Respect the Queen

Queen

you are my queen

lie tripping from your tongue

serpent hiss

flicking tongue

spittle along my cheek.

Disgust

pull back

glaring at you

too stupid

to see

to realize

the disdain I feel

written on my face

hidden in plain sight.

King 

oh my king

sneer

sarcasm laced

ego so large

cannot fathom

cannot hear

tunnel vision

self absorbed image

how great

god’s gift to women…..

um…..

no you ain’t.

I know she broke you

tore away your heart

ha buddy read your status

and yet here you are.

Feeding me sweet words

silly innuendos

trying to get me alone

like you never hurt me

made me feel low.

When you scheme

seek to deceive

to play a stealthy game

your own stupidity

will make me laugh

and seriously

I have to much respect for myself.

The Devil Dances

**Picture found on Internet**

Once it was written in the stars

that as the truth appeared

slithering snakes

would begin to shed their skins

and attempt to destroy it all.

We hail the great white chief

pandering to his lack of brains

listening with blood lust

to his tales of war to come

when the world shall be revamped

in the image he foresees.

There is no hope.

There is no love.

We have come to be

in this terrible time

all because

the 1% grasped with fingers fat

draining the bank

and taxing the poor.

Wait though

that is not the only truth

not all want to destroy.

If you look over there

see the huddled masses

wanting nothing more than to find peace.

Peace in all lands

peace to engage

in conversations and love affairs

without worry that death will come calling.

He rides the pale horse

scythe in hand

reaping the souls of innocents.

Laughter rings out

the world afire

no time

no way back.

And the devil capers in delight

as destruction reigns down

in a blazing light.
