American Holidays

Amber waves of telecommunication
in frosted glasses unobserved—

The commercial multiverse
where Bob Dylan
drives a Chrysler and shoots pool
in a bankrupt American city
talkin' American folk, American cool,
talkin' heavy hitting change
while thumbing singed denim pockets
talkin' assembly line reconstruction
of a union divided
by those willing to buy their revolution
and those who'll die loyal
only to dissent---

and the air time cost six comfortable Christmases
Detroit would never see.
