Reading of text for film

Reading of text for film

Project Overview

I am looking for somebody to read out the text below. 


 I would like it to get faster paced towards the end of the writing. I've tried to indicate some interruptions with dash marks. The text is a stream of conciousness, so please be loose and creative with your response. 


It will be used as a part of an art film, so I will need permission for the recording to be exhibited.


I really need this asap so please have a go! Huge thanks in advance!   





Breath is tide

Push, pull words through fatlips

In, out, in

Until it’s caught on a fish hook lodged in your cheek

Words, caught on a fish hook lodged in cheek


It starts in the throat


Stutter, stutter

stutter on bleached china

You took it home from the restaurant because it had a chip in it


Knife-slice, fork-in

metal tongue- tongue- tongue

Tongue click

Sweet, wet and juicy


- wait

-Hold up

They’re caught, don’t pull!

You’re making it worse

-One moment

Just let me think

The stitching is caught

Um

I know how to do it, but I can’t help you

You need one of those little tools with the red dot on the end

I used to have loads but I don’t know where they have all gone now


Tongue flick

spit click


tongue silent

words stuck

going round like one of those lottery ball machines

someone forgot to turn it off


Honey sweet tea part peanut butter throat

Good intentions

But the lime scale skin gets caught on that fish hook


Silk tinned peach slices fall from trash mouth


Tongue

Rusted fish hook shoved in cheek

Gum stained

bleeding copper taste

Words

Teeth limp, tongue blistered


Abscess

Tongue stay back

Words still stuck


Cough it up, they say

Rip the stitches, they say

Anything to drain the mouth

Swollen words stacked in gum trench


Bloat
