Dreaming in Syndication
by Photios Giovanis
Winter 2003
Loving architectonics multiplying.
Familial synergists.
Non-evidentiary reproductive processes.
Filmic dispossession.
Auto mechanical fibrillation.
Episodal contingencies.
Todays blueprint-concept.
Tomorrows richly paneled households.
The precarious drama of the staircase.
Law of returning incipience.
Many brothers free to choose
Between encumbering masculinities.
Lilting cult-headed children.
Silent incorrigible children looking.
Three prefabricated sisters.
Their muscular remonstrations
Involuntarily tearing at ideality.
And they knew they were much more than a bunch.
A native of the Bronx, Photios Giovanis is a poet, drag performer, bartender and computer-geek currently living in Brooklyn.
