Poetry by Brian37 (poems by an atheist)
Offline I post all over the web, but I want a back up in case my computer or one particular website goes down.
I have decided to edit this post because I do not like giving people the wrong impression. I cannot read Shakespeare to save my life. I just remember this one line from act 5 scene 5 and put my own spin on it. I've had to explain this over and over so here I decided to put that in this post so there is no more presuming what I know or don't know. But the plot of MacBeth is the old lesson, you can have everything and nothing at all at the same time. And how did all that cruelty serve you in the end? But I do not like play summeries calling him a Nihisist, because it is possible to not do what he did, and accept life as being finite, and sitll have morals without religion.
NEW EDIT 9/19/22 I got pissed at myself that I was scared to read MacBeth, so tonight, I forced myself to read it online. Now mind you, I did not understand it line for line, but basically Macbeth was an assdhole who murdered his way to the top, and did not believe the 3 witches prophcies. He murdered Duncan and had Banquo murdered. Banquo's ghost haunts Macbeth. And made the grave mistake of attacking McDuff's family and killing them(If I am reading this correctly) But Lady MacBeth has a guilty conscience and kills herself, upon finding out Macbeth basically says that life is not worth living and he should go down with a fight anyway, but refuses to fight Macduff face to face and Macduff kills him as the hero. ( I SERIOUSLY read the entire play every line, tonight. I even know where the famous line "double double, toil and trouble". comes from. The three witches, basically saying "look out Macbeth" your ass is in trouble.
So basically the moral of the play, don't be a fucking asshole when trying to get to the top, or "the bigger they are the harder they fall". Reminds me of the movie Scarface and all the shitty things Tony did to get to the top and all for not. But Sosa in that case was not a good guy either.
QUOTE WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE MACBETH:"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Here is my spin on that wonderful and profound line:
Out, Out brief candle, By Brian37
To-deities, and to-gods, and to-God
Creeps in this petty tyrant from day to day
Until the extinction of humanity new ones will be invented
And all our yesterday's Gods have been created by fools
The way to tribal death. Out out brief myth
Claims are but a walking shadow, a poor reflection
That struts our narcissism upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by the credulous, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.

Just like Trump, dodge the actual point and make shit up.
You deserve the attention of the world. You'd get blasted by everyone so hard your head would spin. Every single one of your heroes would denounce you as an insane retard who's just as blustery and full of lies as Trump, but without anything to show for it. The proof that Brian is useless garbage lies in the fact that Brian is identical to Trump in every aspect of import, while Trump is rich and running for office while Brian is poor and lives with his mommy.

Road Trip, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
The tapestry
Of the Illiad
Media and Gilgimesh
Of Oedipus too
Of Hogwarts and Jedis
It has to be said
Prophets and saviors
Will also be dead
It churned inside
Long ago
To the surface
Before it left
A burning outpost
At the ege of the spiral
The real epic journey
Is what we should value
A cosmic hurricane
From one end to the other
It's trip has been
Around far longer
Just one of these cars
Takes that time
100,000 years
At the speed of light
And here we are
Swords and selfishness
Not wanting to face
It's all we have
Not that I can
Or anyone should
Blugeon the other
To get what we want
Conquests outdated
No room to expand
A priority shift
Should be at hand
To know our place
In this context
That all of this
Was not put here for us
Tell them photons
On which we depend
Plant's photosynthesis
Producing the air we breath
Your road trip much longer
Than the stories we conjure
We can do much better
To extend our ride further
The final epic
We shoud accept
Is that this is
The only home we have

Fuck you! Don't equate me to that sicko and weren't you the one who said he was smarter than me"? Which is it man? Is he the good guy or bad guy? Make up your fucking mind.
He's the bigot. He's the fear monger. He's the demagogue. I have no interest in creating a godless utopia, by law or violence, but yea, if I can convince through debate or ridicule that you don't need a religion, yes, I will employ that. Blasphemy is NOT the same as religiously justified violence.
You know that. I am not calling for mass deportation of my fellow humans. I welcome any non violent human here, Mexican or Muslim or Hindu or Chinese. That still does not make every claim a person my claim true. And claims as ideas do not deserve blind value nor do they deserve to be free from gettiing picked on. Now, asshole, if you are so insistant on equating me to that jackass, and if you want to paint yourself as the bigger man, fine, then put up or shut up yourself. Because you've been taking all sorts of swipes at me for years now. Cant have it both ways moron. If you are going to verbally take punches at me then don't be a whiny snot when I punch back verbally only. Now, unlike Trump, I would NEVER imply anyone physically harm my fellow human, not even you.
I am not calling for a ban on war refugees. You like theists get butthurt when someone offends you. No you fucking brat, I am not even interested in silencing you or physically harming you. Again, this all started because I didn't kiss your ass.
You need to grow the fuck up.

