The Stones

This book is dedicated to two men I met along the way, Gray and the C. I. A. agent named the Repeller, for he repelled down everyone. A man, before I ever knew his name, I knew his flame and came to hear his call, About the gypsy with a ball. I once said to George, "To hell and back." George called me out on it after the crack, the crack of the baseball bat as he hit it out of the park. "Hey, Blondy, I need a little help here... I'm on a tack wearing flak."
