Creation Bomb
Creation Bomb
The reason I like the idea of bombing a huge skyscraper is because of its immediate effect on the world. A world in which I usually make no impact. It's loud, shiny, exciting... The only downside is the pain and suffering it would cause others.
I don't want to do it to hurt people. I want to do it because it's a huge idea; affecting the world in which I live on such a grand scale.
Destroying what exists is far easier than building something new...
And I've always been a lazy man...
So...
What if I had a Creation Bomb? Constructive rather than Destructive...
Set it off in the middle of Trafalgar Square...
And instead of Death or Destruction, a beautiful building or tree or mountain or anything springs up into existence. Something new, never seen before by human eyes. Not just another high rise block, but something from dreams, inspiration, taken from a better place.
Release wonderment upon the world.
Make it better.
