[UPDATE] Sarah's Blog July 13 - Hopeless

Hopeless



Quote:
I've lived to bury my desires,
And see my dreams corrode with rust;
Now all that's left are fruitless fires
That burn my empty heart to dust.
-Pushkin

So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
-Frost

Lost, lost, all is lost. The nature of grief is curious. These are my labor pains, where I give birth to my sorrow, and even after the wicked child is born shall my pains be strong. My darling baby; my progeny of heartbreak.

This is the umbilical cord, where I pour all of what was once me into this child of woe. It shall suck me dry unto the last drop and cry for more of the foul formula upon which it subsists. Here is the heartbeat which echoes a tattoo throughout all sound, a strong and rapid heartbeat sounding like fists striking walls. This is the fevered brow which blazes with the fire within, consuming all in its path, rendering me to nothing but crackled skin and steaming bones. Ten fingers and ten toes and ten million ways to tear me to bits.

There is no life left in me. I bequeath it all to this child which is all that is left of me, and her name is Sorrow, and she rides a pale horse. I despair. All is lost.

Dale,
I'm worried your repeated dreaming about the fire may be a preminition.
With the defeat of the bill to tear down the library, it is possible
that Don Marzano could resort to alternative methods to reach his
ultimate goal, the library's physical destruction. I'm not sure if he
wants to destroy whatever the walls of the old building might be
hiding, or release something that may be inside the walls, or just
acheive access to something in the ground beneath the building. But
he must have had some reason to come up with that digitization plan
just so he could bulldoze a historical building that was only recently
remodeled.
Please warn Sarah. I don't know if the local law enforcement will
take you seriously but maybe you, Sam & Sarah can come up with some
reason to get them to patrol a little more often around the area. You
should seriously consider moving some of the more valuable items out
of the building. And do not let anyone be in there alone at night!!!!
Stay safe!
Heather

Hmmm... Maybe Wes is trying to tell us something?

I'm reminded of an Aeon Flux episode I saw on MTV (back when Aeon Flux was a shot on the show Liquid Television)

Found this little discussion of the Chronophasia episode...

Quote:

It involves a "happiness virus" ...

*edit*

some more tidbits:
Courtesy of The Midweek News (emphasis is mine)
Quote:
"Aeon Flux: Mission Infinite" (1997), revisits the feminine super spy with three stories that push the envelope even further. ...

... the first story of the trilogy, deals with the notion of self actualization and memory. After all, "we are only what we remember ourselves to be."
