Morse Code at end of “I Will Cook You and Eat You” says

“Cactus River Stone Thunder Wolf Meadow Lotus Pumpkin Silver Trick Velvet Yarn
Serene Hippie Lady Weaving a Glowing Tapestry of Space
A Woman and a Bat Posing in a Sun-Dappled Forest
Sukrat Drones from the Underground”

And
“I will cook you and eat you” (that’s what I half-jokingly yell at birds that eat the cat food we put on our back porch for strays and neighborhood barn cats.)
