On Listeningbeing listened to

by the Palantir Corporation

“…peace and prosperity threatens the business model

Vanessa Windgarth – Sept. 5, 2025

This beast inside of me

born and bred where culture

becomes the craft of the coloniser

and where nature must soon sleep

our very own insatiable sleep.

 

This beast inside of me

reared on the savage bone,

broken on the rusty wheel

of a history

disembodied of heart and

with a mind nearly mindless

 

this beast that was empire-born

and brutal-bred

in blood and bewilderment

waking with a snarl

a century's most poisonous ideology

with mask and truncheon and murder

 

now telling me

who i could be, one-day,

a rising star of the swastika, another

celebrity of chaos and cruelty

and catastrophe.                                    

 

This beast inside of me

with its desperate belonging,

in a world surely deranged by

the normality of its excess,

with its paper excrement called Money

and its morbid cunning,

its death cult of Corporation & Congress

knowing nothing of its own dialectic,

its dangerous and sudden demise


now scheduled, and on time

-  just like our own.
