Gumshoe 3

That jimmie will probably be out in two shakes of a tail’s lam copping a feel for a cop in a field of copse brings a turn-around

perps line up for drive -bys like critics on opening nights shooting out blunt lines with sawed -offs who needs the cast?

The down side is the endless waiting disguised from dreadlocks to santa-suits in trades’ vans to cadillacs

hours and days peering out searching in sheltered behind doors and windows trucks and garbage cans until the play begins

behind the scenes it is the perps who write the scripts and we, the patsies for one john/jane doe are the pawns in the latest electronic game.
