    No Kings

    hearts are broken thoughts provokin lies as clear as tongues 'let them eat tacos!' declares the king as his birthday parade gets rained on Trump shits on a plate calls it chocolate ice cream his supporters believe as they eat every word from the great divider getting in...

    • He’s just a fool on the hill…

      • Many of those. But he’s a special kind of fool. And those kind are the most dangerous.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Bravo!

      I marched yesterday in Phoenix. It was beautiful to see how many people turned out- there and around the whole country.

      • I live in a small red area. I have never seen so many people protest in this town. It gave me hope that maybe we can fight this.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Hell yeah, Nick. Powerfully penned my friend. This is so on point. Excellent write. Appreciate you.

      • I think a lot of people act like what’s going on is complicated. To me it’s pretty straight forward. We are being taken over. All the disagreements are just a distraction. I mean we always have disagreements, but Trump knows if you divide you can conquer. It’s sad that more people can’t see that.

        Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.

    • I actually didn’t care too much for politics before. I did vote but felt it was foolish to vote one sided. But yeah, after Trump the whole Republican party needs to reflect.

      Yeah, and that over sized suit with the tie. you can put him in a circus haha.

      Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Awesome poem Nick. Really cool image. I loved Ghost when they 1st arrived on the scene back in 2010. By 2015 I jumped ship. They were getting way to commercial. Debut is like a cross between Mercyful Fate and Blue Oyster Cult. Classic!

      • Everyone’s a critic haha. They are hit and miss for me. But I did really like Impera and songs like ‘Mary On A Cross’ and ‘The Future Is A Foreign Land’. I’m drawn to things that are different even if it’s not perfection. I also don’t mind commercial as long as it seems like a natural evolution. I do wish the lead singer had better rang though.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

    For Granted

    it's the story they've warned us about since the beginning of time you can be born rich then die without a penny to your name and just because you worked hard doesn't mean you can't lose it all you can swear you're sound of mind but...

    • And you are right…Nothing is guaranteed in life. Powerful piece. Nice work.

      • Definitely. I wrote this a year or so ago after my uncle died. He was a man that worked all his life. Was someone that was financially stable, and overnight got dementia and lost everything. Didn’t even have a penny to his name when he died. Just made a lot of bad decisions and was stubborn when it came to preparing for tragedy.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Yes ,this sound advice. No one is promised anything so you should be happy for the now.

    • Brilliantly penned, Nick. This is an incredible write my friend, and all very true. To quote David Lee Roth: ” There’s not much distance between a pat on the back, and a kick in the pants!” Appreciate you.

    • We only get one shot for all we know so might as well do our best to enjoy each day of peace.

      Thanks so much for the read, friend.

    • Can’t take for granted the privilege we get even if there are daily struggles.

      Thanks for the read, friend.
