Inspector Maigret sometimes suspects
The existence of an Anti-Maigret
Whose task is to unsolve mysteries
When Maigret takes a holiday, Inspector
Anti-Maigret takes a break from unsolving,
Cuts his hair, drinks dark Belgian beer
(The same brand Maigret drinks),
Prays furiously to gods who, spitefully,
Insist on answering his prayers despite
His certain knowledge that they're imaginary.
