“In the beginning was Ignorance, which, after seven days of
metastization, took no rest, not even a nap, and saw that it was good —or, if not ‘good’, at least very effective.”
……………………………………. —Fascist Bible 1:1
it was once considered
….. not good
….. not to know,
.
not good
to be willfully stupid
….. yet not lose face
not good
to purposely
….. un-understand
….. the shape of light and
….. lay of land
not good
to be a dumb ass
….. in gnostic space
not good
to immediately drain
….. each inconvenient drop
….. of fresh new rain
….. which, like elixir,
….. drips into our
….. cranial mixer
not good
to refuse to skewer
….. enigma
not good
to not rip off
….. scabs of old scrolls
….. papered over wormholes
not good
to not burrow to
….. the middle of myth
….. to mine the truth
….. that makes it stick
not good
to unwrap the burial cloth of corpses
….. centuries dead
….. then deny their deadness
….. with occult discourses
not good
to treat the factual as merely
….. fleeting, inactual
to elevate superstition,
….. and call it “Tierras de Dios”
….. land of God
……wherein a singularity
….. is mysteriously split into a trio
….. and god becomes a thing
….. cleaved like other things
….. malleable, meager, mortal
….. —a shade of god’s awesome former self
….. now pale and loudly worshiped
….. in the land of guiltless gringos
