A union Plumber comes to Harlem
fiction
Edward w Pritchard
It's not raining and he's carrying an umbrella and it's not cold and he's wearing a gray silk scarf. It's not the 1940's and he's talking about count Basie and it's not Saturday night and he wants to hear swing music. A union plumber comes to Harlem.
Grandma wanted a white man to fix the problem with the pipes.
It's the same each time. Southern cooking is the best they ate it as a boy. Langston Hughes is a significant writer and Duke Ellington is a consummate artist.
Southern cooking killed Grandpa of heart attack and we just want to get our pipes fixed at a reasonable cost.
It's not raining and he's carrying an umbrella and it's not cold and he's wearing a gray silk scarf. A union plumber comes to Harlem.
