north by northen they live in villages of 8 to 10 people, dont pay rent and make art out of multi colored buttons and old bent tire rims. they have warm smiles and icicle beards that hang down in a furrowed eccentric mess. they are eskimos that write with red ball point pens and speak french fluently. except when they slip on the ice they may curse and cry. thier tears freeze into crystal cathedrals with paintings of redemption hanging along its walls. they redeem us all.
