stained glass futurism,hershey bar
colonialism.europa we will rape you
like a cow:mytho-magic dulles
bros,from frankfurt into gitmo

we've trained our black sites on you.
i smell a new world odor.

spray paint.whitewalls.interactive
sensors call your phone.smart-
gouache.tactile.metabolizing
sulfites in the wine.critics.
bunched up.finding words
to clarify your dream.patrons.
outside.
             looking for the stars


.....


the decorative.the gestural.the knife
in my sciatic nerve.the shoes.the self.
the giggle from the far side of the room.


.....


beauty:is
discredited
in visual art
only at the level of idea.
the plastic arts
exist
in the world
of ten thousand things.

but words are dull,ideation
a soup of gray
in the bowl of your head.


.....


the non-motif,resistant to convention,degree zero
behind the code,the black word on the white page,
the spark in the brain struck:bells in the distance.
