The Reno. Reno the Destroyer. The destroyer of marriages. Of cash & nest
eggs. It's a kind of grinning reptile that slithers into your pocket and
cracks your nest egg and sucks out the yolk. A sneaky snake that spirals
up your pants leg, and with huge greedy-desperate rolling eyes unhinges
its jaws and slowly sucks your nest egg down its cold-blooded gullet.

The slithermothers go far further with the ditherbrothers. They drip from
the ceilings at night, and probe with their tiny blind snouts and
flagella until they find an open pore. They seek the warm mucosal warmth
of inter-tissue space. Tissue interstices.There, they curl up and dream,
and their dreams become ideas and sudden intuitions.
