Wanting is—what?
(A Billiard Mystery. From the new volume “Jomilleria.”)
Wanting is—what?
Scoring addition,
Getting position,
Here on the spot?
Seamy his clothes, yet a crack at the game.
—Marker he knows, and addresses by name:
What of the sharper, what of his power?
Gloomily glowering with nought to devour!
