Zimmer: Dear Clarice |
| Dear Clarice… |
| I have followed|with enthusiasm… |
| The course of your disgrace|and public shaming. |
| My own never bothered me… |
| Except for the inconvenience|of being incarcerated. |
| But you may lack perspective. |
| In our discussions|down in the dungeon… |
| It was apparent to me|that your father… |
| The dead night watchman… |
| Figures largely|in your value system. |
| I think your success|in putting an end… |
| To Jame Gumb’s career|as a couturier… |
| Pleased you most… |
| Because you could imagine|your father being pleased. |
| But now, alas, you’re in|bad odor with the FBI. |
| Do you imagine your daddy|being shamed by your disgrace? |
| Do you see him|in his plain pine box… |
| Crushed by your failure? |
| The sorry, petty end|of a promising career? |
| What is worst about|this humiliation, Clarice? |
| Is it how your failure… |
| Will reflect|on your mommy and daddy? |
| Is your worst fear that people|will now and forever… |
| Believe they were indeed… |
| Just good old trailer camp,|tornado-bait, white trash? |
| And that perhaps you are, too? |
| By the way,|I couldn’t help noticing… |
| On the FBI’s|rather dull public website… |
| That I have been hoisted… |
| From the Bureau’s archives|of the common criminal… |
| And elevated|to the more prestigious… |
| Ten Most Wanted List. |
| Is this coincidence,|or are you back on the case? |
| If so, goody goody. |
| I need to come out of retirement|and return to public life. |
| Clearly this new assignment|is not your choice. |
| Rather, I suppose it is|part of the bargain… |
| But you accepted it, Clarice. |
| Your job is to craft my doom. |
| So I am not sure how well|I should wish you… |
| But I’m sure|we'll have a lot of fun. |
| Ta-ta. |
