A blackout poem: BIRTHRIGHT Executive Order 14160–Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship By the authority of State Purpose a priceless and profound gift is repudiated solely based on race. The United States has always excluded from birthright persons born not subject to the privilege of a white father or mother. Under the auspices of the State it is policy that no government shall recognize …

true children of the Homeland. All agencies consistent with this order disrespect the public. Definitions mean nothing to the authority of the people United. By Aeden Romeyn @pyrophobicpoet

A blackout poem using Executive Order 14160. Birthright citizenship is not a right we’re willing to lose. #politics #protestpoetry #immigration #blackoutpoetry #politicalpoetry #donaldtrump #supremecourt #trumpvbarbara #humanrights

The tyrant signs
his name in green
forcing us to
recognize his power.

It is more important
now than ever to
keep the debit

“There will be no medals awarded for speaking truth now.”

RC deWinter’s "at the mouth of the tomb" is a fierce, apocalyptic meditation on power, decay, and truth in a broken world.

Disaster Capitalism While American tomahawks flatten Girls schools, you'll turn yet another blind eye Because the oil crisis Leading to the gas shortage From the impending war will mean Your Amazon package gets delayed By just a few days, which as an American Is completely Out-Of-The-Question So bury your head in your stock options And short the humanitarian efforts Because time is money, and money is war And war pays well (Unless you're dying for it)

Everybody scream. Every body rage. Blood on the stage. How can I leave you when you’re screaming my name.
They’re screaming our names. They’ll scream our names, twisted and tangled, into our deaths, way past our fame.

Litany for the Land America, Sweet America

I rewrote a political poem as a Dionysian sparagmos call-and-response litany (Cantor / Assembly).

It ended with: “Go vote, America.”

American Séance A man arrives armed and is shot dead. But the story does not end there. In seven restrained lines, “American Séance” by Tristan Robert Lange explores how unresolved scandal and conspiracy linger like a national ghost — haunting not just power, but belief itself.

🔥 NEW POEM DROP 🔥

Shot dead…
But the ghost lingers.

“American Séance” confronts the haunting of unresolved power, conspiracy, and cultural collapse.

Ares Blood splattered King Please channel your rage Take this plea Open-hearted, bare This blood within cries Too much innocence Too many lost Too many gone This is not a War You know this too Entrapment Underhanded Unworthy of honour Unworthy of name Strip these men of theirs Stop them from misusing your name Turn your rage upon them Defilers of Xenia No love in their heart There is no sweat and blood Only bitter broken tears Families torn, askew Mangled under the weight Of a thousand strong Pitchforks for Napalm Swords for untrained soldiers Children facing a hoard Give them your blessings Quell the massacre Protect the unarmed With your Shield of Bones

A plea to Ares, God of War

Hey you! Rebel now within the lines! Rage against the machine, but only after your 9-5. Strike but like, on weekends, because otherwise you’ll starve. Rise against the status quo, but market your subculture, Instagram filters on, just enough clash with a dash of mainstream.

Take another brick from the wall to make a pathway To the next least bad option of all bad options. Then when you’re blood-vomitingly sick of all the bullshit you‘ve been fed since you were old enough to count, You’ll see capitalism for the cage it is, a coffin, every day a collection of little deaths, But hey … at least there’s wifi.

I may have mixed in a little too much snark with coffee this morning. Not sure if it's finished or needs more spit.

It may be a contender for my "wifi coffin" zine I'm compiling or something else funky punky af... We'll see. 🤗

Today
Hooray
Is Prez’s day

The beltway
Is in disarray
The Rs display
Moral decay
And to my way cliche
Dismay
The USA
Has gone astray

So if I may
Today I pray
Freedom’s mainstay
Won’t slip away

The Words We Choose They say young women, as if that made it bearable.The youngest was thirteen.They call them escorts, as if they walk in willingly.They are taken. The door locks. The papers say they had sex with him…

A pantoum about the language we use to make rape bearable; and the children we erase when we use words to make ourselves more comfortable.

Will you bear witness to the grief, struggle, and strife? Is this how God has blessed us? Is this how we honor life? As fathers bury daughters and mothers bury sons, is this how we honor life through the barrel of a gun? Will you bear witness? Every camera is turned on, and we still have time to change this but we ain't got that long. Gather mothers, fathers, and children it will take everyone, to remove the chains that bind us and leave ‘em on the white house lawn. Will you bear witness to the fight of our generation to reclaim our very lives? ‘Cuz this is how God has blessed us. This is how we honor life.

I'm still tightening it up. Not sure why God appeared in it, or why I cant seem to trim that last verse to 4 lines like I did the others. Oh well. Enjoy 🤗
