Device of skipping commas in lists of adjectives

  *    red green and black python

Or verbs
    Slipping dipping gliding

Or nouns:
 The Bamboula the Chacta the Bambouille the Counjaille the Juba the Congo and the VooDoo

Bacteriologists epidemiologists and chemists

Or before a dependent clause
...Jes Grew will evaporate as quickly as it appeared again broken-hearted and double-crossed

Giving a headlong feeling. Lots of white space makes it read faster too (I can’t be the only one who has to blink to get through a dense paragraph, can I?)

The Wallflower Order - P-Funk and Sir Nose D’Voidoffunk! “I will never dance!”

The Govi of New Orleans???

“Jes Grew entered the Govi of New Orleans.”

The second receptacle of the soul: the govi. When the gros bon ange is released in desounen it goes into the waters of Ginen.


“The door’s Judas eye” - peephole
