What are you conserving, I asked my unread conservative friend.
The American Way
he said.
Like
in the songs, like back when Superman
was black and white, but
we knew,
his kryptonic heart
was read pure white and blue
and we still know,
green greed and
black time and chance, if those were never re-
al-ified, he could be,
he could be but,
for that militarial industrial mental complex
which made
Daddy Warbucks
money-ify Kryptonite,
other wise Superman would save us, so
we conserve the idea of America, as a spirit,
Drums and fifes and shots fired round the world
we stand, for the American way. Superman would.

With what deeds are you judged liberal,
I asked my friend whose hero was Fidel,
when he was ten.
My friend, swift to answer, ready, with a bullhorn:
my writing and my speaking and my teaching are liberal.
Those lable you? what is deemed liberality for which
ye are judged?
Oh, I am not judged, I am in the adminstrative side,
I administer social justice by allowing critical
appreciation of the sense under lying
dadaistic community
gardens. which produce liberal reasons for
deeming faith a very low class
exercise in sapient sapience.
Whom teach ye?
Those who are sent to be taught by selection committees,
who sort tests, based on statiscal
weights and measures pre
dicted apriori for the best
social cultural
outcome.
Who pays you? Each of you.
con-server, liberal,
Who weighed your worth
in this fifty-fifty polictic project,
organical and all,
who runs the show? Is it spiracy?
Are elections pre ordained?
Was W. called by Oil and Trump oracled by Konami?
Was Barack Husein simply gas?
A UFO illusion?
Some thing the gut biome of the nation
burped or expelled from other orficees?
How did the assets of the fed expand
4.5 times since 2008,
when all I had conserved melted
with deflation of
the noise, zeitgeistiical,
humm, hear it? Do you?
Brainless axiomatic synaptic static?
Manifest destiny? Google it.
No. I checked. Not preordained. Things change.
This is the way.
