Another simple mail art postcard - just a couple of random snippets from some cheapskate magazine or other, glued, and juxtaposed, onto a very bright eye-catching card.
Phew!
Lucky that I refer to myself as a surrealist.
You see, if you call yourself one of those, you can get away with all sorts of nonsense!
'So, hang on. What are you doing with that pen'?
'Eh?... It's not a pen, it's a special tool, an instrument, a finely made implement. These are very expensive items.'
'Do you implement it, much'?
'Oh, all the time. It has been a boon to my life.'
'I see... What is it called'?
'It's called a Tofneau.'
'Tofneau?... Have you just made that word up'?
'I might have... But I use the device mainly to do glimpses.'
'Glimpses'?
'Yes.'
'A long glimpse, or just some short, perhaps surreptitious, glimpses?'
'Either, but they go, especially well, with the eyes.'
'Well, you would expect that, wouldn't you'?
'Of course.'
'Do you normally do just one eye, or do you always go for the pair, you know, for the balance'?
'It's up to the customer. Some people like both eyes done, but if you want, you can have just the one enhanced - but generally people who like to be more, what shall we say, furtive, in their glimpsing, have just the one - you see, it's how you move your head, and, what you want to be glancing at.'
'Ah, the furtive glimpsing sounds more my style. I suppose you can turn the glimpse on or off, willy-nilly, just depending on the angle of your head!'
'Exactly!... Would you like the normal black, or another colour'?
'What other colours do you have'?
'Well, actually there's only black, and a sort of mauve.'
'A sort of?... No, let's go with the black.'
'Good.'
'See, I'm going to the bank this afternoon, I want to give them - those bastards, a good set of sneering glimpses...'
