I'd like to be a cartoon character,
existing as flickers on a screen.
I could be annihilated one moment
and be back in the very next scene.
I'd suffer nothing more than a sooty face
after being blown up by dynamite,
or be intact and healthy as ever
after falling from a precipitous height.
If a giant anvil fell from the sky
and crushed me into the ground
my body would resemble an accordion,
and make funny music as I walked around.
Nothing could end me forever.
No matter what, I would be restored,
for such a thing would be predestined
in the next frame of the storyboard. - Jeff Barnes
