The Number
Scarf
(The Witchdoctor has
asked one of the Wives for her fashionable silk scarf (she has been wearing it
as a dress!). It is emblazoned with bold numbers on an elegant checkerboard
pattern. He holds it up; and then, using El Sultam’s German Formulas, begins to
wave it back and forth in the jungle air)

NARRATOR
Does one of the Wives have a
number scarf
to start off with, when she
leaves her husband in the city?
A silk number scarf, black
and white,
decorated with numbers on a
graph?
ONLOOKER
The Witchdoctor is an ‘old
spindle-fingers’
because he can weave
anything
in and out of his hands;
including all the skyscraper
nuclear-reaction numbers
from off the top of the
feathers
wrapped and tied around his
brow!
NARRATOR
The Witchdoctor has got one
Wife’s scarf
and is challenging it out to
the sky;
forcing it to yield numbered
secrets aloft
(along with her sweet smells
and so forth)
in the loops, twists and
spins
that he wields it with (her
perfume arising);
all the while, staring,
chanting, hopping
and rotating around
over his secrets;
over either his liquid plate
of secrets
(with El Sultam’s formulas
added)
or his stony plate of
secrets
that might bear aloft
the twin-sister Wives
as tokens and tear them home
-
take them home!
Yes, the Two Wives
are the Witchdoctor’s token.
And that’s okay, as long as
he
wields his power
to bob them up to the sky
to cross over the mighty
Pacific’s rim
east to the east
without dropping them.
ONLOOKER
He better have
sure and certain
concentration.
NARRATOR
That he does with his Baobob
drink.
It ‘fusions’ him
and sends his power -
but we won’t go in to that!
His wily craft is endless to
discuss.
It’s an endless query.
ONLOOKER
He’s a stone-age leftover.
NARRATOR
Yes, with all the prehistoric
incantatory tricks -
lifting things, rolling
them,
using leaves and plants,
counting.
He can do it all!
The
Husbands’ Experience In Their Office

| 2 Husbands and the 2 cans in their office |
SMALLY
Look here!
The graph is arching,
billowing,
showing us its excitability
in the flashing of its
clearest numbers
to the top (where it’s the whitest)
before they are folded over
and underneath.
BIGGY
And it’s demonstrating its
‘all-one’ sense:
that it won’t come apart
but will flow
into two manually directed,
stabilizing tools;
leaving and collecting
evenly, likewise,
a shared propensity
to establish deadlines and
accumulate figures
for us.
SMALLY
And we are willing to share
the same drinking fountains
of figures, each;
knowing the pipes are there,
layering and crisscrossing
underneath
with exactly the same water
going back and forth.
NARRATOR
This is a miracle that
‘stayed apart’
as the two men were holding
their mugs or cans
across the table from each
other!
ONLOOKER
And as they held them up
empty,
the sacred chart flew off
the wall
and began to equally fill
both their mugs
in a balancing stream
back and forth.
NARRATOR
In an arching band
of flexible information
folding and banding
and succinctly being seen
but disappearing again and
again
into their emptied coffee
cups.
This is the ‘Two Can Do’
experiment
which leads to nothing,
probably;
because all those numbers
can’t be used
except to go inside the dry
coffee cups.
ONLOOKER
And we don’t know what
happens there?
NARRATOR
It’s just a jumping, leaping
phenomena
that happens.
Pressured up energies
are sharing their attraction
to emptinesses...
ONLOOKER
Toward two bowls of
affection
innocently held up
after being loved, drained
and appreciated.
Note to Reader: We do think that the Witchdoctor’s knowledge is
affecting the Two Husbands’ experience...
