Vanguard had it all, he thought – a poem by Pyriel

Not Angels

By Pyriel

Looking to Vanguard’s future, I took a few liberties with Robbie Williams’ Angels. Sorry Robbie.

I sit and wait
For a jury to contemplate

my fate

But they don’t know
I’m an ethical bro
With a large ego

Recruits were often told
That my brain is worth its weight in gold
So when I’m crying in my bed
Indignation in my head
Wishing all my foes were dead
They have the most joy instead.

And through it all, Clare offered me protection
From criminal detection
I had DOS slaves on call

Though struggling to achieve erection
I had a nice selection
Sent for me to ball
Blackmailed affection
I was a failure in bed

I’m feeling weak
Can no longer hide
My coward’s streak
The inmates shove
When they should show
Unconditional love

When the cell doors are not closed
Fellow inmates are not bros
And they’re butting on my head
My judo seems to have fled.

And through it all, Clare offered me protection
From criminal detection
I had DOS slaves on call

Though struggling to achieve erection
I had a nice selection
Sent for me to ball
Blackmailed affection
I was a failure in bed.

I could have run a legal corporation
Not a criminal operation
Hounding enemies in court
And now I’m in a cell
Fighting my convictions
With many health afflictions

I had it all, I thought
Seeing through the fiction
Parlato’s smiling instead.

Well done Pyriel! Love it!

BREAKING…
on another unrelated note.

Keith gave birth to a 4 lb. broasted chicken. The mother and broasted chick are doing well. There will be a baby-shower in Keith’s unit this Sunday. No gifts are necessary. For those who wish to contribute, a trust fund has been established for the chick’s education – judo, driver’s ed and piano lessons. 🙂

🙂 I’m more curious as to how the baby shower went down today! heh heh.

Well done on the prose. You’re a good creative writer.

Never heard of the guy, but nice song and adaptation.

About the Author

Frank Parlato is an investigative journalist.

His work has been cited in hundreds of news outlets, like The New York Times, The Daily Mail, VICE News, CBS News, Fox News, New York Post, New York Daily News, Oxygen, Rolling Stone, People Magazine, The Sun, The Times of London, CBS Inside Edition, among many others in all five continents.

His work to expose and take down NXIVM is featured in books like “Captive” by Catherine Oxenberg, “Scarred” by Sarah Edmonson, “The Program” by Toni Natalie, and “NXIVM. La Secta Que Sedujo al Poder en México” by Juan Alberto Vasquez.

Parlato has been prominently featured on HBO’s docuseries “The Vow” and was the lead investigator and coordinating producer for Investigation Discovery’s “The Lost Women of NXIVM.” Parlato was also credited in the Starz docuseries "Seduced" for saving 'slave' women from being branded and escaping the sex-slave cult known as DOS.

Additionally, Parlato’s coverage of the group OneTaste, starting in 2018, helped spark an FBI investigation, which led to indictments of two of its leaders in 2023.

Parlato appeared on the Nancy Grace Show, Beyond the Headlines with Gretchen Carlson, Dr. Oz, American Greed, Dateline NBC, and NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, where Parlato conducted the first-ever interview with Keith Raniere after his arrest. This was ironic, as many credit Parlato as one of the primary architects of his arrest and the cratering of the cult he founded.

Parlato is a consulting producer and appears in TNT's The Heiress and the Sex Cult, which premiered on May 22, 2022. Most recently, he consulted and appeared on Tubi's "Branded and Brainwashed: Inside NXIVM," which aired January, 2023.
