in LA to fix broken tooth, speak to my dentist, originally from egypt.  he explains to me the new problems and resistance.
he is one of my biggest supporters.
he praises me, tells me that i am rare.

he indeed was a human rights refugee.  the things about which we speak burble up.
the destruction in the LA economy.
the women in egypt, unhappy with the new shariah.
USA nonintervention in sudan and intervention in libya.

a woman i talked to in LA predicts riots to come.
tourists look scared.
the latin jazz band makes me feel so nostalgic.
america seems a narcotized delusional world, after the war crimes torture ambience of wikileaks.

americans are good at spraying down their pain with perfume and fakeness.
the fakeness is so thick its hard to know if there is any pain anymore.

even pedestrian zones like hollywood feel like a war zone for the walking human.
cars, petrol, SUV's, drive-thrus.
repulsive.
strip malls.
ugly architecture.
smog.
write a broken heart letter of retreat.
i have not the energy for LA.

atmosphere: boarded up shops, pollution, the homeless everywhere, streets smell like urine
america!
the man whose hands were chopped off in gang ritual.  the homeless faces in LA i recognize from 2007.  still there.
and the missing.

the homelessness in san fran is very visible and american.
horrifying.
fear the BART.
post leaflets portland hollywood portland.

some kind of cheesy cloud conference going on.
the business culture feels very american, very religious and bourgie, a celebration of blue and white: social enterprise.

tent cities. hoovervilles.  elderly, sleeping on the street, waiting to die.
no social conscience.

san francisco, wednesday august 31,  2011
impressed the business class can maintain their composure side by side the homeless.

keep thinking of my friend dan diamond, who with his masters degree in LA still survived out of food boxes.
i worry he is dead.
i think of all the things he taught me.
about finance or critical theory.
maybe he is alive, sleeping on a street somewhere.
imagine the LA smog killed him, or the new meds.

dan pinci's song about his father's death moved me to tears.
