THE DIVA'S PRAYER

Armani
Which Art in Hermes
Hallowed be thy Gucci
Thy Cartier watch
Thy Prada bag
on Rodeo
As it is in Tiffany's
Give us this day, our Visa Gold
And forgive us this overdraft
As we forgive those who stop our Mastercard
Lead us not into JC Penney
And deliver us from Sears
For thine is the Chanel, the Gaultier and the Versace
For Dolce and Gabbana
Amex

from them this year."

juice was not meant to be.

It was Judi's first plane trip. Boarding the aircraft she settled
into a window seat in the non-smoking section. A man came

in the United States, remains constant. If one is omitted in one

they cause a Texan to "warsh" his car and invest in "erl wells".

great grandchildren and a fifteen foot hole in the wall of
the crematorium.
