8, 10, say, a dozen skinhead Cooper architecture students
hard-heeled up Park Avenue around 3 AM, wheeled arrayed-
left at 430, and metronomically rained cobblestones at the
Mercedes showroom, shattering glass coats, savaging alpaca-
hide upholstery, hacking computered-metal secrets,
desecrating the Frank Lloyd Wright landmark-castled
machinen-monster-wagens.

Silent alarms blitzed the precinct panel board, dot, dit,
dat, winking eye-blink kreig-chaos at the snoring soundly
sleeping clancy on duty protecting persons and property for
annual salary one-quarter the cost of one racy Autobahn
schwein-wurst getting butchered on Park by baying, barking,
yodeling lederhosened schweinhunds soused on Heinekin and
Schlitz and Pabst and Budweiser and Nietzsche and Gehry and
Eisenman and Leibskin.

Kienholz! motherfucker, the righteous skinne damen and
herren berated the ruined undistinguished FLLW-work grossly
redesigned by a hauty pink-triangle for Mercedes aiming to
appeal to the extra-virgin-manly crowd grown rich on haute
fashion and driving slaves thereto by slave-labored duds.

Drive on, Klein, drive on Lauren, drive on deep into the
loins of ditsy crepe-naped haupt landlords and Lenora
Helmsleys, the ratskeller dozen chanted, twelve butts
mooning Mercedes and the fast-passing-lane fancy of
squeezed-nut designers of luxury and waste.

Design deed done, the blackleather gang jogged back
downtown to Hejduk's Pigeon Cooper, recommitted to all-week
gross-body charrette, again and yet fucking again designing
the redesign of Potzdamer Platzen, Berlin, extra-neo-classic
Mercedes-modeling runway of master-race skinhead Philip
Johnson, archnemesis emulator of Porkpied Autocrat Frank LL
American-apple-pie Big Apple denouncer.
