Whiteworld/Oedipus - Patricia Barber[00:00:01]

I arrive in the jungle[00:00:08]

In my new khaki clothes[00:00:09]

Make a splash in a pontoon plane[00:00:11]

Bought and paid for by those[00:00:13]

Who demand a tally[00:00:15]

Of the dark horse, the bad seed[00:00:16]

Poking and prodding progenitors[00:00:18]

Of respiratory disease are we[00:00:20]

Whiteworld[00:00:25]

I have institutions in the West[00:00:33]

To make institutions in the East[00:00:35]

I historically revise[00:00:37]

With Deconstructionist ease[00:00:38]

To name is to own[00:00:41]

To market is to steal[00:00:42]

I’m a gangster in a Hummer[00:00:43]

& this culture will yield to me[00:00:46]

Whiteworld[00:00:51]

My policy is straight[00:00:59]

My publisher primed[00:01:00]

The natives will not[00:01:03]

Resist this time[00:01:04]

Cause I’ve got celebrity[00:01:06]

I translate, I teach[00:01:08]

I give my heart, my soul,[00:01:10]

My brains, my body, and my[00:01:11]

Batteries[00:01:13]

Whiteworld[00:01:16]

I came on my journey[00:02:39]

To a juncture of three roads[00:02:41]

Two men in a chariot[00:02:44]

Made it impossible to go[00:02:46]

I struck the driver[00:02:48]

For pushing me aside[00:02:49]

The old man struck me back[00:02:51]

So that I[00:02:53]

Had to kill them all[00:02:56]

Whiteworld[00:03:03]

I can change water into wine[00:04:43]

Solve the riddle for the Sphinx[00:04:45]

I like the perfectly primitive[00:04:47]

Cause they desperately need[00:04:49]

My sovereignty[00:04:51]

Over Third World Thebes[00:04:52]

I’m a First World Oedipus[00:04:55]

And Mother Earth is[00:04:57]

Down on her knees[00:04:58]

Whiteworld[00:05:02]
