“‘What are you reading?' Mige asked him.

‘Kiss me at least! We always were good friends— Kiss me for old times' sake…'

‘Dammit, Ville, don't start with that shit again…'

‘What are you talking about? I'm just reading you a poem…'

‘Did Crowley custom write these poems for you?'

‘Well, no, but now that I think of it… he could… yeah, he definitely could…'

‘Judging by the beginning of the poem, I suggest you lift your legs a bit higher and put your head a bit lower,' Mige said. ‘Have you tried reading something about animals?'

‘I have,' Ville said. ‘I found a beautiful article on Galapagos Tortoises, but I never finished it, couldn't make it past the word "breeding".'

‘I see, we've got a serious case here,' Mige said gravely. ‘Alright, keep going, at least I'll know what to prepare myself for.'

‘Kiss me just once! I know this ends— as every sweet thing ends! But— say you are not angry! Ere you pounce, Forgive me!'

‘I'll think about it,' Mige said. ‘Next time I'll give it a really good spin in my head.'

‘You could make me glad to die, I think, if you would only kill me kindly. Just one swift razor-stroke— cut low!'

‘Swift razor-stroke? Cut low? Come on, Ville, I'm sure you came up with this X-rated doggerel by yourself, and now you're trying to abuse my tour-assaulted brain with it, using the name of the old faggot Aleister Crowley as a cover-up,' Mige said.

‘No,' Ville snapped. ‘The old faggot came up with it by himself. So, are you listening, or are you making jokes? If it's all a joke to you, then I'm getting off this fucking bus on the next stop.'

‘I'm listening,' Mige said gloomily, dipping his Oreo in milk. ‘Don't go. Who am I going to mock at in the bleak early morning hours on tour? They are like animals,' Mige said, alluding to their bandmates. ‘They can't even defend themselves. And Lily… You know he's a mute, it would be like hurting Bamby. Have some mercy for those poor creatures.'

‘…and I Would pass the portal happily and blindly. Yes! I would like to think the fountain sprang…'

Oreo with milk spurted out of Mige's nose.

‘For fuck's sake! How can you say such things without a warning!'

‘I should read to you guys more often,' Ville said. ‘Your ignorance is quite outrageous.'

‘No, please, don't,' Mige asked him. ‘I don't want you to spoil Lily for me.'

‘Straight from my throat and slaked your aching thirst, Shot to your hot red heart one red hot pang, Then left you cool and smiling as at first. I give you freely my heart's agony. But oh! oh! speak to me! do speak to me!'
