This action-packed interlude is an excerpt from "e;Trash Talk."e;  The script was cut to this size for a live reading.  A monster makes bodies out of trash, and rampages a community, motivated by xenophobia and reactionary politics.  But what is this creature?  What is its true nature?  That's the question that teen mystic Peaches Kane uncovers, as she here connects with her angels, then supports some local people as they face 'Garbage Mouth.'Garbage Mouth befriends Bob Jim Bodine, an unsettled accomplice trying to survive by his wits.There's more Peaches Kane and other startling original characters, from Integr8d Soul.  Look for us online!

You might say he exists as a fog of ego and hate.  With its power-was it ever human?- it can strike from almost any common place. And he's headed to America's polling places on Election Day.Peaches Kane, a determined and spiritually-gifted teen, faces a metahuman fiend who composes bodies for itself out of garbage.  Her otherworldly and higher-self perceptions aid her as she, an otherwise ordinaty human being, joins daring individuals for the community's defense. With a spewing mouth of freshly-assimilated garbage and inhuman strength and abilities, Garbage Mouth's rampage goes deep into the countryside.  Loyal to the intent of his leader's words, he proves his invincibility and power to evoke terror, while making a weird friend along the way.

A gang of Living Toys follow the new avenger, The Death Valley Knight, who plans to break into Nemo Detention Center, and escape with the children.

Bonewitz found her dream: to be a toy for real children.  FROST Agents, however, took Heera and Caesar, away.  Now, it's personal.  Boney regroups with the Lelle Gang, who plan the most outrageous caper of the living toy animal lives: to free children from a center.- on the Night of the Death Valley Knight!  We meet Andy, whose superhero pretend play wraps him up in the magical night; Marteen, a thoughtful boy keeping his mind on freedom and good vibes; Jean, who prays to an angel that never leaves him; the officers involved, including Andy's dad; and finally, along with cast of colorful critters, we meet Tom Blackwood, aiding the Lelle Gang's caper with his strange power.Purpose: to use depictions of freedom and confinement to help our youth understand the world into which we've come, to foster empathy and compassion, and provide hope to those who care, but feel disempowered. I kept to the plot and its many details, with characterization as the key to opening the narrattive's Magical Realism. The emotional reality to the characters keeps center stage.
