Dowd Morhart

Spanish writer, 1901-1997. He arrives by the miracle of bilocation -- but dressed for the beach. He recieves sun-tan lotion, an urn sealed in wax, and a melon-baller. He is a sea urchin.

Despite the magnitude of his literary evacuation, Morhart is largely remembered for a brief flurry of excitment surrounding rumors of his premature reincarnation. A press release anonymously issued in 1996 claimed that he had recognized himself in his next life as the woman who delivered his milk. Morhart's subsequent dismemberment outside a Mormon revivalist tent in rural Ohio is unconfirmed but drew undeniable comparison with the murder of Ryan O'Donnely; at the same time it hearkened back to John P. Merriweather's fall into God's graces in another revivalist tent in rural Ohio some 80 years earlier.

Dowd ammased an incredibly large collection of handmade charts, manically composed notebooks of sharpie and ballpoint symbols incohernetly connected in what looks like somewhat of a schizophrenic flowchart of fringe writers and obscure mystics.

Though Morhart was organized into neat piles of discrete anatomy, his clothing was neatly folded at the murder scene. In his jacket pocket was found this curious scribbling.

Desiderata

A natural polyglot, Morhart spoke six languages by the age of 12, one of which he claimed was Aramaic.

The large cyst that developed over his right eye cast no shadow.

Morhart once swayed a hung jury with his beautiful handwriting.
