1. HONING STAGNATION

You believe in growth along a linear path
Yet feed your mind with the same old messages

A master of confirmation bias
Mistaking the circular for linear
Thinking challenging your beliefs
Is being hardheaded when challenged

Honing stagnation
Perfecting ignorance

Illusion of growth
A tree that bears hollow fruits
Ready to be cut down
And cast into the fire


2. SOCIAL INJUSTICE WARRIORS

Proudly hateful
Aversion to understanding
Self-righteous cowards
Uniting in fear based aggression


3. EYES AND EARS TO WHAT

You can read
You don't see
You can hear
You don't listen


4. SOME PEOPLE CAN'T MAKE A JOKE

It used to be that a person could take it
When their joke just wasn't funny
Now it's 'you're too sensitive'
Or 'you think I'm offensive'

Hurt or no hurt
Offensive or not
No one owes you a laugh
For the jokes you make


5. TERRORIST IS YET ANOTHER WORD FOR COWARD

Dominance and lies
Aggression and violence
The tools of cowards
Desperate for control

Weak and fearing a world not conforming
To their fragile wants, beliefs, and gods
Some are ready to escape through death
Too afraid to live this life

The weak, and cowardly, gorging themselves
On their own fears before spreading
Their antiquated fear-driven beliefs
Threatened by equality for all

Attempts to prove power through violence
Showing how truly powerless
They feel and are
Terrorists are no more than cowards
Pawns of fear
And fear-based ideologies

Suicide bombers, bigots, misogynists,
Political and religious extremists,
Mass shooters, faux news media
Cowards spreading their own fears

We must challenge cowardice
Not succumbing to fear with fear
Embracing wisdom and peace
Leaving fear no more space


6. COWARD IS YET ANOTHER WORD FOR HUMAN

Our fears complicate a mandate
To love and respect all
And take a stand against hate
But not each other


7. THERE IS NO GLORY...

In war


8. COMNMUICITAON

Your words are as clear as mud


9. YOU'RE NOT PRO-LIFE

You're not pro-life; you're just pro-birth
Shallow moral supremacist
Throwing the baby out with the bath water
All part of your reckless crusade


10. GLORY IN TRAGEDY IS TRAGIC

Tragedy strikes and you praise God for keeping you safe and alive
What does that mean for those who died?
What does that mean about your god?
Tragedy strikes and you praise God for his will that’s good and divine
How do your delusions comfort their families?
How do your delusions comfort anyone but you?


11. CHEAP RATIONALIZATION OF OBJECTIFICATION

Writing off your “lust” as biological
To absolve you of responsibility

All of the whining
All the complaining
Conveniently blaming
Continually shaming…

Everyone and everything
Except the mind that controls the dick


12. CALLING IT

Call it a night
