Assimilate
By JJ Perez

ASSIMILATE & FACE YOUR FATE,
take the red pill…
choose a life of I.O.U’s,
unpaid bills & dues past due.
A list of who’s, who’s
chased by popparatzies on the news.
Grew up on sesame street & Blues clue’s.
ASSIMILATE & FACE YOUR FATE,
You try so hard to ASSIMILATE,
but it hurts for you to be fake.
Society forces the masses to relate,
WE WILL ?
WE WON’T !
WE’LL WAIT
Socioeconomics breeds a life filled with hate.
Reality stars that fake,
Paris H. & Kim K’s,
Bachelor’s & Bachelorette’s that’s gay,
acting straight.
They’re forced to ASSIMILATE
& face they’re fate.
Not allowed to be them, like
you not allowed to be you, like
we got to be them, like
She got to be She &,
He got to be He.
Think about it real deep
so you can see
ASSIMILATION is rooted in
tablet’s, phone’s & T.V.’s
Rewired your brain since a PeeWee,
Since your very first CD, DVD & Mp3!
Brainwashed & forced fed since a baby,
To be all that you can be
Life in prison, the streets or military
is the ONLY dreams that you can dream.
ASSIMILATE & FACE YOUR FATE !
Or take the pill that’s green…
Disengage from the SIMULATION-
at the seems
Reengage for the STIMULATION-
so it seems
What they use for intimidation ?
The alphabet’s of our Nation
I.N.S. for the immigration
FBI & CIA for the mitigation
DEA & NSA for the population
Satellites & Data spikes to create inflation
THAT’S WHY
The youth of our great land
is growing up in a wasteland.
Toting pistols in their waistband’s
it’s such a waste!
Kid’s living every minute like they can die,
kill somebody
or catch a case!
So we MUST STAND UP
REFUSE TO ASSIMILATE
& FACE YOUR FATE
get up & protest!
march for pro-gress
Don’t let threats of recession
or acts of indirect aggressive oppression
stop you from learning
this beautiful life lesson
Make sure
your life is a life lesson.
Give more than you receive
Have faith in “We the people”
cause it’s ” We the people” that believe
in democratic beliefs!
if the government deceives
MAKE YOUR OWN FATE
REFUSE TO ASSIMILATE

Time’s Envy
By JJ Perez

Winter moon on a Summer’s night,
Blackness of the either,
Amplifies each ancient Star’s light.
Crickets chirp,
southern wind Smells of delight.
Of longings & laughter’s
of loves to be
until time turns foliage
of the trees.
Full Moon’s Harvest
on winters breath.
In Fall, they fall
till none is left.
Snowflakes of lust.
Snow falls to Slush.
Bird’s fly ten abreast,
In flight
from plights & struggle.
Life crawls still
Until spring Temp’s
tempt warmth to Will.
Unto comes the day
the cycle completes.
Circle’s come full circle
Time repeats.
Thus the young man
turned old
understands
Time’s deceit.
He enjoys each moment
every moment,
moments fleet
never waste,
one cycle,
one circle,
every second’s sweet.

Read this Out Loud
By JJ Perez

Daydreams of dreams I’ve dreamed
nightmares of scenes that seem
so obscene.
I can’t unsee what I’ve seen.
Undo what I’ve done,
Outrun what I’ve done.
It can’t be, I hope it’s not,
like father, like son
I have 2 sons,
should I buy 2 guns
or two suits?
Imply what I say,
Unsay what I mean.
Is it Abstract speak
to watch NASDAQ peak?
While kids can’t eat
cause moms can’t work
& Dads can’t breathe?
from knees on their neck
by oppressive police!
I’m sick of being judged
before I even speak!
SO I ACT OUTLOUD
what I want them to see.
when you look in my eyes
all you see
is what I want you to see.
All this is me,
what I wanted me to be.
it’s the essence of my being…
A REVOLUTIONARY!

Immortality

By JJ Perez

Undistinguishable, distinguished man,
Designed for the darkest part of the land.
Outgained, Outgunned rambling on,
Psalms contained to my palms to con.
I no longer exist in essence,
time fails reality.
The past is still present.
Presenting precedence as if it were a present.
My presence within my sentence,
within this sentence.
Distinguishable, undistinguished man I say,
Waiting patiently for the darkest part of the day.
Outrun, outran still rambling on.
Fan the flames of my brain,
until the flames are strong.
I only exist in these words I’ve drawn.
Being present is not presence,
I am only present as you read.
Time is not real,
the present always repeats.
I have become these words,
through these I breathe.
Once you forget,
I’m forgotten.
So have belief and believe.
Through this poem I live forever,
It gives me,
IMMORTALITY.
