Playing Popeye
The man who played Popeye sponged off the dirt from another hard days work at the studio. He was really sick of spinach, but that was his specialty and what the spectators demanded. And he always sparkled when the crowd was happy. Who cares if they didn’t know that the spinach was rich with spices and tasted more like spaghetti than a vegetable. His spectacle pleased them and they bought enough souvenirs to keep him from spiraling out of business. His business was good and soon to be solvent.
He splashed more water on to the sponge and kept washing as much for the soothing effect as to be clean. His bathroom was large and spacious with the full spectrum of colors lining the walls. Those were the spatial specifications he had given the designers when it was built and that was how he liked it. In his bathroom he was sovereign just as he was king when he played Popeye.
But what would he do next? He wouldn’t be able to keep being Popeye for long! He was getting bored. Maybe he could play a caveman next and spear apples from over people’s heads! That would please the crowd! But then he thought that not many people would have the spine to let a stranger throw a pointed stick at their head. Nah, he’d have to think of something else. He would stay Popeye for a little longer. And with that thought he turned of the water and stepped out of the shower into his colorful bathroom. Now what should I eat other than spinach? He thought.
扮演卜派
在演播室又苦干了一天，這個(gè)扮演卜派的人用海綿擦洗掉身上的臟東西。他吃菠菜真的吃膩了，但那是他的特色菜，也正是觀眾們要他吃的菜。只要觀眾高興，他常常會(huì)才智煥發(fā)。誰在乎他們是不是知道菠菜里放了許多調(diào)味品，吃起來不像蔬菜倒更像意大利面條。他的演出讓他們高興，他們買了足夠的紀(jì)念品，這使他不至于很快無生意可做。他的生意很好，很快他就無債一身輕了。
他往海綿上潑了更多的水并一直洗個(gè)不停，像是為了干凈，也像是為了它的鎮(zhèn)定效果。他的衛(wèi)生間又大又寬敞，墻上有各種系列的彩色線條。建房的時(shí)候他給了設(shè)計(jì)師這些與空間有關(guān)的明確說明，他喜歡的就是這個(gè)樣子。在他的浴室里他是君主，就像扮演卜派的時(shí)候他是國(guó)王一樣。
但是接下來他要做什么呢？他不能長(zhǎng)期繼續(xù)扮演卜派！他已經(jīng)覺得有些煩了。下次他也許可以扮一個(gè)穴居野人，用梭鏢刺人們頭上頂著的蘋果！這會(huì)讓大家高興的！不過轉(zhuǎn)念一想，沒有那么多人有勇氣讓一個(gè)陌生人拿尖東西往他們頭上扔。不，他得另想高招。他還是再扮演一段時(shí)間的卜派吧！想到這里他把水關(guān)掉，從浴室來到了他那五彩繽紛的衛(wèi)生間。不吃菠菜，我現(xiàn)在該吃什么呢？他想。
