INDEPENDENCE DAY

 

 

(news)

 

10 works-margins news from Independence Day.

(At once  John Reed and his TEN DAYS THAT SHOOK THE WORLD have been recalled)

Place and time of the events are unknown.

Black and white report with color final. Flickering objects from TV news.

The newspaper has been blown up to monumental size.

(Propagandistic stands)

 

Dingy-gray fragments, snatches of events.

Cheap paper?

TV digest through the old TV screen.

(some things are better seen in such a way)

The attempt to peep through nowadays into unknow future.

Flowers on the flower-bed (tomb) of the hero-victim-invaider.

Tragedy,tears, cry-all is yet to come!

 

Now only episodes,those which are usually left behind the frame, newspaper, TV report.

Independence day-feast of violence.

 

And grenades started to fly.

Some guvnor in funny outfit has come out on the balcony (to smoke?), on TV again somebody is

saying something,some girl is on (who is she?) ,the group of people (crowd) is near the monument.

(monuments are changed as often as flags)

A flag is waving gaily (which one?)

And somebody is taking the aim...

Sc-a-a-ry!

And somebody has carried the newspaper (and here it is PRESIDENT IS DEAD).

It's happened so it's happened.

All the same(one way or another)we'll have reached the flowers.

Either near the monument,or on the flower-bed,or on the cemetery.

(black and white humor)

 

Flowers-news: like blood-drops(whose?)

With the absence of color in the most news it still present as red, sweet-bitter taste of fear in the

front of unknown.

 

Merry holiday in science fiction style!

 

Deja vu.

 

All possible concatenation of circumstances are not random.
