That's My Scorpion


All of us have dreams of becoming famous, of being written into the history books. Famous writers, famous scientists, famous actors. Most of us fall short of those ambitions, cuz, you know, fame is a lil' bit like a Ponzi scheme. Some lucky few of us end up writing advertising jingles, formulating new and improved shampoos, modeling for catalogs. If I was an insect sculptor, I would be over the moon to have an enormous scorpion commissioned. Every time I went to the park I'd think, "That's my god damned scorpion".
