Pssst, I Have The List

The cloaked figure wearing aviator shades crouched low shaded by the doorway nervously checking his surroundings, his eyes shifting from side to side

A hooded shape emerged from behind the dumpster and cautiously approached the figure in a slow crab-like stride

“You got the list?” asked hoodie. “Yeah, I got it” replied Ray Bans

“Let’s see the money,” said the man peering over the top of his frames and holding out his hands

The briefcase snapped open and the minimal light illuminated packs of $100’s stacked neatly in rows

Handing over the thick dossier the sunglass man grabbed the briefcase and into the night he goes

Hoodie stood there shivering even though it wasn’t cold. He knew he had in his possession a list that could bring down CEOs, Hollywood elitists, and many a political heavyweight

With trembling hands he slid out the first sheet and there it was, a list of who was on the flights to sicko island and the date

With blackmail looming large, hoodie headed to the nearest Staples to make copies

It was then he noticed several initials entered multiple times highlighted by yellow sharpies

He now had the power. The highlighted initials could easily be tied to real names

Also in the packet were several videotapes. Each were connected to highlighted initials and those initials were from names everyone blames

“Oh what fun it will be to hear the denials,” hoodie thought

But the more sinister idea was the monetary reward as his silence will have to be bought

“So Mr Muckety Muck, you want that tape of you and the nine year old kept under cover?”

“That’ll be 100 grand for me to suppress that disgusting thing being done to you by your little lover”

“And Mrs X, that film of you and your real partner cutting up that 12-year-old, that’s half a million to you”

“Just remember this is a yearly tax that will be adjusted for inflation. Karma’s a real bitch depending on who you choose to screw”

“These lists and tapes will never see the light of day as they give me a tremendous advantage”

“It’ll be a real chore to keep up with all these high profile names but somehow I’ll have to manage”

But these kind of vile acts couldn’t happen in America. These heinous offenses would immediately lead to long stretches of jail time handed down by impartial judges

That would be the judges who weren’t on the list, abide by the Constitution, and bear no grudges

We’re Gonna Need You One More Time

It’s been four years since we last spoke, my how time does fly

We all hope you’re doing well but we do have one request before we say goodbye

You see we’re going to need you to vote for us when you can

Remember we’re the party that is running a woman of color against an old white man

And its because of her we’re only gonna need you one more time

Because now she is promising a better economy, a secure border, and to be tough on crime

Ignore the fact that because of her administration that you are struggling to make ends meet, fill your car, put food on the table, and gunshots that keep you awake at night

Keep in mind that its all Trump’s fault and continue to hate everything white

That hopeless feeling that hits you every morning is just a normal reaction

Living slightly below paycheck to paycheck, we’ll wave fictitious reparations under your nose as a distraction

We’re going to ask you to tap dance one more time down to the ballot box

While you step toe over the junkies, the pushers, and hostile migrants that have taken over your blocks

Because in four more years we won’t need your vote as the 10 million new citizens will all be voting for us

Meaning in reality you’ll be sitting further back in the bus

We’re already moving them into your cities to take over your neighborhood

Foreign language signs will now be viewed where your uncle’s store of fifty years had stood

But don’t worry about that, like a largemouth bass seeing a shiny new lure, we’re going to reel you in

We’re going to ignore the real issues and make this election about gender and the color of your skin

We’re gonna make up some facts, call them true, try to arrest our opponent, and glorify our candidate

Oh yeah, we’ll get some celebrities and rap stars to appear on stage and say we’re great

So because your relatives before you blindly voted for us and because to their old beliefs they cling

We’re asking you to vote for the woman who washes her greens in her tub and has a Tobasco flavored bathtub ring

When One Becomes Devoid Of Thought

Recently a TikTok video surfaced showing Moms cracking eggs on their toddlers foreheads

Causing a confused pained look of not understanding on the toddler’s face trying to blink back the tears she sheds

The moms in the video laugh hysterically at this moment, mugging for the camera they had carefully placed

So they could have a moment of pathetic fame in a video of abusing a trusting child done in extremely bad taste

The real question is why has the world become a place where children have become the object of jokes, derision and sexual urges

Has the internet become a place for the depraved thoughts of formerly closeted perverts to emerge evidenced as the crimes against kids surges

Cracking eggs on a moppet’s head may seem mild but is this just the start? What if the next trend calls for something more drastic

Where is the line drawn? Maybe sticking the child’s head in a toilet bowl is trending and that idea seems fantastic

For a parent to devalue their kids this way should be considered a misdemeanor criminal act

The need to be filmed at the expense of your child’s well-being is a thoughtless act even if it is just one egg cracked

Children need to know their parents believe in them and are someone they can trust

And not be considered a burden, a welfare check, and treated with disgust

It’s a tough world to be kid. Everyday stories about juveniles in trafficking and crimes lead the headline news

The current crop of children exposed to this daily information are biding their time, having to put up with parents who feel children are theirs to abuse

And in a few short years these confused kids will have kids of their own

Idiocy breeds idiocy as these formerly abused kids now have their own to torture as that is all they have ever known

Social media has become an addictive sickness that lures the mindless with its digital candy

As cruelty, harmful pranks, and violence are videoed everyday in an attempt to make it seem just dandy

Hunter’s Potential NIL Deal

Recently much has been written about student athletes selling their likeness and name in college sports

Recruitment has taken a new approach from sitting on Mama’s couch to now openly waving around the big bucks says the news reports

Major cash payments are made to star athletes to make sure they sign with a specific team

Coincidentally, the selling of a name and likeness has also been a Biden dream

With the help of both the DOJ and the FBI there is no limit to the amount of cash any Biden can stash

The Bidens are sure that money buys class so people will no longer imply the White House is occupied by slimey white trash

Let’s all take a look at the potential sales for name and likeness for the now scot-free Hunter Biden

As he just received a slap on the wrist and is now thumbing his nose at everyday folks because daddy is presiding

The radio is now free to play the tiresome jingle of the Hunter endorsed Jo-boi’s crack house.

