Thrift
Nearly all things

is merely a logical use
of these resources
in appreciation
of their value
their basic
necessity
to our
survival

But even frugality
can go too far-
when...

The sedentary rejuvenated,
Characters clash excellent performant,
Old guards revised and...

Yucatan, etc.

Cortez, DeMille are gone.
It's now the locus
of postgraduate honeymoons,
urban fugues, a minor literary genre.

Knowledge and ejection predispose us
to technological parody--
antique busses, burros, plumbing, pyramids--
as if nothing ever caught on.

There is no CHRONOLOGY, the pace...

The Treadmill
Slowing down the motor,
  running low on gas

The lies, the HOV lane,
  the truth off in the grass
