Guilt and Interest

Guilt is so powerful to poverty since running out of money
relies on a lack of security in your actions
and in your spending choices. Bad people don’t supply their own choices
security, but the good people are where guilt is well
established and security is quaky, like in New York.

I come to doubt my choices
when it’s security I am missing, believing
my limitless cash would be better
outsourced in foie gras farming or minidisc production.

Credit works on guilt. In trusting you
companies realize guilt and toxic
relationships move large income generation.

Most large amounts of income are founded
not on hard work or even investment,
but on the ability to make a larger amount of people pay
for a product than what that product is actually worth.

Consumers feel guilty therapy when they research how to buy
And need one product,
so they punish themselves by paying too much for it.

Once the transaction is completed, customers feel
better having been punished.
Moreover, a bonus is that consumers
allow themselves to act as the direct
agent of their own punishment.
A conscience and its money are soon parted.

It’s easier to see how guilt works when
how guilt processes are concrete. With money,
this is almost never the case.
When cash becomes an abstract
as it does over the computer –
abstraction made easy with billions
upon billions of interest rates –
then guilt turns into something fuzzy.

Suddenly whoever holds the bag
no longer guilty, but is rich!
We don’t call our earning achievers to task,
only our spenders, so that only when cash
becomes an instrument do we
call it good (philanthropy or self-made)
or bad (embezzlement or laundering).

You just research

Africa....more complicated than we thought.

Up total number nabs recalls most hemmed-in proctorship
Ghosting a number coming to my mind
I can call this number you're telling me
It's you against me in Africa
What we're wearing is objectionable
The radio announcer is guano's guarantee
A preakness bat and our sexualizing imp will denature

Taking the nature face out of World Wildlife Feds
Fencing is freaky because it frightens fiends
And Friends both nasty and humpty are lolling
I guess nature is too much
Too much announcing occupies Africa and my cabin
Full of nuclear genital WHY questions
Like why the loose gin genitals
Like why the turbanization inside the epistolary cream sauce?
I baste the moisture voice
You get that from my cell
My cell with no African reach

Basically like we controlled it.

Firstly, technology mad our lives we don’t have to stay at home

We can honestly say that we are addicted depends on them.
We basically use computers for each thing
going on our screens live
But it has also taken a lot but definitely not more.

The water cooler is full of mystery toxins

When I feel a real ocean
Of tension, in the dying postscripts
The post tits, the water cooler
Messages I’ve been on the harsher end of

Giant expense account boss sticks
When I feel the sobriety pain
The last name first name
Falling into a cool Heaney, Seamus
Pool of inalienable cool water
Who’d blame us under

Arguing on the internet
Competing in the paraOlympics
In the preachy pre-teen Platonic love insects
Plummeting from the ties of execs
Braking inches over the ground
Before the bladder heaves
To carom its silly legislature
Onto the nearest vindictive 24/7 suture.

can we get them all in one shot (2)

I’m wondering can we explode
The two in the same Canon frame
To win this important photography contest

can we scrape those people together
putting this fragment of a head here
and this arm can match up creating
a picture where two sliced hands are doing actions
they would never do.

Two perfect hands together make a national
Interest coming together. Two torsos
From different owners could be cousins
All the people scraping this program
Is capable of and I got it free. It’s a lie
To consider paying for something that pops up
When you hit start but you can’t hold
In your hand like two similar dynamic bodies
Whose owners are alive and still fighting
Who gets them to pose

fragment...Can we get those bombs together in one shot

I’m wondering can we explode
The two in the same Canon frame
To win this important photography contest

Our countries have people really angry at each other living within the borders
And when you poke your fingers in my business and my business stares back with Discount cigarettes and dynamite….anger flares
Into a force worthy of war. War should be over your plate when you think about it
While you’re pondering
War will be worth cutting your family dinner up with knives
So there’s war, and the people aren’t giving up on war
They will find a way to split family into sharp focus
Because food is precious and family is lame excess baggage!
But then happiness also presents an alternate route
Because you can marry an unimportant stranger who was before an enemy
And then without an answer, the dictator unleashes a special round
And your housepet dies in an ethnic conflict television
Where kisses bomb to get warm in the glow of their explosion

I will S$#% you a cake

If you cannot spell your own name getting a cake is going to be a difficult project.
Because entering a grocery store without knowing the spelling is terrible and most grocers refer to it, a shit cake when produced in a hurry is the result.

Anyway, you won’t have to worry about embarrassment because I’m going to shit you a cake in celebration of the fact that helping to spell your name when there’s better shit out
Is what I’m going to hand you: the shit cake but in several pieces like movements, each with its own soloist and appreciated for the ability to lick its own foot. You’re going to love requesting the same shit cake every year but with different candles for your age. This is actually the easiest part- burning.

Each age has its own shits and a giant recycler to assure the size and shape of all cakes equal rights don't deny when you shovel it down. This explains why shit cake rules the most powerful regents exams scores without studying with perfect due to the cake celebrity.

MLB Mascots Need to Have TALENT!?

Many people wear uniforms to work, but as a MLB team mascot, you wear fur. I’m sure the temperatures inside your assumed personality are higher than outside where you’d actually face the world, so specific personality traits are needed to support this biosphere. Of the many, one or two: be decisive and be tolerant.

If you work and wear a uniform, it is easy to describe and you are kept apart by your distinctive dress.

