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
