For Example, the Veg-A-Matic as a Bible on "Naming": A Found Poem on the Rules of Marketing
what is seen
is more biblical
than biblical naming,
to name one why
of exponential
therefores
today is the only
now of the rest of your
life there is a blade bath of consequence
(exclude all feelings
of product repugnancy)
in loving to chop up items
today
consumerism
rules all
rules
*
naming continues to blue-balloon across central coastlines, a category 5
meta prophylactic
& a package of the art/icle the
de- & re- branding (of the U.S. Ranch Herd)
to create is to
who
as what
how as who
who as where
when as who
whose as 1996 memory?
scent of earth in slits
of lines
a coyote stealth
is a dawn of tax columns
over mown timothy grass,
the cows always
lowing in
decimals
of the silent winds
of romance
over the certain
dollars
lost prairie
& actuary

it is found in grocery aisle 6 Madam:
the whetstone, which is a sharpening
in its turn
for tools of (an)
exclusionary
noun/verb exi/
stance
in the store-story,
consumers did not ask,
why are the Beatles singing "I Wanna Hold Your...
(everyone knows what appendage of body will come
as sung in the chorus next, eh?)"
you will always know exactly--what--
is the rest of that (song) no?
*
they are a series of cuts,
Irigaray says it best at length
(how: paper money causes paper cuts)
these namings the mind is not the heart
is not the kidney filtering (more naming)
hew tendencies and tensions and sting
of naming in theory
and the real buzz is Magritte's pipe
is never the/a/his/her hat
where living is naming's other
praxis
even while reading/consuming the book of John
Berger, "Seeing comes before
words..." since cash

Dear Harold Bloom,
Oh please hear my prayer. Let me humble myself to you, and endlessly grovel in your Humped-up presence. Since you are the real master of canon-making, hierarchical rankings, and--what was that other thing?--mistaken priorities, or no... it was called "misprision"--will you lower yourself to link to my little bloggie? I promise my bloggie is fully trained and knows when and where it is acceptable within all hierarchies to take a dump. Thank you in advance for your kind and authoritative, disciplinary attention...
Sincerely,
Every Yours (is) Always
