Text for a durational performance with french horn and water

Durational performance with french horn and water 30 minutes

I believe in a horizontal devotion to the world. 

I run my hand along the walls of buildings. I'm hungry hungry hungry and their textures keep me fed. After running my hand along walls, after being told off for leaving my hand behind, I pick it back up and I lick every finger clean from tip to knuckle with careful precision

 mm mmm mmmm

and then I push those fingers down deeper in my mouth until I can feel the softness of my throat and my stomach pulls itself inwards and I pull my fingers out and marvel at the line of phlegm connecting them back to the inside of my mouth. Dear reader, can you see it? I hope you feel me looking up at you, you're part of the world I'm devoted to. I keep licking my fingers, I’ll take all of it in my mouth and pull all of it back out again for you, dear reader, to marvel at it too.
