that is a supermarket
i)
that is a supermarket
where we gather our sustenace
-a magical emporium of mirrors and
music-surveillance..
for we have many laws
both legal and moral-
thou shalt not steal!
bleep?
ii)
our technology is theft
and will bring an end
and there are those who say
about time-
we shall return to fire
we have paid our debt
lord..
that, is a fast food outlet..
iii)
but there are those who enjoy
the convenience
and running after wildebeest
not for them-
that building is the town hall
choices and democracy
peas or beans
to you and me-bleep..
iv
that´s a pub and there is
a hospital
there, the police station
a symbiotic call-
alcohol....!bleep?
one cheap narcotic readily
available and socially
acceptable-
causing mild euphoria
to depression and sometimes
violent behaviour-addiction
common place..
v
bleep!
frightening?
where-as marijuana
giving peace and well-being
possessing health-benefits
mental and physical is hunted
down like double parking on a
bank-holiday..bleep?
why?
mostly tax reasons.
bleep-tax..
ignorance-
vi
we would burn old ladies
that distribute herbs
bleep-words-power and money
and ***..bleep?
-the way we procreate
each culture has it´s take-
we were taught that the
children of god, adam and eve
in the garden of earthly delight
were innocent but not to eat of the
forbidden fruit-(reputably an apple
but subsequent speculation cast doubt-
more likely a fig or cherry moyet
in keeping with the climate)
but a serpent-(vilified ever since-)
tempted her- eve took a bite-(being a woman
when told not to do something..)
(and vilified ever since-)
and so they were cast out-
into this world of sin..
bleep?we were children-
(but the apples reputation
remains intact-)
we turned out odd..bleep..
each culture has it´s belief and
art-that is the museum-
they sell the best chips in town, there-
i had a war once over vinegar
bleep?no,you would n´t believe
it.. we will fight over anything..
which end of an egg to open
football or music..
vii
bleep?-why-
mostly bored-bleep?
-wearied by dulness or
sameness-
our system demands it-
it outwardley promotes individual
spirit but we are alike-if not
then it would n´t function..
(if someone is different then they
better have good reason..)
we spurn this similarity-
duality-
cultures that are similar
often war..
but if we did n´t demand
greasy hamburgers
made from noses and spleen
where would we be?..bleep..?
so,what about personnel anarchy..?
bleep..
viii
here, we have war between
the socialist-liberal and capitalism
individual-we will fight over anything..
we are warrior..
our brains create serotonin
that crush bone and worry
later..we shake hand and give
a little kiss and make heart shapes
and grin inanely-
but for some reason we hate each
other-don´t know why..
bllep..yes,bllep..
ix
now, that is a bank-bleep..
you have to go?
ah,you are looking
for intelligent life form-
try the moon-bleep
up their symbol of
love and darkness
diana noble hunter..