We get the best crack, it’ll sure get you high and then as a bonus when you can’t leave the house you get to bang your dead brother’s spouse♫

Also lining up for their share their payola with Hunter is the kiddie porn website Lil T&A

This website seems to focus on immature relatives dressed in lingerie on which uncles, daddies and granddaddies may prey

Not wanting to be left out of the cash cow give away is Big Mike’s Pawn and Gun Shop

Included with each gun sale is a fake certificate stating the background check is legit and directions for when things get hot to the nearest clandestine dumpster drop

Finally, foreign countries are all clamoring to have a Biden seated on the board

State run gas companies, off shore banking, and climate change dodges are all paying the Big Guy and son all they can afford

So once again college athletics have been reduced to looking like rank amateurs when it comes to raking in the big bucks

Now instead of the deep pockets of influential alumni boosters, this NIL campaign is financed by foreign governments with security provided by the DOJ and the FBI and that is what really sucks

The Fat Kid Always Played Right Field

Back in the day before the internet became the driving force of today’s health repercussions

The slow fat kid always played right field with the coach hoping the ball didn’t bounce off his head causing concussions

But obesity wasn’t the problem it is today. The steady diet of screen time, soft drinks and pizza rolls has taken its toll

It’s easy to eat when the monotoned educator drones on about an uninteresting subject and the student lost all interest immediately after the teacher took role

Recently the American Academy of Pediatrics released new guidelines for treating childhood obesity advising updated treatments

Included in these listings were new rounds of medications and surgery causing raised eyebrows and parental disagreements

Big Pharma once again is popping the cork on celebratory champagne as many of the drugs mentioned are ongoing and expensive

Insurance may or may not pay the drug costs so throw covered bariatric surgery in the mix and have a medical professional sell the idea should you be apprehensive

There’s nothing like taking a self concious, sensitive kid and putting them through major surgery for a gastric sleeve or a lap band

It’s a quick susceptible solution to a problem when in a fair number of cases the issue could be solved by shutting the door on the over active social media gland

Seattle Public Schools this past week filed a lawsuit against Big Tech for creating a health crisis by creating mental addiction

This is the same type of public system that insisted on face time teaching, covid testing, shots and mask mandates for two years sounding much like a hypocritical contradiction

Public schools have lost a generation of kids. Poorly educated, angry, and not mentally equipped to handle society

Teaching that an individual’s choices will determine their future should become a priority

The fat kid probably didn’t like playing right field during the sixth inning in a lost cause of a game

But he learned at an early age that life is not always fair and participation trophies are meaningless and lame

Don’t Bogart That E-cig

Don’t Bogart that joint, pass it over to me

In the film Easy Rider the group Fraternity of Man did decree

One can picture Bogie cigarette dangling from his lips in a melancholy film noir

Slouching against a bar, dinner jacket and sleepy eyes fresh from the ingenue’s boudoir

Somehow the impact of the scene would lose effectiveness if Bogart disappeared in a water vapor mist

The movie world would never see when a kiss is just a kiss

Disguising itself as a way to kick tobacco the e-cig industry created a huge income craze

Appealing not only for the buzz but also the cool factor the ad business portrays

Ignore the fact the e-juice may have been assembled by a profiteer at his kitchen table

And to make it look legit slap on a counterfeit label

Today there are expensive devices that produce those euphoric vapors

Gone are the paranoid days at the mini mart buying the J B rolling papers

Just knowing the entire U.S . Intel community was outside hiding in the kudzu vines

With their sniper scopes trained on your back while peering through the Georgia pines

Many of the present day vaping products sold contain unregulated juice

Pretending lung damage happens to the other guy makes for a risky calculated excuse

Producing a current potential lesson on how to whistle as a walk away tease

“You know how to whistle don’t you? You just put your lips together and wheeze.”

Social Media’s Crushing My Soul

Leaving the Doc’s sterile office, the exam paper left streaks on my rear
My lethargy and depression seemed symptomatic and I hoped not severe
My daily routine seemed aimless, what were goals were now dismissed
I was sleepwalking through life, working and eating but only to exist
Friendships seemed hollow, pleasure was fleeting as the world seemed a brownish gray
Hopefully the doctor could read something in my blood sample and right my dismay
I couldn’t check my personal page, look at my Twitter account or Instagram
As everyone’s got it better, has more followers, and about me not give a damn
In the past six months I’ve been friended by only four people that I don’t know
I liked something I saw so the friend request arrived to keep all status quo
The buzzing in my mind has grown louder reminding me of my inadequacy
And now I fear the persistent noise can’t be diagnosed clinically
The alcohol, the drugs, prescribed or not had only opened doors to nowhere
My tiny unremarkable life has become an unrelenting nightmare
No one notices, no one cares. The nurse only wanted my copay
So the doc can tell me nothing is wrong and to put my phone away.
But I can’t put it down, my cell has become me, I’m it’s identity
It’s my voice to all the other voices shouting at the globe’s inhumanity
It’s my umbilical cord to others meager triumphs and a channel to their hatred
The short video clips and bits of text all seem extreme, common sense negated
My thoughts begin to tumble, foreign voices and color explosions swirled
This device has become my addiction, an obsession in my private netherworld
Irrational thoughts of fame and glory have become a daily norm
My indifference coupled with lost souls’ recorded conflicts becomes a perfect storm
I’m feeling the need to end it all and find peace from the innate turmoil
Not to be understood,  my resolution makes sense to me and my mentor the phone, stays loyal
