DAS IST GUT:
iPod in hand, music endless
going round, revolving like discs in a jukebox
technology is fun, if it works properly
music non-stop, and emails sent
computer world in motion
message board in cyberspace
fascism in inner space and outer space
censorship on the arts in an artist's space
censorship on art in high places
and fascist states
funky cold medina, I say
jazz and techno, rock 'n' roll
house rhythms and tribal drums
industrial kling-kling on sampled steal pipes
punk-like snarls, and operatic soundscapes
mixed drinks and cabaret performers with a Germanic stance
striking a pose and dancing the tango
the songs of caberats in Paris in the 60s
and of Weimar Berlin
and American standards
and musical theatre pieces
a sight for wide eyes
a sound for open ears
a sensation to speak or write about
as it fuses into the eardrum
this is my idea of heaven
this is heaven even in our own personal hells
