I don't believe in elitism. I don't think the audience is this dumb person lower than me. I am the audience.

Americans worship creativity the way they worship physical beauty - as a way of enjoying elitism without guilt: God did it.

Strange beings inhabit Earth
Half lizard and half human
Are taught Elitism from birth
'Control' their prime addiction

There's a certain elitism that has crept into the attitudes of some in journalism, and it played out perfectly over the issue of these little American flag lapel pins.

Disregarding The Bed...

in going back to the tradition of
my lowly fathers
to get some sleep
one sometimes must disregard
the elitism of the bed
and have the humble unity with
the floors' embrace...

there will be no pillows
except the softness of your
conscience,
there will be no blankets
except your pure thoughts
for the night
there will be no light
except the glow of your soul

the rest around you
that keeps you warm and
guides you to the entrance door

Those Who Hold The Reigns of Change

Thoughtless.
Arrogant.
Disrespectful.
And showing a high disregard,
For humanity.
Lies.
And flaunts an elitism.

'Oh...
She is much too outdated to lead,
The masses.
And she declares herself the more experienced?
That's the kind of experience,
We no longer need!
And besides...
There is one already,
Who has been totally ignored!

What do they believe they represent?
What other clues do they need?

Posed To Throw Away Democracy?

we are now entering
another power flux in history
beware American Empire
is posed to throw away democracy?

to advance capitalist elitism
and an absolute ruthless
control of earth's last resources
by a fraction of the world's

super dictator populations
plague mega rich virus
festers in all human races
ethnic imaginative disguises

Roman empire needed legions
armies forts to control its empire
Genghis Khan exterminated
all people in wilderness areas

Something About Forever That Is Never Guaranteed

If anyone is unclear,
As to whose accustomed greed
Has been historically jeopardized.
You need only to look into those faces,
To witness a gloating smuggness...
Sinking fast upon those of fattened cheeks.
And a swelling being done,
Of swollen tear dripping eyes.

With this reality that shocks and surprises...
An exclusive feasting enjoyed,
Seems to be diminishing quickly.
With the shrinking of their numbers.
And the ending of them has begun,
To make them appear...
Visably weakened and mentally sick.
And they are aware whatever happens,
From now on they will have to pay for it!

'No free rides?
