Shamefest: Macaulay Culkin
From the dark-dimmed alleyway emerges Macaulay Culkin with two police men escorting him
into their car near the curb. Macaulay has made many deals in this alley and come out with
drugs. This single time, he leaves the alley with no drugs but a leafy green fabric D with a rough
fire-red colored fabric which makes the letter seem like it is being lit on fire. Under the
embellishment is an ornament of a lighter. The D is there to remind Macaulay of the drug abuse
that he has committed in the past and is finally found guilty for.
In the streets, the surrounding observers are watching this celebrity as he is shoved into the back
of the car. They judge him for what he has done and all that is heard is the siren of the car as it
drives away and the whispers of the men and women around the scene.
