A Poem About Being An Independent Poet In A Fact-Enslaved United Excuse for States
THE MISAPPROPRIATION OF LITTLE WHITE LIES CAN MAIM AND EVEN KILL ~ Jonathan Swift
PRICED
Business became busy in the
head: bidness, gambouling, gambling,
bling, Ling-Temco-Vought,
F-111,
small-town and rural dignity inflamed
until American peasantry erupts
into civil war. Wholesome
or Loch Ness? Zombies cannot be
left to choose, for they always
take Death. Any infinity
which knows us: like magic! Nope is
automatic, priceless, censorship,
some lost potter in London
did not care about being caught up in
Grade Q bizwacks, mind yer
own. The they, they
love stardom. How is it--they'll howl
at naivette, protoplasmic bits
about poverty, poor
in souless protocol? Thus that 16th
Century vase was foundered
on the floor of a
machine shop's burnt-down switch
room.
As usual, it broke. Disappointment?
Not cashed in?
Go. Break whatever it is? Brake it
yourselves.
~ an editorial statement sans facts but replete with honor and actual thinking. For all independent and poetic voices that, because undocumented, are invalid as human beings.
