AFFIRMATION

 

surely the solution shouldn’t be less anything less than

the very table setting of love, which makes possible the age

of weeping — ! what a necessary age — what a commitment

to the problem of others, of outtheres made inheres,

which banned queers, blacks, which, is why white people,
            as long as they stay white people,

won’t be getting any sense back. I J S! I’m not out here like

genocide, enslavement, ontological attack. If these here are sentence

parts what I will do is HACK HACK HACK

HA

as long as I am possible, I will not work and if I do work I will not work

for love

chained to money

chained to my refraining

fiscal potentiality.
