Modern Hieroglyphics

'THE WRITING ON THE WALL' god hath numbered thy kingdom and brought it to an end... porta-potties scattered around high rises placed like sacred pillars. a stonehenge edifice of heroin diaries and delicate scratched cuneiform figures scrollings of huge *****es and booby robots. the eloquent poetry of low brow purists along the walls they read like the neolithic monuments of old so telling us all we need to know... the urinal dialogs written for future posterity, are defacing angels inscripted with lipstick and pocket knifes.
