Goatwater - Page 33 - Transcript - The Sixth Season Here

Octaroon
The sixth season here is always Iniquity. The climate: warm, sometimes hot, always damp. Animals: mad cock, hot cat, rabid goat. Conditions: restlessness, inconsolable grief, perversion and fever. Education: Wisdom, Dreams, and Scripture. History: an uncoiling Spiral.

Officer
Ruthie, you sweet, red-yellow morass, you golden, whole wheat angel, where did you get that Rhymer’s Rum? It’s excellent! Is it from Ribald Street? If only Goodman were here to experience this with me. You’re not partial to ashy ankles, I take it?

Ruthie
What can be better than kissing the leg of the law? Or a lawful gentleman undoing the clasp to my bra? Though my Dear Pappy informed me long ago that I was beautiful intelligent and without any flaw (where’ve you run off to Papaw?) Tell me, Officer, just what can be better than kissing the ashy leg of the law?

Goodman
Leopold, I’ve hatched! I may not be hung or whole yet but I’ve hatched. I’ve hatched! Wait there, now! Is that Ruthie, my Brother? IS THAT RUTHIE!? Can’t you hear me? Can’t you see me? I’m the little cracked, gray fellow rising out of the altar behind you and yelling like mad.
