denizens
under the undertow the
underfoot
we Polis A present this
report
of thanksgiving bc
| work | not for the labor
of the denizens you are

yr Polis B | rev to axle

 

displaced Polis B bodies | climate
refugees | smashed against The | Wall |
of exception | bc Polis A is a state
of exception | 400,000 Polis B bodies
living in the dry corridor | desert
dungeons six centuries in the making |
no hubo lluvia | there is no rain |
even that has been privatized |
they carry soylent tortillas | small
vials of mescal | & yes brazos for harvesting
data

 

dear Polis B | you were | there | see you | still | still? | kiss yr wall | & leave | leave!

 

thursday praxis veers rev to axle | rev
to axle | for yr Polis B abode | dusted
adobe swallowed by The | Wall | rising
clouds of dust | wind | the displaced
& pillaged | listen up denizens | farewell
to yr polis | is this | dust | is yr warfare |
not bound by The | Wall | walls here
were wire | before the wars for water | now
the unification of the market blankets
praxis | & the climate has spoken
for the elimination of surplus
Polis B bodies | no scarcity
or precarity in Polis B | denizens | yr
book of prophecy now clouded w. huesos |
& this “beautiful” wall | makes bitter
enemies |

 

no | you don’t | never saw |
never | sizzle | gasp | popping
wind in Polis B | dust in eyes |
dust not privatized | that dance
to The | Wall | limned pace | you | there
touching The | Wall | hot steel | ravens
above | tangling | now diving |
to be one of those winged bodies |
in Polis B | focalizing the apparatus |
automatic | yr Polis A automatic |
The | Wall | surveilled | drones
400,000 displaced bodies in Polis B |
thirsty | slice the saguaro | & a weapon
will appear | Polis B | a target | sizzle
lifeless Polis B bodies stacked | in trailers |
violated bodies | spectacle |
twisted | as the infrastructure of demands
for precarity | lifeless Polis B bodies |
desiccated lips | eyes | crosses to commemorate
the dead | this logic
calls for expendable Polis B bodies | B
is for bodies | burned
for bitgold | brazos to harvest
the data of Polis A | & to stimulate
warfare | for growth | Polis A
spends more on hypersonic weapons
& autonomous systems than . . . than?  |
to enforce Polis A’s | in Polis B the seeds
planted | but the rain never arrived |
prayers unheard | much greater occurrence
of dry seasons
| scrambling of seasons |
only paper roses | listen | on this planet
the wet gets wetter | the dry gets drier |
the rich | richer | the poor | poorer |
Polis A | activity | octopus cloud |
anthropocene | & regimes of surveillance |
razor wire walls | guns | incarceration camps |
marched into advanced precarity | in Polis A

 

Polis B bodies | endure | thirst &
broken families | to break Polis B |
Polis A border drones | programmed
to fire | at any bodies that move |
then dissolve the bodies in acid |
technique learned from Polis B transnational crime
syndicates from earlier in the century | Polis A
unleashing its wrath | growing number
of displaced bodies | Polis B | uprooted |
desperate |

 

denizens | you see you | still?  | & intensifying droughts | rising seas | mega storms |
snapping vertebrae |

 

see | from this vantage over The | Wall
of Polis A | cages of rocks | strange illusion |
grimed walls | booming market for walls |
age of walls | age of asymmetric warfare |
w. border walls replacing
intercontinental ballistic missiles

 

 | Polis A | x05x

 

yr Polis A citizens | Polis B denizens
