Before him on neatly lined paper rests a pen. He grasps the slender cylinder. E xpertl y he rolls it over a pattern of callouses that have grown from years of contact with its plastic skin. He unscrews the top with a surgeon's skill and unsurprisingly finds the inner tube. Cautiously, he removes the golden spring from its molden holder, and lays the fully dissected creature before him. l ts mangled body rolls independently in pieces around the table. Stacherine rescrews it- unscrews it- unscrews it until an illusive thought flows concre tel y in his mind. The pen checks over the thought with a consumers apprehension. Then with a gluttonous appetite, it lashes out and secures a hearty bite. l t digests the nourishing portion and excretes it in fluid upon the paper. Stacherine looks at the humbled thought-bit off chewed up, spit out, and wonders if the scribbled jarblings could ever seem like words again. A .Q M 1 CV 5: 3, i 2 fi ii J .14 1 T I .
