The Ecphorizer

Frankenstein Compact
Neal Wilgus

Issue #05 (January 1982)

The part of the first party,
to wit: the head,
had been removed
from a body, dead.
 
The part of the second party,
i.e., the bod, had lost its head
and was acting odd.
 
And the first party first
and the second party next
confessed that life alone
left them both perplexed.
 
Then the second party part
put the first's part on
and they got it all together,
kicked their heels and they were gone. 


An authority on the Illuminati, Wilgus lives in Albuquerque where he writes for several poetry, literary, and science fiction magazines. He is a member of the Assassination Special Interest Group (SIG) of Mensa.
