"swamp of" watch the blocka wood walking forward. stonewall marching on. bricks breaking on ice cubes till they melt in OUR molten mire. waiting to warm, at last, by the fire. #poetry is #protest.

Living in a wifi coffin to earn a salary buy more shit that I don't need. All I want is to be free Instead it bleeds me dry and I'm left wondering why. (Snipet of a thing I started, then got distracted from. Imagining it like a 90's punk song vibe lol) #wip #wipwednesday #poem #poetry #lyrics?

What I love about #poetry, is that it's always been a form of #protest. If you want to know how people felt about their time on earth, read poetry.
