wreath pt2

we have two minutes
to move the cars
out of sight
to avoid witnesses in disguises
but their clothes were too shabby to fool anyone with money
and the dogs waiting patiently in the parking lot gave them away
the cop was a rookie
in ten seconds he would ask the veteran how to live his life
but this was beyond probability
it was not even possible
it was the only fact in the veteran's life
he was made in starlight on a planet
where blue shadows with mirrors
made illusions come true
what did he know?
he ate breakfast when the night shift was finished
and then again after he woke up in the afternoon
it just worked out that way
