Exertion of my parts deformed me. Organic diet has reformed me. Food raised in nature’s own bird droppings From Easter Island rock outcroppings, With queen bee jelly cells for toppings. In youth I was a virtuoso; In middle age no more than so so. My co-stars thought so; now I know so. Home movies, video camcorders… The squares were pushing out the borders. I gave myself my marching orders. An implant might have kept me going Some few more years, but always rowing Upstream. I chose full stop to slowing. Programmers replicate the motions, Augment the time scale. Sicker notions Also they add. Perverse love potions, As one might think of them. But human Responses too are programmed.

There is not space to list the prisons we are in. Pickpockets, hustlers, dealers, we became that news We sold, if on the inside pages. Poor excuse For urchin enterprise the vending that replaced. A coin box is a generation gone to waste And cannot give out change. Too often vandalized To turn a profit, it becomes a recognized Icon of inner city wreck, as in the past We stood for rising expectations, if, at last Our cry of “Extra!” covered the laments of lack.

If I were duenna to the world I would inform it Its urges can be dealt with, even as they storm it. The checkrein to attraction is the eye averted; Elopements are avoided by the house alerted, Or--plucking fangs out of the eager adder-Removing crucial rungs from every lover’s ladder. Desire is said to be insatiable. It isn’t. Self-interest can curb it; folly be imprisoned. Obsession yields to common sense applied with rigor. Failing that, there is the convent, or the trigger.

Heat lightning, summer shower, steaming pavement; And through the rising heat the rippling amber. Rain, rain forest each are where you find them. Asphalt and the sidewalk may be venue Natural as any.

Passion vines, Small holdings--squatters’--thick with maize (a land Reform in place at forty-five degrees).

In centuries of dormancy, a lake Formed in the crater; rains and hurricane Collapsed the crater wall. It was a cold Fast-forward of a lava flow, a bit Pompeii and a bit Atlantis, end Of world and falling sky, as if reversal Showed the elements for what they are.

He’ll be picked up and passed from hand to hand By bathhouse patrons jaded with the tanned. And if the contacts go into their case A blood transparent stares out of his face-The vision’s red, unseeing underside That, blind to its own presence, cannot pride Itself on white eyelashes, see-through iris (Which some will comment on in private diaries, As well as on the fadeout farther south).

Behind the images that say the East is Red The image of the Treaty Port is far from dead. Facades unchanged, an architecture retrograde, One sees the classic houses of the China Trade: Dutch Shell and Dollar Steamship, Jardine Matheson, The chartered banks, and, seized first by the Rising Sun, Thereafter by the ecumenicals, the vast Headquarters of the missionaries, now the last Of Mao, bureaucratic blocks, whatever for, Adaptable for uses in the culture war. I left here as a raw flyboy of twenty-two, But after ten years spent in China, through and through An extraterritorial. I may be still. My adolescence was not that of Jack and Jill, Nor notion of the future Peace on Earth, Good Will. So, over all the intervening decades, drawn Toward ease, I’ve sought the cities where my teens live on. Urbane bush pilot of an urban bush worldwide, I’ve lived a life of side worlds, standing well aside. Macao, Durban (India without the dirt), Lourenco Marques. There, all currencies convert. Hanoi and Saigon, even in the final days A little of the French Concession in their ways Not ever Hong Kong. Those of us who knew Shanghai Will always think of it as where to go to die. Across the river from the 30s Europe wrought, A Deco future mocks the Chairman’s every “Thought.” The short Long March of art and enterprise set free Toward towering hotels and free trade zones to be.
