Walking the Talk
Rich texted Larbie.
sbucks & dealing!
ten! came the instant answer.
When Larbie hustled in, a double
vanilla latte awaited.
“Softening me up?”
They got quickly into it. Tedious
at first, but a breakthrough when
Larbie finally agreed on additional cash
to be determined by the accountants.
They shook hands then.
So, Rich’s Mona-Ruth traded to him for his
Cameron and Melody.
Contingent on the women accepting,
of course.
This is 2017!

Adjusting the Scenario
Seems truly bent
when you refuse
the deal. Over-
complex, you say.
Shady, you mean.
Sad, for such
compacts require
a nice hand thus
for Feds
to nail.
