SNAPSHOT

Polarize...
Atomize...
Anaesthetize...

The language of violence...
The language of love...

All fucking snapshots...
Brief >> resilient >>
So, yesterday...

The Old Guard...
Lies buried deep beneath the rubble of Cold-War-ruin...
The New Guard...
War-bunker-room-addicts...
Xenophobes...
Godfathers of the democratic tongue...
Building a bigger, brighter future...
Honest...
There'll be a few casualties...
But what the hell...
Patriotism...
Republica's last stand...

Hunter S.Thompson...
God bless him...
Gonzo Geek...
Prophetic lunatic...
Calls it the "Kingdom of Fear..."
He's damn right about that...

"The 22 babies born in NYC while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th Century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over folks. The time has come for loyal Americans to Sacrifice... Sacrifice... Sacrifice... This is the new buzzword in Washington. But what it means is not entirely clear."
Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of Fear".

2004 populated by the living...
and by the dead
The trajectory....
One and the same...

Hush little baby, don't you cry...

I'll whisper secrets...
And blow your mind...

SNAPSHOT

Oceans of red swaying in a Communist wind...
Statuary worker, peasant and intellectual...
Was there ever any distinction...
Comrade: 2256900413?

Raspy breaths from the reactor...
The Eye in the Sky Observes...

Always watching...
Always Waiting...

N.Korea hiding behind her impenetrable walls...
Bleak...
Grey...
A haze of paranoia clings...
To the Cold-War-State...
Enemy of the West...
Resistance is futile...

Cold comfort to the 24 million+ masses..
God, dictatorship's an ugly bitch...
Lobotomy of the individual...
Of the self...
Of progression...

"Axis of evil..."
Snorts dear Mr President...
"We'll get to you later, sonny..."
Got enough on your plate right now...
God willing...

"Pyongyang had no other option but to possess a nuclear deterrent...
"Our deterrent is, in all intents and purposes the self-defense... The self-defensive means to cope with the ever increasing US-nuclear threats and further, prevent a nuclear war in northeast Asia..."

Vice Foreign Minister, Chloe Su Hon.

Kingdom of Fear...
