INTERNATIONAL ANTHEM, number 1, (small excerpt from) pages 13 and 14
...December 7th, 1977. 5:40pm.
I sit, silenced. Forms move as shadows in the darkness.
...I am not yet free, but I am not dead. I am started, but see no end.
These systems? What is their demand? What is their cost?
I do not want to choose action. Silenced, I can generally withstand the pain.
The shadow in the darkness is my own consciousness, slowly it takes form,
slowly exposes itself to the light, slowly demands my commitment. I can less
and less withstand the pain.
I WARN YOU. THE NATURE OF YOU OPPRESSION IS THE AESTHETIC OF MY ANARCHY.
