LIPS ARE FLAPPIN BUT NUTHINS HAPPNIN
OR
AN EXTRAPOLATION OF THE VALUE/TIMBRE/LANGUAGE NEXUS IN SOCIAL STRUCTURES

PART ONE
NOISE & MONEY ARE ONLY WORDS

in the beginning was the word 
& the word was a noise
that symbolized an abstract idea  
like the idea of value
which can be heard in the noise of money
which is the loudest word in the dictionary
piledriver is another loud word
when you hear it you know that money is on the way
the approach of money being very loud & rhythmic
symbolizing destruction
but defined as construction
in the dictionary
which is full of words 
& costs money

PART TWO
THE DEFINITION IS AUTHORITY

the definitions of words are permanent
although the pronunciation changes
as well as the context & intention
the words rebel against their meaning
the definitions attempt to assert their permanance
we can only understand the temporary
because we have the disease of experience
& we have no money
to buy a dictionary

PART THREE
THE DISEASE OF EXPERIENCE

where i'm sitting (on the street) smells like shit
but its quiet
I have no money so there is no noise 
coming from my pockets
a homeless black man passes me 
& he has no money
so his only value is in what noise he can make 
with his mouth
so he is talking constantly
but he's not using words
from the dictionary

PART FOUR
THIS IS HOW THE ECONOMY EQUALS THE DICTIONARY

some people - when they talk - their words come with a money symbol  
thats cause what theyre saying is very expensive 
since words are money
then not everybody can have them
or use them to get more
in fact
some people when they use certain words
will get into a lot of trouble
cause they are saying expensive things
but their words are missing the money symbol
now they will have to pay the price
if you don't have a money symbol then
your conversations must be held in secret
meaning they must not be broadcast
but they may be monitored
some people - because of who they are - have an automatic money symbol 
because they grew up with a lot of words
people who are not born into words have to struggle harder to be understood
sometimes they will make their own words
or scavenge for them on the street
& these words are considered dangerous
by the people who own the dictionaries
because they don't  understand them
but they are popular
because they are free

(babies make noises unaware that they are creating a new & ancient language 
because they havent yet learned about money)

PART FIVE
SILENCE

the people who write dictionaries
live in silence
that is why they are so obsessed with words
they live in silence 
because they have so much money
that the noise has made them deaf
silence is the sound of power
as it pushes itself down onto money
pounding the abstract idea of value into people
like a piledriver

& all this noise is based on nothing
& controlled by silence.
