he had just written on comedy
went to his next page of notes
read the top of the pagebursted
into laughter
Baby if he hadnt a sense of humour he would have
laid down long ago an died
he lived
for shit like this
MARUTA
his deep abiding pursuit of
reading and vigilant head-on-a-swivelif he wasnt walkingreading together developed
a trove of useless information inane trivia
that when pricked dribbled out
Why do I know that Because
once upon a time you confronted it idiot
he liked when he had
his back
there
were a whole lot of them
he
was faceted like a gemstone
Sowhas Maruta refresh my memory
Well Im tickled theres actually a Maruta an Asian market and deli
in Georgetown Seattle Washington I also
read about Maruta
I really
hope theyre being tongue an cheek wink wink nod nod Next time Im up visiting my daughter Ill stop
in an ask
Yes you will
Indubitably
Just
had to say that
Indubitably
Teed ya up like a golfball
Dimples
not facets
You yah I can only wish I had dimples
They
wouldnt suit you
Cleft Kurt Douglas chin
No Your scars suit you
Thank you for noticing
Youre
welcome
he had such polite facetswhen they
wanted to be usually they were as coarse
as he
Maruta
Ofcourse Yes
Its a Japanese code name for
victims of human experimentation during World War Two The thousands who diedwere killed were
Chinese and Korean people No hair off
our American chinny chin chins Three
Little Pigs
Yes the Three Little Pigs Good Thank
you Yabetcha
I thought then as I read about
Maruta they must have thought Nazis not
got nuthin on us
Ouch
Yes perhaps but murder of the Other has always been our
wayour human way Once upon a time there
were six hominids now just our homo
sapiens bet your bottom dollar that wasnt
an Ooops it was an exterminationthe
extermination of the Other
Unit 731 of the Japanese
Imperial Army Their cover story to Chinese locals in Pingfang was they
were operating a lumber mill Somewhat commiserate to lines Nazis handed Polish locals
Nothing to see here
When someonewhen your enemy insists
theres nothing to see in your own backyard look
I was astonished
I
don think I was here at the time
Possible I never know whos coming or going
Lifes funny
