cinco de mayo

as an alternative and newly needed declaration
of independence from a government not representative

governing from inside instead a textual unfolding as a form of footpath
that's personal and fluid

spoken as that and in its unfolding in short paragraphs
not that as a form of heirarchy

not socially distributed as power feeding into a chain of command
rather something which moves inward from scattered far reaches so spoken

and that being personal
it gets distributed

it gets distributed amongst friends
it gets distributed socially

what is a response to something otherwise unseen by another
but so what it gets anyway spoken

and conjures an own inner mexico massing on an own outer street
and conjures an own inner antinomy

urn worn uranium warn public and a terminal bureaucratic collapse
where (am) I (am) witness to an internal relation between external possibilities

and say so in words
 

having being ticket
shoving sluts and guy

who has only one hand
why should we even let them in
 

the world of thought "differing from that which is" having
to push aside those who otherwise seem useless, a product of

the neighborhood as social engineering
 

needing some spot remover and no wonder
having made numerous arrests
for prostitution the last few days but they just keep getting out and back
to the same spots

let everyone know we are as frustrated as you folks
we who anyway have little faith in our effort all gone to naught
the hot spot additionally being the
number 1 problem in our neighborhood
 

to sing -

the scenery in our neighborhood
is lovely today

ever since we posted
those no-trespassing signs
 

prevention, and

having worked rather against my own neighborly fears
since this place shall soon resemble a fortress, I seem to have been removed
from the mailing list (as one who walks around daily)

not that I don't appear wild myself,
thinking, I suppose, that walking and talking on a regular basis serve
some numberly function, and having objected to uncertain characterizations
 

or so speaking (s)he, since they all seem in a panic

last night I noticed a large group of homelesss hanging out at the corner,
a few sitting on my stoop - and as they were sitting there, saw me and tried to come in
they hung out at the corner for a few hours and I went to bed, again,

hoping you all can keep an eye out
and how that would appear "all dark and comfortless"
egg white and flax
 

belonging if
in an american neighborhood, and

if I specifically spot three homeless people on the haywood park corner, and
if I also spot one wild looking man running toward our neighborhood on wednesday evening, should we be trying to talk

to these folks in our neighborhood? Should we call police if we see them?
 

older homeless guy looking for work
or $8 going door to door on park avenue n
and girdwood he was at that time white and
appeared over 60 - missing his left hand he
was wearing a hat, and when last seen he was dragging

a backpack/suitcase on wheels
 

wrong again when it isn't linear
added, by the way
we have arrested 3 persons today for prostitution
 

memory as a vanishing
act

ragged at either end
of being being that

radiates outward from
an indefinite

center
being (me) who

holds the pencil
but that me as unfinished how

can even I
know that as finite
 

speaking of this as that
which it becomes

by open design
saying so it isn’t

discreet since
allowing for intrusions
