a future congressman

in the men’s room at the

track

this boy of about

7 or 8 years old

came out of a stall

and the man

waiting for him

(probably his father)

asked,

“what did you do with the

racing program?

I gave it to you

to keep.”

“no,” said the boy,

“I ain’t seen it! I don’t

have it!”

they walked off and

I went into the stall

because it was the only one

available

and there

in the toilet

was the

program.

I tried to flush

the program

away

but it just swam

sluggishly about

and

remained.

I got out of

there and found

another

empty stall.

that boy was ready

for his life to come,

he would undoubtedly

be highly successful,

the lying little

prick.
