Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

and then they built chicago
piled one nature upon the other
trees became two by fours
bison became cows
cows became steaks
and wheat became a golden stream
coursing through hoppers
filling boxcars, riding the rail
all aboard!!
they altered time itself
according to the logic
and geography of capital
winter and summer, the tempo of life
saddled to the iron horse
they thought they could rule it all
but they were only paying rent
it's the little things that run the world
the molecular, the sub-atomic
the syndicate of the small
that stretches like a skin across the planet
who know absolutely nothing about eastern standard time
or the price of porkbellies in the next fiscal year

What a capture, finely done.

thank you. i revised it a bit - i think it's less herky-jerky now.

never trust a pork belly futurist.....are they like seers than read intestines ?.....
yes the whole notion of the futurists market is preposterous.....anyone that spends a minute listening to financial advisers should be committed to an asylum.....the roaches will rule the world !.........fine work professor.....

grazie, professore saw

thanks walt
