Edward Said, “We’ll Pick Up a Couple of Flashlights”
lost in the dismal thoughts- Don’t rush me, Edward!
- we’ll pick up a couple of flashlights
- was killed by thieves
- was a dinner guest once again
- he likely plunged in deeper
Edward said, “We’ll pick up a couple of flashlights for the walk home, so we’ll be safe. Unlike Frank, who loved the dark and was killed by thieves. Ulrike also loved darkness, but had better luck. She knocked on a door and was a dinner guest once again. Xavier is harder to account for. He likely plunged in deeper, becoming a thief himself, but not killing Frank. That would never happen, but Xavier does get lost in the dismal thoughts of his varsity days. Mascot. Hideous. So, where do you buy your flashlights?”
“Don’t rush me, Edward!”
