SUBLIMINAL SYNTAX by Wayne Mason

       Query=
     Singularity > Hope

     Networks with melancholy computers
       or
            other machines w/biological
   intentions
     (outsource government conspiracy);

               Is it your
               technological
               blood visions?

Invisible utopias

  Users wield
     metaphysical hardware
               open yet, age was insatiable
               some technology
            sentient
       pessimistic

Imagining flesh
               & digital bondage

UNTITLED by Craig Scott

pan leftways & around the backside for yr panhandling gods
w/their magic toes & superstar lice

hijacking yr church’s organ sheet music
selling the soles of 1 hundred feet

immature insolence
urbane odors

they don’t know yr name
there’s milt in yr green tea

it’s Thor’s day
it’s a steel cage death match vs. yr brain’s rationalizations

ration nation
rats ions zing

any1 who cares
can have it all

their promises & lies
their offspring & their dead

the godless move on
the gods move to the philippines
