Somewhere on the Silk Road Covid-19 is a crisis beyond doubt - which means mechanisms of shock doctrine - as described by Klein are acting upon the worlds as we - read into this what you want and dream about - without dogma of positive outcomes and non-violent faith keeping. Which geo - ideology is doubling - down right now the minds - media and more are filled - to the brim with single focus - making movement more - easy for certain powers?

a summer night somewhere on the new silk road beneath a shiny silver moon / in a container city that was / more or less the size of Calais / before the crash whispers of young voices and a fluttering of sneakers on grit faster damnit / catch up / keep close to the pounding heartbeat with some quick slits of the pliers / and gone through the fence in an instant / out of the floodlights into the dim / corridors of metal boxes to hidden cargo the next morning / in a Confucianly designed office space / there is a manager with questions / why didn’t the system notify us / immediately / now the birds have scattered / no alarm / and this system is supposed to be state of the art / full recognition get Megvii on the line / those ching chongs / better have an explanation / we all could hang
