As
Rorschach walked the streets he spoke aloud his entry.
January
17th
"A
father died today: not just any old father, but my father. As I walked the
streets of Las Vegas seeing bodies being piled and the blood soaked sidewalks.
I found it funny that the whores where running a miss without their men to
control them. It left a bad taste in my mouth as I walked my way to the
cemetery making feel sick at all the death and disarray from what was a great
city. I made my into the cemetery as the clouds fell from sky down to the
ground and a cold chill went down my back. I tightened up my trench coat and
adjusted my fedora. As I walked up to my father's grave it read Drom_Lombino a
proud and honored member of the city of Las Vegas. Next to my father was my
mothers and it read Charmed loving wife to Drom Lombino. I left roses at both
of their graves and as I walked away I found my fathers best friend's grave
Inspector Clouseau."
Paused
and laughed remembering a joke that he had heard to try and cheer himself up.
"Man
goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he
feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple.
The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you
up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am
Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum.
Curtains." |
