The Ballad of Desmond Kale (2005)
“There was also a lumpy red rash that his mother fussed over with powders. Then there were the yolk boils.
Sheep after washing were like sheep lying dead in snow, everywhere white and lumpy wet, and none seeming to breathe as they lay down defeated awaiting their time to get up and be sweated, and then to be shorn. Poke them and prod them and nothing happened. They sloshed, buckets of guts. Turn your back and up they jumped alive oh.
Each night Artie moved his blanket to the men’s fire and stret...ched himself out being entertained by the boasts and ballads of the men and warming his bones with a few chokes of rum which ran like lizards into his loins.
Lorenze watched from the other side of the fire. The green-eyed lunatic Moroney recited his words. A ballad could be put either for or against, but nobody would ever find Kale and beat him with just a ballad. You needed a sheep to beat Kale. If you wanted a sheep to beat Kale just ask Paul Lorenze.
He was up on the whole rampage. His anger was right up under his ribcage.MoreLess
