In sold out stadiums, top recording booths, sounds of ripping steel, snapped elevator cables, shattering feedback, eardrum surgery, masses devoted until death, a music landscape possessed by this singular, multi-platinum colossus of scar and bone; an infamous architect, who travels the world with her young son, overseeing constructions of her work, ignoring reports detailing the increasing death toll in her buildings; your misplaced talking toy turtle, cute immovable smile, a lost death-squad insurgent; shy teenage girl, strict parental control, model student, raised to be a killer; climate change has been solved; global warming boils the earth; desert wastelands surrounding scorched ghost towns; Manhattan mega-condos turned into luxury orgy sanctuaries, above crowded human tunnels of infested waste, amid apocalyptic floods, drowning what's left of the city; my last shift, in the world's best restaurant, my curious eyes, my lacerated arm, my exposed cluster of wires, my new insides.
These are the inhabitants and shadows, the glittering and decaying worlds of Container. 15 stories.
