friend in his head it sounded like Karloffs blackanwhite Frankenstein monster addressing the old man

        occasionally discussing this or that friend would take offence then go off on a tear a bluster flushred in a firm and abiding faith belief his becoming irrational torrent would sweep him away  toss his opposing stance on its head
                      stance  stand

all this time he still didnt get it
     

chalk it up to his short memory

there was no need to remind him

by the following week hed forget
                                       Man, you’re full of shit, talking through your hat.
You’re not listening to me.

Im listening  Im hearing

                            You have yet to state your source
Im listening

I don’t know who they wer . .
. . They

You gonna hang me with they?

Each an every time  You know better
                                        Make an argument with me anya better come armed with who they is
Where Ill find your facts

    incensed  The fact . I’m telling you ought to be sufficient.

shaking his head no  Ya know better 

                                        Not in my book
the flushred in his face was beginning to look as if a tourniquet was wrapped around his throat  it deepening   purpling

I have an idea

I’m not susceptible.

Best be  Looks like your ready to stroke out
                                                 Its a good idea
What?     

Lets take a breath   Breathe

                                 Then for a temporary validation of whaya understand
We be silent for fifteen seconds
                                   Not a word

Silence

Agreeable

he grunted

Ill take tha as a yes

 

 

he thought  Provocation Coercion   Was where he started

                                                                 Might he do something about that
No
Nope

the blood had drained out of his face

    Better

Bit better.


Occasionally I have a good idea

Let’s not get carried away.
