Love is a Battlefield, 2016. Digital photocollage. Kelly Heaton
Valentine's Day is coming, although I don't need a holiday to mix romance with late-Anthropocene apocalyptic visions. In keeping with my song theme, I wonder how lovers will frolic in the acid rain under an ozone-less sky? Sounds like a battlefield to me.

A storm's heading our way, and people are saying we could get three feet of snow! I hope we don't lose electricity. Here's a little electric boogie dance to keep the wires alive.
