recipe for a socially desirable animal where and when? That is the question A touch of the theatre of the absurd
sleep eat talk cry pants dry pen wet head clean button your fly in the hall off the grass off the hedge smiling dry keep left keep right keep chewing mouth closed keep off wear shoes watch a screen always agree play ball keep a thigh no entry no exit no turning no burning don't touch don't budge don't smudge eat fudge little Margaret Fry diagnoal fragonal hexapentagonal cheat your children eat your father kill your mother shoot your brother die
