A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

“My penis and a snail”

By “my” I mean the caption the photo came with, not that it’s me literally (not that I don’t also have tattooed undies). These are my friend Werner’s tattooed and pierced genitals and pubic region, and of course his lil’ snail buddy.

    I really wish you’d also blurred the snail, the fuckers terrify me!

    (By terrify I mean ridiculously excessive phobia to the point that photos make me scream and run away, I was actually on the canadian discovery channel once embarassing myself by freaking out over a plastic slug during a workshop on disgust, so eveyone else who finds the photo a little gross can at least feel good that that they didn’t squeak at the screen and feel like spewing like me !)

    (I’d like to add that I like spiders and will pick up big furry ones, it’s not that I am a wuss, it is because snails and slugs and leeches are WRONG.)

    I can’t stand spiders. I feel the same way about them as you do about snails leeches and slugs. So, I’ll field the gooey snails and slugs for you if you will handle the spiders for me. Deal? 🙂
