Old ladies always used to say to me 'That's disgusting! How could u look at that ****?!' My buddy Paige, a radical feminist, snatched it from my hands & devoured it; we used to leaflet against ******* on 86th & 2nd; I'd point to all the prostitutes lined up across the street, & say: 'those girls are doing the same thing the girls are doing in the magazines,' Paige, a brilliant theorist, would go on to start shouting: 'Burn the magazines, not the women!' evoking the witch trials while alluding to the mass psychology theories of the philosopher Walter Benjamin, making me recall reading how he helped other writers associated the Frankfurt School to escape **** Germany, but was captured by the Germans just as he was about step foot into Switzerland where he would have been safely out of their reach...today his monument lies directly on the Germany/Switzerland border where right on the border separating the two countries was erected a high glass wall that under the right conditions is perfectly invisible but a solid glass wall nevertheless; sort of like ****, that exists on a screen or a less so lately, on a page & behind the glass is the reincarnation of a flawless nymph from some lost Golden Age tableaux when in reality working girls really work; making money in small increments by degrading themselves to pay for basic necessities; but who isn't degraded in a society that sometimes seems like it was designed specifically to facilitate human trafficking; human trafficking was only a nascent issue that only involved Asians & Mexicans [or so we thought then]; we were all about banning ******* & legalizing prostitution; I was trained & taught by feminists to make my writing as violent & dangerous as possible at first to counter & then to replace *******; ******* w/ its whiffs of Social Realism - schematized, diagrammed & charted so every body part is accounted for; a reactionary anti-psychedelic Conservative conspiracy - cooked up in corporate boardrooms to supply the capital for off-shore shell companies - hell, the next time a Christian goes to a *******, she should say, 'Sorry, it's against my principles to service hypocrites.'  - that'll show 'em
