a shallow roadside grave for the king of lies
Recent development in summerland religio-kookery: trunk shrines, generally built atop subwoofers and built of springs so that when the <60hz bassline thumps small figures of The Hidden Christ and Jennifer, Patron of Popular Girls bob up and down as suits the character. Most of them have elaborate murals painted across the inside, like a diorama of the critical moment of their favorite figures from the Stephenson Bible or its even more questionable apocrypha, fake-gilded dollar store change baskets weighed down to prevent spilling. I saw a slew of the weird hipster faithful in the parking lot of Eat tonight, handing out handwritten pamphlets with elaborate meth illuminations while discussing amp packages and ignoring their sullen looking girlfriends.
