«Here is the list of rare beasts / of mechanical souls of animal machines / of cries sounds gestures and movements / of legs gears skin wheels teeth». In this strange zoo you can find the “drillrat” and the “turboworm”, the “tortoiselectric” and the “saurianfridge”. So «please, take a seat, come and see / the caravan is coming don’t keep us waiting».
