[Lyric Note]
Scene II

A traveling sideshow carnival

The dazzling lights and sounds of a carnival. Pollock arrives, wide-eyed

[Pollock]
The hollow at night, a blood swollen moon
An organ grinder and his chimp
Churn out of tune
Carnival lights, a barker's decree:
"Pickled punks, oddities, freaks
All in one ring!"

I've heard there exists
A set of Siamese twins
Sisters sharing everything—wow!

[Lyric Note]
A bevy of Harlots enter, dancing

[Pollock]
An old cabaret, the dance of the bee
Like a swan I float up on stage
Looking for honey
A back alleyway, cloaked in red light
Coquettes in concupiscent dress
Bat their eyes
[Lyric Note]
A spunky Harlot catches Pollock's eye; he grabs her as the other Harlots hover around, concealing them from view

After a moment, he breaks free to find The Sisters Cecil, twin sisters conjoined at the head, sitting stoically in a sideshow booth

[Pollock]
What have we here in my midst?
So, it's true, you do exist
Thoughts long lost come crashing in...

[Pollock & Young Cassius]
A birthday boy in the month of June
Blew out his cake, his wish came true
Splattered blood all over the floor

[Young Cassius]
Gemini, what have you done?
What horrid wolves we've become
Oh, oh, oh
[screams]
Wow, wow, wow!

[The Sisters Cecil]
We are the alone
We have no one, only ourself
Never ever leave me
Without the Sun, there is no Moon
[Cecil I]
Without a me

[Cecil II]
There is no you

[The Sisters Cecil]
Oh, oh, oh

[Pollock, reflective]
Wow wow wow
