Dave is a Rhinoceros. Keanu is a Tapir. They live in a zoo. They Do Stuff.
Dave is a idealistic soulful rhino who takes himself a bit too seriously. He yearns for company and intellectual conversation but instead he gets Keanu - an excruciatingly cheerful and shallow tapir with an extinction-wish - moving into the next-door enclosure. A surreal and brief reminder of how dull the zoos of my childhood must have been for their inmates, with my imagination running riot over how they might have coped with the boredom. |
