Zombie World Trade Center
I completed this piece in late September, 2006. At the time, I had been thinking about the use of fear as a tool, and how the Bush administration had developed a habit of invoking 9/11 whenever they needed support. The more I contemplated this tactic, the more it felt like a B-movie horror flick, where the monster suddenly reappears every time the audience thinks it's safe.
I guess that's what it boils down to: 2749 dead souls, used like a screen-writer's plot device.
