Dolores, the wind above our head

closed where it can't get
there the words begin

what we call law & le droit

our social involvement
train stations
open cities

our literature

our journalism
jester satire

the world
the old europe
declined in the West

miles davis
arrière-pensée
a land too civilized

assemblies & point of order
amendments & petitions
referendums in the squares

the birth of tragedy & karl marx
la commune dissolved by cannon
our flesh wrapped in three colors

threat
death penalty
altruism

millenial churches
art institutes
academies

by all means
with our head
with our body
