Piggies: a rambling, folksy-type vignette
So as they descended the formidable hill that overlooked the slaughterhouse, I mounted the hilltop and tossed after them a one-gallon gasoline can. The rusty metal container clattered happily down into their midst trailing a heavily volatile mixture of diesel fuel and rubbing alcohol in the opulent mat of drying leaves (this was November, you see, just about killing time for the Christmas hams and chops), and of course the pigs knew no better than to grunt in mild irritation and canter around the death-heavy vessel. Ah, the droll rhythym of metal mingled with the crunching of the leaves. After one final drag on one of the Black & Milds I'd stolen from Daddy's coat pocket, I flicked it out and down the hill, transfixed with the potential of the coming conflagration.
I like 'em toasty, God-damn you.
