are you protesting
social glue
blown out of social air
across the river
the avuncular complex
gleams
gelatin smiles
portentous, "balancing act"
roosevelt island floats
in pursed lips
as bees' squares
are marked by dashes, columns
as you out
not of
this line
drop into bathos
alarm
are you
speed in diameter
to
hear resist
pleading case
a
boat, and albatross
fa la la, emotional compass
devolved (class
hatred)
goat-bearded boys slide across
monosyllables vetted
by paul virilio
with (university) wit they're
wheeling overhead
"vengeance belongs to god
i'm just here to play tennis" (serena
williams)
but can't deliver us from safety
