The speculated answer depends
on just what kind of force is implied
and for how long it is applied.

If forced to? One word for all of the above: Annoyance.

There is a dead tree on the right foreground, from which multicoloured
rags hang, a sleeping/dead cat lies at it's foot. On the left, is a
mound of very small comfortable chairs, and a cigarette stub still
smoking on the ground. In the background, against the yellow skies and
the desert, are the armies in metallic green machines. A three year old
in a very large white T-shirt stands in the foreground.

The forcer presses his finger to the force reciever's forehead for 27 seconds,
while somewhere in New York City, someone steps on a tomato fallen from a street
vender's display.

2) A gun: Wet myself at Fort Knox. Public laminations.
3) A ring: A corrosive ape wearing a tie-dye cassock comes into
the cemetery.
4) Three women: The first would be the baby of the other two. The
second would be
winded from a long climb. The third
would be stitched together
from Louisiana crayfish bibs. I would be
in love, but the world would
be in trouble.
5) An eyeball: An angular depression in a three-wheeled owl within
which one would
find a box full of matches with tiny lions'
heads.
6) Mountains: Novalis Skincare Cream in a collop of bruised liver.
7) The sky: There would be shyness blooming into relevant rage
and directed at the
nearest public fountain.
8) A child playing with a toy: Only a thin layer of blood on a
cobbled side street
comes readily to
mind.
9) Animals in a basement: Pornography cupcakes in the Pope's lunch
bucket.
10) A parade: Bored inactivity followed by slumber. When I awoke
the parade
would be over!
