Sample:
It was a warm afternoon
in early September when I first met the Illustrated Man. I didn’t know he was
Illustrated then. …
He took his shirt off.
He was covered with Illustrations from the blue tattooed ring about his neck to
his belt line. He was a riot of rockets and fountains and people. There were
yellow meadows and blue rivers and mountains and stars and suns and planets
spread in a Milky Way across his chest.
“You see,” said the
Illustrated Man, “the Illustrations predict the future. It’s all right in
sunlight. But at night the pictures move. The pictures change. Don’t you
look at them, I warn you. Turn the other way when you sleep.”
The night was serene. I
lay back a few feet from him. He didn’t seem violent, and the pictures were
beautiful. I let my eyes fill up on them.
Sixteen illustrations,
sixteen tales. I counted them one by one.
Primarily my eyes
focused upon a scene, a large house with two people in it. I saw a flight of
vultures on a blazing flesh sky, I saw yellow lions, and I heard voices.
The
first Illustrations quivered and came to life. …

I know of no shortcuts.
