Summary:
Another from the vault. This one is kinda to the point. Hopefully I can get caught up, and write some new stuff! Appreciate you. - Damian DeadLove

Everything’s going up in smoke tonight

Temperature is rising from the fire below

Speaking in curses to mask such delight

While momentum has started to plateau

 

Positive thinking can only lead one so far

Losing ground to a pack of assorted lies

On the face of fear it’s grown quite bizarre

Tired of living this life built on compromise

 

Everybody’s wired on opinions from fools

Mass confusion intended to keep control

Propaganda is used by all corporate tools

As a means to prosper off the human soul

    2. This one took me somewhere…the smell of sulfur & the rising burn of hell beneath the feet. All I can say is, they spread their propaganda but nothing’s stopping us from spreading truth. Who knows what could happen when enough voices shout it? Your vault must be a gold mine, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Keen observation skills and a great sense of smell, you possess there. There is nothing stopping us from spreading the truth, it’s all I strive to do. My writing is so steeped in exposing the truth, even as a young writer, once I found my calling I knew it. So you can count me in. The vault has some good stuff in there, it also is the resting place for some not so good writes. In all honesty, I’m a hoarder I don’t even through my worst stuff away. Some have been known to be retooled and rereleased, others can’t be saved, but they tell my journey as a writer. I am also sentimental. I still have my first notebook of work, from when I was 15 years old. And it was terrible. lol. Appreciate you.
