(too angry to scream)
how might one
possibly avert
the contagion
of this horrific
spectacle?
entertain
ment has
given us
drama, it
has given us
comedy, and
in return, our
teevees have
answered the
question we
never even
knew we had
by giving us
a most unreal
reality. and
what has
that also
given us?
a reminder
of what we
never knew
we wanted?
at night, or
during inter
mission, i
listen to each
siren, imagin
ing inevitable
doom. should
i try to sleep?
or should i
get back to
the show?
when i final
ly dream, i
dream in
parables.
there is a
fine line
between
embarr
assment
and tragedy.
