MY MISE EN SCENE
I took the bowler cap off the monkey and

It was all so very simple than. I rented a car for
the Steel Magnolia Lunar Derby - a 1964 Aston
Martin, in grey - and off we went a'riding through
those massive Pennsylvania hills. I didn't take the
insurance offered; because I was sure we
would take no spills. Just like that. OK?

At the Midway FreakFest Roller Coaster rides,

throats of the new-found brides from the 4H Club :
girls raising chickens marrying guys who'd been
choking them. Funny in a way, how all

ten best things and thrown into the Lake of Fire,
Greasy Lake, Lake Isle of Innisfree. Wilbur

the Lake Isle of Innisfree)...
