The fascist intellectual is popular in the West

they point to their terrifying, obscene
dramatic nature. to this extent I might
have regard for them. that I may get
in-between them and change them.

What a fundamentalist when I see
what human beings are for. which is
to say I can fall for the myth.

I don't want you to be my prosecutor.

I'm next in line for the bathroom.

I'm fulfilling a capitalist ethic:

making the best of things. The cafeteria
has an aspiration of belonging

the traditional forks
for my own suicide.

I may have disappeared once.

I may have owned a factory
with unnatural walls. I find
these are the terms that the banal
has left

like a lost paradise. The picture plane
of Hollywood signs, and stains
in a book with their own table
of contents. I find the fragmentation
of my former self
left to the enjoyable co. of women.

In this village what pisses me off
is the amnesia for the states.

I find the refineries in Europe monstrous.

I see that Amsterdam has become the same thing
as ideology. The peripheries, suburbs,
in which everything happens

to individuals. To look at the boy
in the poster with manly desire.

The office is closed while you are in Berlin.
We're watching a silent film in which
the clowns are miserable. But they all have
great haircuts.

I have no mind to receive their image
I have no throw away lines.
