The Comandante and the Suicide Queen


El Che
The Lustful Comandante

Queen of the Damned
The Pliant Poetess

The tortured offspring of a doomed union
Their Tortured Offspring:
A Menace To Us All?
Way back in the 1960s, just about anything was likely to happen and it usually did. Picture it: the Argentine revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara de la Serna literally screwing the hell out of suicidal American poetess Sylvia Plath. This is something that actually happened, and Choo Choo Clown is in an exclusive position to prove it to history.

Both "Che" and Syvlia led doomed but apparently drug-free lives in the wild happy-go-lucky days of the Hippie Hippie 1960s. Sylvia spent most of her time around the sedate and respectable metropolises of Boston Mass and London England. Dissimilarly, Che, in the employ of Fidel Castro, the demagogical king of Cuba, who Che helped bring to power in January of 1959, traveled far and wide across the world though only twice to the United States. Therefore Choo CHoo Clown has dicsovered that he seduced and impregnated the reportedly depressed poetess Plath in London England.

As Plath herself wrote of her doomed fling with the Comandante, "Every woman adores a Fascist, / The boot in the face, the brute / Brute heart of a brute like you." Though Guevara was a Communist and not a Fasict at all, her meaning is clear. These lines suggest a bad end to their doomed tryst. Perhaps "Che" leapt out of their sinful bed one morning and flew the coop back to his wife in Havana Cuba. Plath was married as well to a poet of some standing and author of the successful cartoon picture The Iron Giant (Warner Bros.) However in the 1960s marriage was allegedly considered to be no impediment to "free love". This is to say little or nothing of Plaths poem "Song for a Revolutionary Love".

As if to cap it off in one of Che's associates in the Cuban revolutionary network was dubbed "Ariel," an oblique jibe at the heartache the Comandante felt over his lost "Sivvy" (as the poetess was referred to by her mother in Wellesley Massachusetts.) A wealthy suburb outside of Boston and home to well-thought of womens college. Plath took her own life in an oven in London in 1963. As she expired she is reported to breathe the words, "Che..." Guevara was hunted down and murdered by the CIA while attempting to launch an unsuccessful gorilla campaign in Bolivia in 1967. His last words being, "Syl-via!!!"

Assuming that the virile Guevara succeeded during those long hot days of unbridled lust prior to both their deaths in planting his Revolutionary seed within the ready and willing poetess with a dramatic streak, Computer experts in the employ of Choo Cho Clown has created a computer simulation of their twisted love child. He or she is pictured at left below his or her doomed but nevertheless influential parents to generations of young people around the world as symbols of rebellion.

If his or her parents are any indication, this creature is even now likely composing mordant verse and plotting his or her own grisly death, or else planning to subvert the capitalist system as we know it. If you see this man or woman, please reporrt the sighting to Choo Choo Clon immediately
