an almost normative nonchalance to his absurdism--as if it's just fine because he's doing it. there he was, making good on what was not--rather than what was there. wala's quick brush of a gestured once-over, where gravity sank. left pinky claw in his mouth, with the false modesty of a centerfold. the frills of nausea knotted by abject terror & stage fright paralysis, was the confection of his presence. buddy boy Beelzebub standing in the living room like: 'what do you think?' a red-light district glow about him, Tartarean yarn's hypertrichosis, curly Tim Burtonesque horns. unhealthy *****-colored eyes, with see-no-evil reptilian slits & fangs that ate their punchline. he just stood there--coring out a cave of grandiosity, then leapt to the refrigerator. turned it on its head by tapping his claws on the freezer door, a little hunger strike. grabbed theΒ magnet of a Monarch Butterfly, forced a few flits & dropped it on the floor as with the lot of them. tip-hooved back into the living room & said: 'the lamp's bulb in your study needs changing--it's been driving me bat-**** crazy, I need you to see clearly so I can manipulate your knowledge.' 'Pretty soon you'll have two pulses & two heartbeats.'
