Emerging World Cities
Still in the struggle
new ancients
I met his feet
were angles
top predator
in the system animals
we drove in the mountain
ice that is melting
The not-words go the other way
X lived here
Thomas-Sankara derived
anthem for the displaced
leader of a last foco
hold out in the hills of Guerrero
forever kill
the head python
coding stars and dreams
succulent forest blister
bats fevers and spiders
trashed people
Found Poem
The campaign has absorbed so much
attention, risking disorientation,
movementist mirage over real events
in order to bolster the faith
of an often-distant audience.
Such sermons, broadcast over
social media, soon rise to such
a volume that all else is drowned out,
obscuring the basic facts of what
happened and what it really might portend.
