my new poems

The Truth of Our Rights

“You have the right of free speech”
I say that Obama’s like a leech.
I get arrested
They say America shouldn’t be offended.

“you have the right of free press”
I write America is less
Than it really is.
It really is.

“You have the right to inviolability of the home.”
And my house goes BOOM, I am forced to roam.
American rights will never be,
We will never be free.

The Wrong Side of Love
Love is like a bandit, trying to be your beloved
And running away, to leave you for dead.
Love is an assassin, stalking you in the night
Stabbing you where you stand

Love is that kid who bullies you
And you never have to courage to say “stop!”

Love is that Roach infestation in your home
And you call pest control,
Lest you have to roam.

I had to leave to Russia
To escape what we call love,
To escape the madness
Multiplied by one million.
