STATUS REPORT #2


On The Status Of GROUP

Oh, to flay the bugs

from the stiffened pages

of a hundred million Group routines

dripping the filth

of uncharted sweat...

I chew the life strands

from my fingers

as I watch the group entities

NOSHO in listing

and I cower at ATN

waiting for each to SHO again,

waiting

for the North Pole

to blossom with mustard plants

waiting

for snow to cover Egypt

waiting

for Jesus to give me a cheque

waiting

for my forgotten entities

to SHO their faces

on my screen

waiting

until I SCALE RESIZE

in defeat...
