Are you saying that the CIA exerted mind control by hypnosis,
drugs, cash, fame, clique of critics, or what?

Has anything changed since then?

Is Bellini a codeword for entry? It is often heard around Manhattan
these days, prefixed with vodka, schnapps, rum, tularemia.

Paradigms are over, unless for a banal retrospective catalog,
for tittering amongst send the old shit to hell curators.

Sex, what are you trying to say, art in lieu of?
