The Fuzz. With pictures by Coco Picard.

At The Paris Review Online.

 

Teaser quote: 

Long time ago there was . . . . . .

a fuzz.

We say “Why?”

Nobody knuzz.

No, it’s a lie!

The fuzz does.

“Fuzz, why?”

Fuzz says: Hi.

I’m the fuzz.

There is no because.

Fuzz just is.

Is and was.

On the floor, 

and in the drawer . . . 

in your hair, 

. . . and on the air . . . 

I’m the FUZZ.

There is no because.
