Anacondas
Chilean copper miners create the Guggenheim museum
in a pseudo-philanthropic pre-modern age
of in denial, megalomaniac, evangelical, obsessives
The code words change in Fortunes’ pages to
structural adjustment,
hedge funds,
leveraged buyouts
as the Old Rich sneer
while Mr Jones voyeuristically reads
about rich lifestyles in manipulative glossy magazines
and politically ambitious media monsters
compete to rule the world
bored accumulating unearned capital and workers’ souls
Victory to the Chilean Miners. !