No fuck you.
Don't be exactly like that 'sicko' and I won't. But you are so I will. You are exactly like Trump. An uneducated, bigoted, retarded, egotistical maniac with no solid grasp of reality. You could be brothers.
He is. Millions of Americans believe him. Noone believes you. You are both wrong, but he not only doesn't live with his mommy, he has convinced other idiots to follow him. Something you can't ever do, because you're an even bigger asshole than Trump is. Even Bill Maher has said Trump is a nice guy when you take away the camera and the podium. You're always an asshole to everyone.
So are you. Excepting #3 of course, you aren't smart enough to be a demagogue.
Bullshit. You hate theists as much as Trump hates immigrants. You have advocated violence on multiple occasions.
You can't.
The rest of your post is just repetition of lies you've been spouting for months or years and I've already proved it dozens of times over.
Trump is better than you. Grow up.

"Mahjong" By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter).
Somtimes
At the breakfast place
Mom and I play
Table top football while we both wait
She anticipates her gyro
I and so do I
She double taps
On all her tries
Grin she does
She knows the rules
Things have changed
Since I was in school
Expected she did
When I was a kid
To always sit up straight
And always be serious
That never meshed
With me at all
I was sensitive
And wanted to goof
But now we are older
We've grown much closer
I love that change
I see in her
Every so often
My cell will ring
A brief pause
After I answer
"You win Win Win WIN WIN"
Is what she plays
At the end of Mahjong
Gives me a smile each day
I want to make that
My ring tone
For every time
I answer my cell phone.

"Hoboken, Mahjong Part Deux", (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
There is a small town
North of my mom
She likes to shop
I hate to go
One lane each way
Mom and pop signs
Mismatched in size
Heavy traffic, hardly aesthetic
"Take me there"
I roll my eyes
To understand
Here's the inside
Twas an old toon
Sappy and cute
Bugs stumbled on
A lost penguin's persuit
"Where is your home"
Bugs did not know
Consulted an encylopedia
And what do you know
"SOUTH POLE!"
Bugs discovered
To his horror
Lots of ground to be covered
But dutifly so
He made the trek
Trudged the penguin
To his homestead
But a upon arival
The penquin did cry
In the form of ice cubes
"What now?" Bugs inquired
The penquin prodeced
A circus flyer
"Hoboken NJ"
Preforming was his real desire
So now you know
What's in my head
"Take me there"
When she asks.
"Hoboken, I'm dying"
To borrow Bug's line
I'll take you for jellybeans
Anytime
Jellybeans?
Not in the toon
Is it about Reagan
NO, nothing to do
Nothing to do
With anything at all
But to get a smile
Out of my mom

He he he, keep it up asshole, you suffer the same selection bias and sample rate error on par with delusional theists. This chidish bullshit all stems from me not kissing your ass. Get your GPS fixed because the road to "give a fuck" isn't here.

Brian repeats his errors in the false belief that attempting the same tactic in the same scenario will somehow eventually lead to a different result. In reality, he just proves how stupid he is. Lmfao. Just like a theist in every way.

Bicycle Factory, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
John looked puzzled
On the assembly line
Consulted the manual
About the part's place
"Where does it go?"
He asked his co worker
Sarah responded
"I'll look in my manual"
"Insert bolt A
Into bar B"
John responded
"That's not what I see"
"My manual says"
Sarah cut him off
"You have the wrong one
"Mine is our boss"
"That's not right
This one says
Do it this way
Or we shall fight"
Then all the workers
Divided in unions
Picked up wreches
And threatened each other
"DO IT MY WAY"
"It says so here"
"I have the right manual
You better beware!"
The riots started
On the factory floor
Broken bones
And bloody lips
And two floors up
An empty executive office
Unoccupied
There was no boss
The bikes inconsistant
They all looked different
The workers groveled
For the boss's attention
"You're on my side
Pick my union
You gave me the right
To beat them into submission"
No quality control
The output suffered
Bikes missing spokes
Others no seats
But the different unions
Had the best virtue
Loyalty to
The one true manual
The factory floor
In stubborn crimson
The infinite riots
Would not convince them
That office is empty
It should be obvious
After all this time
The riots don't stop
He could if he wanted
Adress you all
Without the confusion
And make it clear
"Manditory meeting
At 5 pm
All the workers
Must attend"
But the CEO
Never shows up
To end the riots
Between the unions

Nope, I don't have fictional invisible friends. And for all the criticism and blasphemy you've done, you should have "hypocrite" tatooed on your forehead. I'd say murdering people over claims you can't prove and old books written in a scientifically ignorant past is repeating the same behavior expecting different results.
There once was a poster named Vastet,
A jealous and petty asshat
Has nothing to add, he's just mad
Because I didn't kiss his ass
Boo hoo, poor you.

Brian tries to lie, but we all know the truth. Everyone Brian speaks to is an invisible 'friend' with opinions and views that don't belong to the actual person he's talking to (or about). Brian will never be anything but a theist.

