The Gates of Paradise

Dogs at the gates, alligators 
in the conservatory — all part
of a playground for inhuman
resources. Within which, sin-
ging either in a descant or with 
the assistance of a tight ankle 
bracelet, impressarios line up 
to offer services outwith any 

human rights laws. The key 
shifts; now suitable only for a-
moebae & a few axolotls. A 
changed rhythm, also. We try 
to sing along, a long song, in 
an impossible counterpoint.
