virtue of perseverance

this grand fucking theater with its magnificent stage and screen and full orchestra is burning down with actors and actresses alike still inside, carrying on as if it's just another busy night. it'll keep on going and going until there's no discerning even embers of bone and wooden stair rails, and maybe even after that. make an attraction of that, too, why don't you? i'm sure it'll draw someone in. they might even like it better this way.
