The Fantastic Lore: Hey, is Sketch your Crew?
They say when it rains, it
pours. Locked away in secret,
A secret that a man stores.
Two years has passed and
he still can't seem to wash his disgust clean. Quite A few jeers, tears and embarrassment hides
behind the mask worn by Eugene.
6:15am and in the city,
it creeps. Not outside, it's within
a dwelling, where the Man
sleeps. A rancid odor permeates an already foul air, as indiscriminate silhouettes roam about the Man's lair.
There, in a crumpled heap
sleeps Eugene, half covered
with a tattered rug, toothless
grin on face, giving himself
a hug.
Using his dry, cracked aglet,
Reggie, slow drags it along,
under the raggedly hairy
nostrils of Eugene. He's
attempting to find out if he's asleep or if there's any signs of
life from what he can gleam.
On the other side, LeRoi n' Sal make like hair stylists, parting
the three hairs on The Man's
head, slicking it down and
then giving it a little kiss.
Suddenly, and finally startled
awake, he jumps free, and
starts getting the shakes.
"Wha...!!?? Who's there?"
He cries out a nervous plea.
Once, they know he's a bit frightened, the three visitors,
fall silent, aware that somehow
in the dark, their victim can't see. Then, in rushes a fairly huge
figure, who turns on the light,
to spy three sneakers and Eugene, looking an awful sight. "Hey guys, didn't I tell you to let The Man sleep!?"
Reggie quickly replies,
"Well yeah, sorta but hey
dude, you know how 'sketch'
we are, so promises we're not
known to keep!" Right then
the other two 'Sketchies'
fall over, rolling around
laughing their soles off.
Eugene apparently now having
found his courage, eyeballs
Blackout, and warns, "Didn't
I tell you to keep those low
priced hacks in the shed
out back!?" Blackout,
brushes against the door,
and simply replies, "I'm sorry
boss, honest it won't happen
anymore." As the three sneakers
huddle closely by Blackout, nod
in agreement, but slyly nudge
at one another, spotlighting
their true selves...proof
positive, The Man and his accomplice have paired with
a crew, that's clearly, pretty sketchy.
Note: Yea, it's meant to very silly!
so if you're thinkin, this is weird?
You don't know Lore! Lol
