The Hiss Within A Leak Within A Crack: An Occupational Hazard>Act 34

Disclaimer: Beware of the little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship. One leak will sink a ship: and one sin will destroy a sinner. We are eager to tunnel under the Atlantic and bring the Old World some weeks nearer to the New; but perchance the first news that will leak through into the broad, flapping American ear will be that the Lucia The Magnificent has the whooping cough. We seldom lose our faith by a blow out, usually is just a slow leak. We must have infinite faith in each other. If we have not, we must never let it leak out that we have not. Fiction can be that way sometimes. Any similarities to persons living or dead are purely coincidental & should not be taken or misconstrued as such. Anyone who thinks otherwise probably believes that lying down and listening to the crabgrass grow, is like listening to babies who leak at both ends; the drips, the leaks and the dew drops do catch up with each other eventually.

It is often said that there is slickness to The Most Divine Heart, a slickness that tends to ease up once certain criteria is in place, say like something pleasing to the eyes or ears. Mass confusion consumes the tragic priest, but unlike the Lochness Monster or The Jersey Devil that is rarely seen, The Most Divine Heart makes sure it is seen, heard, felt and will stop at nothing to punish the innocent and praise the guilty.

One might believe that the opposite would be true, but not for The Most Divine Heart. While the feelings appear to be mutually gratifying, underneath the surface of it all, there appears to be a leak within the system, a crack within the pipes and a slow hiss that can be heard throughout the echoing walls on Devil’s Island.

A hiss so loud, that The Most Divine Heart is doing its best to cover it up. Ah, the cover-up! Even Laurel & Hardy, The Marx Bros., Abbott & Costello & Borat combined, can do a far better job of covering up than The Most Divine Heart!

But that doesn’t matter; The Most Divine Heart has its work cut out for it; but to help with its campaign of misinformation, Broadcast Betty & Dirt-Dishing Daisy are already spreading the foundation quickly with false rumors, left behind or perhaps designed to trip up the most hardcore of prisoners on Devil’s Island.

Tripping up prisoners is nothing new for The Most Divine Heart, as it has spent most of its life averting, diverting, skirting and otherwise avoiding the inevitable, that yes, someone else knows what it is up to and that not only tripping up tactics combined with false punishment and misinformation is cause for celebration!

So let us rejoice! Rejoice in the mere fact that punishment is good! False information is excellent! Still, covering up a crack in the pipes is merely a temporary fix. A temporary fix, added onto so many other fixes, piled high and deep, until the original fix is compounded by complications and unknown pressure.

And once the pressure starts to mount and mount further, there’s no telling when the leak will balloon up, explode and expose the nasty hiss that’s been hidden all this time. The Most Divine Heart has been avoiding this moment for so long, but then again, how does one know for certain? The nasty hiss is mirrored in its eyes; etched in its brain; spoken in its swagger; stained within its swaddle!

Yes, that is how!

You can see it for yourself when The Most Divine Heart passes by with its ominous stare of doom and despair; a look that Broadcast Betty & Dirt-Dishing Daisy seem to have adopted quite handily when they scour Devil’s Island for miniscule clues or mindless details on any given subject matter.

The Most Divine Heart
wants to make itself known, other than what it is, but in order to do that, it must work harder to rid itself of its nasty demons, such as the demons that persist in its mind; snap at its heels; flail upon it every chance that it opens itself up for.

Far too late to hide the hiss, the hiss has exposed more than The Most Divine Heart would want to show in its hand.

Devil’s Island lifer Lucia The Magnificent sums up the situation at hand like this, “Exposure of the skin is the greatest single weapon one can use in destroying its enemies.” Lucia can be so brilliant at times, so very brilliant.

For The Most Divine Heart, having a hiss within a leak within a crack is thrice what could have been forecasted and in a way, that’s kind of cool.

For many know, the future on Devil’s Island is unpredictable, yet that being said, The Most Divine Heart knows what it must do to keep afloat. Its days are numbered, dark and mysterious. God help the day when the hiss is awakened like a dormant volcano and spews forth its wrath upon all those that crossed its path previously.

That could only happen in one place; Devil’s Island!
