Man and Bible Seen in a Circa Visit and Fishes Slime
A long piece blends poetry on gods and man with a Aunt Sally Warner obituary vignette about a fall from a barn roof. Joe Henderson lures Aunt Sally to a charity circus, she enjoys the show but confronts guilt, and a village minister offers cautious forgiveness. The text then shifts to a scientific note on fish slime, its production, purpose, and role in protection and movement.
