The Coming of the Psycopomps
The current mood of dilapoid at www.imood.com
"'The poets talk about love,' Machine said, running the straight-razor back and forth along the strop in a steady, hypnotic rhythm, 'and that's okay. There is love. The politicians talk about duty, and that's okay, too. There is duty. Eric Hoffer talks about post-modernism, Hugh Hefner talks about sex, Hunter Thompson talks about drugs, and Jimmy Swaggart talks about God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth. Those things all exist and they are okay. Do you know what I mean, Jack?'

'Yeah, I guess so,' Jack Rangley said. He really didn't know, didn't have the slightest idea, but when Machine was in this sort of mood, only a lunatic would argue with him.

Machine turned the straight-razor's edge down and suddenly slashed the stop in two. A long section fell to the pool-hall floor like a servered tongue. 'But what I talk about is doom,' he said. 'Because, in the end, doom is all that counts.'
