Arguments in the Shower

Ode to Imaginary Arguments in the Shower Antonio Fielding

My Sanctum How I adore thee The domain of cheap candles ~fervent masturbation~, and boiling myself to perfection as I whine and whistle like a teakettle with the finest artisanal brew to be doused upon that bitch who cut me off during my commute As the scalding droplets imbued with God’s wrath inundate my flesh with arcane knowledge of how to belittle my enemies; my body becomes a channel. Funneling the headwaters into the inevitable cascade of cacophonous curses against different insults: like a snippy spritz of jealousy from a rando about how my kind of humor is a drag. The ecstasy I feel as I craft rebuttal after rebuttal to your now child-like remarks. The steam enveloping me in it’s loving embrace. The fan siphoning the pearls of rage away as they escape out into the night to hopefully drown them in some coincidental act of ultimate karmic justice. I feel my adoring fans, the apparitions I have created in my head to be my entourage of vengeance, offering their validating cries to pay recompence for the atrocities you cast upon me. As if I had deserved to be convinced that I needed to change myself for you. My victory lap begins as I conclude my argument with a deluge of vindications that will never be heard nor appreciated by them or anyone for that matter as I know that this same old story will continue. I will return to my shrine, heal my wounds, and tell you off once again. If only for a moment I could –speak my mind outside of this languid temple as free as a whirling tempest, but for now I will reside to soaking the sadness out of me in this sad puddle of tears.

United We Stand Andrea Garcia

Why is the world so different? Why always criticize?

Why care of the color instead of each other? Why destroy a kid’s dream because of his ethnicity ?

Do you have no empathy?

Why destroy the hopes of a little girl in her face? Instead of cheering her on like it’s a big race? I’ll do what I want I’ll say what I want Know thee can never control me I’ll fight for them too Together united we stand in front of you Those that have fallen rise Together we’ll love instead of despise

Just love no hate

We’ll be treated equally no more gates

No more hate No more violence No more criticizing

We’ll be known as one which is the human race Then a little girl came to me and asked What does thee see in me?

I answered I only see the sorrow that grows and the pain that does not go She looked at me with sadness in her eyes listen to her rhymes

Never fear what you cannot hear Never see what cannot be

Do not hate what you cannot bait but only love the one that almighty and great From that point in I opened my eyes just to see the greatness of life

What I cannot understand was how that little one knew that I despised what was not great and

full of hate

Because of her these words shall be heard I shall not rest until we fix this mess To communicate with one another To be united as one and to never just run Together we can do this Together we can overcome
