Inject the neglect

My current predicament was inevitably imminent,

I was feeling ambivalent to the equivalent of being different.

My soul was dissonant, as my heart rose in increments, keep listening as I implement my diligent views of insolence.

My anticipant nature is munificent. Despite mental imprisonment I can still use my ligaments to bring figment to fiction as is my intent.

I tend to forget as I accept the defects.

The impress drops then we select to reflect and regret it when it’s wrecked.

What did we expect when we took to inject the neglect?

Still we are subject to the cause and effect of the next suspect.

I can’t exploit the context so it simply objects to the direct disrespect of circumspect...

but what the heck, by the time you process on my concept you’ll put it down to nonsense as let’s be honest : there’s plenty of content to resent and the reason for your torment is so frequently mentioned to me, when you could have prevented discontent by supplementing a little consent.

love letter
I'm a sucker for love, as I'm sure many of us are, whether we want to admit it or not. Write a love letter to anyone- maybe someone you've loved for a long time, or even someone you've never met. Make it as serious or informal as you want- whoever makes my heart melt the most wins.

The Start of Something

Without really knowing we started this thing together,

as I got to know you I wanted you in my life forever,

If life was just a moment I’d wanna spend it with you,

if the world was against us it would be them versus two,

you see the world so different to everybody else,

I couldn’t believe I found someone so like myself,

we don’t agree on everything but I love to hear your opinion,

you know mines is a world away from other women,

if you could see what I see and watch you loving me,

knowing you feel what I feel to the full degree,

You treat me like I’m the Queen of the universe,

Like every single word I say is another gospel verse,

when we talk about life with no boundaries and no limits,

and how we’re both ready for it to begin at any minute,

You don’t just make me better you inspire me to write,

The feelings and the words flow together every night,

you make anything seem possible with you by my side,

there’s nothing wouldn’t give up for this, not even my life.

Government Issued Recovery

It’s easy enough to say to get a grip

but you don’t know what it’s like to slip

after three months or after six

of keeping up my act

when the world around me starts to collapse

and I know that I’m grown

and I know I have to control how I react

but it doesn’t make a difference from the front to the back

or if I’m at the bottom this

kinda thing is considered common

and as long as we follow the lawmen

we aren’t considered a problem till you look at statistics

and suddenly life doesn’t look so optimistic

but the government is so monopolistic

we will never be able to rid this world of government issued recovery

take all these drugs we say you need and feel all bubbly

till you feel good and cuddly but the next day you feel ugly

so take another three

or four until you cease to feel

dunno the difference between what is real and what’s designed to make you kneel

Maybe the fundament of governance

is enough coverage

to further the discovering

of new treatments for your illness

but is it enough to stop the suffering

of the victims

as it’s mostly seen in those with low incomes

regularly picking up their prescriptions

for the aforementioned symptoms

and I don’t think back when there was Egyptians

when they were hammering inscriptions that

they had to worry about monthly subscriptions

and figuring out how to work the system

Where every third person has to cover up their courage

because the way that they recover wasn’t with a controlled substance

and they call it abuse if they only knew what you go through to get rid of the blues

and what do they do recommend a zoloft or two

but side effects

include an increase in nervousness

which brings you full circle to the reason for your unrest

and life continues even though your purposeless

Cruel is the criminal that can’t be caught

unjust is the law that can be bought

what does that say about our leaders

and the ones supposed to be our healers

when we have to rely on the dealers

to provide the correct drugs sought

see we’re allowed to know a little bit not a lot

start asking too much they’ll take a crack shot

start calling you a crack pot

and refer to your incessant need for reefer

as the reason for you being a believer

when it’s just a stress reliever

yet the drugs they want you on have a positive review on giving you a better view and perspective

with a legally administered pill you can be connected

to the matrix and

continue your objective regardless

of your selective profession

Valium has shown to be effective

and it don’t gotta be perfect yet

it has to get them out of bed

and inside the outside of their head

To France

With a world full of f*ckery and disgrace

where promises vanish without a trace

and where lies are told straight to our face

yet we’re all still expected to take part in the race

not enough woken to realise

don’t fret just yet once they open their eyes

guess who it is they will despise when their government provides no compromise

With ❤️ from Scotland

Excuse Ma Scottish

Aw ma life av heard grown people curse,

They’d always say “yer grannies the wurst”,

you can try n wash ma mouth out but as al tell,

even wae soap in there al give ye hell,

the thing is wur Scottish, the bairns are tae,

an even though we’re surely taught no tae say,

for emphasis, emotions an feelins raw,

swearin pretty much covers it aw,

a don’t mean it as a sign ae disrespect,

a just get a bit excited an a tend to forget,

that swearin an cursin is a mouth full a muck,

the only thing is a don’t give a f...

You & Me

You and me

In our simplicity

Even though

We said explicitly

There would be

No complicity

It happened

Rather efficiently

It wasn’t

Deliberately

Try deny

The electricity

When it’s

Quite literally

Extremely

Persistently

When you’re in

My vicinity

I try politely

To decrease our

proximity

Till I

Sufficiently

Reduce the

Conductivity

Politician Repetition

My mission

to improve the cognition

of the opposition

with my rendition

sparks the ignition

for those to examine the conditions

which public servants such as politicians

actually live in

and compare it to the position

we’re in and in addition

remember they aren’t magicians

not everything they say comes to fruition

but these people don’t need to audition

for the role only their ambition

keeps us on the road to perdition

yet they’d prosecute for sedition

and probably call this ammunition

instead they’d have us make an omission

rather we lived in our partitions

as still this seems to be a war of attrition

we have been thrust in without our permission

we did not make this decision

yet have no choice but to accept submission

still full of doubts and suspicion

because the last coalition

failed the most vulnerable of our composition

and our premonitions

are predicting repetition!
