I hear America Spieling

your only time is an open mouth Caligula
waiting to speak its present day vernacular
the yawp shits out in laser-jet diction
singing the American experience.

your eager ears beg the confluent prick
geographical waxwork model hypodermic
multiplicity that divides in difference
in levelled term of state unites.

I hear America screaming advent carol song
vanquished thought cut by sermon tongue
lunar ticks Pandora’s box of spatial exploration
yet solemn and silent Alps never intervene.
