  viii) give me back my man

  azadeh picked up the square envelope
  and took it to the kitchen light
  it was addressed to

   'saoirse mcdoodle'

  yet she was sure
  she recognised the writing

   'yes' -- she thought --
   'i know a character
     who used to go by that name
     and she might have changed a bit
     but as i remember correctly,
      never mind the doodle part
     she used to say
      not being able to draw
      is a form of oppression
      and i shall campaign
      accordingly'


  she opened it up

  inside there was a greetings card
  depicting a lady
  with very long hair
  and the words ...

  'peace on earth

   mercy mild'

  ... encircled her


  no money was inside
  or for that matter
  was there any other enclosure
  save the note:

   'luke 7 : 38'

   the uri:

   and, at the bottom:

    'hay disco jojo xx'

   which she took to be
   kisses and a signature
