an adaptation from, A Void also known as, La Disparition

Today, by radio, and also on giant billboards, a rabbi, an admiral notorious for his links to masonry, a trio of cardinals, a trio, too, of insignificant politicians (bought and paid for by a rich and corrupt Anglo-Canadian banking corporation), inform us all of how our country now risks dying of starvation.

still no? i'll go on...

a rumor, that's my initial thought as i switch off my radio, a rumor or possibly a hoax. propaganda, i murmur - as though just by saying so, i might allay my doubts - typical politician's propaganda. but public opinion gradually absorbs it as fact. Individuals start strutting around with stout clubs. (sticks?)

"Food. Glorious food" is a common cry (occasionally sung to Bart's music), with ordinary hard-working folk harassing officials, both local and national, and cursing capitalists and captains of industry. Cops shrink from going out on night shift. In Boston, a mob storms a municipal building. In Plymouth ruffians rob a hangar full of foodstuffs, pillaging tons of tuna fish, milk and cocoa...also a vast quantity of corn - all of it, alas, totally unfit for human consumption.

anybody?

it's most common...
