In America, nichts neues. Death stalks street corners like a lurking cassowary. Blood the National Color. Random acts of madness practiced from ambush. General lack of civility. Shout each other down. The Other is out there being otherwise. Fear. Arm yourselves! Disarm yourselves! Dead anyway. Impenetrable, crystalline, indestructible ignorance. Nothing to be done but hold on by sitting tight until the next blasts of rage rend the night. ~mce
