HYPNOTIC (a old poem from my book LUMPEMPANFLETARIAT)


Vulnerabilities "in"
and massive retaliation against
the alchemy of events
in their failed reconciliations
with the inventive sap of facts?

Escalation in the theater, stage
of recalcitrant operations
in the unstable hours of clouds,
contradictory light on the waves
that precede activity at sea.

Discussed vulnerabilities
honor retaliatory fighters
at the time of the caravels!

Radio-goggle units
prodigal among flames
and crossed signals
of interceptions,
pass by firing.

Air envelopes
encrypted by jet
between shots and immobilizations
of targets on the radar, low.
In a moment of alarm:
the enemy's perception
and its image of extra convoys
gangrenating the operations tables.

Interposts and occupied seaside resorts
and all the poetry of the
cemetery aircraft carriers
in a corner of the nocturnal Gulf sea is ready.

Everyone behaving well on
"this side," according to the economic-strategic
and political-electoral calculation
of each bombing
with civilian casualties
shining in the media's cocktails.

The rational image intervenes,
meticulous and soothing
in the scoundrels who nod to each other,
adjusting their tense faces to the
secret wiretaps of the TV networks.

Aircraft carriers swollen by the wind,
unassailable between the breasts of the
news anchor,
in the nightly
mythical representation of the Americans
of themselves, which a
moment of modesty
and constrained self-criticism
keeps from going too far.
