BAH!AMERICA!

a japanese saying
goes: "you should
see the AH! in
things..."

i see "the AH!
in things"
sometimes

but most of
the time i see
"the BAH! in
things"

how could you
not
in america?

can one see
the AH! in
the smog over
new york city?

can one see
the AH! in
a police cruiser
waiting to
ambush a driver?

can one see
the AH! in
all the pavement
that smothers
the earth?

in consumerism
in alarm clocks
in cell phone towers
in skyscrapers
in traffic
in banks
in bogus holidays
in billboards
in mickey mouse

etc...

BAH!AMERICA!
