The Pen is the Sword

The Silence

written by: Jack T. Pennington

 

 

In the silence

telepathic

seen and unseen

are linked

douth unto those

of whom have dared

cross the brink.

Meditation in thoughts

our own thing

with no name,

roots entangled

in the search for water,

the elixir to life

the momentum

of what must thrive.

 

 

 

 

 

The Exodus of Nature

written by: Jack T. Pennington

 

 

 

Upon the shores of fisherman

red in the face

due to not just the sun,

but promises undone.

Unions broken,

waves of emotion

sunk ships of hope.

Tears were salty stinging reminders of the past,

white hot blasts

that erased life

and now one had no diction

for the word “thrive”.

Energy is dangerous in the hands of thumbs up likers of all,

excess the access

to wisdom through the

choice of being dumb.

A mouse is wise

in his crumb

know it’s existence

is a present in this tense.

No border drawn can negate

the negativity you propagate

nature is round

and profound

like a frequency unheard,

deep mysterious

but she is furious.

Your duty to nurture

will know no limit,

magnet adjusted

for all and dusted

we will become

because of an idea

of a kingdom thinking all the while you are the only one.

 

 

Political Proxy

Logic is beset by words that follow a set of actions known to be branches set to a tree of knowledge.

 

Knowledge an experience to function not an illusion; wishing to be reconstructed only to be shown as mere paradox to function.

 

Our world is ether-connected,

constant experience and knowledge transcribed instantly on a web of flashing lights,

moral fights,

human plights,

dismal political rights,

propaganda frights,

greedy piles,

the jealousy competitive prize,

politicians in actors' disguise,

unclear minds,

non-negotiable ties,

unearthly lies,

to self one of all,

this constantly we deny.

 

Question why.

 

Understand the proxy plan.

 

Thinkers are traders to the clan.

 

Our lifespan dwindled in confusion,

fusing and conning,

not cunning,

wisdom is adrift,

in our only human gift.

Our magic a hidden hieroglyph,

our love a magical trip, a leap off a cliff, knowing one won't fail to our call;

nurture in nature unto all.

 

Contradiction a diction a political fiction,

the wanting of friction.

 

Do away with your cliché's within.

 

Political proxy,

eye toss thee condensed theory unexperienced,

fierce for power only to pray when on death's tongue you lay, douth you do, too late you wish to share your plate.

 

No, unto you I do not hate, nor wait for fate, karma or harm on ya' for the truth is not ready for the fool who wishes everyone as a tool.

 

Bend thy rule in passion

red thought cannot be bought

blue and multi-polar marble erect,

no imperial fallic symbol to overcome your paradoxical thought.

 

In your own demise I help real eyes realize your disguise, deep down political ties are pitiful even Gilgamesh wrote his poetry to demote your war ridden clones, in your glass homes.

 

 

"What it is to be Rich"

written by: Jack Tupac Pennington

 

Rich in heart

rich in blood

rich in art

rich in the middle of

mud

 

Rich in health

rich in conscious stealth

rich in knowing thy self

rich in communication

rich in this place within

 

social stratus

his a civil apparatus

tradition in ownership

selfishness

Known to be prone

to be conditioned as

a clone

a drone

a deaf tone

 

What it is to be

is knowing only one thing

 

feeling free is being

 

no money can make you rich

 

money is filth

money is still

static

 

money is loved by the Psychopath

 

Money runs away from these facts...

 

 

 

 

"Still There"

written by: Jack Tupac Pennington

 

Still there coffee

in the air

 

morning stairs

faces more stares

 

still who cares

I am still here

still prepared

 

this place has me

snared

 

tear torn

social porn

drink from the horn

call of the wild

 

I gots style

all the while

 

after so many a while

after so many a trial

 

still with that wanting to be free

in my mind

here I find

 

Buying time

time finding

mime

 

in mine

in ours

seconds, minutes

hours, days

Now never fades

 

staying in one

place

 

Ritual never obeys

social case

portrays

relays

 

connection subjection

mere suggestion

 

keeps new comers

guessin`

 

stayers confession

wont had thought

I would stay to

rot

 

The place where I lay my head is

God

 

Never forgetting what life

taught

 

Thinking my spirit shall never be

caught

 

On this stage one last

prop

 

Get what I have

got

 

on this sphere one of many a

spot

 

Enjoying everything till the last

drop...

 

"Loyalty"

written by Jack T. Pennington

 

Being loyal makes your breathing time on this planet royal.

Perhaps mothers' are one star alone but they alone do not brighten the sky

 

cry

 

Here it comes,

think,

thought of cast down kings and bums

 

loyalty to selfishness

keeping in mind you are the only keeper of your own health.

 

Loyalty to others is staying at their side even when the tide is against you.

