The apocalypse: Blazing purple and bright red tongues of flame of gigantic proportions tear through the night-blue sky. The glowing eruptions spew hot lava like an army of dragons. Dark, molten streams roll over everything, burying life. But new life emerges from the ashes, delicate greenery on the wounded, steep flanks of Mount St. Helens paving the way to a promising new future. Playing with fire, dancing on the volcano, the looming catastrophe—upswing and decline, luxury and misery—are all waste paper. Art and culture blossom, refreshed and refreshing, like new life from the extinct ashes of volcanoes. The dictators of the world have perished in the magma of time. But new ones can emerge from the primordial sludge like volcanoes that destroy everything at the end of time, Eve of Destruction. hb
