Show The realtors of this hypocrisy couldn't sell Boxville property couldn't give it away. Short of turning Treeland into a battleground the residents there couldn't be pried out of their cozy little spaces. Boxville became a ghost town and in time nature reclaimed its space. The boxes lost their prison like look as root systems engulfed everything. Ivy climbed the walls shattering the glass. Without the ever present nature police Boxville became a twisted mass of steel and glass like a mathematicians nightmare of thwarted equations which is what it was in the first place. Human nature is basically hypocritical but given the choice and forced to reveal its true cravings it will choose infinite variety. As box people moved into Ivy there were some trouble makers who brought their abstract mentality with them. Wielding shears and mowers they began to trim away the variety of nature. They were given a choice to either shape up or move back to Boxville. Some of the more intractable did move back and to this day there remains two cultures abstraction and infinite variety coexisting. In time though box people in their wayward ways perished from their ignorance of truth and beauty. The end. The land developer is steeped in naturalistic hypocrisy. He's going to "develop" the land beyond nature. What he means is undevelope nature into feeble minded abstraction. The literature put out by the developer has photos enticing the customer into the coverup. A piece of virgin landscape is ripe for development -here is the most vicious semantic attack on nature in this century. Along with it comes the semantic distortions in the language. -36- |
