Ciao, toodle-oo, my dear, your quest is nigh:
you’re off to save the world from the outside
reacting, fighting, injustice declaim
your goal to equal everyone the same
I’m changing from the inside narrative
the game changes demand imperative
imagination breaking free of reins
designed to enthrall (you call me insane)
After I verified the worldwide scam
nefarious plot wrought with bots and spam
fueling the fear in the simulation–
a master course in my education–
painstakingly tracing roots: causation
false premises of rotten foundation,
the luring game’s invisible forcefield
became apparent when I did not yield
To my elation, the bifurcation
of timelines reveals my own creation
outside of the AI computation
reality is my own narration.
Inspired by: Nefarious, Course, Yield, Verify and the lessons learned by the scamdemic.
The informed field awaits to magnify
your intent. Neutral, responsive, nearby
medium. You are the paintbrush: apply
tedium or create, optics defy,
in a flurry of inspired artistry.
Beyond the matrix lies uncharted seas.
What seems to be concrete a quantum leap
reveals the space between ready and deep.
Inspired by: Magnify, Flurry, Optics, Tedium, Concrete and this gem of a book by Jason Breshears, Awaken The Immortal Within.
At night I pace the rain-washed city streets
screens garish blare this is reality
a crowd pours from the IMAX reprogrammed
tossing pithy new phrases signals jammed
spontaneity tergiversated
by someone else’s creation baited
with lures that lead to frustration mountains
labyrinthine paths promising fountains
of felicitous youth. I walk on by
comfortable in my skin, I’m unharmed by
the history-rewritten dissonance
pulling my way upwards with common sense.
Inspired by: Allegory, Mountain, Felicitous and Spontaneous.

My orgone pendant is missing. Child’s play
I surmise as I follow clues: dried clay
my gemstone necklaces all ajumble
the treasure boxes brim with stones tumbled
I mollify my neat freak’s worrying
relax and cease the anxious scurrying
past sticky chairs. Unexpected delight:
new fridge art, I count blessings in clear sight.
Over two years of dubious clampdowns
forsaken by gurus who cowed, bowed down
while out of the box I was scorned and shunned
barefaced, unmasked, intuition forewarned
now 96 countries have changed their tune
follow the money, travel is a boon
economies wrecked, prices through the roof
it’s been a big scam and now comes the proof
Inspired by: Travel, Roof, Guru, Dubious and written in the Stream of Consciousness Saturday for Out of the box.
unexpectedly six decades on dream
lovers and friends that I knew daub weird scenes
exchange faces and names in a tizzy
broad strokes paint new perspectives I’m dizzy
come dawn the advent of light piercing murk
my memories trade busy hawkers lurk
and my studio is a mess, paints flung
passionate disarray insights new-sprung
Inspired by: New, Advent, Broad, Tizzy, Unexpectedly and written in the SOCS style for the prompt New/Knew.
I refuse to use a money that another man can create for free.~Nico @Bitvolt7
Just frolic to dispel constraints cartels
diabolic, painted as saints, bespell
the world with their fiat schemes, scrutinized
by cohorts with greedy dreams, rubies prized
and they need you, to launder the money
print out of thin air and loan, it’s funny
the cycle of debt and regret, goods
fall apart, so you have to buy more. Woods
call seams to fray in the fairytale trance.
Play on words and caper in your own dance.
Naysay narrative. Open eyes surely
see. Emperor has no clothes; it’s purely
a way to conceal the slavery yokes
revealed with bravery, poetry, jokes.
Thirteen families seven billion thrall
until we wake up, perceive our windfall.
Inspired by: Just, Frolic, Dispel, Ruby, Scrutiny and Constraint.
My frugality does not encompass
these esculent offerings: Greens, fungus,
fat squash, root crops with dirt clods still clinging.
No credit cards; it’s cash I’m bringing.
No advertisements manipulating,
no buyers’ remorse, just titillating
recipes which overheard while in queue
mandate a grab: outcome delicious food.
Inspired by: Advertisement, Esculent, Mandate and Outcome.

Some bank men fraud greedily, work Ponzi
schemes, hide apocryphal cartel laundry
streams, blatantly pay off politicians
and testify black lies to commissions
televised questions by curmudgeon guys
whose high dudgeon is an act. You’re surprised
one time, but please, not twice. Be proactive
now you see the device. You’re reactive
time and time again watching movie screens
the same tired old script’s in smithereens.
Surely the long game, you can’t fail to see
setting you up to force CBDCs
controlling every breath from birth to death
dumbed down, enslaved on the quiescent path
You watch until yawning finally wake
in time to create for your higher sake.
Inspired by: Proactive, Curmudgeon, Apocryphal and Sam Bankman Fried’s inglorious billion-dollar steal.
