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. |
