CAPTAIN FACTOR X

u sit at your computer
recently knighted
at the center of a vortex
of groceries, socialization, physicians, teachers
cops and cunt and cock and revolution and redemption
ready to poke your little head in all over

a reluctant revolutionary
aware the sewer system goes down and millions die


a buffalo soldier
in the war for america*


in your medicine bag:
as much tv as humanly possible
comics books concerts doobies dogs cd's dvd's dj's and cats
mothers and fathers and lovers
they are your powers
make strings of beads
named for your parents statesmen pets children lovers passions
wear them proudly around your neck
explain them to all who are wise enough to listen


join THE GRAND CONVERSATION
help ETCH OUT OUR ethics
in this universe of mysterious dark matter
not caring
knowing
or worrying about whether they are for real
for real keys
to a realm of savage grace
... have a little faith.



stand and point
at your toxic dumps real and spiritual
in your neighborhoods
in yourselves
report the problems
to a crusading warrior monk
we are now armed
and ready and lusting
to serve and protect
and party and get us all some hot, juicy PEACE
