Taut strolled into a neighborhood library that was noisy for a library. Then he saw Puddles the
Clown doing a dance in the lounge where people came to read newspapers for free. The people became
silent when they saw two Puddles and then the real Puddles stood still, surprised by seeing
another Puddles. Taut walked slowly and faced Puddles as the crowd's jaws dropped.
|
  |
"You can kill me," Puddles said, "but you can't kill all the Puddles."
|
  |
"I was right, then," Taut said, "there are many Puddles."
|
  |
"Yes, so genocide cannot result in a Puddles cleansing."
|
  |
Taut stepped back and Puddles took out his two bags of urine. The crowd applauded and shouted
hooray as Puddles dropped the bags as he cried, "Kaboom!"
|
  |
Then, Taut grabbed Puddles before he could jaunt out of the library. Then, Taut turned to the crowd
and shouted, "It's him, her, them, it's, Puddles the Clown. Wawhoo and kaboom!"
|
  |
Puddles smiled and left. Then the crowd lunged at Taut, piled atop him and pelted him to death.
