Who lives
in this post-post-modern polyphonic
blitz? Blitz—not
bliss. I love
that anarchy—murder
of the omniscient
narrator. Reliable, or
not. Or,
is it an assassination? Did she
(or he) hold
political office? Or, at least
run? I could be running
to go to Hell
on time. I have a VIP seat, but
I should get
going. Don’t want
to miss a word. Think
of all those voices shouting
out of turn
their individual versions
of what it means
to burn in, burn on,
burn out.
