Chocolate Mao
About the design
on April 21, 2005
When I feel I have no inspiration I just download porn... nooo... I actually dig through my sketch books, look through old Illustrator files, check out work by other artists/illustrators/painters/musicians, anything to get the brain ticking again. Well, I was working on a project that involved world leaders , infamous world leaders about 4 months ago, one was Mao Zedong. I also had an image of a cow that I needed to do something with.. MAO... COW... MOOO ... mad cow... yes I know I could have used GW or a panda face, but I just wanted to be somewhat original.

Why not exchange your present location
for 35,000 square feet of poetic space?
Stokyo
Marks & Spinsters
Mao's little red soldiers
felled by boulders
the silenced children
under the cement
There is color in confusion
Rescuers in red and red and yellow head-gear
darting like frogs
troops in a swirl like broccoli
like spinach
Are you going to stand
atop a pile of rubble
expecting a payout?
Chinese rescuer tree frogs
360's three hundred sixty degrees
goes around and around........
Try and smile
The hour glass swings to upside down
now entering the health and beauty zone
I am your all day action hero

the thing which unites
the entire world
is langauge of bodily motion
of humans while engaged
with the cell-phone
Toiling in the fields in sight of the train.......
Some silly superstitious people

I want to be able to afford a ticket
to the self-contained self-consuming orgy
in a moment of instantaneous replication
out pouring
an outpouring
a pouring out
of grief
in a Guangzhou
shopping mall;
where a sim boy
where two real girls
where one real and one sim girl
brought a real boy
where three
sims sat together fo a repair diagnosis
outpouring
an outpouring
an outpouring of grief
Mao's little red soldiers
felled by boulders
S/Pacific Place
Bang & Oulfensive
a S/Pacific Place
A Shimmering Concept High
This moment of space
this one here
what a way
it would have been
to begin
It is where the undulating
dragon escalator coils
which were green, gold , and silver flow
but it has all gone bright orange now
the far wall is in shadows
and a particular pocketbook
has twice the remove
what was with the reverse mimesis
{a blonde god is born
and on the move
out , around, and up
up and through
up and up
the moving staircases where the dragons coil
toward the midlevels
this is going to be a chase
in hot pursuit Hotspur
leaves
this route when it is aparently
no longer leading in a hotel or a mall
Sparks Flew
What was with thrice the mimesis?
For the buner is brought back from the glass
holding the boutique back form the arcade
Iridescent innersoles

After a small theater
movie premiere
standing mounts holding boquets
and some tilted over
left outside unclaimed
are the next morning
poicked
by passing Hong Kong women
and perhaps the occasional tourist
including this shopping mall poem of the east poet
who carries on light ornage rose out into the cityscape
and then later leave it along with a twenty dollar HK
gratuity for the maid in departing for Bangkok
The D in Dianne Von Furstenburg
D for Dianne
mirrors the ending bulge
of the escalator's coil
as well as the DVF
I am as specific as I am Pacific

(which reads when published in book form b4 when wu meets hu which by the way is sung to the tune of Who Made Who by ACDC)
Somehow Miss Blau
who rhymed with Mao
was picked up by the poet subconcious and taken to
out to the Shanghai Jazz Corporation oh wow!
So now we bestow garlands
before the red-headed Bhudda Bhuddess of Grayline NYC
as the African-American lady who screams out "what are
you talking about" to this poet
now screams out "what are
you talking about to this poet loder than ever
look at her long painted finger nails and stomps out

As I am woken from sleep
in sleep
by a passing manuscript holding art writer
who says my name
and states that we should hangout
he is with the painter, professor, and prominent Boomeranger
Dr.Barnaby Ruhe who as per his tradition blurts out Lee Klein
which by the way is my name
here I am back in the Spuyten Dyvul, Inwood,Riverdale, Brigadoon dream arena
where I live in an apprtment building with a swimming pool
and all of a sudden asoundtrack plays
'its Six-ten and its" time"
morphed lyrics in a rift with the tune from
Neil Sedaka's sweet little sixteen
it was all a joint production with my mind
for it is time it was time to get up
from restful slumber
but it all allowed me to be woken up within a dream
but yet to still dream
and then to wake for a breakfest set
of Milo, orange juice, fresh fruit, and Thai Chicken rice soup
and then off to the Royal Palace
after emailing and phone charging duties
and perhaps a swim
Coconut filth
floating maquettes

the incorporated owners of Hoi to court
were not the owners on hoi to court
who took a tenant to court
for among other things
placing a neon sign upon their roof
from which the defendant did derive income

Chinese multi media gambling
multi media slot machines with Chinese and other Asian themes
I loose twenty dollars at Double Dragons
and win four dollars and a penny at double happiness
than look up and see the Asian bistro shine
I shall dine at shrine

it was very preety
creamy white
with a tan tinge
on its' main coat
with brown and blackish features mixed in on its face
It was mostly docile
and laid down on a rest of glass
the enclosure was all glass
below it were some pebbles
mostly ornamental
which closely corresponded tot he coloration of the cat
which would sometimes half roll around
or walk a few paces
and sometimes stretch and yawn

high on a top floor
at the central mall in bangkok
a green and white upholstered restaurant
which serves vietnemese dishes
with black and white drawings on black and white dishes
and a waiter whose throat has been cut
and has been bandaged up and left in stiches

an explosion in a fireworks factory
re-recorded
an explosion in a Chinese fireworks factory
like an explosion in a Chinese shirt factory fire
like an explosion in a facilty
which is in mainland china
and makes firwirks
so now not in other word
missed the entertainment
be will surely be coming back

the pineapple has exploded
or the woman is in the ruffled shirt wide open
the Chinese restaurant jazz club
perhaps the only one of its ‘ kind
one of a kind
unitl it opens another in a poem we should find
green walls, red walls, white trim
chocolate fudge icing leftover atop whipped cream
atop melted desserts
suburban candy boys a lacrosse player in purple and gold
like a Minnesota Viking
aso much more to my liking
the phat crystal pyrmidical structure of pleasure
vast nipples from nature
the tear out the draping on this pedestrian misshapen
the backend the frontend the weekend
not off the deep-end the shadows and light somehow
deepened we will not remain weakened

at the back end of a most vaccated part of the mall
a qi gong accupressure parlor

does wonders for the well being
for the creator of this poem
