Drag out the struggling cats by their backlegs! Bring out the micron-long
jones, the caterpillars of sweetwords, the sweatwords that squeeze out of
the forehead of Parson Jones. Words like sweet water from secret
limestone caverns in the earth.

The jumping cats by the billage. The billabong is bone dry, the soda lake
just a huge flat white pan of borax in the desert. It's so boring when
you're on the borax mule train. Boring through the rock & sand for more
borax! We must make detergent for the lily-white mothers in their gingham
smocks!

The red riddlers ride the river down to the Riggory. Reddle in the ruddy
riverwash. Rusty river down from the Bavarian metalworks. The schoolhouse
girls, up the hill beyond the metalworks. Deep in the pumphouse: the
seven legendary encounters. Down beyond the grille, an arena of magic &
archetypes. Sex as an ancient religion.
