One cannot but ponder the famous opening lines of Eliot's The Wasteland during this truly thought provoking OfficialAprilPolice video. Indeed, April is the cruellest month, and what better way to reflect that cruelty than through the repressive institution of the policeman? The aesthetics of the ancient temple add an additional layer of alienation to what is an already oppressive social phenomenon. Like the spectacles of discipline and control from the ancient era, the policeman represents the same kind of patriarchal and dictatorial control that the priests of old wielded in the name of social stability. Eliot's The Wasteland likewise delves into a nostalgia for the ancient period as an escape from the overwhelming pressures, absurdity, and meaninglessness of modernity. There is a sense of waiting, even of paralysis, until an apocalyptic event rips through the modern era that is already careening into an abyss of violence and point of no return. The policeman too waits, lurking in an isolated temple through every month until the endpoint of April finally arrives. A peace which we cannot currently understand must wait until such an endpoint finally comes, Shantih shantih shantih. It is not until the promised date comes upon us that he is able to reassume is rightful place in his office, and string up the symbols of the modernity he strives against, Trepril specifically, in the cages that they belong inside. Reflecting the sentiment of Eliot's poem, the policeman is a symbol for the past: a beast who surges out from the depths of history to rescue us from the predicament of modernity that we have constructed for ourselves. Perhaps a return to the auspices of cruel dictatorial control is the only thing that will allow us to escape from the certain doom of neoliberalism. Welcome back, policeman.
