PROJECT X O and Etc.







Sunday the first of October
Art installation and
graphic considerations
 along Washington Street



This one is a green tea-bagger


Nice refraction


The calendar in inexorable
but mild daylight prevails



In situ
re-refracted
in the detritus
of a former XO vessel


I left the bulky tea bag in
so no one would assume
it was pee,
just healthy green tea


Down at the Port
the Ferry gleams
as it steams toward
San Francisco


Some palaver on the water
advice to a rafter
not a rescue



Something ineffably
buoyant in the bustle
come October

The afternoon take a macabre turn


On the menu
at the fear factory


Fear of the young


New Wave sidewalk


Two-tone
food wrapper


At Oakland Metro
Opera House



The gruesome posters
have evaporated
into the matte black gloom



A last two
include last night,
I've been under the ice
but I found my way out

And one huge poster
for HOODSLAM


Because this is where
the wild things go

The bestial



Yikes


The feral


Venomous times

Loud-mouths
and masochists
of every sort



Back to Washington


Strangeness


This is all new

lapels, a skirt and hairy legs





Open to interpretation









Nice lines anyway
pleasant new optics
for my strolls past



Between thought


and expression







Unauthorized street art
prevails
and in fact rules


Taggers gonna tag





Hmmm,
something planned for the parking lot
next to the XO location
Development never sleeps
when there's the smell of napalm
or capital returns
in the air






Green Tea XO
in place
now in the shade 
an hour or so lady







Drink me







The day capitulates



The Sinister
Ministry



Sex traffic of the underage
is  hideous and seriously criminal,
We pay police a good salary
to fight such depravity,
But Oakland cops used their
punitive authority
over a young girl
to share her among police departments
Including Richmond cops,
Contra Costa county cops,
a soon-to-retire-cop in Alameda,
Then an Oakland cop committed suicide
 after the suspicious death of his wife,
He turned the girl out originally
and exposed the cop sex ring
in a suicide note,
Higher up cops interrogated the girl
blamed her for the suicide
and browbeat and threatened her as
 she destroyed evidence
on her smart phone in front of them,
The chief resigned
the prom queen mayor
 called it all as "frat-house behavior"
The hired "angry school principal" type 
who employed the Trump tactic of acting
 offended and angry at legit press questions,
She promoted the wicked bastard cops
instead of any punishment anywhere,
No they will have long long
retirements at even higher grade pensions

How ficking noir
