But the software chipped away at the casualties,

Which is proof that the government is a coalition
Of wolves & fish, & that porn is a mortar explosion
In the green interior of the human community.

To turn with great relief and some aplomb

Of red and blue lives basking together

Flashing images to the better other brain
In the Italian night off the coast of sleep

part of his legend to loathe all forms of culture

advancing towards the storm-battered coast
