Forget the Hollywood

by Pawel Grajnert

Forget the Hollywood

Parties democratic,

National broadcasting,

not public long ago,

Europe,

The people’s republics,

All one king now.

Shed no salt in water.

We’re alone. Facing

Our blank supremacy.

Americani perturbati:

Dicks in hands, or about to,

Ὀδυσσεῖς on their couches,

Heads on

the pillow guy’s pillows,

Enthralled

            by banners,

            by marching,

            by the more than fake -

The carnival,

the barker,

the used car,

            the salesman’s pitch…

getting every sense-worth

out of the billionaire.  -

The ostracized

from Capitalism,

Armed, and all

On a god’s missions.

Simulated

fellatio will do for

The ready-to-blow.

Now driving.
