NUCLEAR WAR: WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU In brutal nightmares I bully young
men, I have it all on tape: Suddenly, I understand football
Above these bodies frozen I want to spin like a spiral galaxy
I want a love that will take my
soul |
NUCLEAR WAR: WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU Patti |
"Nuclear War: What's In It For You" is the title of a book I found at a sidewalk booksale in New York City just after reading Don DeLillo's novel End Zone, about football and nuclear war in Texas. I'm attracted to systems and structures of all kinds, but especially when they are breaking down. Think of the heat and movement of stars as a nuclear blast that cleans the slate for change, a beautiful destruction. Cold war love. Chaos. |