The ability to make decisions without needless explaining has been the trademark of presidents and team captains the world over, and yet this fairly in-demand skill also applies to MLB team mascots. In baseball, unlike in other sports, each batter's object is to kill the mascot. [Generally speaking, this is accomplished by striking a wound yarn-like sphere with a Louisville-manufactured and lacquered piece of stretched pinewood by forcing said pinewood to ply a trajectory starting at the shoulder facing upward at a near 25-degree angle away from the face and moving through the chest, straight out from the body and pointing the thickest section away from the body by fully extending the arms and breaking the wrists to allow the pinewood to end up near the other shoulder or on the ground, this latter position again forming an angle of 35 degrees from the waistline. The entire movement describes a large lemon-sliced semi-circle.] In order to avoid death by a bean, a mascot must be possessed with decisiveness to avoid the ball, distances him or her with speed. Stepping to the right or left, forward or backward; to end up where the ball isn’t. And while this might seem easy, the actual task of avoiding a projectile moving at 100+ MPH is rather difficult and requires not the least bit of dexterity and decision-making. This steadfastness of spirit also comes into play with mascot behavioral limbs: a good mascot will incite and induce the crowd, actually anticipating actions and predicting what the crowd needs, not what it wants with a dancing pirate or bear wearing a jersey or swinging a tomohawk. A good mascot’s split second decision brings a crowd to ovation-like reverence for nothing more than a typical base hit. But it’s the essence of the mascot that occupies the field and that gets the crowd cheerful and carefree in an otherwise hostile atmosphere of play.

Tolerance is the social grace of cockroaches, they say. But the ideal mascot must perform like cockroach during a grace period. There will be many instances of fanatics shouting lewd and unsportsmanlike commentary for which they’ve paid fair market ticket prices about your family, hoping to get under your furry little rung, but ideally, mascot tolerance should hold. The fledgling exuberance of small fans could have carried you through an entire doubleheader, but it’s the stainless demeanor of a weathered caddy that works a miracle with angry facial demonstrations and converts them to overt resignations in a pall of your team’s vast superiority. Able mascots deflect personal assault with ease and are highly-prized assets in a world of both virtual, masked and aerial attacks – comprised of elements taken from both physical and psy-ops camps — levied against the several personalities behind our petty symbologies, and thus demand is reflected in salary negotiations, recent advances in our friends' free agency, and research forays into mascot PTSD vis-à-vis recent Gulf War subway series.

Therefore, the ideal mascot is far from milquetoast or accommodating without cause: The ideal mascot allows enough fan freedom to convince teams’ constituencies of sovereignty granted by a sincere and impartial governing body whose true identity remains only speculated.

the in-laws

My in-laws are in town this week, which means I'm doing more talking and touring than writing. I think it's good to leave writing to others for awhile, then get back to it later. Recently, Michael Stewart visited and we discussed, among many other things, the superabundance of writers and writing in the world today. And how it needs to calm down a bit.

If not ever before, writing is now accepted by the establishment as being present in the world. In general, this is true in NYC- art is everywhere; you can stop giving to the NEA.

So I'm taking a writing rest. I think I might read INFINITE JEST.

Sprung Formal '09

Sprung Formal is such a well-put together publication. A publication's publication: glossy and full of great art and poems.

Gestures

VIII

I saw a guy gesturing wildly
From the chairlift I was choosing to ski
I was choosing to ignore his rampage
In the skies.

He was shouting a message about his appendix
I wanted really badly to see it explode in the sky
Like a bunch of fireworks
With food stuffed in them.

I would soon forget his gestures.
It’s so easy to forget what you saw
A stuffed puppy opened up
To reveal more stuffed puppies inside
Infinity.

History Makes People Bad People Everywhere (2)

History has made bad people everywhere
Without anyone controlling it.
They beefed control up
And security remains light
Even though what you see is when a vision
Gets out-of-hand

The bad people are escaping
And we turn our eyes to see them run
Great fun can sometimes be had
Watching bad people escape
When these use unusual ways to do it.

Another source of my newfound desire
To implant significant changes in artificial areas
Is that good people are turned down often by bad people
As if the bad know the good are doomed
And aren’t equipped for the job.

Bad good people are also feverish
To get a hold of bad bad people
Who do impressions of the bad good
For sake of laughs for the sake of ska

An aspect of ska has changed
And these bad people are there witnessing
The new dances and recordings that pass for this format
The bad idea police are around, too.

Some more history lessons for you:
In the garden of bad and good, people are grown.
These growth spots are called “historical”
They frequently are given signs
Near entrances where high visitor numbers register.
Registers know they are doomed
But manage to eek a living out
Forming proceeds, or what we call donor-a-thons
Comprised of seriously committed bad people
And the individuals made up numbers.

Here is how history turns a profit
And gets the regular joes shouting
This guy reinforced that guy’s desire
Or enforced the rules and security that guy thought bad
And these two guys shout in magic code
Using dates and facts that bad people manipulate
So that the argument is based on zip but bad research.

Alfredo and Animals

Alfredo notices the shimmering lakes, where there are sometimes golf players. One hunched over and pulled out an automatic weapon. The game was over. He notices that he steps out of the condo and wipes off a cigarette, lights it and immediately the air conditioner kicks on. Eighty degrees in the shade is a no can-do. Certainly you must know that Alfredo doesn’t yet like suburbs. He says "depressing" and "lacks originality" when we solicit reasons. Nothing in a suburb is out of the ordinary, Alfredo adds. My ordinary thinking cannot contain suburb. Even the salsa music is boring and detached, as if the band is being followed by debtors owed a lot of money and the drummer just did something bad to one of his own body parts. The car slowly passes Alfredo sucking down a cigarette barefoot.
