The librarian stole my pen!

I went up to the counter and put my stuff down.

The librarian looked at me, with this far-away look, and suddenly spoke(right thru me),"...King Rat, starring Frank Sinatra!!!"

After a long pause - "Ahem, George Segal, maybe??", said I, not very sure as to why I even responded.

No response.
I reached for my pen and it was suddenly gone.

"I had that pen for a long time??", I thought to myself.

One of my girlfriends had given it to me. It was a Pentel Superball, in black.
She gave it to me because she said it reminded her of me.
"I always have a great time when I'm with you", I remember her saying.

Now, it was gone.

"Superball-In Black, by Pentel", I quietly uttered, as I grabbed my stuff and walked out.

Out on the sidewalk, with every step that I took, I kept thinking, "...did I put it on the counter,
did I put it on the counter???"

Oh well, may that pen come to realize its full potential.
