evangelicals

September 7, 2022October 2, 2022 ElRoyPoet

Don’t be pretending you’re “holier than thou”,By throwing that #conservative hashtag around.You’re not worthy of that lofty title—Just call yourself nationalist christians,Protectionist of your white supremacist status quo. The “golden rule” doesn’t mean:Do unto others, what you don’t want done … Continue reading evangelicals

Saving Democracy

September 1, 2022November 29, 2022 ElRoyPoet

What can an old man do?He has already lived his life.He cannot take another path.He cannot make a new plan.He can only hope,His children will prevail—While he watches at the gate,For the enemy to arrive. “But, I will not waitFor … Continue reading Saving Democracy

Who will love mewhen I’m not in my right mind,when I’m not ableto love you in return? Who will hear me,when I have nothing—worth listening to;when I don’t even understand,what others say and do? Who will care for mewhen I’m … Continue reading Sweet Surrender

Theater

August 14, 2022August 19, 2025 ElRoyPoet

Too much drama in the performance arts;Too many celebrities chasing controversies. Too much drama in conservative talk radio;Trolls and echo chambers repeating the noise. Too much drama in right-wing social feeds;Clickbait headlines and the fake news they breed. Too much … Continue reading Theater

The Joy In My Soul

August 10, 2022February 14, 2025 ElRoyPoet

I want to matter;I want to stay relevant.I keep on talking,I keep on… I’m running out of days.I’m a shooting star,I’m fading fast,I can’t stop… Generations comeand generations go… How do I make an impact?How do I keep on living?“My … Continue reading The Joy In My Soul

Prideful

August 9, 2022August 28, 2024 ElRoyPoet

There’s a battle raging in my mind,For my brain has chosen guilty pleasure,Instead of being kind.My flesh wants to live,And it will sin,To not be left behind.Because my heart’s wounded,And my spirit’s in a bind. Who can help me,Or is … Continue reading Prideful

Finish Strong

July 24, 2022September 3, 2022 ElRoyPoet

Many thoughts race through my mindAs I step up to the starting line,Butterflies through my stomach fly,And as I free that last deep sigh,I feel that death is drawing near,But the end of the race—I do not fear. For when … Continue reading Finish Strong

Take The Romans Road

July 21, 2022November 12, 2022 ElRoyPoet

As I travel down this road,I wonder where I’ll go,I wonder where it’ll take me,I wonder if I’ll know—when to stop and when to go,or if i should just turn— to the right or to the left,what is right and … Continue reading Take The Romans Road

Guardians Of Democracy

July 16, 2022September 8, 2025 ElRoyPoet

Just because I was born with supremacist and nationalist tendencies:It doesn’t mean, I can be trusted to rule the world.So why would I allow a populist—worse than I—to be the boss of me?It’s asinine to ever imagine, that it would … Continue reading Guardians Of Democracy

put up your nukes

May 11, 2022December 22, 2023 ElRoyPoet

Don’t you know,war isn’t a video game—that you get to choose sides? Don’t you know,that when you strike a match,something’s gonna burn? Isn’t it better,to strike up a conversation,for someone’s mind to turn? Don’t you know,that if you live under … Continue reading put up your nukes