You Need A Time Out, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
You do it in the classroom
You do it in the car
Even in the movie theater
Everywhere you are
Your parents feed you sweets
Thousands of years ago
Making you violently hyper
Kicking the backs of seats
Sent to detention
From biology class
Kicking the backs of seats
While others value facts
You sit in the back
Delusional entitled driver
Kicking the backs of seats
Ready to crash the car
Dare we even try
To enjoy a movie
You kick the backs of seats
Wanting to censor disagreement
You're tantrums would not matter
If it were not for the shatter
Of all the blood splatter
From kicking the backs of seats
In the candy isle
You shout at highest volume
You'll kill the other kids
To have that sugar high
Kicking the backs of seats
Proof of insecurity
That you have yet to grow up
Give up on old absurdities
Then you get upset
When somone turns around
The adults in front of you
Demand you tone it down
Stop kicking everyone's seat
You don' have to go away
Just stop throwing fits
Everytime you don't get your way

"Snakes In Your Eyes", By Brian37(AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter) An ode to Margo Price.
Oedipus was warned
Yet still ignored
The Kochs on top
The Orange man too
Mr Hanauer
One of the few
Is warning the plutocrats
Of pitchforks overdue
The Price is right
Margo's insight
Investing in war
Humanity's blight
They get on that jet
But alwayas forget
Coach or first class
This ride is it
Diamonds don't feed
All the oil we drill
Drug prices go up
It's marketing shrill
There's only one class
It's always been
Put them in their place
So we can begin
So we can begin
To help those in need
To better the planet
To end selfish greed
(end)
Thank you Margo Price, when I first heard your song "About To Find Out" I nearly cried, and still want to give you a hug. You represent the best empathy in humanity, like Woodie Guthrie

Cell Towers and Road Work, Mohjong Trice By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
This quite a bit
More serious
For I don't want
Our moments to quit
You are my lifeline
Nobody else
Would do for me
What you do at my age
And beyond that
Yet another trip
Up to Duke
For your annual checkup
We'd pass tall cell towers
You know I hate hights
You'd joke with me
Go change the lights
We'd pass road construction
Orange and white barrels
One was tipped over
A child's voice you projected
"Poor barrel
Someone help me
Pick me up
Don't leave me be"
Further down
One in islolation
In the same voice
"I'm lonely and have no friends"
As great as that is
We still argue
Like Howard on Big Bang
Does with his mom
We don't hold grudges
We never will
I wish you would
Put your health first
When you raise
Your voice to me
For putting things
In the wrong place
That I can handle
And when you do
I know you are
Your normal self
I want more jokes
So take care of yourself
Listen to others
When it comes to your health
I want you to yell at me
Over stupid things
So please listen to others
When you have surgury
Don't get ahead
Of your self
Take your time
And slow down
I want you around
To yell at me
That is always
Temporary
I want those cell towers
I want those barrels
I want more Mohjong
I want our quarels
Yes Felix
I am your Oscar
And I want you
Around as long as possible

Never The Right Time, By Brain37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
No you do not
Have a monopoly
On any event
Even national tragedy
You pulled this crap
On 9/11
Nearly 3,000
Not all of them Christian
Some dare to blame
A tornado or hurricane
As the punishment of God
And we're expected to refrain
A child gets molested
Butchered and dumped
We question your prayers
After events of such
Just like Newtown
The NRA
"Now's not the time
For this debate"
And now a Saint
Will be laid to rest
A fender bender
Fight lead to his death
"We'll pray for him
And his wife who survived"
And someone argued
"Now is not a good time"
Never seems to be
Ever a good time
They hide beind
Tragedy
Yet when the skeptic
Suffers the same strife
When they lose a loved one
We are still expected to be quiet
It is not your mourning
I object to
Certainly it is
What we all do
You've spent your life
"warning" or "threateng"
Even outside this
Tragic event
That the only way
We can be saved
Is if we find God
Before it is too late
How dare you
Preach and sell
Acting as if
We don't feel pain too
When my mom has health issues
Or my best friend
A cant speak my mind
Even then
EVEN THEN
In my moment of pain
I cannot say
'There is no god, go away"
If in person
Face to face
If on private property
Yes refrain
I'm not talking
At all about that
I'm talking about
Any news event
No you don't
Get to silence me
Commenting on
Any major story
Prayer did not
Stop Hebdo
Prayer did not
Save that player
Yes it is tragic
Nobody wants it
But even in death
There's no magic to it
Do not use
Freedom of press
To set up taboos
Even in death
You own no patent
You have no right
Even in death
To monopolize
Even upon
My own dimize
After I'm gone
Peolpe will cry
But here's the thing
I wont be alive
To hear any offending
About my life
Why should I care
Not that I could
After I am dead
Who would you hurt?
Of course in the moment
Face to face
You'd hurt those who mourn me
In that private setting
But outside of that
In a public event
Nobody owns
The right to silence
To silence others
To set up taboos
Even when
It's not about you
Even when
It's just about logic
Lacking of evidence
And nothing personal
Never a right time?
I disagree
When it comes to news
We are all free.

