Kockroach by Tyler Knox



This is a very funny bankshot, with left english
off of Kafka's Metamorphosis. Instead of a
man waking up and finding out that he's turned
into a roach, a roach checks in to a roach motel
and finds, to his disgust, that he's become a man.

“In an age when mass pleasures like television are becoming more feeble and homogeneous, the very act of discrimination becomes a form of protest. At a time when mass marketing of food produces a product so disgusting that it has to be wrapped in distracting gimmicks to be sold, the mere fact of paying attention to what you eat and drink and telling the truth about taste is a revolutionary act.”
