Gordon "six-eyes" lived in his parents basement until his six eyes became highly fashionable and his anger at the outside world had subsided to a level of extreme indifference.
By the time it was safe for him to emerge from the cellar and experience the outside world, his brothers and sisters had all grown up and married. He now had many nieces and nephews, who loved their "Uncle Six Eyes". They all marveled at his ability to move all six of his eyes in different directions at once. They wished they had six eyes, . . . instead of the "boring" single eye they each had on their shiny, bald heads, . . .just like their parents.
Music
When he first appeared on the sideshow circuit, Rex was billed as "Rusty the Wonderdog"
He was the world's one and only, fire-eating dog.
He could also perform amazing feats of strength; he could bend the points of a pitchfork with his jaws!
He was last seen working at Coney Island's Dreamland as the "Living Gargoyle" in the HellGate exhibition. The park burned down in 1911.

A day before the opening of the 1939 World's Fair, Gill pulled himself out of the great Flushing Bay and headed toward Main Street. After eating a hotdog and a strawberry ice cream soda, he went back into the Bay.
He reappeared many decades later in the upper deck of Shea stadium during the 1986 World Series between the New York Mets and the Boston Red Sox. He was enjoying a hotdog and a beer.
Television
Reginald was a celebrated Victorian biologist and chemist.
He was quite a celebrity in his day, . . . well known for his scientific discoveries and many sexual conquests, . . .despite his unusual body odor.
One day, while hurrying to his next lecture at Cambridge, he spontaneously combusted. All that was left in the pile of ashes was his whiskers and his shoes.

After much deliberation, . . .the smacking krampus, raises his hand as if to ask a question, . . . and then smacks down his victims until they relent, . . .His oversized right hand is as wide as the average frying pan!

Sometime in the 1850's, after an unusually long, hard rain,
a strange figure pulled himself out of the ground and began terrorizing a small mining town in Northern California.
It wasn't so much that he actually caused any physical harm to anyone, . . . it was his unusual appearance combined with his high pitched cackling and almost constant mumbling,
that drove people mad. The townspeople nick-named him "Rooty" because of the long root-like tendrils that protruded from the top of his misshapen head and the strong scent of ginseng that came from his body. When startled, which seemed to be quite often, his "sounds" grew so loud, it rattled window panes and interrupted many a conversation.
I lived in LA for most of my life, so I can't help but laugh at your status of having recently gotten back from LA juxtaposed with "cynical" for a mood.
Thank you for including me in your circle of friends and letting a poetess/band into your world! I love love love your art work! I will buy some prints eventually too.