He Gave Me The Bird, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Look Mr cardinal
I know you don't know better
I know you're simply
Doing your thing
But at 12:30 am
Outside my window
Singing
As loud as you can
It's jarring dude
You woke me up
I know you want to get laid
I get it
But 12:30am
I put on my shorts
Went outside
And shook the tree
Shook the tree
I thought you were in
But you smart little booger
Were in the next one
You shut up for a second
But I went inside
And you went back
To singing again
Dude, I get it
You want to get laid
But damn it dude
You were louder than my TV
None of my pounding
On my wall
Or shouting at you
Worked at all
I felt like George
On the treadmill
"JANE STOP THIS CRAZY THING"
Your singing was driving me insane
Oh and you crickets too
You sneaky fucks
Hide and chirp
Chinese water torture
Dude, I know you don't know better
I know it is spring
I know you want to get laid
But damn it, I'm trying to sleep!

The Great Escape, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Your prison cell
Escaped your rock
Your Alcatraz
Storm drain you found
Cleaver you
Figured out
Of James Bond legend
Inky's plot
You're the toothpaste
In the tube
And squeze yourself
Through tiny holes
Whatever your beak
Can slip through
Your body follows
Egg sucked into the bottle
Yes you are now legend
Making worlwide news
But some of this reporting
Is missng something
The romance of freedom
I think is lost
To the reality
Of the drain's possible contents
Pollution and objects
Within it's path
Could get it sick
Or get it stuck
Is this really
Another Nemo
Or simply humans
Projecting again
Inky,
For your own sake
I hope you made it
All the way
But I'm picturing
In this process
An episode of the Simpsons
And Lisa's trip
Through a nature walk
Where she encounters
An articulated chipmunk
She procedes to talk
She smiles and chats
Thinking happy thoughts
Nature is wonderful
Then she moves on
But does not see
The owl swoop down
Behind her back
The chipmunk gone
Oh we laugh
It is a cartoon
But this escape by Inky
From Alcatraz
Was very real
And why we'd like to think
Inky made it
All the way
What about
All the dangers
That may have dwelled
In that drain?

Better Get Macco, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Earl Scheib
Is willing to hide
With hollow Bondo
The rusted lies
The transmission
Of the used car
The naked assertion
Of a magical ignition
You cling to that rust bucket
With your theology
In front of the lot
Slim tall flailing pulpit salesman
Oh you've restored it well
With fresh paint
Buffed waxed
With elaborite tripe
Better get Macco
To hide your bad logic
Thats all you can do
To sell your old junk
Your loud shouting adds
Of doomsday
Buy this car
See me on Sunday
Yes you are slick
With your dirty tricks
But on the skeptic
They simply don't work
Your MSRP
Is still antiquity
That dotted line
I will not sign
I know too much
To buy your sales pitch
The rust remains
I see through your paint job

Pipsweak, By Brain37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Thanks alot Neil
You kicked the dog
The little kids love
You big meany
That farmboy
With his telescope
Didn't find it
Just so you could demean it
Who do you think you are?
You made it leave the big boys
Then you have the nerve
To step foot in their hometown
I saw you in that barber's chair
Lost your nerve
When he put the razor
To your face
What did that dog
Ever do to you
For you to down grade it
To a dwarf?
You kicked a pipsqueak
Not a pitbull, not a rottweiler
A Chihuahua
You enemy of Disney
I saw your arrest photo
You deserve it
You big meany
You made the children cry
Ball bearing and so what?
It's round damn it, round!
And all it wanted to do
Is hang out with it's bigger friends
You big meany!

Ferret Face, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Hyper nationalistic
Blindly patriotic
Blaming refugees
In war they try to flee
But your mistress Margarate
Exists everywhere
The Imams who control Iran
Bibi's carpet bombing plan
Mobilizing the fear of Ted
Armies of their gods have plans
Selling religious tribalism
Hospitals and graveyards fill
Frank is on a Cruz
Condemning gays excused
Their equal rights refused
Giving doctors needless work
Must we always see
Another as our enemy
Something is wrong with that
Humanity is all we have
Go away Ferret Face
In in your uniform
In whatever holy clothing
You seek to glorify war
May the right wing die
Armies they all have
Suposse all sides try
Humanity's common plight
Go away Frank
Where ever you exist
Blind worship of the state
Or of any god we must resist

"Terminator", By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Skynet never existed
Your time machine
Is all in your brain
Reason you've resisted
Your magic programer
Has a variety of names
And the underword and hell
It needs threats to sell
The cosmic hero
Needs a ground villian
Just like John and Sarah
Need the Terminator
Naraka is where you're punished
With endless Avici
Langusining for eternity
Some hells have a purgetory
And whence Buddhism arose
The similar penal codes
Exist in the land of Ghandi
Like the code of Hammurabi
In the land of New Deli
In a time long ago
It's laws had particular punishments
For everything you did
Detailed accounts of hell
Garuda Purana sell
Punishments for sins
Are the stories that it tells
In other parts of the world
The same stories are told
The cyclical battle
Between the light and darkness
A god of death they had
In the Aztec world
Mactantchtli is the name
Goddesss Tlazolteol caused carnal sin
The world of darkness
The land of the rising sun
Yomi is the destination
Where all the living end
Niether a paradise
Or a threat of hell
Yomi many believe
Is a gloomy state of limbo
Yomi-no-Kuni
The land of the underground
Vs Takama-ga-hara
The floating bridge of heaven
Up and down it is
Sky vs ground
Bible and Quran
Are simply different versions
There is no Terminator
Without John or Sarah
You cant have a hero
Without a super vilian
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

