Vision
-Couldn’t sleep last night, so I
studied the shadows on the wall
and ceiling.
-Mysterious!
-Just the single nightlight in a floor
socket, thus they’re huge!
-Great! Intriguing!
-So...I puzzled out...that’s a bookcase,
that’s an inner shutter, and that’s…
-Long story short?
-I could draw you a detailed diagram
right now! Case utterly solved!
-You have taken mystery and turned
it into you?
-I suppose.
-Longer I live, more I’m cheated!
-Sorry! Next time I’ll leave half
undone! My usual half-ass!
-Leave something!
-What gods get angry if I don’t?
-All of them!

The Analytic Gang
sealed our fated fate!
But Tessie whispered
to Kirk. “Let’s go
somewhere where nothing
snaps into place.”
They went missing for

Came back anxious to

“Enough was enough,”
told she Gladys Alderofer.
“Everything breaks down.”
Mom calls her Glads.
Dad, Sis.
