the old typewriter has wound itself
too tight to permit the movement
necessary to writing with that device

resort to pen and journal
to one of the computers
to capture the flow of words

like clouds blowing over this town
the threat of a winter storm nearby
but light snow only for fredericton

first set in police station basement
smoking gun on the pistol range
bull's eye target pierced 15 times
