construction-sight 8

lite artillery, to fire thru streets,

new jersey,  surprise;  cranes, bulls dozing,

huge drills for artesian thirst,

building, & war:  industrial & complex..

matrices across an anywhere;

piles of bricks, waiting for an idea

pipes & lexical matter facing unclear beginnings

a deep well

to pump up ...

         place, presence

& other raw materials

place?  it’s

something you move

away from like caterpillar

treads cycling over

surfaces of earth

security guards     gerunds

watch,     clock

construction-sight 7 : no net loss of forest canopy

breaking up the pavement

clunking away big chunks of older work

heavy machinery comes & goes

mooing of impresarios

so this is what they call

not freedom   what is it?

oh yes creative destruction

they mean destructive constructions

w no net loss of glaciers (we promise)

also an end to the heavy threatening oppression

caused by solidarity & community;

he got zombified & had to be iced

neutral abstract underscores

(zip clung, urban & legendary—

move thru air

construction-sight 6

not that it doesn’t all go

strangely, 8 or 10 firms

floating thru like dimmer-canons:

grey gravel piled up in amidst the brown dirt

contrast goes fail to form, last

picking up, grand conjuring-up supposed

flow tile manage strategy;

a continual tarp is always closing over the earth,

or,

the plane flew near an altitude

as at an air-show

show don’t tell

typing toward a right-wing diktat

or, ship:

obscure plywood structures keep disappearing

bounce toward a cornerstone

untechnical & imprecise

construction-sight 5

that term came in when you could hear the patterns

shifting, so that people

had to talk about stuff like that:

the verbal as source-material for material sources

or: something

trumps resonance

lots of little vehicles

clustered round a flat open surface:

meaningful contribution to incomprehensible

ebb & work flow

PVC piping    left in medium-size piles

distributed over & responding to

the production of shifty

chemical by-products

construction-sight 4 : layering down

you keep dropping the level

down & down, as in a modulation

spread across slightly different

geotemporal strata,

like each moment finding a cartoon fossil

input

to the sociological explanatory model

would be, for us,

a brief but telling account

then eventually you build the hole back up

into a structure

but meantime the busy ness

periodically slithers for several moments into

a waiting

with people

standing only over to one side

construction-sight 3 : building an enigma

not that you can see, quick

odd lurch to the center-left

pure pop structure

pre-fabricated facade

what they call a building’s skin

seen as often being torn down as being put up—

axis of a rotating body such as a planet

you displace earth

you disearth place

to hammer up

off on a slant

a place   structures lives
