The female general reappears in a suit of armor shaped like a dress. She is incorporated within war imagery. The god of pollution appears with his girlfriend . . . she is death. There are oil fields in the military graveyard that suck the life out of the youth of the nation. Come to winter's window and break the sky . . . you can put an end to war. |

We passed through strange rooms . . . never meeting . . . never speaking. We live in fear to die and wonder while corpses float in carnival. The shadow creature holds the sign in her shadow. |

The Christ figure has cut his wrist where there is light emitting instead of blood. He is perceived as a derelict, a bowery bum; which appeals to the common man . . . he is a Christ without pomposity. He is a self-sacrificing God that takes on the sins of the world. The angels are angry at God. One is smashing the cathedral, while the other is contemplating god's evil heart. The burning earth symbol gives rise to a new God emerging from the smoke. God passes away and then humans invent God. |
