Incurious George

can't grasp that Iraq is lost.

Who dares pull the plug?

Rasputin's Metaphysical market

Slack-jawed confusion

can one make money from this?

The sign says "used soul"

Hemingway knew

Predisposed to trust

in gods, in kings, in free lunch

neotonic man

--

Inauspicious

Dare I go on glide?

How will I find the next lift?

Blue skies breed caution

modern turkeys

Flightless and tasteless

they're wonderfully efficient

but are they poultry?

Yellow genes

Can one blame the fools?

Wired to believe Cheney's lies?

Monarchist boot-licks

Wired to serve

Eager to submit

to king or god or mommy

homo domesticus!

Factory chicken

Skinless and boneless

all your art can't lend it zing

it tastes like tofu

Captive press

Cheney's heart attack

news suppressed by whitehouse

run the fluff story

Slalom 2

Panties clog the air

pretty hazards to pilots

like dying monarchs

Las monarcas

We slow to a crawl

the air is thick with their wings

"Butterfly crossing"

Nylon pylons

We slow to a crawl

hemmed in by colorful wings

slalom through panties

timing is everything

Clouds form over launch

while we dawdle on the ground

stuck here in traffic

waypoints

Salmon canapes

punctuate a day of food

this must mark "supper"

self

Mere dust and ashes

and the crown of creation

ego's conundrum

Ego II

Mere dust and ashes

and the crown of creation

each man's paradox
