The world is a BBQ, and we are but its death sausages.
We're all burning. Whomever the market cannot bear: the farmers, the craftspeople, the non-mechanical unemployed sentient apes, the students hungry for useless knowledge advertised as social advantage, the old, the poor, the useless armies of overstock, stalking in the stockyards, the way-stations, packed into cattle cars, or just burn them where they stand, why bother shipping them, with all that paperwork?
In a red hot Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen considers the world on fire - our sausages, our ground floor dwellings, our ESL teachers, our glass, our water, our men, our fish, our trash, our knowledge, our prisoners, our Indian subcontinent - and with his dying, crispy breath, gives some pretty good advice about steaming your sausages first.
