behavioral suggestions during my reading at the "Sons of Italy Hall"


feel free to walk around, to eat and drink,
to excuse yourselves and quick-step toward the door.
feel free to stay for the long haul to the benefit or the detriment
to posterity. feel free to wear lapel pins indicating your preferences.  
feel free to make yourselves available to ushers if bewildered by
certain passages or misguided adjectives. 
feel free to come-about from the effects left in the flotsam 
of God and Flag as presented by officials beforehand.
feel free to gossip amongst yourselves if bored to death or tears.
feel free to be enlightened, or to scream bloody hell while calling for my head!

the fluorescents will inhale to signal an end to it,
and the ritual of gathering your belongings to begin.

finito.
