corner stone generation

been reading hunter's 
  jagged  segmentary de-linear 
                                   screed roll

" F & L  on    campaign  trail  72 "


  some guy named  fred dutton 
is mentioned often

and
there's 
a  two pronged connection 
between him 
and 
 what started going  
so badly wrong back then 

=====================================


  the fuck foot
wrote a book pre 72
 wizardising about big changes comin


 as more and more
 post WWII cohorts 
pass   into their  majority 

yes 
a  political paradigm  shift was coming 
                                in the 70's

"a new corner stone generation "
rising above america 

"the politics of the seventies 
offer one of those rare chances
to rally a new follwing 
or at least to provoke
a different configuration
out of the immense sector
of younger voters who are still
  at an impressionableand responsive stage 
if an exciting
individual 
or cause  really stirs this generation
it could activate
in numbers 
that make irrelevent any past
indicator of political
partcipiation among the young
and it would then become
one of the few human waves
           of
historic consequence
if 
this still unmarshalled mass
 is allowedto scatter
or a substantial part
of it 
    is politically turned off
it will pass by
as one of the gret lost opportunities 
in american history "


booomers a corner stone generation ?

what a fuckin joke 


lady woodstock and nambo ?

 get it on together ?

doin what ?

a combo 

beer bust/// rut in ?

sure pal....


after nixon's posse  
  pissed out
  the  black  fire in the streets


and after Ford followed 
 our dick's topple 
with an amnesty 
like
he was waving
 a huge foam finger
in  uz woodstockers pusses

did we get 
together with the after elvis crowd?

form  a steel jacketed corner stone generation 

did we go out 
and 
find or build us a new elvis
a gen wide -hero?



no  


 we  just let em lay  
another great gen  halloween mask 
on us 
   
             that grinnin'  baptist gargoyle
                                                  
                        deep dish jimmy  carter 

okay so next cycle......

we 
needed to gather ourselves for the climb 
to the top 

 right?

wrong 

we got  a double scoop of  painted  white face 



  ronnie mc- reagan 


ronnie was our 
franchise friendly
              new dawn 



yup 

 instead of waking up to an  age of aquarius

we woke up  

to 
 yesterday morning
   coming down again on amerika 

as hunter that hapless romantic
  put it before it happened

 we boomers
  have   a fork in the road ahead

we can go down one
and try  
  to remake amerika....
 build  a new  dream 
or go down the other
   follow the dark side
learn to love 
 the  lethal radiation
of the old dream 

 we opted for the road to fall -out ville 

and we've been takin the doses ever since 

and let me be perfectly clear

it was our dark side

woody types dark side

in the culture wars
toward the after elvis folks
everything we didn't do to the "oppresed "

we pulled one the pale face wagery

we drew  the first egregious blood 

with our scorn 
our mighty judgement 

our ruthless condescension 

and we're still at it 
----------------------------
prook:


take this past  november  
        

   we're for sure the alpha generation 
and have been
  for  
             12 years 

12 years we've had
             showin  our stuff 

12 years in  the saddle 
 
we're 
   "the best and brightest
           of the  corner stone "generation 
 
andwhat do we  produce
 as our abb candidate

just that 

an 
anybody

an anbody like us 

an anbody but an elvis lover 

an anybody but a rooked loser 

an anybody somebody 

meaning  
what else is necessary
to beat  
  the most fatuous  
most egregiously negligent
most   water headed 
        wall street
         medicine show sock puppet
                         in a century


after totally disgracing himself
 in the eyes of the  known world 
                   anybody can denign him
                                   a fresh four

what the ding dong hell happened?

 we ran anybody

not a 21st century elvis pol

enough pulpit puke 

----------------------

instead 
lets  go 
and find  this fucker in chief 
of ours 
                   back in  his own  72 selfhood 

feed him the flash forward news
 and  watch him after
 hang some 

till his squirel turned gloat beaver 
gets us to where 
we want to fuck with him
supernatural style

we get to him when
he's  
  on the street
 near a batch of 
          
      raw rising   pre disco nambo-boomer  megatudes 

here he comes by em
just what the lower ordered 
for an ass kick 

hese guys
who's dads are 
being fed red meat 
by george wallace 

and seeing young and shiftless george 
those still unformed citizens
  already part way to job  numbled 
               but still
 part roiling keeds of liberty

say lest stomp this fuckball 
           
cause inside
they're still reachable 
by hells fire 
    
still put-able 
  into   a "fuck him 
                if he can't take a joke" frenzy 

still 
  only  two 
      clean
           hard steps 
from 
strappin a  nixon type
     in a dunking stool  
and drowning
 that putrid rex of the dark side 
in his own vomit  

maybe we decide to  make george 
                  do shit
               against his will
 
make him
   suddenly as he's less then 6 feet away
bend his juggish head
down 
 between  his pknees 
 and smile backass
                up at these proto dead end   wageries 
   bend over look back thru
and smile at em all...


from  between his knees 

make it cocky 
not 
one of those panic-stilted
               babs iz  gonna fuck my ass ones

butone of his  marlborough country smiles
full of unshared privilege  
                                
yup 
lets say we 
force him 
by unnatural forces 
  to really throw the taunt of it 
             out at em 
from down under there  

then make his curly mouth say


" hey dip shits
 how they hangin 

   guess what  giiiiiiiiizzz 

some day 

heh  heh  heh

you'll  make me  yer prez
and i'll fuck you 
like you've never been fucked before ...."

then  just kinda watch what happens next
