A Mild Success in a Dull Business
#1
For twenty odd years
I taught staff
throughout the Southwest
a software for processing 
interlibrary loan requests.

In a teaching lab in Arizona
a loudspeaker interrupted
me again and again
all morning long.

During the dreaded
after lunch session
it began once more.

I looked at the speaker
on the wall and pretended
to load a shell 
into an automatic
and shoot the speaker into silence.

My audience applauded
for the the first 
and last time.



"I'm a mild success in a dull business" quote from John Cassavetes' film Faces.
