Come Haltingly, On Lame Feet

Stage: an all-night eatery in the early A.M. Dramatis personae: two women, a street gang, neo-nazi thugs, a Christian minister and an old man who claims to be Wotan. Cue winter storm and . . . action! (Note: inspired by Robert E. Howard's "The Gray God Passes" and Harlan Ellison's "The Whimper of Whipped Dogs."
