Rainbow Man does SLAM poetry...

This is an old poem I wrote 4 years ago. I never had a title for it but intended it to be a SLAM poem. I would recited it in front of a bunch of dipshits in some shitty ass comedy club somewhere. Who knows, maybe one day I still might.

At the time I wrote this I was a janitor working overnights at PSU (Portland State University). It was my last job I will ever have working for Corporate Fascist America. Part of my job as a janitor working 3rd shift or "graveyard" as it is often called was trash running. Of course, this being February in Portland there was snow on the ground and freezing rain outside. And I had to walk all the way up the road alongside the football field to get to where the dumpsters were a block and a half away pushing two of those big brown tubs full of trash bags. And because the gate was locked, I had to throw the bags over the gate, one by one, and hope that they landed inside the dumpster.

I hated working overnights as a janitor so fucking much I wrote this masterpiece below. Truth be told the company I worked for was a piece of shit company called Portland Habilitation Center (PHC). Working at PSU wasn't a cakewalk either. I remember one time I turned off a projector in one classroom (which we are instructed to do if we find any left on) and a few minutes later 3 PSU cops, fake unarmed rent-a-pigs, showed up to investigate. I'm like, "Yeah I turned off the projector like I'm suppose to do. No terrorist activities taking place here." Just one pist off disgruntled janitor wanting to blow this fucking place up!

Anyways enjoy!

Rainbow Man does slam poetry... 2/11/14

Forced to work in this freezing rain
This is really fucking insane
Working a job that is so mundane
I'm angry and pist off but I'm not ashamed
If you only knew and could feel the pain
This life is nothing but a mind game (breath)

Working poor for minimum wage
Even for a guy my age
So angry filled with rage
you better hope I don't get out of this cage (breath)

Now I don't know where to start
I may be naive but I'm really smart
Fragments left of a bleeding heart
What's left of my hopes thats been blown apart
Every experience in life is such a blurr
Now and then comes a slurr
Never underestimate the power of your word (breath)

I speak with conviction
Like a narcotic addiction
So open up your ears and listen
For the truth is stranger than fiction
This indoctrination of degredation
Leaves society devestated
Now we have hyper inflation
Meanwhile the 1% are celebrating (breath)
Our rights and freedoms are being eroded
I've got my guns locked and loaded
These lyrics from my mouth exploded! (breath)

Working all night, sleeping all day
Finally putting the floor scrubber away
At the bus stop making a fuss
Because I fucking missed the bus. (breath)
Home finally I'm off the sleep
dreaming of hippie girls on the beach
You make me swoon, you're my hearts desire
Dancing naked in a hoop of fire
Beautiful ladies from above
The pulsation of life is governed by love (breath)

Another day, same ol' shit
Off to work I go again
Working for you fascist fucks
Goddamn this job really sucks
A system built that's so corrupt
So angry I'm ready to erupt
This life is hard, this life is tough
I'm tired of dying I'm dead enough (1 second pause)
Am I speaking too abrupt? (breath)
Fuck off! It's time to be bold
I'll get you in a stranglehold!
You worthless little sheepish twit
I'm not here to live up to your shit
Squeezing so hard your head pops like a zit (breath)
Whatever it takes to get you out of your seat
So many rainbows I'll make you eat
You'll be shitting skittles for a week
You better not choke you stupid joke
I'll take knife to your throat
Overdose to the coke
Leave these lines that I wrote
And these will be my death notes (breath)

So who's next to provoke?
I'll have you burned and charred like the weed that I smoke
You better pray that I cope
Because my definition of stress relieving
is ripping the heart from your chest while it's still beating.

YEAH! ...You little bitch ass fuck nuts!
WAKE UP OR DIE!
