Behold my teenage son there. The putto. As might be represented by Lucien Freud rather than Donatello. With halo having become sullied and slipped down from above his crown so as to cincture his features in the form of a hood. The monk with his vow of silence. The black friar stewing in his own tormenting juices. Angelic features framing a demonic countenance. And yet my wife constantly counsels me not to make him break his vow. Thereby he flagellates and scourges me even without removing his hands sheathed in the pouch in his hoodie. Our father who art in Hell...

Bwahahahaha! You nailed it Marc! (I have two, I should know). :)
ReplyDeleteOh the joys of fatherhood!
ReplyDeleteIt does sound like his father is in the bottle, if not in the Hell.
ReplyDeleteI don't want teenage sons. Is that okay?
ReplyDeleteAw, teenage boys aren't always that bad! Still, I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I am glad I don't have kids.
ReplyDeleteHopefully it's just a phase he's going through. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy kids better never grow up...
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, I know whereof you speak.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, better Freud than Donatello!
