Beauty Is the Infant of Terror (2024)
Jacob Bacharach
Some of Trump's rapid-fire choices surprised his own staff.
"There is a total atmosphere of chaos," said a person who spoke on the
condition of anonymity to speak bluntly. "No one knows where the leaks are
coming from, and nothing is realuntil Trump announces it."
Nothing is real until Trump announces it.
The sky is not the blue you think you see.
The autumn wind? The frost? The barren tree
rattling against the eaves? You must admit
they are not there; their being’s counterfeit,
formless as the void before reality
breasted the darkness with one Let-There-Be.
Well, LMFAO. It don’t mean shit.
Who, if I cried out, would hear me now
among the anonymous orders of his court
already telling tales and casting blame,
each self-serving Morningstar-to-middlebrow
media interlocutor: in short:
nothing changes; everything’s the same.
