SELVISHNESH: reading for the road

   


EISEN-MARTIN: “Do white men actually even have leaders? / Are all white people white men?"

Cum together, right now!



The US highway system and its MFA programs
share nascency. Two fronts of an anti-red raid

exacted through parcel post.

Anthropocene severance package or

cultural impairative. ‘Elves’! Or else

Lolita, some
white girl
deep

in the mags,

who is dreamt
but does not
dream.
