TOTAL CHAOS FOREVERMONTH: Patti Smith?

--Patti Smith

Elegant Choice could not resist the challenge posed by Patti Smith in the latest issue of the New Yorker. His deer is a thing of evocative beauty, but the deer's hulking companion is more of an enigma. As Elegant Choice explained, it was originally intended to be a bear, but since he "could not remember what a bear body looked like," it was instead given amorphous form and a pig face, not to mention an elegant and taxonomically-transcendent wang. Things that the deer don't do include: barbecuing entire live birds, groping monstrous and mythy breasts, and wearing clothes.

Don't look now, but I think Gentle Ben's pork is upside-down.

Even so, the pic is VERY cool. And if that sort of imagination doesn't deserve a Cartoon Network/Adult Swim pilot, I don't know what does.

My God, you're right. I just assumed that Elegant Choice had chosen to pell-mell the wang on purpose, as he so often chooses to pell-mell his own.
