FOLDING THE CONCRETE
DOWN
impossibly heavy 75-foot concrete slabs 90 degrees
up in the air
suddenly released from their theoretical
superstring confinement
standing up for an instant
confused over their sudden white light freedom
start their leisurely downward fall to the ground
pulled by black gravity's drafthorse
whumping onto the ground
spurting up brief vertical clouds of jonie mitchell stardust
prefabricated new streets ready for
black metallic condominiums relentlessly blasting into
our space
impregnating the soil where the cows
once stood in luxurious sweet grasses
filthy T1 computer fiber optic plumbing lines
inserting themselves into our land
without permission
technocrat mosquitoes sucking blood out of their
new host
uncorking bottles of lies onto newly shaved
tables of sin
created for the occasion
