Down on the movie set in the afternoon there are no lights on on the outside of the bank...on what allan bloom called the agora in the closing of the american mind the pedestrians move in mindless awareness doing thier mundane chores...in the qua a lot of people move with a stick up thier ass believing that thier shit doens't stink or they move with a hang dog look thier faces bearing the struggle to pay the steep taxes they pay in order to create their test tube children who will grow up with a sense of entitlement and enrich themselves at the expense of their fellow Americans...I guess that's harsh and judgemental but I'm not the only one who sees it...Howard Zinn, the esteemed historian from Boston University, has said American education is a failure because it does not teach it's students to make moral chocies...hence, eight years of mindless destruction in Iraq and
Afghanistan with no end in sight...I remvber sitting over futrher down on South Greeley Avenue by Starbucks when it had just been built back in 97 and we were commenting on how it looked just like 1966...you could see the winds of war blwing just like int hat year before the escalation of the Vietnam war...and yes I have been in this landscape longer than most so I am entitled to my own judgements and at night walk alone int he town watching the lights upon the bank..
