MANIFESTO OF AN ARROGANT INDIVIDUAL

Manifesto of an arrogant individual

Somewhat arrogantly 

I believe my mind is different 

Fundamentally 

From many others 

I read to reaffirm this fact 

Having been so often misinterpreted 

I got very annoyed 

Therefore 

I now consciously ensure my own misinterpretation …

GHOSTED BY PROGRESS

(All) Shrouded in the mist

(On) a day so cloudy 

Broken reflections

Ominous anxiety 

Running upstream

Mountains born free 

Suddenly silence

Lost in ambiguity 

 

Travelling without sleep

Plain stairs by the sea 

Cold concrete (empty) beach

Futures limping idly 

Faceless…

ANOTHER TODDLER KING

My body has grown 

Bigger than my mind

Bow down to me 

Don’t you know?

I’m one of a kind

 

Toddler

(I’m just a toddler)

Love me

(I’m just another toddler)

 

My body has grown 

Bigger than my mind

Bow…

LIP SYNC CRUEL CADAVER

Nice of you to forget about me 

You said you'd call before I sleep 

Another empty promise 

Another lie 

Reject push away 

Fears seal our fate 

 

You wonder why 

I'm distressed 

Argument 

Communicate 

Pain and fear 

Paranoia 

You wonder why …

COMA

Think I’m going to cry 

One of us is going to have to die  

And it’s not going to be me  

  

Is it too late to try? 

Stop the inequality and lies  

Everyone needs to survive  

Not just the few…

NAIL BOMB 1999

Stormont stalls and Belgrade burns 

We want peace but won’t lay down our arms 

Leaving no doubt about our intentions 

So many knife-edged situations 

  

Racist thugs are on the TV 

Placated by public apathy 

Another violent crime denied 

Slipping away…

MISOGYNY’S ENDPOINT

Stop it

 

This is not a nice new story 

Nor is it one to brag to your mates 

This scares me stop it 

I must go now  

Why do you think you can do this to me? 

  

“When you walked…

OUTSOURCE YOUR MIND

Quantize the beat 

For your pleasure 

Simple rhythm 

Keeps you going 

Reproduce it 

Nothing matters 

World in turmoil 

Block it all out 

 

Outsource your mind 

Evolve 

Deface 

Leave you behind 

Retune 

Replace 

 

Do it again 

Endless circles 

Mindless feelings 

Repeat…

THIS IS...

This is

What they’ll bring

To you

You’ve lost everything

Free speech

They’re lying to you

Deep state

Just another excuse

Free hate

What can you do?

Deep fake

Take it all from you

The truth

Obscured from view

Their…

STRONG MAN

I love my strong men

Through the hoax together

Naked on horse back

Bullets don’t touch me

 

Reimagine the scene

Love the new world order

I demand your respect

As I sell your soul

 

As I flip it over

All…

AT THE END

I telegraph your excuse

Observe and speculate

Manipulate

Democratize your views

To divide and to reduce

The State

Contrary and seduced

 

Free speech twisted

In their defence

Offensive charlatans

Grifting violence

Blackmail society

Do their bidding “its fake news”

Dismiss…

HOW DO YOU GAUGE DEFECTS?

Do you gauge defects?

 

Don’t like the progress made

Cultivate an angry, white, male place

Give in to an age-old trope

“Those politicians; they all lie”

Propaganda news channels spread

Polemicists, they rant, rave and hate

Embedding bias, only their…

THE PLAGIARISM OF NARCISSUS

Distance for the avocado 

Morally superior 

Tragedy caused by human kindness 

A choice that comes with a great cost 

Find foundation firmly given 

Suffering silence stigma strong

Pinnacled emptiness

On the crest of the unknown 

 

“Truth False Sing Dance

ANOTHER CHANGE

Something hit me from another life

Accusations of the mirror’s own lies

Empty dialogue, another ghost

Find humanity in desperate plight

Frightened foes fixing fictional fears

In your sleep when you’re most alone

Modernizer for the status quo

On the…
