Liszt “Les Preludes”
Hitler listened to this the night
his armies invaded Poland.
This was a leitmotif of Ming.
the Merciless, of the
the Merciless, of the
Flash Gordon serial movies
of the thirties. It’s got legs…
all I’m saying…
My father showed me where
Buster Crabbe trained in
Chicago.

I wonder how many poets have started a poem with "Hitler"....
I think I wrote about as an innocuous reference there as I could.
but, ya know, Hitler....crank things up. People only see reality much anymore when they're shocked. That's why Gaga is the perfect reductionist.
I'm putting lots of comments here...I'm wondering how redundant I can get. But, since in my view, poetry is merely talking to one's
self for the benefit of oneself and others.....at some point, life could become art...leaving me out of this, but, Jarry, Dali, Cocteau,Hemingway, Morrison, Hendricks...how many times will Dionysius rear his golden locks?
Sure, let's make this an internet/event/venue, on my little swirl of the Mandelbrot, and, I write on here,,,now...in the midst of Liszt,
not a live stream or a twit, no....maybe just because the vastness
is more vast than it seems....and, are we expanding mind by artificial means? So it seems.
