Neon street walkers roam
the high village, green parrots
nap on high voltage
Someone’s getting a new washer
and dryer; old tv and bball net
left for recycling across the street
Trash collectors, painters
Landscapists, trail builders
All wear neon too
–Someone said TV would produce one hundred million idiots.
–Is that so? What does that mean?
–It means all Japanese will become idiots.
–That would be pretty terrible. But what does it really mean?
