i suggested mending when you asked about weaving.
yet what goes round comes round. i find myself weaving,
at the mill.

how apt.

was i weaving on pegs, the stuff of dreams,
addictive wool gathering storms and whether,
or not, we should make and mend. the old way

From there? Yeah.
When the glint strikes off the reflective eyelids
all that stands before it is a blindspot
don't stand there waiting to answer or be forgiven
run
run for your ******* life

New boss, old boss, hat in the ring toss
old faithful, fate-fool, a hate tool,
pick an eye, either eye, both eyes
going postal is washed-up, going coastal, old hat
new news, comply on layaway, that'll cost the botha youse
goodwill is taxing, vexing, hacking, give your back-reacting-now that-
dot your I's and mind your tightly wound W's
pension for paperwork is not a fair trade, first laugh is free, next charge though, there goes
how you gonna make a mistake, the takeaway you fake the venom to hide the severed head of the snake away
protecting, projecting losses, greenbacks, stacked in backpacks to resurrect an architect like Imhotep to build projects
in daydreams you can feel the sun off them, in real life you can't see them if you break your necks
competitive incompetence, popping off like water balloons with incontinence
does anything in the whole wide world make a lick of ******* sense?

A man told me he knew the secret to being powerful and making threats,
it's not doing anything, letting their imagination run wild while the other person sweats

and he said so you have until I'm done counting down from five... to be out of range
I looked at him, relaxed and at ease, we were in a wide open space with no cover
Only five?
Yeah?
I watched his eyes
From there?
Yeah.

Now I'm A Poetic Man...
Who... DOESN'T Like SLAMS... !!!!!

And I... NEVER Have... !!!!!!

Because EVEN When I Did Them...
I Knew They Were A SHAM... !!!!!

ROBBING Folks Like... GIVENS... !!!!!
Would Seem To Be A GIVEN... !?!

Spoken Word Displays...
For Applause That's FAKE... !!!

APPLAUSE For FRAUDS...
Who... SEEK Awards...

YES Poets CONDITIONED...
For SLAMMING Auditions...
With NO... Simon Cowell... ?!?

But Cats Who ACT FOUL...
CLUCKING To Crowds...
Just Like... Chicken Heads...
Who Are QUICK To Go DOWN... !!!

To Give ***** Some Pleasure...
When They DON'T Have FEATHERS... !?!

FEATHERS In Caps...
That PROVE That They SLAM...
... WITHOUT Using RAP...

To SHOW That They BATTLE...
Like THOSE HERDING CATTLE...
And RAPPERS Who PRATTLE...
Like Babies With RATTLES... !?!

These SLAMMERS COMPETE...
For SHINE That LACKS SHEEN... !?!

Is THIS What They DEEM...
To Be... REAL Artistry... !?!

Writing For Their AUDIENCE... ?
These Spoken Word KEVORKIANS... !!!

YES I Mean JACK To Be EXACT.... !!!

DOCTORS of DEATH...
When They WRITE Poems...
That... EXEMPLIFY...
A SUICIDE... Assisted By...
The Lines They Write And Then RECITE...
As If A SLAM Is... " OPENING NIGHT "...

For Verse That's... TRITE... !!!

While I SLAM EVERY Day...
And... EVERY Night...
When My Mind's Inclined...
To Put Pen To Page...

From The UK To The USA...
I See SO MANY Names...
Who Have EARNED Themselves A Place...
Worthy of... CENTRE STAGE...

While I Just Write Away..........................
Creating Like A Sage.........
Who Has NO TIME For Games...

I Write For... Me...
NOT To Be SEEN... !!!

Because My Verse DOES NOT Concur...
With Being CONDITIONED To WIN Competitions... !!!
What Kind of Poet Writes Words For... EFFECT... ?!?

It Seems To Be SLAMMERS...
Who've Got Some DEFECTS... !!!!!!!

I Wish I Had HAMMERS...
For Some of Their HEADS... !!!

ALWAYS Talkin' Bout' ***... !!!
Within Their Poems...

As If That Will Get Them...
Some Kind of RESPECT... !?!

From Women Now WILLING...
To Give Out Some ***...
To Writers Whose FIRE...
Gets Their... ******* WET... !!!!!

And What's With This FAD...
I Now Hear About SLAMS... ?!?!?

Peoples' ****** PREFERENCES...
... FILLING UP Sentences... ?!?

As If People NEED...
To HEAR Their WET DREAMS...
And... PERVERSE Fantasies... !?!

Now I'm... NOT Homophobic...
But Big Virge Is STRAIGHT... !!!

And Believe Slams Should FOCUS...
On... Social Wordplay...
Rather Than ****** SHOWS...
Under... " POETIC Names "...

MOST Slams Seem To Nurture...
A Show Fit For PURPOSE...
of Some... ****** CIRCUS... !?!

I've Seen Hosts Get NERVOUS...
When Poets Are NERVELESS...
And Speak About Isms'...
BEYOND... Chauvinism...
... INVERTED Sexism...

And Speak On The Visions...
NOW HURTING Our Children... !!!

That's Just... MY Opinion... !!!
So Critics Should LISTEN...
Or READ These Next Words...

