I’m building my own country. It looks like

my 7-year-old self, rocking a Looney Tunes

Raiders tee and throwing-up the Westside.

My country doesn’t speak Spanish but

it knows when you’re talking shit.

My country fits onto this very page.

My national anthem keeps getting remixed.

We’re working on a website.

This is American-manufactured masculinity

at its finest. And yet, I am responsible

for the raised trumpets, the snapped-into

Slim Jims. I am responsible for the mutation

of the word triumph, for the Igloo cooler

heavy with beer bottles and an ocean of ice.
