he keeps squirreling away his bits

    similar to his Maw

but she squirreled away cash

                                 Youve told onetwo of the kids your hidin plac . .

. . Yes. You think I’m stupid? she thought all men thought women stupid

he was her son

                Not stupid

Just might forget where you hid itparticularly if youre spreading the wealth an at some sudden inspired by a new spotThat’s a good spotwhy didn’t I think of that before?

    I know where my cash is hidden.

The nowhere troubles me

                               Why not just in your closet pockets of favourite coats in your pantie drawer 

compliment  didnt say bloomers  an envelope taped to the bottom of Dads bottom drawer where he keeps his girlie magazines

air went out of their conversationspiraled down into the abyss

    He hasn’t girlie magazines.  He has me.

For strange between them they never pulled punches

 

the benefit of him squirreling his bits outperformed his mother straightaway

his family wont be any poorer when he dies and they cant findem

                                                                        or will even look

his writing only interested him

hed lie

          Say gang

When I croak I want you to know Ive hidden money around my house

                                                                                tantalise them

Whadaya think cowboy

                            Youre the master of tenminute YouTubes

    That . feeels . . . like a crack.

Youre getting better at this

                              It is

What are you knockin’ me about now?

Let me count the ways

Quit.

         What?

Wont read books if the page count exceeds   I don know  Twofifty

I’d say that was a good guess.

                                  No tomes in my life.

Clever  Beat me to the punch

Only because last time we got high you soundly beat me up for refusing to attempt a tome, any tome.

Tons of tomes

                  You recalled

You were unsparing.

I usually am

You are.

              The ten-minute YouTube.

Ja

      Youre eyeballs flutter when I tell you about my Chautauquas those podcasts theyre on YouTube also  hourfifteen houranahaf

Yeah. No.

             Not my cup of tea.

Think AI algorithms have fashionedhave suggested tha theyre tha

                                                                       Thaway holdin sway holdin viewers attention so they go down the rabbithole watch an hourtwo hours  Three hours

Which woud be an hourtwo  longer than my Chautauquas

    May . . be.

You know wha I think beyond wha Ive said

You’ll have to say.

                      I never know where your head’s going.

Remember early records fortyfives their brisk format  Radio playtime cut off at three minutes

I’m not familiar.

You can look it up on your phone later

                                           Caught Billy Joels HBO documentary 

You recall his song The Entertainer

I think, I think I do.

Theres a line in it

                     It was a beautiful song, but it ran too long. If you're gonna have a hit, you gotta make it fit, so they cut it down to threeohfive.

I’m not familiar with it.

                         You’re lucky I remember the name Billy Joel.

Radio kept musicians songs short

                                     For consumption  Advertising in between

Seems logical AI woud insist on tentwelve minute YouTubes

Just an observation

    I preferred LPs Long Playing  So you don agonise like I do over the abuse of acronyms
