about

"The landscape around there was completely desolate except for the tobacco plants. Standard Oil had strip-mined it in the thirties, and just when some vegetation was beginning to grow back, they discovered that a certain kind of low-grade shale could be converted to oil, so they came back and drilled holes - very deep holes - hundreds of feet down into the bedrock. But they never got around to filling them afterwards. They just sent down a shipment of manhole covers, but nobody ever bothered to put them over the holes. One day, Mrs. Taylor told me that she used to have another kid, but that he had apparently fallen down in one of these holes. Her description was very abstract. 'Nobody try to rescue him, it just felt down the hole'. She said: 'Well one day I saw him out there and I was watching and then I didn’t see him out there no more.'"
- Laurie Anderson, “Song For Two Jims”
