"I can't believe it." Chewing his fingernails, the rookie stared out the window. "The book's in our care for just one night, and someone goes and steals it!"

"Not to worry." The detective wore a #placid smile. "They only made off with a fake."

"So where's the #original?"

"In my car."

"That old banger?"

VICIOUS REGRET
This weather induces headaches, the
Dim light too bright for the horizonless
Day that limps along with its own
Suicidal ideations, wanting to end
Before night comes. A tired living,
Drawn in an ever repeating screaming
Circle of vicious regret and static.
At its origin, some still unknown
Kernel of something where nothing
Was nor should have been, and now
This billion years later joyless day.
