Maroon is unmoored, untethered, unhinged and completely undone by the weight of isolation, marooned as she is on an unnamed island somewhere in the South Pacific. Alone, she communes with phantoms that include the likes of Oscar Wilde, Salome, Kierkegaard and of...
Mostly you hear him coming long before the bright and flowing flourish which is his body floats across the speedway. Being that he is a dandy from Kensington, he much prefers the moniker Budgie, to the more pedestrian Keet. An avid smoker of Players and Dunhill’s,...
It’s true. Boorish Beige is quite ubiquitous with not much to say and one hell of a tan. He holds a monopoly on wall space in all the commercial buildings downtown and in many of the drab and dreary houses in the suburbs. It doesn’t seem to matter which country you...
