I Wish Someone Would Write Me a Short Piece of Fiction about Lucy, the Margate Elephant

Have you been there and visited her? Have you gone inside her? Can you write me a story about her? She's down at the one end of Atlantic City where you can head across the bay to Somers Point, N.J.

Somers Point, N.J. smells like menses and mud.

I guess the people who live there get used to it.

I also saw them building that new huge bridge a few years back in that bay.

I liked watching that.

It looked so beautiful when the white bridge ended out in the middle of nowhere in the water.

Can anyone write me a story featuring Lucy the Margate Elephant?

Just like short short...maybe 500 words or so?

I doubt this will happen, and I realize I'm asking a lot but the urge just struck.

I don't know why.

If Lucy is suddenly in the news you will know I am your psychic sidekick.

I think she might have been in a dream last night or something.

Lucy is neat.

Gertrude Stein wrote Tender Buttons inside that elephant.

The whole book.

Did you know that?









Shhhh.
