whole in one

walking around on

neatly manicured golf courses

human blood

seeping up

through the soles

of your shoes.

imagine

choosing a lifeline among the deadlines;)

Backfiring cataclysm

_
_
sometimes it feels like we're standing under

an emerging understanding

of a united state of emergency

in these states we're urgently

feeling like we'd like to emerge and see

clearly the perceived public relation participation

in idea dissemination

conforming news publications

and media station corporations

broadcasting divisions

between them and US


switch off that television

why be told when we all can tell OUR vision

let's prioritise informed decisions

put uninformed patriotism under revision

because it seems like we're assumed to all conform to being given

mass-produced ideology to consume

bored-sounding broadcasters laying down their lies

unchallengingly accepting their salary to

get kids aspiring

to be laying down their lives

for a backfiring

cataclysm marketed as neoliberalism

given the complex context that's arisen

the perspective of the poet's collective

would feel justified in unanimously declaring

a war on errorism

because we're tired of standing by

while multiple bystanders

residing beside identified

strategic resources are indiscriminately taken aside

and

militarily assisted in crossing the great divide

democratically liberated

with bits of mortar inside

alongside one-sided media stories

avoiding avoidable child-death tragedies (devoid of human dignity) and gory

details

to instead focus on fireworks, flags, glory

and a void of consumer retail


developed world media is beginning to feel like history on repeat

we're hearing rumours that critical consumers are reaching for delete

perusing the ruse of one-sided propaganda views

masquerading as objective news

is becoming boring


several years putting up with deliberate global military errorism

and the only weapons of mass distraction

we're seeing from our living rooms

are our televisions

dead leaves = compost

idea constructs fallin like the Berlin wall in.. '89,

aftershocks of 2009 subprimes,

satirical dead idea purging

visible structural cracks emerging

trying to track new dreamlines surging

of the still undefined,

you bet exciting times to be, still.

writing rhymes :)

trademarked deity

The institutionalised church

was a real estate corporation

copyrighting GOD as a three letter brandname,

patenting paradise and selling shares in salvation..

did the CEO pope not choke when he spoke

strategic plans to monopolise the universe?

Similar to Coke suddenly deciding they're

not into monetizing sugar water

they're selling happiness..

My landscape speaks to me in mysterious ways. .

you say your book speaks to you, white man?

your book is part of my landscape;

perhaps my landscape has been speaking to you?

Put that paper on the compost heap,

let the earthworms do God's work.

By mistaking books for reality

you've been desecrating the mountains and rivers

of my holy bible for 2000 years.

Fly the dollar bill at half mast.

You lied to us about father christmas.

How can you get white-bearded elders as sales reps

to sell caffeine to kids? We trusted you.

Your world leaders told grieving mothers to shop.

Your economists encourage divorce

because broken homes boost GDP:

Single parents paying off single houses,

competing with each other at Christmas time.

You've become a bad dream.

The world is waking up.

sex with Bob Dylan

communication is touching and being touched.

through sound.

through colour and form.

through time.

it is giving your experience to someone else to hold.

to affirm your experience as real.
