in the cancerous labyrinth of our techno-imperium, in the acrid and
rancid miasma of a millennia-long come-down, where imprisonment in the
rotten bowels of a slave camp is hawked as a brave new transcendence, we
find ourselves in a greasy spoon, down some overlooked byway at an
unknown hour, face to face with death in the form of a clown. It is The
Maggot, here to instruct us in the perverse art of cosmic reversion, by
means of a fry-up. Hidden in the face of the dark satanic everywhere
that is the consumer totality, the imperialism of ordered normality
collapsing into the viscid maw of a joyously devouring demon is
revelation of everyday life.
Have you ever wondered how you really do become death, destroyer of worlds?
Come along then.