 

Loyalty and trust

is like time and dust

 

Honor is a must

relation to understanding patience

 

weeding out traitors

 

political waiver

group behavior a gesture,

a favor

 

loyalty is a relationship

flavor

 

sour at the wrong

hour

 

but if not had leaving everything ripe turning

sour

 

the hidden shadow that shall devour

the strongest of power

 

to it cowards

cower

 

even hatred can help to not build a fortress

or tower

 

to keep one from the wrath of

 

loyalty not had leading all away on a path not easily forgiven past

 

straight to hell

moving fast

 

devils, demons, destroyers onto you I demand you force their hand

 

for one grain of sand does not make land

deny their existence that very place where they stand

 

loyalty is the royalty

 

in me, myself, and eye

 

steady hands pry

old hearts cry

 

loyalty in thyself

shall never die

 

loyalty unto others is a lie

 

the answer to man's question of why

a controlled trick by which he shall die

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Life's Escalations"

written by Jack T. Pennington

 

Mad doesn't describe the skull and cross bone images that scribe one's tomb

 

life's escalations

your flirt with death's

expectations

 

we could have found a solution

compromised a resolution

 

but that doesn't fit

this years social institution

 

because fuck having intuition

 

life learning skills its about consuming expensive thrills

 

and when you gotta problem

 

take five of those stay alive pills

so you, can go on

havin' expensive thrills

you helpin' the politicians with easy kills

making followers drills

tactic

for educations practice

trained synaptic

the fact is

far away or just way to fuckin' distracted to give a shit anyway

 

ooh the games humans play

don't fuckin complain

the truth is hideous stain

 

nobody wants to give it

fame

 

Life's escalations may have delayed us

but it makes us trust us

 

thinking towards a future

somewhere not far

 

symbiotic would be is perhaps a Utopian

collapse

 

a hidden stance

one fucking instance

of thought that shit that can't be bought

taught

but gone unfaught makes critical thought...an item waiting to be porducted and and baught by the oldies who got caught

not showing feelings

feeling things

and telling others not to be

weeping

while they keep keeping

blind humans trying to

inspire others to keep

seeing...

 

 

 

 

This Won`t Be the Last

written by Jack T. Pennington

 

This won`t be the last not the first this verse and many more are here to emplore us of words as swords to slay

the dragons that want you to want and you think you have, but its an illusion at best it is what ever you guess this is just logic spun from a spider that eats fire. The first time is a lie, the last is a gas that can be passed. There are no facts. Do what do do because being is not the same as Sleeping! Awake you yourself in self you will find all the wealth. Money, paper, plastic, gold, silver, all used to

gain something thrown away turned to dust and sprinkled over the very food you need to trust. Radiation isn`t just spread over one nation expect the unexpected we can squat the fucking moon! Take out blood of earth, dust of death, time of space, spirit of face and she will swallow us whole. Destroy egos mother of our nature for we share not ths lofty lot, no , we plot to take over, theorize a controller. No big picture here just lots of fear we are further from ourselves as near to civilization in creation or some sub-mental Masterbation. No, no this is a material manifestation optimistic Materialization of devision of all, a label to help us loose trust in metaphysical formation in ourselves, our dreams are meant to be more than what they seem. A feeling has more worth as Communication than all the idealism created for brain rape, for it is as unique as a sunrise or sunset to be appreciated in all ist glory a part of every story inwards and outwards infinately.

 

 

 

 

 

Pain

written by Jack T. Pennington

 

Whats there to

explain

 

we got our reasons to

complain

 

lookin for others to

blame

 

wantin change

thinkin we playin

a game

 

nothin new still we want

fame

 

to smile and feel

tame

 

the hurt still

remain

 

not dead just stronger

holdin on a bit longer

 

through doin wrong

know whats proper

 

they look and stare

come in my trap and

get snared and scared

 

pain its there

always prepared

 

cause someone

dared

 

step over that line

and time

 

came and went

but I am still bent

 

out of shape

bein real to the

fake

 

King to the snake

wisdom in the name

 

stealin fate

breakin hate

 

Doin it with my trade

in death we fade

just another human trait

 

Pain is nothing and

still great

 

Meaning in movement

Pain

 

Keeps healing in the game

water in the rain

life in frame

and

 

living that can

sustain

 

 

 

 

"Its all in a Handshake"

written by Jack T. Pennington

 

When we are happy to

see each other we hug

one another whether

sister or brother

 

when business doeth a

long breath our hand

are solemn away pointed

under our breast

as if in action against

the coming test.

 

When enemy in front of

stomach holding gut having

to have guts to touch

palm upwards perhaps a pull

all to lull a false

picture or draw a fist

for sure

 

A kiss or flurry of

them like doves

climbing the skies

all whence with

glittery twinkle eyes

even where love lies

in these midst it tries.

 

Its all in a handshake

even though that is

primitive and truly a

mistake passing of hands

like money, an idealism

standing for something

fake.

 

 

Wonder what I am, the copy test man, into your consciousness I plunge and whence read you understand that I am not only in your head.

"No need for a shield, because dragons, in this day and age don't breathe fire; only fake words. Dragons don't attack they throw paper money at your soul."
