Civil In Barbaria
no one alive'among
us
capable of Taking
Note
of this great in'dustry- indeed,
no one recalls
if eversuch eXisted-
the Way[wayway]is so clear- each
sweetSelf sealed in
it's little orb made
of something not unlike stone-
yet some remember when you lived
th'ere wit 'me', our
skeletals clicking
each other thru th comfort
of skin.....managing, mannering,
'saving'
eachother's Life[s] from dour statistic-
then, like when none were looking to see
any thing, sav'ed life was left for dead
in middling amerika's
waste'collective
of individdled freedom-dee-dumdum, &
became ghost/ghostlike/
specter/ part-guy[of]
part-ghost and
a misbegotted,gentlepariah
'en Dada'
so bloody odd to them ranks a'filing by-
just another of mult'it'ude sadcircumstance
in Our massproduxion'd civility,
[ yOur quarantine of them old devils
breakinOnDown ]-
thee unthinkable
vanishing act
acted as if by involuntary
twitch or seizure or
perhaps merely
an inevitable error
of bein'human
when some poor body would'have,could'have,
