Exploring The Artistic Landscape, With Neutron Bombs
by Tom GossIs there a
more disturbing human euphemism than
enhanced radiation?
The ionizing burst
at the moment of
detonation,
the spectacle
of high energy
electrons let viciously loose
from the fusion reaction
provides a lesson in
the amorality of technology
and the evolutionary genius
of destruction.
The earth is suicidal,
destroying itself
one human child 98.8% chimpanzee
at a time. 03/12/2007 Posted on 03/12/2007
