Something's Missing
May 19, 2018
Break into
Le Louvre
MoMA
The National Gallery.
Gather as many as possible
before getting caught.
They wouldn't expect you to want them. . .
"Assistant, what's been stolen?"
"Something seemingly unimportant,
Detective.
The Mona Lisa,
The Scream,
Starry Night
are all in their proper places."
"What? Then why call us?"
"Pardon, Detective.
I believe you're looking but not seeing.
There is powder
around them."
"It seems the thief added
rather than took. . ."
"True, but untrue.
Look here, detective.
The thief left a portrait of you in this room."
"What a witty fellow. He's got me framed."
"That's what's missing, sir."
"Quite right, assisatnt. It is the picture frames that are missing."
