The Language Market
Real Estate or
a Wondrous Sense of Wonder
(+ Entitlement?)
Just Propulsive, Really
Cliff and Marie bought
the Chalet Model.
Actually, not much bigger
than their old studio apartment.
"I'm wondering where we'll put
all our shit," wondered she.
"Toss half. Any half."
"Why do they call it that?"
"Why do they call anything anything?"

Class Primer
-She’s got the College Educated Woman
sewed up!
-And he the trailer trash?
-Much much too simple. Non college White
Males and their compliant women.
-Pick your Class Language. It’s all gross.
-We must speak of it!
-Oh? Really? Describing it is promoting it.
Desiring it to go on the same way.
-I strive to be fair.
-That’s a fiction.
-I beg your pardon!
-For everybody. Don’t be hurt now.
It’s so severely Middle Class to
nurse tender feelings!

Economics of Submersion
-You rail about prolix charlatans! But there are over-simplifying charlatans also.
-They’re even worse, since they attract believers.
-Where did all the decent, non-bullshitting men and women go?
-Up the fat cook’s ass!
-Really?
-My salty mother!
-Need more!
-On hold as they fight just to get families by.

Philosophy, at its finest, in, therefore, dialog of sorts
-It’s gotten too involved with scratch-ass preachers,
so...what is the Republican Philosophy anyway?
-Leave us the fuck alone. We’re piling up money here
and don’t need no pansy regulations!
-Soft pedal that and you get the Democrats.
-Unfair! They WILL toss a bone to Poor and
Middle Class.
-Why do you never toss a bone in a roomful
of rapacious Republicans?
-That’s an entirely stupid question!
-I went to college.

Sustaining
Short Political Conversation
Buster, who has remained a Reagan Democrat,
thus Republican, seemingly out of inertia, asks
Lou, "Why are you a Democrat?
“With them, poor and middle class have
someWHAT of a chance. With the Republicans,
none.”
“Not a strong commitment.”
“Mostly against. You?”
“A to Z? Abortion.”
“And Z?”
“See A.”

The Rich
aren’t directly load-
ing taxes on
the Middle Class.
Really, they only know
that they themselves
should pay little or none.
Could give a shit less
who’s eventually stung.
Feeling it beneath
their business.

The Wealthy Buy the Election
to re-seize their
feudal rights.
The Middle Class
lives on its knees,
the better to climb.
Others into the toilet
and, once under the rim,
can’t see loyalists
touting freedom.
