In the week Jean Baudrillard and Bad News Brown died, something overlapped itself into sharper relief like a venn sandwich: new century apocalypse (again) - versioned to infinity. Thread was cutting leeks in the kitchen when she got a warm flash back to the way the low sun reflected off the curved windows of city peaks and down past victorian shopfronts into shadow. The image left her head through the left nostril and floated to the floor, tracing a melancholy residue on the chopping board. The radio, whose broken ariel had been replaced with a tea spoon, was playing end-times music. It distracted her as she washed the brocolli and she dropped half of it into the sink. The cat scratched at the window and Thread pulled the plug. The cloudy water ran out with a muted (h)sssssh.
Somewhere else, the other great cover up: Neo-con erotica.
