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.

Rain

rain on me world
torrents pouring from
sky

rain thru my hair
trickling down my
forehead
momentarily blurring
vision,
torrents pouring
on my naked back
exposed chest

do u see the rivulets
forming and tracking
the scars on my back
and arms?
rain down ur misery
world

do u see?
skin repelling wetness,
droplets unable to linger
or penetrate
ur rain is unable to
soak into my being,
warm as a winter fire

head turned upward
arms inviting the sky
impervious
to ur scorn,
rain down world
while u are able
soon my sun will rise
and vaporise the rain

ur dark skies
and bleak horizon
there is nothing u can
do to prevent
my being from rising
radiant
as the sun
