FUNNY SHIT
The secret cameraman is watching as
the blond enters the picture
but his camera cannot detect any change in her face
that moment when the oven door opens
not after Osbies banana crotch stunt
nor after pirate fondles his other scripto-magic decoder revealing crotch pistol
but a little later
not too long after pirate handles his heavy crotchet pistol
yes, then, right then when we zoom in on
Osbie’s amanita smoke supply
fresh and warm from the oven whose bliss zero teeth yellow in her memories
memories blacker than the shit where the big bananas grow
memories black as the face and curses of the Swarzcommando
but the camera, neither then , nor later can catch the change in the shadows
when
Katje catches shared memories of Van Der Groov the killer and
sweet savior of the dodoes armed and comforted with a similar crotchet,
which is the same one really
but with mere cameras Katje cannot be caught
whose shadows remain impenetrable
now reassigned to white visitation re ass signed to Slothrop
Slothrop whose own port holes are also re ass signed
Porthos
the man with the map to the future
the map to the man with the iron mask
the once and future porcine
king of futures fine and toilet style
whose own teeth bite down on Quoad’s candy
alkaloid desolation
adenoid
paranoid
meloid
annoyed
Jeez it must be pure nitric acid
nitro glycerine medicine
railroad extermination
tongue a holocaust
Did somebody make him up
make all this shit up
what was God smoking that day
That master chemist on the rooftop
Do the rockets from the crotchets fall on his house?
is this shit supposed to be funny?
