 the thing that keeps coming to mind, for me, about the walls
 being built is that it is like Christo's artwork, running fence,
 gone very bad. and made permanent. never associating it
 with 'walls' i always imagined it referenced e-poles in their
 geometric planes, crossing and cutting into hillsides, land.
 but then again, it is also the efficiency of a system, its rapid
 construction and scale that may also relate. it's strange to
 compare Christo's Running Fence w/ Sharon's Standing Wall.
