Dreams of the Fool

In the kingdom
of Amazon women
where I daily toil
I am the lovable lump...

A once proud nobleman was I ..

  
Today a slapstick jester
summoned for comic relief
who amuses the Queen
and her cackling court
for the loose change
they drop in my cup..

A neutered eunuch

playing the butt of all jokes fool..

Behind this clown's smile

is a sly serpent's determination..

Waiting patiently

for the wheel of fate to turn

and for Karma to reverse

my current bitter situation..

Forth and Back

I love contrarians
poking holes in my opinions
forcing me to defend my positions
as I parry and thrust back at them..

This stirring mix of the thought process
percolates meaningful debate
which can actually create
innovative advancements
to all sides of the truth equation

Gender Blenders

Peeps stuck in the 20th Century
seem excessively obsessed

with gender assignment..

They DEMAND roles be defined narrowly..

Pronoun ID's gotta roll binary..

You MUST be either a he or she
like it was for centuries
while those who did not fit
were socially ostracized

and condemned

by the hateful majority..

So what is a woman?

What is a man?

Not so obvious anymore..

There's now a serious degree of fluidity

flowing through once rigid definitions..

Slowly eroding prejudiced conventions..

Fear not our social evolution..

Change does not mean the end of civilization...

Embrace the rainbow

of the human condition  

and let people choose to be

whatever they need to be..

And if you can't adapt to the new reality

learn to mind your own frickin business 

Off Center

Loony birds of a feather
truly flock together..

Ruffling staid conventions

to the chagrin of the pack...

We're all damaged goods

lingering on the clearance rack..

So next time you feel lonely
and out of step with normalcy
just remember
you are a solid member
of the odd ball majority..

Rolling slightly wobbly
but always uniquely

Seed Libations

 

Alcohol...

That behavior clouding libation
lubricating the loins of history...

What percentage of the population
owes it's very existence
to boozy fueled
inhibition reducing procreation?

Ever Aftering

Take your insipid distractions
wherever you kind find them..

Draw the curtains tight..

Blast the artificial light..

Get immersed in the fairy tale
with all the hokey symbolism
cynics will surely mock..

Their suffocating world of gray
polluted with jaded sarcasm
is a toxic waste land anyway

Dreams don't need heavy substance

or happiness draining reality validation 

Temptation Situation

So here I am..

A hungry middle age man..

Before me a steaming bowl

of digestive temptation..

The time is 10 PM..

Past experience tells me
this snack would be
an all night gastric calamity
of sleep deprivation..

Common sense demands

I put down this damn utensil..

What a crock it is
being so predictably practical..

FUCK IT..

Let's dine tonight with regret...

 

Still Standing

 

I have been diminished
depressed and devalued..

Reminded constantly
of my insignificance..

All these self esteem death missiles
have been launched in my direction..

And yet here I am
still standing defiantly..

Not giving a damn
what those bastards think of me

I guess this is persistence
