Urticaria

Met a poet, a tightrope walker with insomnia
Urticaria is a bitch, he just divorced a witch
Cared too much about critics, went ballistic
Told him the world was illusion, oceans of plastic

Ze Machinenery

Bureaucracy perpetrates cruelty towards invisible digits 
While preposterous hierarchy sculpts deities using blind figures 
Placing a ne'er-do-well waving a master's degree in power 
That's how failed states legitimate slavery and helter-skelter

Living Room Lies

Enduring myths and ugly wallpapers are much alike 
Scraping under glued spurious allegations irks 
So we add an extra layer of leather to our blinkers 
The expensive material makes us fresh believers

Growth

Growth is a healthy word for the Economy
And Consistency is closely related to Stability
Now, Growth is the pride of the most lethal tumor
So what is Consistency, if we don't live forever ?

Polish Ticks

Germs carry the flu
The Oligarchs multiply  
Same influenza

Le Conformisme

À peine sorti de ce moule commun, fabriqué par des contemplateurs sceptiques 

La société m'a gauchement sculpté à l'aide d'un scalpel rouillé à double tranchant 

La voilà aujourd'hui procureure et juge devant l'inefficacité de mon esprit critique 

Elle m'accuse de tricherie, de m'être accroché aux parois lisses de ces principes contraignants

To The War

The egg of innocence fled mayhem and despair with prospects and aspirations under its shell

We heard it squawk and scream for Justice to detach its stained robe from the docks of hell  

We witnessed the incubation and watched it hatch and grow

What will it take to restore a semblance of peace and create the conditions for a new layer of common sense to glow?

The Quest

Chasing rainbows, an exhausting exercise 
Self-Luminous plasma spheres are motionless
Neglected souls, enfeebled by a constant umbrage
It only drizzled briefly, unpack your luggage

©Jajjazz

Angling

Losing weight preying inspiration
Blood getting cold, incidents unfold 
Fishing ideas, depleting my mind 
Triumph awaits, end of the line

©Jajjazz

Nonsense

The selfish unconscious jerk saved three lives
O negatives are so compatible and self-reliant
Working for the Border Protection fits him well
Any stranger on his path will get a taste of hell

Appearance

It's not a kiss if it cost you time
And there is no march without a whack  
They smooched in public and paid the fine  
You planned this war, I'll scorch your shrine

Me

I entered this world as a fragment  
Like an interrupted work of art 
A cornucopia of ideas left unfinished  
Seize them all before I vanish 

©Jajjazz 

Consuming

We fight to be first in purchase
But nothing we buy is really alive
When atypical pain strikes a chord
Reseting the clock, we can't afford

Persistence of Memories

Memories corrupt the moment when uninvited  
Sought after, they adjust according to our manipulations 
Swept away, they dissipate along with our delicate aspirations 

©Jajjazz 

Persistence de la Mémoire

La mémoire empoisonne le moment lorsqu'elle s'invite 
Sollicitée, elle s'ajuste au gré de nos manipulations 
Balayée, elle s'évapore avec nos tendres aspirations

Information

Isolate yourself from organized cacophony  
The steadfast anchorman needs awe to subsist 
Using a never-ending roar to instruct the Legislator 
He'll spy and rat on you if you witness his furor

Ostriches

The drums are ticking under three thousand watches
Political immobilism and sheer hypocrisy rule
Borders are a good idea when it's time to travel
Close your eyes, another crib floats down the channel

Superstardom

Licked my elbow on live TV
Won a prize, a star, two trophies 
Old Street names now fear me.

Post Mortem

They called the poet a self-absorbed delirious clown
They laugh at the visionary scientist who stuttered 
When the scheme of their concepts were finally understood 
A crazy sculptor came along with a bust made of wood

The Menace

Watch me sprout, vivacious like a rhodendendron 
Try to control me, welcome to your own conundrum 
Too much ink, no more saliva, here is a subpoena 
Ignore me again, I'll leave you alone with my aura 

©Jajjazz

The Protest

Just doing my job is a solid answer
Being employed, a great source of pride
Doing what's right also sounds righteous
Choose your employer wisely
Paying bills with two wrongs sounds ignominious

Evening News

Unveil innovation to the dedicated ignorant 
Scared, brain shuts down, healthy bowels liquify
Flatter the misinformed with staged scoops
Reassured, lungs expand, sick minds only justify

A Viewer's Opinion

Warring without images depicting the absolute despair 
Benefits the complacency of the unpaid weepers 
Put the insufferable with a clear warning on the air 
And suddenly, everyone hears a heartbeat, not numbers

Isle of the Stolid

Scientific observations lead to social accommodations  
Prudent considerations silence the obtuse by choice 
But when the obvious is ascertained and tested  
A cuckoo cooks a book and reason looks wasted
