Poetry. DECLINING AMERICA is a series of long poems which depict "america" not as a nation but as a linguistic strategy. The long poems range from overtly political ("my american movie") to language-based ("software tracks"). Many of the poems were written while traveling America (the nation) and while reading Jean Baudrillard's America (the book). The poems here hold the view that the cultural imperialism of the United States has essentially rendered Canada "America" (the regime).
