Did I Ever tell you about the man who taught his asshole to talk?
by William S. Burroughs

To be an animal ... Little boy put on a pot

To be animals ...The man has just been hanged. The doctor steps forward with a stethoscope

To stay down ... Body is carried out with the rope around neck ... Naked corpses on the autopsy table ... corpse buried in quick lime.

To stay up ...Erect phallus

To stay down ... White man burns off a Negro's genitals with blow torch ... Theatre darkens into the blow torch on the left side of the screen

To stay present

To stay absent

To stay present ... A boy masturbates in front of sex pictures ... Cut to face of white man who is burning off black genitals with blow torch

To stay absent ... Sex phantasies of the boy ... The black slumps dead with genitals burned off and intestines popping out

To stay present ... Boy watches strip tease, intent, fascinated ...A man stands on trap about to be hanged

To stay present ...Sex phantasies of the boy ..."I ponounce this man dead."

To stay present ... Boy wistles at girl in street ... A man's body twists in the electric chair, his leg hairs crackling a blue fire

To stay absent ... Boy sees himself in bed with girl ... Man slumps dead in chair smoke curling from under the hood saliva dripping from his mouth...
