Cadences


They set out snares
amid the symbols,

and all but the high-
hats cared. After,

I forget my glasses!
Like a piece of you
omitted in confusion.


Well a kind someone reaches
my cell, and I go briefly

back. You relive something
different over any return.

What seems gone being
restored, of course. But
more than what’s discovered.

Why you make up
in love

of Hope.

Interims


-So, the mystery as to the
whereabouts of Lutz?

-Didn't call and Personnel
can't reach him, home or cell.

-Maybe he went somewhere.
What did he say Friday?

-Not much.

-Why is he so shy? He ain't
that good!

-Uh huh? Now don't say it in
Yiddish.

-Funnier there.

-Moving right along...?

-Last thing he said at the
meeting with Grover and Gloria...

-That hadda be productive!

-WAS! “In the interim...”

-Ah hah!

-Really?

-He's trapped in the Interim.

-This happens?

-Of course, but events sweep
you out of it. Or you really
adhere to a schedule, and
every ten-minute block is
filled.

-You don't get an interim in
that anal-retentive case.

-Never!

-Tragedy!
“But, what we do further?” 
the Captain asked Jellybean.

-“More clues about him might provide the key
to get him out, Captain Sparky!”
That book
changed my alleged life!

-His dog is Ginger.

-Good! Wife?

-Ginger also.

-How does he call one in when
both digging for bones?

-You've seen her?

-What else do you know?

-You mean about him or everything?

-Answer's the same: Nothing!
He could be locked in the Interim
forever.

-Oh! he was engaged once to Marcy
from Shipping.

-She could supply some intelligence.

-Not her.

-Well, we're lost!

-In an interim?

-Maybe always in one or another.

-Well, I don't like it!

-Who cares?

-Same people who care about Lutzy.

-Nobody then.
