Very clever, artistic and poetic FJ. I've read it through a few times over a couple of days and the ending I chose matched my thoughts about the world and my mood at that time. :) Cheers - Gary

this is WICKED GOOD...as a Bostonian would say. it hooks you, plays you and reels you in.....at least it did me. Should do well in the contest...if it does't there'll be an inquiry.
