Synopsis

declining america, by Rob Budde, is a series of long poems which depict "america" not as a nation but as a linguistic strategy that most of the planet engages with. 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) while reading Jean Baudrillard's America (the book) but also with the view that the cultural imperialism of the United States has rendered Canada øAmerica' (the regime).
