Where Audacious Speech is Considered

Princess Afternoon was out of breath. She had been stamping back and forth saying provocative things for some time and she felt a wheeze coming on. Zoe had briefly peeked out the upstairs window where she had been performing a special kind of meditation that involved a lot of silence and green silk pajamas from Burma.  There was a suspicious rustling in the bushes and she caught the tail end of Bagman's fringed lemon yellow sarong disappear into the brush. "Smokin' Jehosephat", she swore," this goading business is feverish stuff" She hoped the dam would break soon or she might have to consider the explosive mix  of politics, religion and sex to blow the doors off the reluctant bunch and send them streaming towards her in a maddened froth. Hmmm... that could have its drawbacks if she continued to the end of that particular image. She sighed and went into the kitchen for a glass of lemonade. She would take a break and think this over.
