Hitler, Stalin, bombs, airplanes, tinned food, machine guns, putsches, purges, slogans, Bedaux belts, gas masks, submarines, spies, provocateurs, press censorship, secret prisons, aspirins, Hollywood films, and political murders.”
-‘Inside the Whale’ by George Orwell. 1940

Nothing lasts
-----------------
Further till nothing lasts,
Inside an electric cool aid acid bath.
It's a deep cut:
The brooding envy of the blue collared mutts.
So throw your pearls at cops.
Throw your petals right in front of me.
Because you are candy for these wired eyes
and when we coalesce, we create a beautiful symphony.
I always cave,
Every Time you smile
Look away
For miles and miles
Keep the wolves in the bay.
Keep the loose lips sunk with the ships.
A kiss of Clorox and alchemy
Mind over matter and monogamy.
The pirate ship is in the harbor.
A pauper prince and I'm shellacked in spoils,
A heart of gold with a Midas touch.
'But you always did care that you we're never quite good enough."
You want to know what love means to mean to me?
Cigarette burns in 3rd degree.
A facsimile smile on a widow’s peak.
To chase the rainbow is to pen your fate.
Accept the whale
Accept defeat
Alive in the behemoth
You're still just meat
Hey Kings, bear witness
Your riches brings madness
