In Belief We Change

Notes on Neda

2009-07-12T16:03:00.022-04:00

It was an incidental second,

a (post) tacit embrace.

Between eyes and hidden from view,

it predictably delivered the bear's chest:

a supreme teddie on a blue body.

What a crude calling.

The martyr is uploaded in a private release.

Symbol-studded streams suddenly appear,

chanting from inside the black bear.

Inject context. Somebody come and wail.

Twitter misfires and refers to the unclear.

Walking man comes back into view,

trafficking in means, typically embraced,

of phantom sources of foregrounded fables.

Behind the mourning, on the outskirts of explanation,

a first man interprets, while another curses.

The leader calls, the men kneel.

It's heartbreaking, he said, the second of three,

on a merciless afternoon of planned poetry,

exporting a patented position intended to expel

the raw, the physical and searing beat of the particular.

The fabulous articulate

2009-04-22T18:23:00.011-04:00

To average out

the incredible something,

to make sure to think

the consistent same

throughout,

to not know

the perverse why,

even with eyes closed,

and to not choose from

the honest before,

is, for me, well....

Is it fair to say that

to fabulously articulate,

with heavily modified sayings,

facts not yet finished

presents, with normalized certainty,

the unconsidered priority?

Five Quarters

2009-04-19T15:37:00.021-04:00

I think the need

to be where

it feels

like a test

enables a bit

of the other hand.

But when you know the hand,

when the focus is really on

performing the steps

to assure the support of

an existing position,

then it leads me, sort of,

to force the ratio

between

stress and capital.

Nobody is looking

to de-leverage the test.

The thoughtful idea is that

you need to look,

to be in a position

to lend five quarters,

literally.

But stripped of appropriate focus,

the economy of stress

tests the levels well.

Capital enables capital

and you are the capital

and they have got you

where you are,

supporting the stronger side.

Massive Particular

2009-04-04T20:09:00.034-04:00

I think the place of
the massive particular
is at the summit of
effective crisis,
and I would say it's an
inadequate convergence
between
a point and a set.

I actually think that
looking backwards
to identify blame
demands risks.

But, if you look,

I mean, regulate the look,

in a way that ensures form,
then what emerges is a world
of integrated derivatives,
which, I think, is a world
of enormous consensus
and true product believers,
who can anticipate
the sure thing
and capitalize their lot
from within a system
of regulated contraction.

Icon Campaign

2009-04-02T23:32:00.015-04:00

Show your gratitude.
She does not step forward.
Still black woman
comes at a price.

A thousand faint champions
launch icon campaign,
smothering some day,
however close,
with dimwitted mythology.

Tell the world,
tell your defenders,
milk the blogs,
support the dissertations.
The passionate something must be ignored.

Cranky anonymous
boycotts denials and
wraps her attacks
in her own defence.
In a cocoon of reason,
she skips over
the protective border
and is met by the pedigree,
who do for her
what she has pointedly tried
to do for herself,
in a place
that does not exist.

Diamonds

2009-03-16T16:48:00.028-04:00

If I start to descend
a kiss on the hand
may in the end
help a girl's dice bend.

But a lass needs a Winston,
and a pear-shaped back,
when they lose their love of fighting.

There may come a time
when little pets and big baguettes
are better bets
to keep you laconic.

But beware those affairs
that are strictly platonic,
a square-cut man
is not a girl's best friend.

Time rolls on and
duels lose their charm
and they won't pay
the rental on your flat.

There may come a time
when you're awful nice
and glad to talk to Harry.

It is then the louses
think you're grand,
and you stand straight
at Tiffanys.

But when mean affairs
are a girl's best friend,
a lass needs a lawyer
and a hard-boiled employer.

History

2009-03-15T11:34:00.006-04:00

zest for a second
among twelve idol flashes
command performance
talent is granted.

surface glamour sets
the famous something
two hundred tantrums
golden say has ended.

dollars found star life
under used marriage bed
of played circumstances
of dimming appeal.

twenty-three performances
screen dreams on the side
foster received favorites
history is dead.

Pleasure Podium

2009-03-10T23:25:00.025-04:00

We are a united world of people not looking.
We live free from dreams that know limits.
We speak in official dialogues.
Take your questions to the others, please.
We summon essential energies, role-playing the ideal.
Our commitment is to the shadows,

to undermining the vital other.

We worship reflected values, because

belief has never been our security,

but an enshrined aside, an accepted tyranny.

We will be judged over time by the leaders we rely on.
And when you soil our cause, we will report you

from our pleasure podium.

Thank you for this honor

December 1, 2008

The last few weeks have been very difficult for me.
I thought often of the future and of the circumstances
that are determined to face me, at all costs,
here in America. I thought of my renewed standing in
the world, as a force for positive change and as a
dedicated servant to the global public. And I thought
of my fate, forged in the reeling crucible of the daunting
state of mind of America. I believe I cannot have what
I have promoted for this new century in this new
America of we.

