13,995. GLYMPH AND MCFADDEN

GLYMPH AND MCFADDEN
She came out of the lunch counter
speeding  -  even though she was on
foot. 'Lunchtime, on the run,' she said.
Secretary to the Tax Adjuster; a law
office in old City Hall. She swept past
the Christmas decorations, moving
ahead like no tomorrow could wait. 
An 8 ft. candlestick, higher than her 
head; a toy soldier, bearing a wicked 
grin; and, yes, the old, secular, stand-by
Santa, leering for cookies, and Coke,
and kids.
