I had a couple pages with some random jotings so I fixed em' up and made a poem. I trashed a lot of it as well. It's not quite what I wanted though.

4th of July 2020
Skinny soldiers
roaming skyhigh streets
guns welded to hands
conform glued to their foreheads
alleyways and parking lots
brick gardens surrounded by metal oceans
junk
cement
modernism
jive talking elephants and dead donkeys
there is no energy
smashing skulls
spraying blood
it's new
lets memorialize war for raw good
I've pawned my gardening gloves for work boots
Lady Liberty is a needle labeled war
Scott Key is forgotten
Fuck Manifest Destiny - We own the heavens!
robotic vaginas
a world run by sex
orgy spelt 01000101001
forgotten fat lips of Ginsberg
experimental FDR and the Twilight Zone
electric guitars and marshall stacks replaced by 16 key casios and headphones
water closets stay the some and the same
what happened to table gatherings and farmer morals
old theater with brick wall paintings gone for closet entertainment
call dr. ctrl alt dlt
