  11/2002 Contemporary Automatic Writing.

"The blissfully wretched mountain to be released by these ticklish, innocuous voodoo feathers shall always remain dark and foreboding, and yet will always contain a superior strain of mutagenic coconut milk. The evil coconuts that grow atop this evilly displaced temperate mountain, with shaky trails marked with colorfully painted skulls and crossbones, are not endemic to this evil region, but were once imported by a shipwrecked porcupine that thankfully was rescued and then conducted back to its dubious place of origin - i.e. these evil mountains of which I speak."
