POET: "What's you name, traveller?" WOMAN: "Judith X" POET: "What's the X?" WOMAN: "X-Mcguire. I'm divorced." POET: "Alone?" WOMAN: "Alone" POET: "Why?" WOMAN "Because the touch of human skin makes me sick!"

Resentful after an ugly divorce from her unfaithful husband, Judith McGuire moves to Los Angeles.
