Endless Possibilities

Wonder what the possibilities are for today, how do u always know the right things to say, it's like u feel my emotions, the random rhythm of the ocean, and the waves like tears wash away sand imperfections, did u know ur flaws and mistakes are actually blessings, simply waking up to take a breath, haunts the souls that have left this earth dead, floating so cold and invisible, u gotta learn the difference between sarcastic and literal, poetry is artistic imagery with words, I don't shy away from shame or worse...hurt, the fear of pain motivates passion, a good scare can shock u and make u jump into action, when the going gets tough, a warrior survives becuz of the power of love, it's a driving divine force, can u say Tony Danza wore the pants on Who's The Boss, gender roles have become outdated and obsolete, Caitlin Jenner has revolutionized the movement so trannys aren't considered freaks, between Ireland and now the US, we will defeat ISIS and Russia next is my guess, I want freedom and equality for all, wonder if homosexuality will be humanity's downfall, historians suggest that's what happened to Rome, i don't understand why I can't define my own idea of family and home, I may live my life unmarried and alone, but hey if it makes me happy I'll move to Colorado to have crazy gay sex and legally stay stoned!

Existential Revelation

When u remove urself from a bad equation, ur able to have an existential revelation, self actualize what u really want in life, societal capitalistic pressure adds to the stress and strife, people piss me off, constantly gossip and scoff, but i try to lead and be an ample example, that despite being knocked down constantly and trampled, doesn't mean u can't get up again and rise above, the whole point to this existence is finding love, it comes in all varieties and forms, we individually define what's our own norm, been learning to lower my expectations, and give myself some credit and appreciation, I'm much too deep and serious all the time, no I'm not a slutty flirt I'm actually just genuinely outgoing nice and kind, i feel trapped and it's stifling both my mind and soul, my heart's never been fully whole, tho I have an abundance of amazing relationships, I'm rather anxious and impatient to see future blessings and gifts, cuz I'm always working hard at growing my craft, it's impossible to not take shit personally repeatedly getting the shaft, like I'm being metaphorically sadistically edged and teased, by sarcastic assholes and religious extremists/bullies, we're coming to a tipping point where that'll no longer legally be tolerated, I'm still shocked by the crazy amount of atrocious ignorance discrimination and hatred, very much real not only alive and well but prevalent, I'd say it's pretty clear cut obvious and evident, a lot is riding on who becomes the next American president!

The Powers Of Faith Hope & Love

Some days it's all poetry others it's excessive memes, sometimes someone else can better capture the essence of what my emotions mean, I feel so deeply cuz I'm super sensative, i hate when others demean or make fun of the way I choose to live, I always try to support my family and friends, does everybody really just fake and pretend is my question, cuz otherwise I need to understand why, am I so sexy smart talented and funny yet still a single gay guy, the constant rejection is brutal torture, ull never see me dressed in drag or couture, it simply is not my style, I've decided to take a break and go away for a lil while, from now on I'll only share my gifts, with those who truly support and appreciate my shit, i refuse to have the life and soul sucked out of me, I'll be much more self sustainable after I get my music production degree, the best things in life aren't free, and nobody ever said it's fair or easy, when the going gets rough and tough, suck it up and believe in the powers of faith hope and love, and when it seems the only person u can depend on is urself, remembering "footprints in the sand" helps, knowing that in our darkest hours He has the strength to carry us, inspires the will to live again and to dig deep down inside to find my bravery and guts!

Gotta Love Sarcasm

Don't judge only knowing a brief piece, take each poem or song indivually, trust I'm not a negative asshole, but oppression and rejection takes a toll, and even tho I talk a great game, my sarcasm drives many crazy and insane, i will however never censor or sugar coat my shit, wish the industry wld promote real authentic talent that's impressive and legit, why is that i become the bad guy, for giving my opinion and speaking my mind, isn't that what democracy is all about, I really can't handle this cut throat capitalistic bout, if money can't buy happiness why do u want it so bad, why are u mad I'm not ecstatic and glad, afterall the supreme court ruled in favor of gay marriage, which is as outdated a practice as the idea of retirement or riding a horse drawn carriage, but believe u me im all for love, I'm getting better at knowing when and where to simply shut up, sometimes silence, can be deadlier than violence, it's funny if I go away for a while yall miss me, and when I get more successful I bet ull play dumb and ditzy, I've never been flashy glamorous or glitzy, i can hang with the full spectrum from hood rat to ritzy, I've decided to go back to school for a music production degree, which will hopefully someday hang next to my Grammy or 3!

