On the Street, Middle-class World

 

On the Street, Middle-class World

 

On the street the worst thing they can do is take your life (so be it)

The middle-class world is worse, coz they’ll take your liberty.

Take away your mortal time. Evil you know. Con-trol. Under the guise of civilization. Hubris of Intelligence called process. Under Law.

Litigation washing its hands. Burn them all. Paper cranes. Chow brain.

But then you slept on a bed of nails last night & remembered it’s not as neat as this.

Criminals use similar ways to control & take away people’s liberty.

Organised crime is much like the state. Hierarchical & bureaucratic with its own prisons & surveilled life.

People hellbent in all echelons in preserving life & prolonging control & enslaving. For there’s profits to be made from living bodies.

So, potaeto, potahto, tomayto, tomahto forgive them each. Mother fucker. Don’t make a scene. Or they’ll forever lock away the key. And inject your brain with lobotomy. You’re under control. Officials cut the corpus callosum.

Human genesis is people eating one another. Human nature hasn’t changed at all.

Personally speaking I’d rather be cooked alive, than incarcerated. I think most would, if they thought about it.

But the china in our shops & homes is delicate & we must talk soft & watch our mouths.

Pick up sticks, up your arse, your snout.

Full moon tonight.

One for sacrifice.

The belief that one is enreasoned has desecrated millions of lives, father Adolf.

& I’ll boogie board my way out of here. Paper cup beer. Teetotaller Hitler. Scared of losing control.

Suicidal tendencies.

Empathy deficiency.

If he don't want life, "no one should have it."

WWIII.

& so I ran.

Into the bayonet.

With all my will.

Bash it out of my way.

It's the music of beings of clay, g'day. Cunt.

“I didn’t know!”

  “I didn’t know!”   Don’t get me wrong In a Two Party preferred system  I have no choice but to give preferences to Labor The Coalition are scum But Jacinta Allen, Victorian Premier Claimed in a Truth Telling Commission that she never knew about massacres Of Indigenous people in the state She’d never looked up The history of her country The history of the state she leads She’s Premier! She leads a department that ‘manages Indigenous affairs’ We are currently in the process of negotiating a Treaty What did she think happened to all the Aboriginal people?! They went up to live up the Magic Faraway Tree? “No one told me!” No one ever told me either I fuckin researched It was really easy Took 10 minutes There’s this new thing called the Internet & you search stuff up Like History A subject no longer taught in many schools past year 7 I deduced a lot from observing the place & how allergic we are of looking at ourselves ...

In a very unorthodox way

  In a very unorthodox way # (For Max Sometimes) In a very unorthodox way, I’m an Irish Catholic. Of course, in terms of Belfast politics that MEANS something. & while that maybe true – in Australia, for different reasons, as Fr Bob Maguire put it – when Mary first saw Jesus walking out of the tomb on day 3 of his death, she exclaimed “JESUS!!!” – the first time his name was used as a swear word. In that way of an irreverent joke, REVERENTIAL & ORTHODOX are not my way to the Sacred/Love*. For me – I’m not really into Theology – as Max Sometimes quoting me, quoting my mate Richard, quoting Bob Marley, quoting Rasta elders, said today “who feels it knows it.” & I believe that if I am to write my Mass/Symphony of Hope/Love, I must include at least one blasphemous hymn, else the vision depicted be simplistic, like George Handel’s Messiah. The Hope/Love represented or perhaps alluded to (if you prefer) must include genuine despair, dejection, transgression else it...

Though it made me a poet

Though it made me a poet   This is a superior microwave to the last if  everything has to be a competition I guess it does! In the Kafkaesque vortex Where one is trying merely to ask a question Instead one is sold something I’m monastic or have acute anxiety Anxiety is pretty cute Like a decapitated bleeding brain Covered in snails turned carnivore By the wrack & ruin of a child’s innocence The fist in the sister’s face The knife in the wall Did I imagine the latter, dream it or see it? Who threw it? Must have been the bowie Still life goes on So I went to school the next morning & got my mouth taped up For being a chatterbox Such is the life of a privileged 5 year old It made me a poet     Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.
