““What are the characteristics of today’s world so that one may recognize it by them?” It pays pensions and borrows money: credit and monuments.”

of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
and will not scare.”
