Lucile

Lucile?
Now where is Lucile?
Haven't seen her for ages. Not that I should care.
She's my husband's "cousin", cept if you check at the town hall, they ain't related at all....as I just found out.
It a small town this.
We folk gotta watch where we be treadin' in this small town.
Watch the tread, watch the walk, watch the talk.
Pretty soon, you be watchin' yourself so closely, ya'll don't have time to live.
Course my husband, he go in the opposite direction.
He figure, everyone so nosy about his business....
he don't have to watch himself as they watchin' for him.
Clever man....but he all clevered out now...now that his cousin ain't exactly a relative.
