I know I speak for every organism that has ever existed on the planet when I say that heads need to be cracked in, fast. Cracking people’s fucking heads in was my first love, and it shall be my last.
What else is there, besides cracking people’s goddamn heads in? Not much: the march of days, seasons, dreams, love and lies. Sex, anxiety, getting by. Food, albums, murmurs and moods. Memories and plans, sidewalks and fruitstands.
And that’s all fine, but like it says on my bumper sticker—and T-shirt and customized baseball cap and kitchen table (carved with a key) and bedsheet (scrawled with a Magnum marker): “I’d rather be cracking your bastard-ass head in.”
Take it personally. I’m talking about everyone, including you. I’m very democratic. That’s one of the things I like about me, besides that “thing” I have about cracking people’s heads in.
This one guy whose head I wanted to crack in said to me, “Don’t you really want to bash people’s heads in? How can you crack someone’s head in?” Shit, man, that’s exactly the kind of thing I’m talking about! Bash, crack, smash, whatever! Those are just words, and words are of no interest to me. What is of interest to me is cracking in the fucking, bitch-testicle, fucking head of every damn living thing on this planet that has a goddamn head! That’s what I mean! That is very interesting to me!
Everyone I see practically says to me, “Please crack my head in for my own sake.” They don’t say it in those words, no. They say it in other ways, like in the way they dress, but I hear them. And I heed their cries. I’d be a bastard if I didn’t!
Story of my life:
Mom: Oh, Johan, you look so cute in your suspenders!
Mom’s head: Crack!
Dad: Johan, life isn’t always going to be easy.
Dad’s head: Crack!
Me: Maybe you shouldn’t go around cracking people’s heads in all the time.
My head: Crack!
Cracking heads in is the only image I can, or will ever, comprehend. It is the single action which resonates sensibly within the rhythm of this world. Hopes are dashed! Heads are cracked! Of course you don’t understand! Which is why your head needs to be cracked in! You do understand? Are you among the kindred? Then your head needs to be cracked in even harder, friend.