Ok Tough Guy, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Yes you can
Assert your power
Impress everyone
At the top of the tower
Oh how conceted
And short sighted
It's temporary success
In cosmic time
Can the rich man
Survive sub zero temps
Can the holy man
Survive scoarching heat
Can the dictator
Survive 300 degrees fahrenheit
Can the Prime Minister
Survive minus 458
Oh how tough you are
With your tribal wars
Temporary succes
And still ignore
Long ago
And long before
A creature so small
Beats you all
Microscopic
Found in dew
It's been around
Longer than you
Cretaceous/Paleogene
Was the first disaster
Where lots of life
Did not go on after
Triassic/Jurassic
Catyclysm faced too
Even more life
Ended too
Permian/Triassic
Life got hit
By another bullet
And that was it
Late Devonian
Took more out
But this tiny guy
Kept going on
Ordvician/Silurian
Did as well
Reduce the gene pool
But it did well
Still haning out
In morning dew
Tardigrades
Outlast you
So pontificate
And pound your chests
Over religion and boarders
And politics
All you tough guys
Have nothing on it
The water bear has survived
5 mass extinctions

"Take A Bullet", By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37)
You've been arround
For millinia
With different names
And changing weapons
And he sits up there
With folded arms
As you gleefully murder
For your different clubs
You'll take a bullet
To protect Jesus
You'll take a bullet
To protect your Mosques
You'll take a bullet
To protect the Wailing Wall
And your bronze age books
One and all
Is that all you've got
Is divine brawn
Mr Graham, Bibi
Mr Imam?
You're all willing to die
For what you believe
So where is this
Lasting peace?
I don't see it
In the slightest
All I see
Is needless violence
This three headed monster
Is the same King
The god of Abraham
Demands more kiilling
Anti intellect
Anti science
Take more bullets
Create more violence
Is this the best
Your gods can do
Get you to kill
Till our planet is through?
Take your bullets
And bronze age logic
And your tribalism
And burry it.
Nobody is
Going anywhere
But no more death
Over bronze age logic
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

"Orange Colostomy Bag" By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
His vile bile
Is all he has
Of no substance
Of no class
Jerry Springer
It' all an act
Selfish narcissist
Orange colostomy bag
Mexicans are rapists
Vets are losers
Periods and penis size
Are his best moves
Loves the word "Crooked"
With all his failures
Stakes, airlines, and a "university"
He's being sued over
His base is base
Franklin and Hegee
Fox and the GOP
Doomsday loons and science deniers
It would be laughable
If he were not running
If he were a mere nut
On the street corner
A peddler of fear
No one should fear
The orange colostomy bag
Speaks out of his rear
He's gas on the fire
Republicans lit
Same demagoguery
Same old bullshit
He cant win on substance
He's got no policy
Forgien or domestic
Its a game you see
"I know you are
But what am I"
The schoolyard bully
Is what the sane see
The skunk in a suit
Looks in the mirror
Masturbates over himself
Thinking he's better
Orange Colostomy Bag
Has no business
Holding our highest office
Or even being dog catcher
Your vile bile
Is the real stench
Orange colostomy bag
Will lose in the end
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

Hanna Is Not Montana, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twiter)
Everyone knows
How it goes
At the end of the year
Inspection comes due
If you dont
The bubble gum lights
In blue and red
Might ticket you
So I procrastinated
Like many do
Looking for
An inspection overdue
I'd been to this place
In years past
But the guy said
The time he did not have
So he pointed out
Down the road
Another place
Where I could get it done
"A country mile"
Is so true
It isn't a block
For for me and you
I left his place
The NASCAR pit
Oil cans
On dispay
But he knew me
From years prior
All the inspections
He'd done before
"I cant do it
But Barnet's can
Inspect your van
Lickity split"
So I left
Down the road
In hopes the inspection
Would be done
Followed his directions
But almost got lost
Turned around and breifly stoped
Asked for directions that got me there
When I approached
I looked to my left
A two bay garage
Out of Deliverance
But my van needed inspection
So I pulled in
Gas pumps not in order
I thought I was in the third world
Chainsaw massacare
Is all I could think
Desparate for my inspection
I still pulled in
Dusty driveway
Anologue pumps
Spider web glass
Covering them
I step out of my van
And walk into the lobby
Expecting a guy
In a butcher's smock
I suddenly look down
At the faded tile
And veiw a PARROT
Seem to be two feet tall
Huge beaks
Those things have
I decided not
To make sudden moves
Accross the faded tile
It scampered to me
I was thinking about his beak
And what it could do to me
I sat there froze
Not moving an inch
Just like a dog
You don't know
But it warmed up
Very quickly
Rubbing my leg
Like my cat does
Paced back and forth
Between me and the lady
That needed an inspection
Who came in before me
The owner came in
But I did not notice
He had more birds
On his premises
Hanna was
The parrot's name
The mechanic
Mistook him for a girl
The owner told him
To go back to his cage
So that he could
Get his work done
A pink/white hew
Were his feathers
We played a game
Of twist our necks
Why the name Hanna
Well, just like my cat
If you want to determine sex
You must ask a vet.
Turns out Hanna
Was not the only pet
At the place
I got my inspection
I had totally missed
The room in the back
Behind the office
With more cute birds
And even when
I pulled in
Had totally missed
The Parrot on the pump
I spent my time
Talking to Hanna
Tilting my head
As he did the same
Hanna turned out to be
Part of a suplement
Pet store to make up
For a two car garage

