THOUGHT'S
Conformity is not unity
Conformity is not unity
Conformity is not unity
Conformity is not unity
The systematic assasination of community
Forced perspective, mob mentality, smoke and mirrors
Astronomically improbable fact of existence
Traded for a pittance.
Pretending everything is ok is not the same as fixing the problem
Nazis are marching in the street
removal of abject objectification
incomparable to histories repetition
There should be more resistance
we really should be more insistent
persistence
just words
our countries run by infants
Gender has nothing to do with your penis or vagina
Gender has nothing to do with your penis or vagina.
Gender has nothing to do with your penis or vagina.
We are the remnants of the big bang existing in a void filled with infinity,
you'll excuse me,
but your notions of what my gender should be are of very little concern to me
I am and that's enough.
Or it should be
My status as human depends on geography
systematic eradication, dehumanization
unjustifiable laws brought to bare
All to make it impossible for me.
To just be.
Expect resistance.
I would love to be of consequence
it's all I can do anymore, just stepping out the front door
my energy so wrapped up in basic existence
we could use some assistance.
There are no simple answers.
There are no simple answers.
Nothing is easy
even those things not meant to be
we know that time is not actually a to B
just pretending never ending
I don't have the wisdom, look back through the glass of time
rigged like the system
I may not have the ending but,
I know it will start with love.

Existence is Resistance.
This was powerful. I have many times wondered on why most of us are restricted in so many different ways, simple based on being born few miles away from one another.
It's a shame we're all pawns in political games.
Couldn't agree more, except that we have been convinced to be pawns, stepping out of that is painful but shakes the rotted core of this modern political landscape🙃🦄🙃 words>swords
well, if you were a knight, a rook, a bishop or queen on a chess board, you are much more dangerous. Power means responsibility, and one wrong move means you lose much more than losing a pawn. So we are happy to be pawns, not put targets on our backs.
I wish I lived that way🦄 however your point is taken and 100% valid. I was more hinting that we are all Queens and Kings if we so choose however yes those choices do bare weight, danger lies in the spotlight. Sometimes there's simply no choice however, you have to say curse Queen Mab and all the hells I'm going to run my own world. Its dangerous and slow moving however it is rewarding. I'm sorry to go on I'm doing my pot review so I'm high and feeling philosophical. I hope your day is lovely!!🦄🦄
ahhahaha. i totally enjoy this, and I do agree. we can all be queens, just most of us refuse to be. I'm off to sleep because it's 10pm here and I'm a silly 23-year old man who keeps himself on a strict bedtime. Was fun - goodluck on the review
Thank you sleep well!🖤🦄🖤🦄
love it, ' i am and thats enough', i love the power and yes fuck the system, in this poem, that's what we need, all the bullshit we have been fed but there are so many awake and on to it.
Heck yes, thank you! 🦄
Get. It.
And she nailed it, she did.
(Love that mani. Grrr.)
Thank you!!:-)
Perseverance, determination and power achieve everything
What you said here, quote "There should be more resistance
we really should be more insistent
persistence
just words
our countries run by infants".....O.P.
Tommorow is Presidents Day and for some reason that resonated with me...what you wrote made me think of Trump and the Infants running around D.C. and elsewhere that need to be changed out like a bad diaper
b.a.
I'm exceedingly happy that came through, its exactly what I was thinking when I penned it🦄🦄☺🙃☺
