About this piece
Any fool can break things. Any dictator can invade a
neighbouring country and reduce it to rubble. We so easily succumb to the promises of a prince, president or generalissimo, and they so easily start to believe they have conquered life itself.
Cromwell, Idi Amin, Putin, Hitler, Pol Pot, or even some sergeant on a horse in a cathedral, who doesn’t like images. All of them are as weak, deluded and absent as a sleepwalker, and they all think they’ve reached life’s pinnacle.
Then they rust.