I'ts My Chair Too, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Listen you
You furry squatter
Take up all the space
Thinking it's only yours
Complain
When I nudge you
To sit down
At my computer
And spraw accross
The entire bed
Leaving me
With no space
Listen Mr
I don't mind sharing
But it is not
Solely yours
It's my chair
It's my bed
I don't mind
Sharing it with my friend
Silly little fusser
Meowing at me
As if you own
Everything

Neither, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Take the elevator up
To the top floor
And here is what
You are in for
No pain
Or so they claim
Eternal bliss
And happiness
How is it me
If thus the case
If I cant feel
What I did?
If I can't
Mourn up there
If I can't
Think for myself
If I can't
Choose to leave
If I can't
Question or think
If all I do
Is praise one being
And never get bored
Is that me?
The other "option"
Is not corrective
An act of revenge
Not of justice
Eternal pain
And for what?
Even the mere infraction
Of picking the wrong club
Neither are
Appealing to me
The good news is
We don't have to worry
The fictional elevator
Has no floors
No penthouse party
No basement to dwell
They're mere motifs
Of tribal kingships
Where loyalty was rewarded
And dissent was punished
How evil these constructs
Of heaven and hell
Two prison cells
To shackle oneself
"Obey me or else"
Is not by consent
It is not love
Not one bit
The fictional elevator
Has no floors
No penthouse party
No basment to dwell
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

50 Sent, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Tie a bloody ribbon
Around the old NRA
Its been decades since
Reagan and Brady
If you talk about us
Get off the bus
And don't put the blame
On me
Neat little shell game
You worshipers have
Avoiding the flooded market
The NRA protects
It's the mentally ill
It's the terrorists
But we never blame
Our flooded market
Its the criminals
Who don't obey laws
Well neither do speeders
But we still have speed limits
Car accidents
Kill far more
As if we shouldn't
Multi task at all
Other bad stuff happens
So forget about this
Collateral damage
Is the excuse they give
They bemoan rights
As if we still lived
In an age of muskets
Is all we still have
Imagine if
We still had today
The same regulations
For air flight
If Boing
Didn't have to obey
Modern standards
But Wright Brothers way
Do me one favor
You right wing nuts
Dont fucking claim
It's about rights
Its about
Selfishness
The same doomsday prattling
Religion sells best
If you cant have
All the laws you want
If you cant have
A free for all market
If someone else
Dares to vote
If they seek
To reduce gun deaths
Tony's ribbon
Isn't yellow
It is red
Of Montana's value
Hostage taking
And racketeering
Having nothing to do
With problem solving.

Allergies, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on Facbook and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
He knew the allergies
Of 500 kids
Legal carry
If white no worries
A biker gang at a bar
Has a shootout
Cops show up
The perps aren't shot
Roof shoots 9
He makes it to jail
A guy with CDs
Fairs not as well
5 more dead
Good guys with guns
It should be obvious
What is going on
There is an allergy
Our nation has
One industry and lobby
That set up this
Pop pop pop
Profits profits profits
Bodies of blacks
And that of cops
Glocks and 9s
And AR 15s
The NRA
Shouts with glee
More death more violece
Make more excuses
Body bags increase
For greed and selfishness
I know what can
Cure our allergy
Stand up to the NRA
And the GOP

Half Staff, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on Facebook, and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter)
Pow, pow, pow
Flag goes down
Thoughts and prayers
And moments of silence
The work place safety
Sign in the break room
"Its been...... 0 days
Since"
Flag goes back up
Breifly, only breifly
Pow pow pow
It gets lowered again
P 90 X
Insanity workout
Pow pow pow
It goes up and down
Like chin ups
And push ups
Healthy profits
Violence sells guns
We've got a fix
To stop the death
Prayer and thoughts
Are all it takes
Flag goes up
For a breif time
Until a dead cop
Or dead black man
Until another
Orlando or Newtown
Pow pow pow
Half staff again
If prayer works
Just add more guns
Seems to work well
Which is why nobody's complaining
Up and down
The flag goes
Like jumping on
A trampoline
Pow pow pow
Prayer prayer prayer
Thoughts thoughts thoughs
Guns guns guns
Flag goes up
Flag goes down
Flag goes up
Flag goes down
Bodies pile up
Morgues fill
Guns and prayer
What a thrill
We must love
Lowering that flag
Otherwise
We'd take action.

