as boundary and as frame
in the event of a falling down
the deprogramming will be scalpelized
on a single window of a single skyscraper
in the event of a falling down

the departed not played by bruce willis
nor arnold
nor harrison bored

the invisible danger of survivors
must play out in the form of the actors’
guilt of america amputates all arguments
a gain st itself

methodically excludes freedom from the stage
no shapes of nature, no well-formed figure
nothing outside of magazine, outside of tv
nothing past our pixilated capacity for pathological disease

oleaginous politactors destring populistic prayer beads
bob dylan boy bands dash cardboard songs
helping talent rust rains of exclusion

invented alliances tossed sick harmonious
at liberty’s chained feet
caved at the back of galleries
atomic night galas
dollars plated with cheese

cocktail buzz adrift gowns and shoes
uncultivated actors
in the event of a falling down
the deprogramming will be scalpelized
no more malleable morality
at least not without the fuck of recognition
the hardpore grind of the human face

america, as if by faming its thingness
forms crisp crystal ships
special k on the membrane

no more pynchon tweezing the miniscularities of imperative
no more delillo theories of constipated conspiracy

take away that puerile drug

the idea of pure america as part of one’s natural equipment
the idea of pure america as the endless non-beyond of good vs. evil
the idea of pure america as private purpose maintained
against the footholds of public mediation

the idea of pure america as a fixed and applicable yardstick
the idea of pure america as the inadmission of sensus communis
the idea of pure america as self-annihilation by stoic ancients
bereft of memory and hence conviction

the idea of pure america as the elimination of language
the idea of pure america as the holocaust of thinking
the idea of pure america as the perfection of exclusion
as the inclusion of human incapacity to taste that thing

that thing, that only thing
that thing that fails to ask
fails to question even the question
that thing that goes further back
that thing that fails to ask
that thing that favors spring and fall fashions over
the thread needed to survive
that thing that fails a phenomenon
free of humanimal differentiation

as soon as entered into articulate composition inarticulate
as soon as art, immercenary art
as soon as recognition, ink dried war signatures
as soon as symmetry, privileged binary
as soon as face
