ANOTHER DEVICE
Anther device has it that we can
escape time and space by stepping
into the ether produced by the smoke
of nonentity - all those lonely people
living their lost lives alone. It's a big
machine made of ebony wood with a
white metallic door. Very striking, yes.
-
This is but a trade-show expo, held
yearly in one of those usual, useless
corporate-center places with an expo
center always dumped in the middle :
car shows and furs, motor-bikes and
snow equipment, tools and comic book
conventions. Everything, so predictable.
-
I wanted to leave a good half-hour ago,
but John here remains convinced he can
find something of value. So I class around
faceless, thinking of nothing and grabbing
what passes for beer at the refreshments
place they're running. Four ninety-five, for
a plastic cup of piss. They do need another
device - and something better than this.
