The Dusty Hall of Cliched Surrealist Comedy Objects and Creatures (No Spam)
Posted: Mon Aug 26, 2002 2:58 pm
Looking around this ancient hall it is clear that a great deal of cleaning up has been done...piled high as the ceilings are objects and animals....some faintly amusing, some faintly musical, some sugar-based, but all painfully familiar.
Here is a monkey...clutching at golf clubs, lollipops, push-me-pull-you lawn mowers, a forlorn look in his eye, evidence of many years of painful abuse.
Here is a pot of jam, almost empty. Unmarked.
Hanging above your head, a giant carrot, drooping and withered.
Walking further into the hall, you hear a faint whirring...a machine noise. Peeling back a cobweb you step into a clearing among the junk...in it are six bizarrely oversized microwaves, each containing a casket which you take to be the coffin - an inscription is bellow:
Contents - Terry, John, Eric, Michael, Terry, Graham.
Cooking Instructions - Bake until hard.
Slightly disturbed and inexplicably confused, you head out of the opening to another great chasm, surrounded by yoghurts, zebras, policemen and puffins. Only a low sound is audible...a scrabbling sound. Rounding a corner, you increase your pace, now desperate for an exit...several hundred feet in front of you a lone man is visible, frantically pulling seemingly random objects out of the junk and putting them in a big bag.
He is a bloody transvestite.
