power vs the people
June 5, 2012 § 40 Comments
the 48 laws of power. but i don’t want the power i want the people. and the power play you give me, I don’t want it, I hand it back, you can have it. I can’t play your game, I don’t want this change, I cannot relate, this is not the real me I am kind and caring, this is faked and calculated. And I won’t do this because this it hurts us —and I won’t let her have at you again. Tell me where I’m wrong, point out all my flaws, rejoice in my wrongs, I’ll let you recount my wrong interactions, let you re-circle my chaotic tactics, rehearse my dramatizations, the games that I played in my head over time–can’t re-do. It’s time that is ticking the time that I gamed with, the minutes I let loose and failed to introduce this real girl this great girl, this kind and filled with grace girl who loves and lets love in and hurts when it doesn’t come through and breaks down and cries when he plays her. the 48 laws of power, my 48 pages of scandal, my predisposition falsified situation, my gaming, my hearting is aching from taking and playing the 48 laws of mystification. you’re miseducated to think that i’d let you have at me again without the real me here to stand up and fight you right.

Hello Coco, THANK you stopping by to read the blogs. I’ve returned the appreciation by reading your work as well. I have enjoyed the few that I have taken the time to read. I hope that we both will continue to read each others publications from time to time. Continue in your destiny! To GOD be all the glory for the marvelous things HE is doing.
Elder, Shawn

loved it! so fluid, like listening to you speak your hearts poetry.
You are a powerful woman. Do remember that you may fall flat on your face again, after you’ve been standing strong and tall. And if you do, remember all your power comes from you. They cannot control us, although why the hell does it feel like y world is on the axis of a man!
I’m completely filled with sudafed and getting dopey, but couldn’t want because I loved what you wrote and had to say thanks for sharing your thoughts!!

This is really terrific. While reading the first few lines, I thought it was in the voice of Obama (Sorry, I see politics in everything!). But then I like how it moved into a more personal direction, and I could see it was all your voice. And a powerful voice it is! Love the ending inparticular.

I’m a big fan of “The 48 Laws of Power,” and wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I popped in here.
THAT, was cool…
Your style flows like jagged, kinesthetic water. I will call it “emotovisceral.”
