12,141. FAROES ISLAND

FAROES ISLAND
Never the magazine, never the booklet.
I've always kept quiet in the jaws of
defeat. Mystifying silence is a better
tactic than screaming. Put down the
ice-water glass and come with me to
the market. We can pinch a penny or
two while you look at goats and lambs.
We can dine, smiling, while watching
the big farm grow.
-
Well, as it goes, that was some pretty
rough writing. Singular sentences in
a linear row; like an arm wrestling
day in the sunny penitentiary. The
lawmen and the Governor, in fact,
may visit? You don't say!
