WASHINGTON PEEP SHOW: A Marginalized Conversation

IMAGE: An image of a veiled woman and some money disbursed against 
       some theater tickets and a blinding ray of light.  

Terri: There's a peep show going on in Washington.

Kris:  (nodding) I know & it's utterly obscene.

Sam:   (in jest) Ah? There aren't any naked people?

Kris:  Just the opposite: many attempts at cover up.

Tim:   Gee? How can I play?

Sam:   Sorry – only a limited number of players are permitted.

Tim:   Which means?

Sam:   You need at least ten million & influential friends to start.

Tim:   Hmm. Maybe I'm not cut out fer dis game, but why are you telling me?

Sam:   (shrugging his shoulders) Why not? Does anything we say really matter?
