Week 73 Rings the Edge and Looks Inward
Which one of these things is not like the others?
What separates a quality online-quasi-magazine-published-with-a-blog-tool like Rock Heals from a shoddy rag like the New York Times? Quality foreign correspondents. People who are willing to put themselves in harm's way to get the real story.
Past issues have brought you stories that channeled ancient religious cults in the Dominican Republic; roll-stopped the siliconed hills of L.A.; mined cybernetic consciousness in Japan; tripped something fantastic but not-so-much light in Italy; and now we do it again...
From our Asia bureau, Katherine Gorman reports back from South Korea where she has scaled heights of pop culinary enlightenment.
But even before that, from our holy-fucking-shit desk, CAConrad slogs the real hazard pay sending in his dispatch from PHILADELPHIA. Whaddup!
And of course, the week wouldn't be complete if we didn't visit the undead shores with a little Zombie Haiku. This week's comes from Mark Wallace... and as the title implies, there are more from him to come.
Sometimes we catch ourselves asking, Why?
These shoes ain't gonna tie themselves.
Week 73 Contents
The Night River Phoenix Died, a poem from CAConrad;
Perfect Food (Korea), a video from Katherine Gorman; and
