New fields
New creatures that inhabit them Grazing without restraint Hummingbird speed jets At your part, at your station You were assigned or you created or both The mongoose manipulates rough it's octopus tentacles The machine smiles or frowns These new fields Vast and overwhelming in intricate boundlessness Like a spider surveying angles And a hawk calculating trajectory Anti-profitless-grazing Scowering ravaging scathing pressure and suggestion Minute role, in outward power to encounter systematic reigns on randomness Inward power never more than outside this moment Never more than what powers to, you have at this time Unconsciously never counts, consciously turning, shifting, controlling Adjusting and re placing my mind re-angled line of sight Re-focused, re-considered just plain just colorful and vivid These actions slowly and bit meal re-forming my consciousness and re-calibrating what's worth it Proportion, relativity as a question to myself The perspective and what it's based on The interface and what it's buttons are The outside game learned and inside infirmities dismantled The remnants of the lower rank notions, concerns and cognizance The brush cleared out of the way to see the forms of the forest floor And more easily follow the trunks to the canopy The holy catch, or game or crop, sustenance and sacrament Regions' fields, One grand field The preditor and the prey the same vain creature Yet the superstitious commoner calls them by mythical names The fields the accountant of the governor Plots out points The output and material organization, all looking good on paper Seize and summon the world One great field with numbered numberless men One great whip One inventory Measure the normal time it takes them and Force incremental productivity to elevate gains Remove the personal vested element of trades and Just put them in a machine-like segment of an assembly line Marshall creativity for every end in mind We got the money, the talented of the new fields will stand in line at the one oasis Marshall the best to man the ranks Feed the masses their hooks and their tv mana Instil pretentiously one size fits all super narrow-minded modus operandi © 2014 Ben |
