the men––when I’d

been out in the cold weather––were

found lying on the street, having

died––from the weather; though

usually being there when it’s warmer

the men

on the street who’d

died––in the weather––who’re bums

observing it, that instance

of where they are––not my

seeing that

*

cranes are on the

skyline––which are accustomed

to lift the containers to or from

the freighters––as the new

wave attire of the man

though not muscular

––but young––with

the new wave dyed blonde

hair––seeming to

wait at the bus stop, but

always outside of the

hair salon

*

the bums––the men––having

died––from

the weather––though their

doing that, seeing things from their view when

they were alive

so not to

be upper class––the new

wave baggy pants––the

man with the dyed blonde

hair––who’s always standing in

front of the hair salon on

the corner

*

the public

figure––as gentle––as

the freighter and

their relation

that

of the man with the dyed

blonde hair and

new wave attire––and

the freighter

*

of our present

president––who doesn’t

know of the foreign

environs––as vacant––and

to the freighter and

his and its relation

when our present

president is in an inverse

relation to them––when there’s

a social struggle in their

whole setting, which is

abroad

the bums––who’ve

died––but could be only when

they’re living––though it

doesn’t have desire, so inverse in

that one setting

*

to their

social struggle in their

whole setting, which is

abroad and its

relation to the freighter

to the person of

new wave attire––that

person’s relation to

the freighter

when the bums are not

alive––at this time––though

were here, not abroad––and

not aware in being so of a

social struggle

*

the man in the new

wave attire––as the relation

of him

being another person––as

the freighter and

his and its relation

the inverse

relation to the freighter

only occurring when that

person is living

the man––who’s

accustomed to

working in the garage––

as having

that relation to

their whole setting

*

I have been––am––

dumb––as the way

in which that would occur––the

bums––not their existence or

dying from the weather––though

the effect of that

for me to

be dumb––to have

been actually stupid––so that

really could occur––the

bums––in an event

so––dumb as an

active relation to

the bums or to the freighter and

the still oil

rigs––on the ocean

*

to the repair of

the car––so inverse in that

setting––though

it doesn’t have desire––of

the present

as the oil rigs––which

are the freighter––on the ocean––pushed

up to be the relation

with me, by my being––am––dumb––their

to have that occurrence

*

to have that––for them, some

people who’d had an attitude

of snobbery––always––so that they’re dumb––when it’s

senseless––that relation with

them

I almost

froze––and realized I

could die from it––when the bums

were in the situation––and then not

caring, though that’s not possible

which had been repaired

––to the car––as I

am––when that’s

senseless––though

it doesn’t have desire––of

the present

*

the bums––

found later––in the whole setting

––though when the car

hadn’t been repaired––and so

their grinding and

movement in relation to it
