mange and sweat within the stetson's halo
might have unsettled Kropotkin's nascent state,
riddled in possessives, the "ministerial scaffolding'
lurking in the O of Olsen, as if amitas is organic:
here the common fields refuse to yield
and vastness is called The Outback,
as if sovereignty is emerald and territory
is colour-coded: inside knowledge
a set of brand-names, and there's the rub,
and that's what keeps them coming back
