Diplomacy - Persian Cats
I'm not a diplomat
I just lie a lot
I spoke the truth
But had to stop
Persian cats don't meow
They're censored very hard
They look but aren't seen
Their survival is a complex art
Persian cats don't hiss
They send missiles instead
And when they bite into your tuna
They'll bite it through proxy bread
Persian cats are not a monolith
And make no mistake
Simply because a cat is Persian
Does not a Persian cat make
And the Persian Cat sat across from the Israeli Cat,
Feeling he could take to no end
Really they are quite similar
In another world they might've been friends
Winston Loves Big Brother
A poem about 1984
Broken mind, seeing blind
There's not much I haven't left behind
Comrade O'Brian,
I apologize for the traitor I saw in my mind
Hard control by soft means
The leash is just what people need
And should you relent your grip
They'll beg to have it back it seems
-------
In my dream, where I am a man
I love Julia and no other
But as the digit I've become I must admit-
Winston Loves Big Brother
--------
We were always at war with Eurasia
A lengthy and bloody euthanasia
They want to take our unfreedoms, allegedly but incidentally-
We were always at war with East Asia
---------
"Freedom isn't free"
But contented for too long, I can't bother
in shame which long became pride I'll admit-
Winston Loves Big Brother
What is a man but... I would't know
Something which I did long but smother
I am but the symptom of his glory
Winston Loves Big Brother
Reels Fatigue
Im a man of your world brother - Im covered in blood
Im a man of your world sister - my boots are caked in mud
I murdered Issac to show my love of god
I fucked whoever I could and wept, am I still a stud?
Please ask me questions when you film me on the street
Please see my silence as my defeat
I had the news reels flying on repeat
"20 dead on a crowded street" I laughed myself to sleep
Let me question you - a parasite to a whore
Let me question you - who make a living on all fours
Even though I don't at all
(at all)
We're all kings and queens here - crowns of styrofoam
Bleating like goats into cheap streaming microphones
The difference is it's a shame a goat must die for mutton
It's a blessing when we're gone
I'm a man of your world brother- but you are not a man of mine
I'm a man of your world sister - but you're not a woman of mine
I'll be willing, you'll be Abel
Consider this a cold take from he, of a colder time
The Parable of the Mountainside
And upon a mountain, carved, a great sorrow laid strewn. He, for his name was not and is not renowned, lamented for his child. "Oh, you angels - you devils who stole my child from me. In thy careless hands, in thy shining shameful shimmer you whisked her away from me! And for what?!"
As tears rolled down the man's face, an angel appeared before him. A voice thundered and a branch of olive offered. The man leaped afore the angel, and with fury struck upon his wings. With abandon and the force of grief he consumed the angel. Ripping feather and blood covered the ground where they met, the branch consumed in the fervor. "This?! This pale amalgamation of thy shame is what thou senth me?!"
A devil, pleased at seeing his enemy so desecrated, came near the man. However, he, whom so history hath bled and erased, looked into the devil's eyes with no greater joy. A quick maneuver, and he held the devil's tail. Before the monster's very eyes, he et his tail, he ripped his horns and drank he the blood within in gluttonous rage. The devil screamed in agony as it tried to wrench itself free but to no avail. "Mortal! Mortal! Knowest thou not the cost of!" But the mortal cared not, and in the mouth of the devil, his own hoof lodged deep. The devil saw every step of his own consumption, until finally his breath left him.
The mortal turned, angry, lost within his great fury. He took to him the devil's trident, and with it pierced his chest. He looked into the heavens and through hells "I brook no deals! Give me back she who you took or so shall you and yours suffer. I am Revelation!"