Black and Blue, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on Facebook and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter)
Don't hand me
This shit the only way
Blacks don't end up dead
Is simply obey
Baltimore looms in Grey
Died in police custody
Bland is accepting
This every day
Chokeholds
Of the unarmed
Over fucking cigarettes
Another black life gone
I've been faced
As a teen playing toy gun
Cop aimed his gun at me
I didn't end up dead
Another time
I was speeding
Angry for being pulled over
I threw my wallet at her
SHUT UP WHITES
AND FUCKING LISTEN
IT'S NOT IN THEIR HEADS
ITS OUR IGNORANCE!
We don't have
To have that talk
We don't have
To fear where we walk
How many Martins
How many Garners
How many body bags
Before we get tired?
Black lives matter
Is not anti cop
I can tell you
What it will take to stop
There is one party
Rooted in hate
Using coded language
"Thugs" is the way
And their friend
The NRA
Loves the fear
Between cops and society
Scare the crap
Out of everyone
Gun factories make profits
Off of tombstones
Black and blue
Should matter to you
End their obstruction
End the hate too
"Good guy's with guns"
Is a bullshit myth
5 innocent cops
Died despite this
Yet Dillon Roof
After shooting 9
Made it to jail
Breathing fine
The enemy is of blacks
Whites and cops too
Is America's gun fetish
Perpetuates doom

Symphony #15-9-38 In Prose, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on Facebook and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
I am an Ar-15 make love to me. I am a Glock with a big clip, love is easy to see. I am an Uzi which little girls will play, it's easy to love objects in a delusional way. I am a dad, who kills his son at a range, make love to me, I am a gun. I am a mentally ill soccer mom, I love guns and both my daughters are gone. What's not to love, about guns that spray? What's not to love, about death every day? Look at you, sexy metal, you're just an object, why do they quarrel? Let's pass a law, to make gun marriage legal, fuck the object, to breed some more. Don't you love the color red? Pay no attention to the body bags. I'll protect you to my death, even though, you're not living or breathing. True love is not between humans, the only true love, is that of a gun.

"Gun's Life's Matter" By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet On Facbook and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Cat on a black church Roof
Murders nine
That is fine
Rewarded with Burger King
There is a video
Of a white armed man
Sitting in a chair
Made it out alive
There is another
Of a guy shooting at his lawyer
Tackled by others
Who had no guns
Full bullshit jacket
It's a protection racket
"Gun's Life's Matter"
Protecting only profit
It's the black widow
White spider web
"Gun's Life's Matter"
Happy for the dead
Andy Warhol products
Just like soup cans
The flavors crome and black
Textured and pearl grips
We're so paranoid
It's gotten to the point
Where c4 justice
Is now replacing juries
Tail lights are excuses
For police abuses
It's not a Patch Of Blue
It's pitting me against you
Cleaver little game
Sell them all the same
Soup cans full of blood
Flavored blacks and cops
"Gun's Life's Matter"
It's a living Uzi
There should be a law
Against gun blasphemy
Cleaver little trick
Against each other you do pit
"Gun's Life's Matter"
Vile marketing
Doctors in ER
Are getting sick of you
Fuck your bullshit soup cans
We're standing up to you
No more black widows
No more spider webs
No more dividig races
We're tired of your shit
Take your vile soup cans
Stop killing blacks and cops
"Gun's Life's Matter"
Is worship of an ojbect
You have no fucking clue
What a "milita" meant
If you want to know
Look up Whisky Rebellion
Take your Snack Patriot logic
Shove it up your ass
We dont need anymore
Hyper Nationalism
Nobody wants to die
On any given side
"Gun's Life's Matter"
Is the NRA'S fucking iie

"If It Sounds Too Good" By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet On Facebook and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
The soothsayers
And Seers
Oracles
And prophets
Psychics
And Ouija boards
Homeopathy
Don't doubt them
Of holy men, old writings
Blindly beleive them
Don't ever dare
To even question
They are the fine print
In any contract
There to serve you
Payday loan or cell phone
They are the woman
Sawed in half
PT Barnum
Has the last laugh
You'd have me believe
The claims of antiquity
Don't thrive on the same marketing
Of infomercial TV
Deities remove stains
Get your carpet clean
Read the fine print
Before you subscribe to Dish
Oxi clean
In omni fashion
Get's the mouse on the wheel
To chase utopia cheese
Reverse mortgage
Is what religion is
Henry Winkler
Is a scam
You still own
Your brain
Until the bookmaker
Demands you pay
Racketeering
Is all the same
Be it old
Or oxy clean
If it sounds too good to be true
It probably is
And that is why
All gods are dead

Promenade, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on Facebook and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Wreched square dance
Repeats itself
Dosey Doe
All over the world
Mecca and Belgum
Orlando too
Stuck in the past
Voulez Vous
West not much better
A watered down mosh pit
Abortion doctors
And their clinics
On the waterfront
The wannabe contenders
Use holy books
As their weapons
It is justified
They know it is
Killing for Allah
And killing for Jesus
The washing machine
Cant remove blood stains
Agitate with superstition
Rinse and repeat
Thats you're Nice
And your uncle too
Your sister and mother
Humanity's tomb
The demagogue steps in
Tell you to counter
With the correct holy book
To end all the slaugheter
The French Open
Syria's Wimbledon
Bush's favorite philospher
Allowed him to win
The clay court
Lead to the truck
Instant replay
Traced in blood
Book vs book
They both justify
Wreched pramenade
They continue to die
A disgusting trophy
Humans seek
Over wooden rackets
That are antique