Animosity

How many more hurdles must I make, before I catch some sort of a break, getting ur hopes up only to be let down isn't right, yet it's the story of my life, people mean well but don't have any follow thru, how many times must I repeat it's not what u say but if u do, I need to be someplace that appreciates me and my talents, where opportunity comes to the good hearted genuine and valient, who says chivalry is dead, if u come for me u will be read, I'm tired of complaining and hearing myself bitch, beginning to get the moving bug/itch, RI is too soul sucking, rude and prude when it comes to the topic of gays fucking, i never in my wildest dreams, cld imagine I'd have this much animosity, everybody is consumed by fear and repression, structured religion is the root cause I'm guessing, seriously I've gotten spiteful and begrudging, this sex rut im in is absolutely mind numbing, i refuse to settle for less and start slumming, to get that euphoric feeling of releasing/cumming, i will not compromise when it comes to my music or love, but does there come a point when ur so annoyed u know it's time to give up?

The Sheeple

Too politically correct to be happy, u can think I'm a crazy freak and laugh at me, but i know what I want and like, Im not afraid to ask for it or fight, u all keep settling for less, thinking compromise is the best, one man's trash is another's treasure, i don't understand how a humans value and worth is measured, having money really isn't the answer, but it can buy a cure for aids and/or cancer, afterall it does rule the world, thank god I don't get paid the same wage as girls, look at how far we've come with equal rights, i can cry on command when I think of the awful atrocities caused by whites, feel so damn guilty but it's not my fault, how come Pixar doesn't have the classic nostalgia like Walt, Disney put a lil magic back into life, adults don't believe but kids still might, love is very powerful and special, similar to music it's universal and existential, it knows no limitations or boundaries, remember when there were arranged marriages and doweries, imagine having that but for lesbians and gays too, tho it is amazing we have the federal ability to now say I do, I don't have hope or faith, cuz I've never dreamed or fantasized about my wedding day, honestly I'm pretty scared and afraid, that idea isn't in my cards or how I was made, most people only love me as a friend, I wish I was better at faking shit and playing pretend, perhaps everything wldnt seem so morbidly dismal and bleak, boredom and lonliness make time the biggest creep, this is a huge uphill battle and the road is steep, u can't even differentiate between hurders and the sheep, im jumping off a cliff who's following me?!

Just Another Casualty

One day ull wake up and I'll be long gone, all ull have to remember me by are my hip hop/rap songs, I don't wear my heart on my sleeve, but i totally bare my soul thru my poetry, I'm 100% uncensored without any filter, i wanna be more iconic to gay youth than Barney or Bob the builder, what happened to the positive role models for kids, freedom depends entirely where u were born and live, I don't really understand prejuice nor discrimination, why do so many settle compromise and become comfortable being complacent, nobody cares anymore about the greater good, the wealthy would eradicate everyone else if they could, even judges and cops are unjust and corrupt, pretty soon the poor are gonna get fed up and errupt, we can only take so much going without, eventually rage takes over and causes a massive bout, people are only human and have a breaking point, imagine being punched in the tit or kicked in the groin, pretty much that's what's been happening, and most just sit back gawking and laughing, we supposedly have all this power, yet u turn a blind eye and cower, rather let someone else do the dirty work, just like a stereotypical spoiled lazy jerk, but of course u wanna reap the benefits, I'm disgusted by what whites have done to blacks Indians and Jesuits, seriously it's hard to look at myself in the mirror, i assumed as u get older ur destiny gets clearer, but the sad unfortunate reality, is we all will one day become just another casualty, the important thing to remember, we will get a whole lot further in life if we stick together, since united we stand divided we fall, I'm simply astonished and appalled u don't have the balls to answer my call!
