The New Normal [Today's News Poem, April 2, 2011]

The New Normal [Today's News Poem, April 2, 2011]

I thought that the average was something like grasping,
Something like murder and incest; torture and me.
I thought that because I could break, I was broken;
Born to a luck that I spurned because it's not fair.
And life is for idiots, error, repentance.
Life is not fair, so go quickly, even it out.
I've tried to exhaustion the rage and it failed me
Anger's the doorway to patience, love, compassion.
And normal's not average, it's more aspiration,
Noble and lie it's the mother goddess of hearth.
The lies do not bind us and babies aren't silenced
Shouting them down, nor by reason, terror—just love.

"there are many reasons to believe that measuring and reporting metrics of social mobility will be a meaningless task. Complete measures of social mobility, such as looking at the link between parental and children's incomes or parents' and children's education, take a lifetime to evaluate."

"A host of Asian performing artists have staged a three-hour charity concert in Hong Kong to raise funds for victims of Japan's earthquake and tsunami. "

They're There With Their Phantasmagoria [#twitterfoundpoem, October 30, 2010]
Tweets+Edits=#twitterfoundpoem

they're there. their
basic approach to Phantasmagoria
is delta normal. there's nothing wrong
WITH standard deviation,
but real Deviants are their favorites.
their fruity flavored wooden jesus head is real;
and look there! Phantasmagoria
will not be there anymore to listen.
they're just kind of making this up as they go now,
making this up as they Summon and kill....
summon and kill...summon and kill....
Mammon, Android jesus, and tribes
and tribes of delta normal Deviants
WITH standard deviation!!!
