extension of a rope lift

governance in unhuman power
both in opposition to the lifting might
the manufactured dotted stifling,
responsibility only a degree of forces,
history, systematic slogans tied
in vase sculptures
for retired thieves.

anesthesia succumbs to polite structures
immobilized, in paralysis for dormant weddings,
for every collaborating witness, a momentary
consumer trenched in the solidarity of
our assets, our veiled humanity
tossed into the stream of unforgiving recorded
dogs of sectarian tapestry,
like the widow of our
highly appraised documented aperture
our vanguard oppression,
our sentimental stance
under satellite states
in orbit, in circulation
in fatigue white houses
for ornamental reproach
and delicate inferior cloth
aprons tied behind the backs
of yesterday’s tomorrows
hip leaders
convicted and resounding
in ornamental applause.
