The Vision Thing

Slave! Come here! I need you!
Yes, my lord Ba'al. How may I serve you?
The palace renovations! What do have to say about them?
Why, they're beautiful, lord. Just look at that ceiling! It's spectacular!
Spectacularly dull! I ordered images of naked nymphs! Luscious maidens! You know. . .
Virginal indecency, O tasteful one?
Exactly! But this! This is totally lacking in. . . what's the word?
Vulgarity, lord?
Yes! I guess. Deposit that artisan before me!
Immediately, O merciful one.
And bring the usual array of whips! This aggression will not stand!
