an dialogical poem of government properties; or, a change we can maybe believe in? yes, maybe we can.

MILTON JOHN 2
DOUBLEPIPEDOUBLEPIPE
Of Stephen Hawking’s wheelchair-anus...

STANFORD MYFOOT
I don’t think that’s relevant enough, DAVID.
that can only be a side-pipe.

MILTON
I CAN DO WHAT I WANT. DOUBLEPIPEDOUBLEPIPE.

STANFORD
Paleenus, my lord of government,
the subprime-properties which unfold wood,
seeming meaty, deflect, bleach, and recourse;
then no more remains but your sufficiency-ass, able.
You're as pregnant as Art,
and malpractiss hath enriched any that we remember.
Lent him our terror, dress'd him with our love,
And given his deputation all the organs
Of our own power: what think you of it, DAVID?

MILTON
Hill spent much of his eighties and nineties
not writing, nor not publishing, poetry.
He was ill, depressed, a thoroughly miserable wretch, one heard,
had suffered at least one heart attack;
a gloomy realisation of the old

STANFORD
He is now into the third volume of a newly found voice,
verse-like, an Old Testament prophet having a bop at a disco,
namely that blind patriarch, Abradash,
who propheshized the apostate, Nathan, as you may recall,
raped by god (an improper noun) and maybe Geoffrey hill.

Moilton
DOUBLEPIPEDOUBLEPIPE.
10 movies screaming across that... that Internet;
and what happens to your own personal Internet?
I just the other day got...
…an Internet was sent by my staff
at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday.
I got it yesterday. Why? Why?

STANFORD
Because it got tangled up (in blue?) withal.

MOULTON
these things going on the Internet commercially...

STANFORD
…So you want to talk about the consumer?

MOLE
NO. Let's talk about you and me.
I want to make it big again.
We use this internet to communicate
and we aren't using it for commercial porpoises.
We aren't earning anything by going on that internet,
one can charge anyone for massively invading this world of the internet
No, I'm not finished. I want people to understand my position,
so I'm not going to take a lot of time:
Those people. I’m done.

SANFORD
want to deliver vast amounts of information over the Internet?
You gotta understand, the Internet is not something that you just dump something on.
It's not a big truck.
It's a series of TOOWBS.

NAILBOMB
And if you don't understand, DOSE TOOWBS can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and it's going to be delayed by anyone that puts into DEAT TOOWB enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.
DOUBLEPIPEDOUBLEPIPE.

SANDY T.
the erection is always relevant. David.
I can quote lines:

MILVID.
Verbate him!

NOT HITLER
I’m not Hitler, I’m different.
We want to appear engage
how about we call it

SNEEZER.
[sneeze]

STANDOFF
yes, let’s call it that:
some ominous soubriquet - ‘walking talking Stephen Hawking’.

REPLIER
DOUBLEPIPEDOUBLEPIPE

STAMINOFF
what’s the first rule of neo-spasmodic rogue taxonomy, David?
don’t talk about neo-spasmodic rogue taxonomy.
what’s the second rule of neo-spasmodic rogue taxonomy?

UPPITY BLACK MAN.
don’t talk about neo-spasmodic rogue taxonomy.
cockrock, cockblock
rock out with your cock out.
DOUBLEPIPEDOUBLEPIPE

McBANE
if you leave the erection in, it’s not relevant

UNISON [- the Public Service Union]
if YOU have the erection, it’s not relevant.

PALIN APOSTROPHORD MYFOOT
how might I compare thee, gov. palin, to a Volkswagen Macbeth?

MILTON£
ask not what-now?

NOT-PALIN
it’s shit-hard, isn’t it, DAVID:
ask not what your vetting process can screw for you...

JOHNNYBOY
…Che Guevara speaks!

MAYBE PALIN
Not ‘Che Guevara speaks’,
‘Che Guevara it is written’
whimsy is immediately appealing, immediately appalling...

STAMMERER
… immediately p-pickup-p-a-p-p-a-pickup-p-ap-p-PALIN.
each morning, a new set of poofs did he crash
(did he wash?) because he mistook the erection,
the original arrow, in its title -
him and his death-bad VETTING.

NON-SAM
John Kerry, see, he’s a big vet
bigger than Howard Dean, the little doctor.
‘Crazy’ Joe Trippi (he’s trippy) is a sheep-farmer in his time off
it’s amazing - so many of the political consultants breed sheep.
we even had dogs for Dean "I love Dean too. ruff."
the Dean scream - less like a raah (more like a roar?)
a change we can maybe believe in?

BIERD-O
yes, maybe we can.

NAILIN’
you’re not v. good at this, are you, DAVID?
I disagree with her idea that women’s lives were meaningful under...

STAVE-ID
…I walked out of the talk because it was true,
speaking as a poet; to be honest, romanticising -
as a primitive form of life, like an in-sect.
