Poetry. Reflections on the individual and community flash in this urban web of buildings, technology and news bits, where the city looms and the inhabitants submit. Bits and pieces of Abu Ghraib, the Iraq war and 9/11 will be recognized, along with 24/7 newscasters and U.S. political figures welded together as one gigantic talking head. Paranoid neighbors, fashion rags and Walmart also take the stage. A menacing yet cartoonish shark probes the waters, a projected sign of the times. Yet within this hyper-reality a desire weaves, searching for a place in which to land, Unpoured like animals from the ark we became friendly / like old days, we offered each other liquid / put away green bills, undid our jackets / clustered.
