"Asymmetry

Keyboard"


Google, your data suppression methods are obvious, easily recorded, abysmally inept and generally pathetic.

The simple fact that you actively engage in suppressing this and other alternative news sites means we have won and TRUTH will prevail in the end.

.

like rain the strains of ur lute
refresh my parched spirit
i have been running all my life
ur magical melody allowed me to stop,
cease my needless spinning
and lift my head to the heavens
the sky shimmers in joy

i imagined i was alive
but was just another of the walking dead
what do the dead know
of life?
morbidity/death is the realm
of the dead

i spread my arms across the
breathing, pulsing universe
free
from all my self-imposed prisons
free
of all culture's poisonous ideologies
free
from every manufactured, learned falsity
of man

u were always there
above me, below me, all around me
waiting -
now i embrace u
and will never let u go
