Eight inch statue in a plexiglass case
Set in a recess near the elevators of what could be a bank or oil and gas building
A pig painted to look like a cow
Flesh painfully distended from years of apparent excess
Corpulent and smirking
Teeth like a condemned cemetery
A physical manifestation of all our worst urges
No plaque
Unnecessary if there had been
Who bought this?
Why?
Is there a catalogue of corporate art
Where I can send away for my own pestilent effigy?
