Apocalypse of Jude

Fragment 52 /Christmastide /Vespers /Thurs, 24 Dec 1998

The steeple’s bells begin to toll the violet hour, telling Jude to hurry up and that it is time. Behind his back, the late evening light is casting a pall of fading purple and scarlet sunlight onto the face of the seven peaks, while above him, the purple-pink mackerel sky is beginning to turn grey, as over the ocean the sun sinks lower unto its death. The bells continue their tolling.

/hurry up please its time/ /hurry up please its time/

He eventually lets his fishing stick fall into the river below, lights a cigarette and then turns to shuffle forward towards his confession.
