red talon visits whitney

[halligan]

the lobby, whitney. friday night.

heyigotaquestion

someone swats arlo's shoulder he turns
guy who used to collect matching ralph lauren sets
red talon
arlo turns away

i said i've got

turns back
ralph grins too toothy

we heard you saw the cougar.

he realizes what's coming

how many of you did it take to not kill that feral?

not enough moonshine to hear wrong too little to ignore the guy
his buddies chime in

trade their nerf guns for big boy toys

target practice start with squirrels

call us next time

later when arlo feels like his split lip slices all the way through his brain he'll argue
how ralph consented to the first punch
by being such a shitstain
he owes arlo a new blueberry pie shine
