NEW YORK SUNSET: An Evening Conversation IMAGE: Some amethyst crystals with some futuristic skyscrapers. Ted: This art work reminds me of the Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind". Terri: Yeah – things are strangely impersonal, fuzzy, & disconnected. Kris: New York is naturally surreal. It represents the wonderful absurdity of America, and to some extent the world. Sam: To many it represents a bomb target. Perhaps the whole city should be under water? Tim: If global warming continues, it will be. ================================================================================= from _AmeriSong: Poetry, Art, & Dialogs about Amerika_ by T Newfields SUMMARY: An image of sunken metropolis and discussion of a possible future scenario.
