Venture

turn back,
never!

ur reluctance is beginning to piss me off
u are becoming an irritation
i was not created to exist [you shithead]
i was born to LIVE

i always take the chance
turn the corner
venture forward,
blind alleys are only blind
if not explored.
i’ve always emerged
from
wars
police torture
abusive parents
racism
victimisation
a broken heart and
tormented soul
to Continue

headlong i go
to face whatever comes
happy to take the chance

You take care of yourself
i need only my wits
to survive
the more dangerous the tighter
my reflexes become

without a challenge
i shrivel and die
i am nothing without a fight

taunting death is a familiar
pursuit;
pushing sanity and
risking injury
heightens the senses
and enlivens the spirit,
you turd of a thing.
how dare u even suggest
i take it ‘easy!’

but feel free to ease
YOURSELF into that
coffin u call a safe life.
i have things that need doing
places that need changing
minds that need training
and above all
a vile, murderous enemy
that must be DEFEATED

if ur not ACTIVELY assisting/participating
then YOU are a LIABILITY –
go now,
fuck off!

find urself a citizen slave
and shove ur nine to five
existence up your arse

where did u get the idea
i could be tamed, regulated
and domesticated, u crazy rag?
