Smelly Onion

A Phobia,

caught between New York City

and Los Angeles.


A genealogy of slaughtered

animals-

blood

and

gangsters.


a place with a fragile identity

a untalented child trying to

please its parents.



its already been done

yet will be done again


nothing new here.


Hitler could have conquered

America if he hit this city first.


no vision

narrow minded

is

 CHICAGO


the same

the predictable

is

CHICAGO


in human anatomy

chicago is the appendix




your not sure why you need it





but its there.
