Last Plug-In for Pop-Up

Core sample

Smart phone in amber

Some last thoughts

and remaining image captures

from the Museum of Capitalism

Installed in a temporary art gallery

in Jack London Square it is

on view until 20 August

All boundaries and maps
all flags

cities and wasteland

Addictive capitalist commodities

found along the route

Fifteen cigarettes

on a dead man's chest

Even included
 matches

Note the so-phony

nature theme
not a mention
of disposal of toxic butts

Clever packaging

design

 

The road to hell

is paved with

good marketing

 There was a good swig left

I tried it and felt OK
I of course didn't smoke
any of the cigarettes,
Would I cause more
or less suffering
if I gave them
to a street person?

The Potomac revs up

for another cruise,

Hard to believe it

was once junked

sunk and later resurrected

I listened to the band warm up

but didn't remain in earshot

past a dilapidated

Beatles song

Red white and blue

locked and loaded

ready for action

Love to have the energy

to attempt fishing from such a craft,

I mentioned at my age

you find the guy's boat

going around in circles

and the old geezer missing,

This just happened at Tomales Bay

an old oyster farmer

who skipped the life-jacket,

The young employees laughed

and they were interested but

completely uninformed

about the nearby Museum

of Capitalism,

The older guy behind

the conversation did not seem

to dig the drift of our conversation,

I nonchalantly shoved off

Into the salt water

you go

Kayak samurai

psyches himself up

Off he goes

as seen from my bench

Nativist

capitalism

Location of

the Museum of Capitalism,

Up that red flight

of stairs

Boats go by

boats go by

God blesses America

The National Mall

with white denims

 are in this Summer

The flag seems

to follow you

Generations of inhabitants

of earth

never imagined

how its resources

 would be

better managed

When the Drumpf says

 "jobs"

it sounds like he's saying

"jabs"

Here's your planet

back

blackened

and extracted

The wealth-creators

express their

appreciation

Jewel box with

miniature coffin

Bible

 and carpet

on a wooden floor

Bankster noir

Surveillance technology

is making rapid strides

toward singularity,

Since God doesn't exist,

man has had

to re-invent Him

Artificial Intelligence

cometh with the cloud

Attractive and

informative

take-away lit

A flag hangs

before its mirror image

in a photo

from Standing Rock

Frontline in

 the struggle against the

petroleum-security complex

Police

muscle truck

Total security

provides us

with the feeling

of security
