I asked the word,
Kamprachikos.
Who knows the word Kamprachikos?
And who knows its meaning?
The Kamprachikos,
or Kamprakenos,
were a hideous and nondescript association of wanderers.
Famous in the 17th century,
forgotten in the 18th,
unheard of in the 19th.
The Kamprachikos are like succession powder,
an ancient social characteristic detail.
They are part of old human ugliness.
To the great eye of history,
which sees everything collectively,
the Kamprachikos belong to the
colossal fact of slavery.
Joseph,
sold by his brethren,
is a chapter in their story.
The Kamprachikos have left their traces
in the penal laws of Spain and England.
You find here and there,
in the dark confusion of English,
laws that impress of this horrible
truth,
like the footprint of a savage in a forest.
Kamprakenos is a compound Spanish word signifying child buyers.
The Kamprachikos traded in children.
They bought and sold them.
They did not steal them.
The kidnapping of children is another branch of industry.
And what did they make of these children?
Monsters.
Why monsters?
To laugh at.
Ha ha ha ha.
