Image of " A cynical voice guided me, which was really pure candor: “Its as if we rise up in each glass, each party, by the art of the magic in which "old things have the power and control of what’s going to happen" like when you unthoughfully prepare the table with plates that have initials, but we were not afraid of the error, nor of the horror, of that fuck that was like a wedding, with a loop of Christmas music and it was perfect because that was not a living present but the peak of a wave that traveled from a long time ago, maybe a couple of centuries until reaching the climax, ‘more ice please, sniff, muah’ from the 13th floor, like a cat that does not know how to get back down without thinking about the turn of that roller coaster and its menacing foam.” by Enfant gâté

Image of "I was the next irresponsible, high gear runner and party-man, designed by my ancestors. As Beatrice said: my virtue as a sacrifice. What offering is more precious, valuable to a king than the sacrifice of his own daughter? Everything unraveled as was planned for centuries. I acknowledged the mandate: The one who got on those skates or travelled on the flying tapestry went on to a written destination, rehearsing like a Hoffman automaton. Although it was all a drill I never trained for, it came to me like I was already in full concert." by Enfant gâté

Image of "Coming out of a tsunami, as if conquering a masterpiece of time, hitting quicksand with clown shoes, our blossoming hallucination surpassed a frantic lesbian skiing before a murderous sky. Our party ministry ended in a video conference, screens divided into shared orgasms like tears dressed in gauze breaking the windows of our frivolity. That was our perfect generational punishment, a strawberry in a dessert, a spoiled oyster in Paris.” by Enfant gâté
