The yard
The louche naked man with the COCK mask meandered about the yard, meander might be an unkind description but it was certainly a long was from the expected strut. But perhaps cocks don't really stut their stuff, perhaps they are more background creatures leaving the running of the yard to the hens.
The louche naked man with the COCK mask examined the features of the yard, old sculptures on plinths interspersed with newer works with faded signs including prices, faded signs that had not been read for a long time, none with red dots.
The louche naked man with the COCK mask stops at a sculpture of glass beads embedded in blown glass trumpets, stopping to admire the beauty and cleverness of the design, and the interesting juxtaposition to the nature surrounding it when the tannoy announces: THE COCK AND THE JEWEL IS NOW COMMENCING.
The louche naked man with the COCK mask turns to the yard and waits.
