While I agree with nearly all of these postings, everyone seems to have missed an obvious one. High school reading. The poem The Hollow Men by T.S. Elliot. https://allpoetry.com/The-Hollow-Men "Stuffed men...filled with straw...wind in the grass...more distant and solemn than a fading star...There the eyes are...Eyes I dare not meet in dreams...The eyes are not here...There are no eyes here...In this valley of dying stars...sightless...We grope together and avoid speech... The whole scarecrow portion of the video references The Hollow Men. Check it out. The poem has all sorts of meaning too. There are websites about it. One last thing. On the Criss Angel website, look at the gallery. Is he using Bowie's video set, or did Bowie film on Criss Angels set? It's the Blackstar Attic. It even has a Blackstar in it: https://crissangel.com/gallery |
