How Long Can You Leave Sushi Out

Azure and steel (excerpts) The mysterious star

Farmers leave grasslands become
workers. The plant grows
houses in mining towns and courée, quartered. The plant
develops, operates long enough for
settled habits, tradition, a
culture. Traditional working-class culture,
unions, public education and camaraderie.

The industrial revolution of the late 19th
the first world war, economic crisis,
the popular front and the 2nd World War.
The reconstruction and modernization, "30
glorious", the oil crisis, the crisis of
steel and one day the plant closure
for various "good reasons". Forever.

Inventory for closing: competition,
modernization, resource depletion,
greed of shareholders, the obsolescence of
tools, the militancy of workers, the scholarship
and moods, the labor market, the flight of capital
... The factory closed and the money goes
off. Money is the trunk, evaporates.

The human being is heavier than silver. It
reacts slower than money. A human being
is solid, real or virtual cash.
Money moves like lightning. Click of a mouse
: here's the other side of the earth.
He has been here, he fainted there.
here it is exchanged, it enhances it. He travels

without a passport. The money goes elsewhere but
living person remains in place, remains on the
tile. The living person does not leave his
home, house, his memories, his history.
Otherwise the living person is torn as
gutted house, a box with buttons reversed
in the rubble, crushed a music box.