Scream If You Have To, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
She could not stand
On her own
But the doctors
Said she could go home
I knew better
Not the case
Guys in cubicals
Were making budget calls
The entire ICU
Heard me scream
"SHE'S IN NO CONDITION
AT ALL TO LEAVE!"
This setup we have
Empty the beds
Save the hospital money
Favor insurance companies instead
Normal it is
After surgury
For nausia and pain
To not want to eat or drink
Time is the cure
Not sending her home
To gain her strength
So she can be well
Therapy is needed
On top of that
For transfer ability
So she doesn't trip
If you're like me
Caring for elderly
Don't let them sweet talk
To empty the bed
Scream if you have to
Make them do their job
Your mom and dad
Are all you have
They kept her in
But I don't care
If I hurt their feelings
Or made them scared
It turned out
She was better off
Her vitals were fluctuating
In any case
After an adustment
In her meds
It seesm her vitals
Stablized
If she had left
I hazard to guess
What the outcome
Would have been
Scream if you have to
That's what I did
I love my mom
She's all I have

First He Came After, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
A modern Bravaria
Now called America
Has migrated here
Full of demagoguery and hate
First he came
After Hispanics
Accuse them of rape
Cattle car suggetions
The captured of war
In no way deserving
Of the sociopath's
Disgusting demeaning
Panders to those
Who swallow bigoted code
Black lives matter
Translates to "thugs"
He'd have us believe
He's for LGBT
Yet his running mate
Made laws that discriminate
It's not just Jim Crow
It is a combo
Of McCarthism
Demagoguery on show
Demonized judges
Blacklisted press
Another despot
Did that in the past
He's been praised
North of the DMZ
And admired Saddam's
Brutality
This evil script
Is for all to see
It's happened before
And nothing to repeat
That one man
May think it's compitition
But it is not
It is a path to distruction
There is only one thing
That can be done
Stand up to the bully
And shut him up.

First He Came After, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
A modern Bravaria
Now called America
Has migrated here
Full of demagoguery and hate
First he came
After Hispanics
Accuse them of rape
Cattle car suggetions
The captured of war
In no way deserving
Of the sociopath's
Disgusting demeaning
Panders to those
Who swallow bigoted code
Black lives matter
Translates to "thugs"
He'd have us believe
He's for LGBT
Yet his running mate
Made laws that discriminate
It's not just Jim Crow
It is a combo
Of McCarthism
Demagoguery on show
Demonized judges
Blacklisted press
Another despot
Did that in the past
He's been praised
North of the DMZ
And admired Saddam's
Brutality
This evil script
Is for all to see
It's happened before
And nothing to repeat
That one man
May think it's compitition
But it is not
It is a path to distruction
There is only one thing

Stand up to the bully
And shut him up.

Count The Trees, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
They took you back
To the ICU
Now that you're stable
Here's what I want for you
I want you to call me
Like you did today
The pep in your vioce
Your determination
I know your getting
Better when
You feel like eating
Lets hope you hold it in
I want you home
Where you need to be
I want you to do
Those silly things with me
I want our silliness
In the van
When we pass the golf courses
Make jokes we can
I shout "four"
You say 12
Then I subtract
To get back to "four"
Then another
Maybe 15
Or 2 or 10
I have to make it to four again
But if you repeat
Our unwritten rule
The same number
The game I win
Then we can
Shift it up
Move onto another
Inside joke
Our rual flat roads
Lined with pine trees
I love it when
You say "count the trees"
As if I could
While I am driving
You'll say anything
To get me laughing
In my attempt
I say 1 and 2
And 4 and 5
6 and 7 our smiles arise
You better get better
I know you can
I want more time
When we ride in the van
I want you home
With your friends
I want to take
You out again
I want to play
Those games again
Passing the golf courses
And counting the trees
I know you're strong
You are my pillar
You have to make it
I love you mother!

Twilight, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James RationalPoet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Your birthday
Rolls around again
Wanting for you
Many more of them
Such a cruel thing
For nature to do
To take them away
From wonderful you
But tis a path
A finite ride
Cherish the time
We are alive
Fight with your will
That evil twilight
Is no calming word
It gives me fright
Your absence
Would be a void I refuse to face
Fight with your will
To slow it's pace
Be that rose
Allways budding
In your mind
Always loving
I see the vaule
In the response of others
How thoughtful and caring
And always giving
Next year next year
And the year after that
I want you
As long as you can
Evil twilight
The reaper's friend
The clock keeps ticking
Regardless of whims
But do take solice
In one thing
If you have your mind
You can manage it
I've seen you battle
All those candles
Even though
Your body falters
Nobody knows when
But I do know this
Time spent with you
Is always the best
