looked down upon the smiling faces. He met the gazes observed the spaces between the old men’s cackle. He brewed a song of love and hatred, oblique suggestions and he waited. He polarized the pumpkin-eaters, static-humming panel-beaters, freshly day-glow’d factory cheaters (salaried and collar-scrubbing). He titillated men-of-action belly warming, hands still rubbing on the parts they never mention. He pacified the nappy-suffering, infant-bleating, one-line jokers, T.V. documentary makers (overfed and undertakers). Sunday paper backgammon players family-scarred and women-haters.
