    There was blood on the floor, but I still had a hard time convincing people I had been hit by a rock and was dead on arrival. My bloodstream was unclean in the worst way, and the circle of animals were weeping toxic tears where the orchids grew. This is the story of my 20 jazz funk greats: Kryptic Pop Thrills from 3/20/20 (Genesis Breyer P-Orridge tribute show).

    The sweet bird of truth and the karma chameleon were hanging out at the beach with a bunch of typical girls and typical boysT. The chameleon, thinking he was the genius of love, said, "kiss them for me, and I'll do the making of the flippy floppy." The bird replied, "shut up and enjoy the silence." Kryptic Pop Thrills from 11/17/17: a collaborative show with Kameron and Thom!
