An Impressive Denouement

It's the great cosmic joke:
the dramatic revelation our present day strategy
has produced no bold progress.

We've been living in the clouds,
so afraid of stillness, of being disconnected,
that what we once thought were bullet-proof blessings

were only the narcotic of ingenious technology.
And, nobody knew how dangerous it was.
Blindsided and sunk, we wait in line for naught.

The church is closed today, can't ask it's staff
        to break away
from a major cocaine bender at The Four Seasons Hotel
        (soon to be reprised on the Upper West Side)
and work with the blizzard of cross-dressing drunks

who are hyperventilating and freaking out,
but what in the world are we supposed to do?
The good news is the Grammys must be canceled.

Another Terminator Plot

Robots at phony war. Relentless as a Schwarzenegger sequel.
You can’t kill those off—the movies, that is—their explosive
mixture of missiles and working-class novelty. Entertaining,

innovative destruction innocuous as a family conspiracy
on loan from a Stiller flick. The formula (for the robots’
holy war, that is): tough-minded men plotting to bomb

New York, to launch the United States’ salvation
on the Hudson River. It’s old hat, but this new take is
Terminator to death. And the paradox: what if we lose?

Some New Gesture

Peace talks held Derby constantly in terror. President Jordan
—US-backed, the finest of her gender—whipped the daylights
out of reporters, detainees, a prison director.

Her office is military; her photographs, immortal.
There she is in Damascus, tearing down a great arch.
That week she told New Nation the purpose abuse serves:

Geldings did something the Nobel Peace Prize never did.
In every war, some torture is ceremonial.
What a gal! that Jordan. Our enemies abide.

He avoided birthday parties,
for who could know a human year?
As if people were recognizable in a television silhouette.

Instead, worried by the strain of simple hours,
retiring in evenings to celebrate with lights turned out

his wooden summers wore on a long-hand bench.

Swearing Injuries Possible

Sure, it's possible, the research suggests (more or less),
for E. and O. to have swearing injuries. "These fractures
of the brain have mysterious patterns," a spokeswoman

says. "One overnight observation confirmed that women

than the 'Lost' stars or Edward Kennedy. Fractures

of the cheekbones and eye sockets released more fractures
under the brain, events that tend to cause swearing." Women
victims of plastic surgery fatigue from the strangeness less.
