Hi Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rufus <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Long time <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Too long <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I see your poetry is going well <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do not flatter me <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are a visionary and you know it <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But that is not why I rang <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is Billie okay <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She is fine <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hear she is in the US <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Flagstaff visiting her sister <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have a novel way of keeping in touch <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That being <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is a webcam at the railroad station <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She either alone or with Benny <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stands in full view of the camera <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sounds fun <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is different especially when one of the Z trains pass <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As I have had some time to spare <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have been reading various novels <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some are quite good but most are mundane <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That said I am reading <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are all Guilty <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was written by William B Good <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is a very nihilistic novel and as cold as ice <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In short it is about the future leader <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of a fictional county <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who is elected on a socialist ticket <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can guess what happens <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Obviously he is very well protected <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But a lone assassin who shares your name <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Decides to bring him down<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He does so by hitting softer targets <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cousin of the Prime Minister <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the sister of one of his acolytes <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These are connected <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the country goes into a meltdown <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The assassin then goes to ground <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no contact <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which makes things even worse <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What happens <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does this lone wolf <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bring the Prime Minister down <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes and no <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Explain <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The novel does not conclude <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reader is left to their own conclusions <\/p>\n\n\n\n
