Clowns

Clowns who take a paralyzed man, and learn they are made of words.

The stretcherch. 38

Clowns wrap around a paralyzed man and wheel him on a white stretcher dotted blue, red and yellow. One with goat eyes and slit pupils, sweating under white makeup, kisses and licks him with a perverse love: “It's been so long…” Others joke about the last kidnapping as if it were a game.

The feastch. 38

With small surgical blades they draw blue worms from under his skin and slurp them like noodles. One, jealous of another's longest worm, crushes his throat.

Just wordsch. 38

The perverted clown calls the man Ouroboros and is answered as Lucifer. When the man laughs, “I hate God!”, they all laugh with him. Lucifer asks who the others are, and one points to the edge of the papyrus they are all written into: “Just words is all, see?” See Lucifer and Ouroboros.
