Also, Kayla and I are recording our first show for our own think twice radio program this evening. if you would like to appear on it as a special guest or be a phone guest please email me at DoctorSawbones@gmail.com or email me some poetry or voice recordings and we'll get it some air time.

Here is also a link for a public access tv show hosted by Mr. Skimask where Kayla and I are reading our poetry/getting interviewed/other weird things we weren't expecting. Check it out, it's a lot of fun, we are on shows #816 and #817 http://sterlace.com/episodes/

And I also feel the need to add a poem

This house is black
no color
except disease
accept disease
The color of this house
is death
freedom from life
temple built of marvels
learn to worship
chanting poverty
barefoot and tattered

Deformed faces
giving eyes
from brick windows
molded flesh
unlucky birthright
misery

Blind nerves destroying
bones
picked clean
no adequate treatment
anymore
mind following body's lead
towards fate

Praising God for eternal
suffering
wishing wings
to fly from wickedness
on earth
grinding of bitter souls
causing crushed fingers
to cover holes called ears
and in their drooping eyes
the shadows of death

In the remote desert
cries and sighs
seeking freedom from life
The color of this house
is death




again we are looking for submissions for our next issue.please email any poems to wethenotoriousp@gmail.com

truth by letson williams

there’s only one way in

and there is    no       way         back

another                         feelie

this here?

this is the firmness of attack

and this room is

full

of the type                                                                you can see it in their eyes

you don’t want to know

everybody was looking for the double crosser

everybody was

looking

looking                                    

looking

i didn’t bother

i knew it was you                                    and i knew what to do

i’ll tell you the truth

i will tell you the truth

there is not one reason to lie

when i get through                                                            i‘ll be dissatisfied

but                        there is now no going back

and    certainly                                     no standing in place

no make believe       no more pretty face

don’t know which way to go?

there’s just a meanness

so I gotta keep on                                                                                       gotta keep on

gotta keep     on

it’s quite clear how one thing led to the other

this will go down

as                                    just

another

another    “toughen you up”

another      “run for the coast”

another          “hand me your cup”

another                         fffffucking ghost

well, i’m gonna kill that ghost

no matter which way he goes

that fucking ghost

"lambs to the slaughter here"- patrick riedy

the whole reason to cross allen street is gone by letson williams

back then

back when there was still a reason to cross allen street.

back before berlin

back when she was red bone,

 from buffalo

when she was high yellow

when it was "if you're not a staylow, then you gotta go home.

 and that means you too jared leto"

back then

one night

one little night

i heard a man

one man

a book man

the man from the book store

he was stammering and stomping like he was coming straight outta compton

spitting and bloodletting

relentless

the first word came first

it came right on the first stomp

it exploded

he said participatory

yeah, he said participatory

and then he said it again

and again and again

until it rocked with an uneven, white boy rhythm that took it's cue from when the stomp came down

and that alone

he said it again and again

"participatory participatory participatory

"participatory" "participatory" "participatory"

"democracy" "democracy"  "democracy"

yeah, yeah, yeah

he said

"participatory" "participatory"

"democracy" "democracy"

"participatory" "participatory"

"democracy" "democracy"

then some of us started saying it

then more of us started saying it

then it was back and forth,

participatory

democracy

participatory

democracy

the man said

participatory