DO What You WILL... !!!
To Get Yourselves HEARD...
Or To Get Your Shows FILLED...

But RECOGNISE THIS... !!!
There Are LYRICISTS...
Who Analyse Things...
And Utilise Scripts...

Who DO... " ENTERTAIN "...
Through Wordplay That's STRAIGHT... !!!
And..... ELEVATES Brains..... !!!!!

So IS... " Entertainment "...
The NAME of Slam Games... ?!?

If Your Answer Is YES...
Where Are The FAT Cheques... ???
For... Spoken Word Heads...
Who Focus On ***... ???

Isn't That PROSTITUTION... !?!
of … Poetic Movements... ?!?

I Thought That REAL POETS...
Write Words For A CAUSE... !!!

NOT To Grace Stages...
Like... Lyrical ******... !?!

I'm A SLAMMER Fa' SURE... !!!
Whose Poems FEED MORE...
Than... SLACK Lyricism...
That's... Lyrical ****... !?!

What Are You Folks Thinking... ?!?!?
How About FEEDING Minds …
About OUR DECLINE... !?!

INTO A People Descending To EVIL...
And ATTITUDES... COLDER...
Than Those With EBOLA... !!!!!!

These Slammers FILL Quotas...
Like Apartheid Did... BOTHA'... !!!!!!!

With Methods Devised To Utilise Rhymes...
And Prose That's VERBOSE...
That Leaves Honest Writers...
OUTSIDE of... "Their Fold"...
And …. OUT In THE COLD.... !!!!!!

My Style Is MORE BOLD... !!!!!
And Something... AUTHENTIC... !!!!!!

MOST Slammers I See...
Are Pathetic... Generic...
And Quite EGOCENTRIC... !!!!!

While Me I'm MAJESTIC...
When Using POLEMICS... !!!
To PROVE They're COSMETIC...
And FAR From..................... Poetic.... !!!!!

These Slams Use Time Limits...
As If Peoples'... Thinking...
Should Be... "LIMITED"... !!!

These Slammers Are LUCKY...
My Name ISN'T... " Nucky "... !!!

A THOMPSON Type Wrongun'...
Whose Solutions Cause PROBLEMS... !!!!!

My Words Are A FORCE...
That Aim To Be HIGHER...
Than... ANY Church Spire... !!!

Which is WHY I'm A Man...
Whose Poetry STANDS...
For MORE THAN THESE SHAMS... !!!!!!

That Have Now Become KNOWN...

As A... Poetry...

...... " SLAM "......

It fragments
In ponds
Marginalized oasis
Oiled too you as welling boil
Galactic shatter of sheering visage
Cruton of farther in
Robitussin ruff with shame

Her kilns shanty orchestras
Illiterate men
Pastel abandon
Carpentry services extended university time

La hencha guevarra, no tacito tactics
La rambla ikey, say non y vero
I bien travata

Joan plieta
Ensalada Russia I don wanna botha

To the relish with hate *******

Bom diggity digit it mom

The gully cursed in troubled mimes vieja

Cap wearing residue hiding pool boy

Royce Blue brother need it badge

In your day knockers shaq


Essay #1
Essay
Currency As Evidence
In that allowance of finance exists it is not done so that a business of borrowing can permit one to subvert the process of owning a business.

Example 1 grants are issued for research not profit or finance.

Example 2 liability can never free oneself
That is to say calculation of entrance is also speculation in addition to conducted crime by intent

Misnomer example
A budget in legislation is for staff salary in government.
Not for extension further.
This would send, will and does create the oversight to negate oversight.
Corruption begins in testimony of observation.

Your in Irish towns now
At the bottom thinkers


More from Denmark John's
Standing atop his shoulder as he works ink in

Putting that in, right in there are ya

That's new York?

Swallow that!  Got it!
Get me!

Get me means the guys help now

Denmarks hungry should work better next time.

Leslie, while the "Flat" is away
His partner becomes the coatrack

When returning wardrobe
Prattle has the stage

Dishes are entertaining and neat!


Picture him
Dolling up the bingo girls at the Granada
Night after night

Los Angeles! What doesn't it grab?


The innocent dance!
Ohh!!! I can innocent!!!
14 minutes of

I'm at work
An Italians missing

You hope and I know
His head i leave
Atop s pillars alter be
Travell with us in my friends
She hadn't held me wrong
Till the cause became his wife

Her father wouldn't lend a bog

In a row of tattoos
In a row of tattoos

Genovese couldn't hide in twine
Prattle dens are hardly spry

Begin the wise
Inside I'd ride
Can you carry my lines
Greg did Joe cover us up
In his lilt I found his stay
One golden mourn just as me and you
Posts of dissertation cause insanity to the ill favored minds
Creating messianic worths of french

The discussion is pro voidable by military law in grievance and the forth wall of democracy requires secrecy from profit

Authenticity of a Shakespeare is rare

American Jesus is in Rico act ****** ministrations currently placating amoebi

Scientific evidence exists of history
What say you on the matter?

Id like us to take a moment to back into a saying without interrupt keeping speculation as to wellness of poor people laws which we only continue and rarely adhere by
Selflessness in arrogance is the same
Being paid to indulge yet never the readings of deeper men
