[hometext] => Just to note: Hobsbawm is a very old Marxist historian and 1991 marked the fall of the USSR, which was not truly communist
[bodytext] => They finally got there now falling relentlessly from a sky that mirrors the ground got through my layer of thin blonde outreaches wetting a scalp that has seen as much extent of the color that fierce sky mirrors For on the ground are leaves of a season passing trampled to death under thousands of daily footfalls the oranges and reds beaten out of them much like the dignity of falsehood stripped from a forgotten army who even I remember having pride in being red Yet these victims of organic decay will have some incomprehensible form of revenge their new form of grey mush stealing some of the bright commercial themes from the shoes that oppress and protect more intelligent beasts Come tuesday this cycle will still remain though lacking innocent bystanders like me who would rather spend time with, indirectly, an ailing, aging Hobsbawm who ails from a confusing interpretation of nineteen hundred and ninety-one reflecting an even darker, dimmer shade of that sky forcing me to reflect with intrigue, for what if tuesday never comes?
