I especially like these sentences, on monsters and category violation:
What I say may be in a language incomprehensible, but there is a time for that, and it is right now, because this is a monster's creed. It is for the cobbled-together, the sewn-up, the grafted-on. It is for the golden, the under-the-earth, the foreign, the travels-by-night; the filthy ship-sinking cave-dwelling bone-cracking gorgeousness that says hell no, I am not tidy.

Anyhow, I'm glad you appreciated it.
Golly: It's nice to be "splendiferous"! Thanks.
It truly is a beautiful post, isn't it? Glad you liked it.
