America, (for dada weatherman, after Allen Ginsberg, of an ongoing series)

America,
Why are you asking me for money, America?
You don't even have any money.
The governments have no money and the banks have no money, or so they say...
Many can still afford tanks and jets and not to care.

Do you care, America?
Sometimes I just don't know. All the news is bad, every day, and there is a lot of news.
Do you read the news, America? Or do you know something I don't know.

America, they can't even play basketball.
Everyone is too greedy, even children. Were you a greedy child, America?
I just wanted to love my mom, when I was a boy.
Mother Nature has got me pussy-whipped and honey-dipped. And shining like a great sun! An epic star burning in infinity! You know what I mean, America?

I read the news every night. Murder and sports and movie stars and no one has any money. But everyone is born into infinite wealth and absolute freedom. They just don't know or never knew or forgot.
Isn't that what you told me, America?

Where are your witches? Where are your megafauna and primeval forests?
Where are your longhairs and where are your astronauts going.
I've been told where the aliens come from.

They're afraid to meet someone on the street with a nuclear weapon strapped to them
I'm not
Afraid of anything, America
I can't afford to be
America, "I don't have any money."
You can never have enough money and power
How in the hell can I escape this bloody economy?
Let me out, or else.

34th

& as they all fought and battled for power
None able to depart nor claim any victory
Infinite (noise-sound) conquered


It's value lies in its promises and experiments
Creative use of the axe
Fully realized only after many years, a large/long time scale
When the fields are reached
Entrance is forbidden
"the value and importance of history is to expand the (time) frame of our human memory beyond the human lifetime."




I see you
Ovulate
In the milky way
On a moonless night
Red serpent coagulates
Up wooden stairways in the wind
wind & serpent follow them




Mystified
Bewildered
Intrigued
Remote places
Predator stalking
Majestic build & stature
Tantalizing glimpse
Enigmatic
Wolf of the mountain (a wolf riding on the back of another wolf, or a stag (or doe)  riding on the back of a wolf)
Frontier
Venerate the animal
Strange gods
Transformer / Trickster
Difficult to define
In an unfinished state
For some mysterious reason
Astride a dragon
Sun cuts
The crossroads
Scab & Scar
quite a threshold to be poised upon
There was no golden age
We go out from the garden
& into the wild
Did we believe?
How the bad times began
& why they are unlikely to end
Any time soon
Inevitably fictional
The lost center




Elementary
Trustful
Instrumental
Solipsism
Fanciful
Imaginative
Colossal
Efflorescence
Exhilarated
Far-ranging
Chants
Perfect goals
The sublime and the frontier






Reference
Sustained
Duration
"Repetition is a device that disrupts the very idea of the self-contained work which relies on a predetermined structure. There is always, in the repeated occurrence of a thing, a reference to some former occurrence, and in the sustained repetition of a thing, a growing awareness that duration alters it."


Where am I?
Where are we?
