Stop raping me she says, Stop kneeling on me he says, Stop treating us like we are less than we are, they both say… You promised you wouldn’t kill us yet we were taken against our will and forced to build for you, then you say we are not good enough. Those left behind have […]

Rinsed Plight
Cast a net on my emotions oh glorious one Help me catch these feelings that now overwhelm me I am drowning in a river of my own demise Setting aside all that I know to be the truth; your word Only to erect these false monuments of ideals that do not have foundation in the […]
I Sin Twenty Times
A man with Quintessential attributes is man society dictates as being dramatic, for such a man hate is the accepted emotion expressed whenever he is to be received. “They” tear at him, doing their utmost best to peel him layer by layer to prove him a fraud. Waking up to a world where this man […]
