The Con Teflon Man

The Con Teflon Man

“Potentially the most dangerous scenario would be a grand coalition...an ‘anti-hegemonic’ coalition united not by ideology but by complementary grievances… “ -- Zbigniew Brzezinski, adviser to Obama

“The primary difference between the Western and Indigenous ways of life is that Indians experience and relate to a living universe, whereas Western people reduce all things, living or not to objects.” -- Vine Deloria, Jr. (1933-2005)

You and I

are the faceless masses

shuffling off to work

every morning.

Hang our coats

in our “Dilbertesque” cubicles;

6’ x 8’ and only eye level sight;

hyper-tense our way home

in the evenings

and remain the targets

of rigorous global puppeteers.

Are you tired

of the daily churn;

of spin doctors;

smoke and mirrors;

and teflon men

who straddle our segmentary

modulation of daily life?

The plaguish

sad state of affairs;

of human manipulation

of our consciousness;

even to the extent

of proxying for anonymous statists.

The permeated world

of panoptic centrality;

the biometric distributed depot

of identitarian residue

scattered through the

heavily regulated dominium.

[new stanza 20201022]

Cozy up to the

full spectrum dominance;

totalitarian democracy

in the New World Order,

as the name implies;

control everything everywhere;

the high seas, land, air, space;

your every single gesture;

consumptive act

and ultimately

your transgressive thoughts.

Long gone

is the feudal renaissance

of coercion and intimidation

via violence and the efficient

methods of social control; political manipulation.

The Americana of segmented

social realms have collapsed

giving way to the blurred

corporatocracy; capital and

governmentality of unlimited

resources; the amoral

amusement to death

by the media.

Reminisce the empty

signifier of “human freedom”

traded for the violent ways

of social control

and the endless; limitless

paradigm of social manipulation.

The faceless grandmasters

rely on the poverty of deprivation;

in our inescapable docility;

our nonviolent compliance;

an accepted coercion;

and a final state of dependency.
