Rooster - Object writing exercise Dec 31

admin December 30th, 2007

Little red rooster blares out of the radio, like the sound is coming out in a big megaphone triangle, someone inside the radio is shouting out the music. Little Richard I think. It’s got a nasal twangy edge to it, one of those early 60’s recordings I think.

Cock -a-doodle-do

Foghorn leghorn, strutting about, breast puffed up like a new pillow, flap of skin on top of his head flapping about like a flag in the wind, “I say that’ll be alright son’ that’ll be alright” as another weight descends from the sky landing on the unsuspecting hound, the Wile-E-Coyote character type dog. The colours in cartoons are kept basic and flat, easy to render, easy to reproduce.

Sitting in this lounge room entertaining myself, temperature outside is appalling, don’t want to know, inside here about 10 degrees cooler, fan is flashing about from side to side, a circus clown head side to side but pushing out air, not balls, recirculating the still hot life-less air, giving the impression of cooling.

Skin is creeping with humidity, like a second skin , just resting on the first. Like something from a science-fiction movie. The monster is the humidity. To the refrigerator, hand into freezer section, crispy ice and captured whisps of icy air hang caught in the spotlight of the fridge door. So nice letting my fingers slip along the jagged edges reaching for the pre-fabricated choc-coated melt in your mouth ice cream bar. That’s the thing, that’s the way to deal with this stupid day, this stupid heat. Dinner tonight, what could it be?

Red Rooster- or Big Rooster as they call it in some states. Big multicoloured displays of food hang over you like a bridge foundation, you can see all the rivets and bolts of the food holding it up. Plain old chicken and chips, not quite as good as it used to be, but tonight it’ll be fine, the white meat separates into a hundred slivers when cooked just right. The chips ooze oil, but are crunchy on the outside, just right. This chicken is going to go down just right tonight.
