apologia pro sinister blog entries mea

Midnight at the Presidential Palace in Teheran.
President Mahmud Ahmadinejad sits behind his mahogany desk and savours the stillness.
A desk lamp casts arcane shadows on the floorlength red drapes covering the windows.
There is no other light in that chamber of stillness.
Midnight.
And he feels it.
His hour is coming round at last.
