Western Sun

If you believe the western sun is falling down on everyone

If you break it free and the morning’s come

If you would now your time has come

If you believe the western sun is falling down on everyone

And you feel it burn, don’t try to run

And you feel it burn, your time has come

I feel it!

-Prodigy

2005 is almost gone. Spilled past like scotch on the trouser leg.

Does anyone else feel like it passed at the speed of memory. In no time at all I'll be on my deathbed thinking, wow, that was fast.

I wonder if empires feel the same way. What can even an empire do in the face of the joke that is time.

Laugh 'tll it hurts than laugh 'cause it hurts.

I wonder, could the ongoing meme of Apocalypse simply be death. The comet, environmental collapse, the rapture, all externalizations of our internal mythic dreamscape. After all "As Above So Below."

If we internalized death, the same way we have internalized justice or evolution, would it change our attitude to apocalypse? Would accepting ends keeps us from taking everything with us, kicking and screaming?

Bush said god told him to invade Iraq. I wish upon him a visit from Raven.
