piano played Tschaikovsky's 1812 Overture.
Trumpets sounded again as the music faded. The draperies shot
open,
propelled by two stiff arms. A man stepped inside and posed for a
moment, his
right arm raised so that his black cloak half-hid his face. His hair
was black
and shiny as patent leather and was parted down the middle. His
forehead and
nose were white as the belly of a shark. His eyebrows were thick and

sharp. Then
he bent down and began to chew savagely on the penis but within a
short time
raised his head. The blood and spermatic fluid was running out of his
mouth and
making the front of his white shirt crimson. He opened his mouth and
spit out
the head of the penis onto Colbert's belly and laughed, spraying
