† Re: Sex, Marriage, & Fairytales

You call yourself a poet?
Let us engage in spoken word warfare.
I’ll be the armageddon in physical manifestation,
you’ll be the soldier unarmed, defended only by your skin
and your salvation from sin.
Here’s a bullet from my weapon of mass destruction,
can your religion put off your damnation
when the projectile pierces your skin?
Will your deity accept your penance to free you from sin?
Fools, fools all around us.
Fools disguised as good samaritans, fools that act
as if their words were truth,
and all else are lies
but when your words are stagnant and redundant,
who would believe your amateur rhymes?

Only those who bathe in stupidity
would state that there is only one solution.
Don’t you realize it yet, pseudo-poet?
We, as humans, hold the key to our very salvation.
You say love is a fairytale and we all worship sex,
but your rhymes ain’t complex, they just lack context
because religion may be a fairytale to some.
Yet you deny them the freedom of choice,
you deny them of their voice
so here’s our united shout from the whispers you silenced.
Here’s the final blow
that will send you to your proposed maker.
If his existence is real,
then will he guard your idiotic endeavors?

Armorless warrior, you are but a fool in the eyes of god.
Striving to fight in a nonexistent crusade,
making those in limbo into disbelievers.
We are god. We are religion. We are the church,
we command our own legions.
We need not no book, we need not no deity.
We are feared by all, we are
humanity. 

† ‘Til divorces do them part.

I think marriage nowadays is nothing but a joke. I mean, look at Kim Kardashian. She manages to plan the most extravagant wedding in order to prove her riches, but when it comes to proving her undying love, it ultimately fails as she filed for divorce soon after that.

This is what I mean. I respect the value of marriage. Growing up and watching my parents continue to fall in love with each other and find the most smallest of ways to fall deeper into that emotional connection has really inspired me and has shaped me for the better. I know that marriage is a long-term committment that requires both individuals to be entirely sure that that is the person they would be perpetually bound to. A person that may have flaws, but their partner would look past it and redefine the term unconditional. I believe that marriage binds the souls of two people and a divorce destroys it. With that being said, I find it repulsive that our divorce rates in this modern day are so fucking high. I find it disgusting that heterosexuals are allowed marriages that they take so lightly when there are gay people truly in love, that would love to have a taste of what marriage may bring them. I find it extremely wrong and pathetic that this world has managed to scrutinize such a wonderful event and turn it into a joke.

I’d rather not marry. I have no intent to get married. My mindset is made up. I will only change this decision if someone is important enough… if someone is persistent enough to change my perspective. In making this a challenge, I know that I won’t make the same mistake as everyone else. I will not allow myself to rush into something as valuable as that.
