SHOWER
MI CASA ES SU CASA BUT FIRST A SHOWER
Every time I open the screen doors up here on the 4th
floor of urban townhouse painted a now dirty putty
the noise level is extreme: drilling jack hammers beeps
of backing up trucks +the occasional ice-cream man
singing These neighbour Bob daily tries to sabotage:
They keep the goddamned motor running day + night
I don’t care where the children of artists get their fucking
Hagen Dås
Think besmirched Tuscan villa where decadent hipsters
slouch in Indica clouds Weed dispensaries in grey area
since Mayor Tory od’d: man the THC levels are off the
map in nouveau mary-jean The streets of our city have
reached a new level of mean
The microcosm in the macrocosm A platitude used by my
clinical supervisor 20 years ago today (add Israeli accent for
authenticity)
So when the aliens come all green-skinned + midget we will
not welcome them with open arms as was thought mid 20th C
We will instead eye them suspiciously + wonder what diseases
they bring
Later freeze drying them after experimenting on their unborn
foetus’ (alien stem cell research) But in the end it will all be okay
For unlike the naked ape they do not love nor worship a God
created in the image of an AK-15

*the film Psycho proved Hitchcock’s biggest, though the studio
refused to underwrite it. Critics remained divided when the low
budget film had its debut. But audiences immediately responded
to a level of sex and violence previously unseen in North American
cinema.
Spring 2016 a time of bacchanal +bloodlust
