Lace Ballet Skirts. And now……today's story. (MUSIC UP…..)
GK: Lucille? SS: Yes? GK: Somebody told me you and Lars went to hear Liszt at the Lyceum
in LeSueur last Saturday. SS: In LeSueur? GK: Yes. SS: Who said? GK: Lisel. SS: Lisel said that Lars and I went to the Liszt concert at the
LeSueur Lyceum? GK: Last Saturday. SS: It wasn't the LeSueur Lyceum, it was the Lindstrom, but yes,
I went. GK: To the Liszt. With Lars. SS: With Lars and Lisel and Lisel's Llasa apsos Lassie and Lizzie.
GK: I didn't know Lars liked Liszt. SS: We went for lasagna to La Scala and Lars was giving me lasso
lessons. With the Llasa apsos' leashes. I said, "Let's listen to
Liszt" and he said, "Let's." So he and Lisel and I went
in the Lindstrom Lyceum with Louise. For the Liszt. GK: Louise? SS: She's with Lisel. They're lesbians. GK: Which Liszt was it? SS: The Lysistrata Quintet. GK: Oh? You and Lars and Lisel and Louise listened to the Lysistrata
Quintet of Liszt? SS: In Lindstrom. Yes. GK: Lisel said it was Liszt's Illicit Sextet. SS: Lisel? GK: Said you and Lars listened to Liszt's Illicit Sextet at the
Lyceum in LeSueur. Or Lindstrom. What's that on your eyelashes? SS: Lysol. GK: Why Lysol? SS: The Llasa apsos have lice. GK: Lars's? SS: Lisel's. GK: She said you left my lapis necklace there. The lapis necklace
I lent you for the Laissez Fair. SS: No, I leased it. To Louise. And it's not lapis. It's Lucite. GK: Lucite? You leased it to Lisel's Louise? SS: Lesbians love Lucite and I was listening to Liszt and she
said, "Lease me your Lucite." So I said, Sure. GK: And the leopardskin miniskirt. SS: What leopardskin miniskirt? GK: The one that unlaces in back. SS: I must've left it in Lindstrom. GK: How could you? SS: I was listening to Liszt. GK: With Lars. SS: It wasn't Lars, it was the Liszt. GK: His Illicit Sextet. SS: No. The Lysistrate Quintet. GK: Were you lonesome? SS: Yes. GK: For Lars? SS: No. For you, Louis. I sat at the Lindstrom Lyceum listening
to Liszt with the leashed Llasa apsos and Lisel and Louise and the leased
Lucite necklace ---- GK: And Lars. SS: Yes. And I was lonesome for you. GK: Despite Lars? Your lasso instructor? SS: Louis? GK: Yes. SS: Look at me. GK: Yes? SS: Nothing licentious happened at the Lindstrom Lyceum. GK: Nothing lascivious? SS: No, sir. GK: No lust was elicited by the Illicit Sextet---- SS: Lysistrata Quartet---- GK: Did the Lyceum have a license? SS: A license? GK: For the Liszt? SS: No. GK: So it was an unlicensed Liszt recital. SS: Yes. GK: Are you on Lithium? SS: Do you have a lisp? GK: You mean Liszt? SS: Louis. GK: I can't believe you leased the Lucite necklace------ our liaison,
Lucille ---- has it lost its luster? SS: Take me away, Louis. GK: Where? LeSueur? SS: Las Vegas. GK: I'm Lutheran. SS: I'm pagan. Somehow, we'll make it work. (MUSIC UP) TR: Les Sylphides Lace Ballet Skirts has brought you….. © Garrison Keillor 2003 |
