delivered

when I arrived home, Ms. Lully handed me a fat envelope embossed with

CRITICAL IMPORTANCE

the sender's information was not provided, but I retrieved the letter opener from the hall table and severed the glue's grasp of the edges of the envelope. oddly, all the envelope contained was a small invitation addressed in loopy print to

My friend

the address contained therein was to a humble home on the eastern edge of the town i had observed in passing. five thirty in the evening. five days time.

I could not satisfy my gnawing curiosity as I dared to imagine who would send such a communication of such announced importance with an unstated invitation. Ms. Lully said the person who delivered it to her said it was for Mark Lowell, so it must not have been a mistaken address.

I was tempted to write a response to this absurd writing, but had little hope it would be delivered, not even responded to, before the date I was to be summoned. thus, I resigned myself to further speculation.
