12 MONKEYS

Author: KablePublished: Apr 04, 2005 at 7:14 am 5 comments

damn...
It's 12-Monkeys all over again...
Life imitating art...
All that kinda fucking jazz...

Reactionary papacy...
Sprouted wings and flew into the divine hereafter...
Leaving Corporation Catholika in turmoil...
Press Office 24/7 fucking cam...
Corpse-cam...
Crazy shit...

Angola meanwhile...
Is Haemorrhagic Fever Capitol...
Seems nasty little Missy Ebola-virus...
Well, her offshoot cousin...
Marburg...
Has felled 145 already...

Brutal death...
Organs liquefy...
Everyone's running scared...
Democratic Republic of Congo...
Insists on border inspections...
While Angola quarantines...

Airborne...
Humanityborne...
Eco-weapon of Mass Destruction...
Why...
Even old dear Mr President...
Couldn't blast this one into the stratosphere...
Independence Day...
Extinction Day...
What's the difference?

It's all just word-bytes...
24-seconds-ago...
Is SO...
Yesterday's-news...
Cardinals pontificate...
As to the new Pin-up-boy-of-the-Papacy...
While bodies collapse around the Congo...
Bleed...
Back into their original form...
All so biblical...
And ultimately...
Fucking predictable...

    Marburg and Ebola erupt sporadically, regardless of who is top man at the Vatican; despite WMD issues and political spins. There's no cause and effect relationship here, Kable.

    Pretty poetry, maybe.

    Try Preston's The Hot Zone (0385495226) for a superb view of the melt-down (technically: bleed-out) symptoms of these viruses.

    Thanks for yr comment Dr Pat...

    Any cause-and-effect-dynamic is purely coincidental...

    I take yr point totally...
    And am in agreement..

    Pretty poetry should always have poetic licence don't u think?

    Ebola, Marburg, et al = God's population control.

    Virus as Cosmic Flyswatter.

    Go, Gaia! Save yourself, quick!


    (PS to China: keep raising fowl: Mother needs some 'house-cleaning' and a bit of 'breathing space'.