I will continue to serve the elected leaders of our
great country, but I seek a new role serving higher ground
using language founded on half the ideal. I will be leaving
the Senate, the place of the afraid, and those who muster
threats speaking their relentless crisis cause to the protected
interests with more American partners and fewer American
adversaries, and with more dangers and fewer freedoms and
liberties for all Americans. I see home elsewhere.

So prepare for me with honor, my foreign fellows. Cherish
all of my want. God Bless You.

Not Coming

2008-11-19T00:25:00.011-05:00

She could do aggressive well, but
she did the Prince absolutely.
She just went around you.

She has his piece so
she could handle you, and
of course, she could be another woman.

She didn't oppose acting and
she didn't hug Machiavelli.
She just went at it, laying thought, talking.

She is not prologue,
she is permanent reason, and
trust me, she is not coming.

We've Seen This Moment

2008-10-13T15:27:00.043-04:00

We’ve seen this moment, these times,

the easy-difficult story about challenges,

having things and about oppression.

This is America when each has risen.

The we-believe moment is when the

nerves know things.

It’s never been about share from the top,

but about the United States of Democrats

and Republicans, the nation of the fearful

and rejecting, a country of great courage

crisis and purposeful panic.

I know about war and division is coming.

But I faced down unity threats with steel

resolve because I believe I can steer this

mountain to these folks out in this valley

that are rising and worried, seeing

challenges to our deepest we-have moment.

Covenant

2008-09-11T23:58:00.017-04:00

I am absolutely certain that this was the moment

when our nation secured the best jobs on the planet

so that the highest will be able to rise to tell our last

moment. This was the moment when our nation

and this earth came together to provide care for

our very best children and restored the sick and

jobless to the oceans. This was the moment when

we began to remake the ideals from generations

back, and this image that began great was slow to

heal, and as we look now it may always reflect our

good. This was the time when we ended hope and

we began a war of ourselves.

One of us

2008-08-17T04:31:00.006-04:00

Isn't it time we move beyond 20th century goodwill

based on human rights? I want to live in a world

where everyone is like one of us. Obama knows we

definitely need the resources of a renewable 21st

century second-class community. With Obama

there's an opportunity to move a citizen facing

some real need problems to a foreign-like world.

When Obama is president one will feel an economy

and policy solutions based on one of us. I really feel

he, like us, is treated like no equal. We live in an

Obama world and we acted towards it, one of us.

Finger Our Daughters

2008-08-15T14:14:00.008-04:00

Crashing quarter
insert wildly demeaning media
finger our daughters
the new habit

A platform of egos
writes language postmortems
screeching campaign
horrendous portrayals

Raft of Obama
crosses our daughters
bankrupts dreams
of another Joshua

Operation loss
exacted green
a billion dollar campaign
price the magazine

About 15 Seconds

2008-08-13T15:47:00.042-04:00

I looked for her in one Clinton,
and time and again I shook her.
I said put down the security railing.
I said Senator, please talk to me,
forget my name and petition the needs.
When signatures walked into her,
she, the Senator, looked to me.

300 eye the crowd and the thanked,
and the convention, a vote for a handshake.
I asked are we finished in Denver?
Done in by a crowd speech and a brush on the right hand?
She along with them, never thanked,
but asked to support “It’s just right!”

It was as if she took the steps,
taking her to where it all started,
to when people speak erupted.
Are the people standing?
When she was she had gotten a brief conversation.
About 15 seconds.

It definitely got to her.
Has she a nomination for the taking?
Will not she, with we, vote again?

Smile at me Senator Clinton.

Second Person Plural

2008-08-09T23:50:00.029-04:00

I fashion conviction and make nice to the people,

giving the president tools that service a government.

Having old caring meet for your helping wouldn't be

a competent public. Most of this is about have,

a change that challenges you and your lives.

Solve your problems!

Dreidel

2008-08-07T02:23:00.004-04:00

And these attacks on the people

by the good country page

do help turn our politics

in it's place so that,

driven to division together,

incendiary communities can and will up

nothing to our politics of the personal.

And we have no time Tennessee

to come and lift in our negativity.

Judgement

2008-08-04T16:59:00.061-04:00

Playing the field of values that is his
he is about to judge trained bullies
viewed as unlike him.

And is that not about his feelings?

Maybe he doesn’t like the weak.
To the strong he confessed deeper, and
the law always has a way between
professional politician’s easy talk and how Roberts talked.

Say it for this evening.
I did not out Judge Roberts.

Jazz Hands

2008-07-22T16:15:00.022-04:00

my hope is
or, alternatively
what I’m going to do is set a vision

I’m going to continue to listen
all of which is going to contribute to
the overarching strategy

keep in mind
the challenges we face
ultimately, I think
it’s work that must be done

I believe my approach is the right one
I have a track record that will assure
that we mean business
in a whole host of issues

what I can say is that

what I was referring to and

have consistently referred to

as I said before

I've said that not just today,

not just yesterday

let me finish

first of all
a lot of folks
we have to recognize

there is no doubt
I would not be doing my job if

I didn’t pay attention to the facts

those are the factors and issues that

I will take into account as president

that would be something that I would

have to make the decision on,

if I am President of the United States
