I like the human

 

I like the human

 

I like the human who’s for real

I ain’t into inflators

I ain’t into phonies

I ain’t into liars

But if you’re real

You can cry, spew, scream, have a psychosis, laugh hysterically, tell outrageous truths, it’s all good with me

I love the human

When it’s honest

I love the human

When it’s raw

I love the human

When it’s intimate

& not just people yelling at the crowd

Importantly, if you’re gonna freak

It’s gotta have some honesty

Some self reflection

Some self revelation

As long as you don’t touch me

Or threaten me

You can roll around on the floor

Flip out, whatever

I learned from a master

My psychiatrist

But I love the human

I love to hear real stories

I love to see people open & vulnerable

Man I’ve walked the street with tears flooding my face

Life is mental

& some people get bad cards dealt

& most good people suffer

& most bad people don’t

I like life

I want it raw

I want it real

Warts & all

No cover-up

So you’re always welcome

If you’re open

No matter in what state

I won’t be scared

As long as you ain’t mad at me

I ain’t mad at you

‘The Garden of Love’

  ‘The Garden of Love’ (after William Blake)   Some young punk Tryin to be ‘hard’ Pussyole! with his mate Said “no flowers!” I was holding some wildflowers To put in my vase at the apartment I asked him “why not?” He said nothing That’s right keep walking bish! To bloodclot! I don’t walk around defensive So I’m not quick to attack I’d rather they think about it themselves ‘Without flowers there is no life’ He dreams Try that on for size ‘You say “no!” to flowers & you say “no!” to life’ Echoed on the wind 'You can’t eat money!' Unity & Devision He hears across the wires 'Not that way!... ... why have you forsaken us?' He feels the ancestors   & again I am reminded of Blake’s ‘The Garden of Love’*   Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.   * The Garden of Love By  William Blake I went to the Garden of Love, And saw what I never had seen: A Chapel was built in the midst, W...

'Punk' Sociology (Participant Observation)

  'Punk' Sociology (Participant Observation)   I’m chilling back at home, now Needed a spliff This is in no way definitive I couldn’t see quite a lot even though I was near the front Once things came to a stand off I didn’t see much of ‘the enemy’ We were prevented from seeing one another Just the guttural roars of “BOO!” from the blood lusters at their front I saw the name of Jesus on a sign Which made about as much sense as the lot of nonsense Man I’d taken Eucharist in the morning prior Of a divided people Their upside down Aussie flags turned up the right way just after we were turned back down Collins St from the corner of Elizabeth Street & the capsicum spray – not too bad Young blokes love a stoush As do female inquisitors The Safran thing strange After his legendary decades & he was ‘shot down’ as a ‘Zionist’ for taking on the Fascists with his dynamic holy wit Very strange I grew up with partition Nothing intellectual about it It’s IN you Thoug...
