there are dignitaries

                      hed heard of themhadnt met one yet though which he was sure he wouldnt   

he felt if offered an introduction hed duck it 

dignitary  

          one who if discovered might be culled out murdered thugs gotta turn out all the bright lights that could illuminate their hijinksas theyd say their crimesas dignitaries would say 

                                                                             but dead menwomen tell no tales

the indignity tarry they drag their feet looking for pityfor pittance and bitch nothing shared with them is ever enough they follow the same channel or course as the greedy more is never enough

that was a dialog inside his head  outwardly he smiled pleasantly  etched on his face 

                                                                                            he had no interest in their conversationtheir vying back and forth about cars engine sizes colours GrabberYellow he heard that  GrabHer humoured himself cubic inches horsepower scoops airfoils airfoils made him think of Asians they were very fond and since he couldnt possibly add a fucking thing to their badabingbadabooms he tried to look amused while in his head under his monologue their insipid bassline thumped yada yada yadayada over and over 

he didnt know how long he could take it

                                          like Chinese water torture that tickled him too obscured their drone  Hippolytus de Marsiliis a Bologna lawyer doctor utriusque juris doctor of both laws  civil and canon 

                                                                                    good ol Hippolytus was the first to document water torture and sleep deprivation in the late 15th early 16th Century  right smackdab in the middle of the Inquisition established by Pope Gregory  13th Century  to suppress heresy  gotta love those Catholics

apparently as kids while he read literature Playboy avoided comicbooks they were into comicsinto Hot Rod CustomCar car kulture DeLuxe

they didnt have busted knuckles 

                                   though somehow cars their specifications bodylines names the particular year tickledfascinated them

Man  all he ever wanted out of a car was to put in the key in the ignition turn it right fireup the engine manually roll his window down and go 

                        V8s Straights he could give a fuck  Lemme roll

Excuse me youll have to forgive me they didnt look at him despite the interruption I gotta go Good seeing ya

Yeah, we’ll see you later. they chimed  still intent in each other

 

beyond earshot he sighed 

                            in the future he wasnt going to entertain an interior dialog  unless they brought aboard a curvaceous chick who could be talent in a bikini appearing on a muscle car magazine cover

he was pretty sure she wouldnt be interested in cubic inches
