Lost and Found
      for Glenn
Zane Parks
 

In the city on business. Dinner at a posh restaurant with an associate. Four queens at the next table. Flirting outrageously. They leave, dropping something at my feet. I retrieve it and turn to find them gone. It's a small canister, the sort that holds film. There are a couple of joints inside. When we leave, I give it to the maitre d'. He opens it and says, "Nice tip."
