Slow Rot
“In this, it’s true: that which makes iron
makes roses makes saints makes rapists
makes the decay of a tooth and a nation.”
Charles Bukowski in “in this –”.
Slow Rot withers into the Grotesque, an artistic style that warps reality to expose its more sinister aspects. The grotesque is a confrontation with the frailty of selfhood rather than just a reflection of the monstrous.
