Papa November

Crystal Curry

The virgins guard
the emergency glass. Opal
is dying
in her basement house. The numbers station
croons to the spies: papa november,
papa november.



Opal: "alea
iacta est." The fate
of the empire rests on this
. Gardenia,
Delphinium, Gentian, Mum
save their hula
for some
hangers-on.
