whatever he is
suggests that he is not
whatever he is not
he might be
this statement is true
the above statement is false..
ready yourself for the latest super blockbuster release
your reflection tuned and consumed by the black mirrors
the next infamous assassin
soon the dark artisans shall spin
so pulverise the popcorn
comfort-blanket the layers of doom..
his silhouetted leant-on aspect
traced in snack-bite monochrome
so similar to the previous lone-loners
central casting chosen outcast/ plastercasted distractor..
secatuer a sapling-gunman
gestated from the covert coven mother
and 3..2..1..to zero
one stoner-manchurian matryoshka onion..
and action..
and on cue
the gaudy carnival bandits offer schadenfreude salvation
the dribbly armchair pews
float the deepest subterranean spacemen..
so here
the super a-list lone gunman
delta-glory for the new let-loose loser
the son of a man who swatted away something
a molecular coalescence of inconvenience
the vine crawls sand grains..
assassin citadel-fashioned
another woven star-crossed naut spun
fluidly loomed of crystalline smog..
his diligent hidden-hand handlers
will carefully leave behind
the glittery easter egg-trail of compelling cluezzz
for the newzzz..
diaries with circled dates and codewords
modish novels
replete with annotated scribbly swirly block capitals
smirking witnessez
and smeared-on tv expertz..
all the dark comedy
the cheat-sheet intel
the now standard ai-generated manifestos
with all the dogwhistle motifs and tropes
fictive orchestrations as familiar
as the celebrity-infested docudramas
sympathetically supporting ads for pet goat deodorant..
the cookie-cutter choreography
the staged and taped-off abodes
then the checkerboard cameras roll
manifestos miraculously manifest here
drop-shipped on basement floors
for spectral ushers to rediscover
as minerva twi-twoos by the revolving doors..
every-which-way self-incriminating
absolute guilt reaffirmed
never afraid of cliches
such pax-bollocks already parabolic
the trial outcome for the vacant-eyed man-child client
a foregone conclusion..
ah yes
it was definitely him
absolutely no question about it
nothing left to interpret here
as for modus operandi or method
details mere details
roll out the absurd cut-and-paste
blow dust off the hotplate script
they never seem to notice..
fizzled on the hotplate..
substantially mentally unstable
operated completely on his own
always alone
repeat-to-self always alone..
so similar to the many previous infamous deranged nutcases
loaded-up to slay-to-order in public places
hidden in plain sight
that is how the dead-eyed high-functioning low intelligence fools
evade all the sophisticated radars
every. single. time.
trust the deployed expertz..zz..zz..
the expertz..zz..zz
the influencerz..zz..zz
of a deep overmind
lurking below the waves buzzcut by the contriving sharks
the fishy body bags protectively encircle
eschewed by seagulls
smarter seagulls who disregard faked facts
generously dropped from the temple of black helicopter pilots..
transmit the need for another budget increase
shoot for maximum media effect
the cryptocracy must be protected
the hegelian dialectic on fluoridated psychedelics..
wide asleep
the public willingly goes along for the ride
as their snoring bite-size eyes triple glaze
pattern recognitionists peer easily through the negligee
as normie stormtroopers mud wrestle
with their snagged-shadowland minds..
the zombied for the zombiefied
the post-hypnotic patsy for pillow fighters
all the minds partitioned/ compartmentalised
trigger/ unsee
shatter to numb
remove batteries
yin/ yang
bin/ binliner
next/ next..
real dead bodies not always included
vanish pulsed
but for the assassin
whose power-showered mind
programmed to self-destruct
no such luck
unless..
unless he is a staring inside actor of the project
in which case
as the phantom character dynamo vividly remains animating
the actor gently exfoliates mask off/ off-mask on
and casually strolls off stage
again..
