The Striped Serpent Boy of Mellory Felled By This Rock


The Striped Serpent Boy of Mellory Felled By This Rock
innards on a rock
c.1645

Shortly after hallucinating The Striped Serpent Boy of Mellory slithering about his feet in a manner that Fluvio Nortnoodle interpreted as a "thoughtful sort of malignance", according to his diary he picked up the nearest rock and with a furious judiciousness smashed it down on top of him in a perfunctory life-ending sentence.

Fluvio would later admit that the resultant impression on the rock was one of his better works.
