Crossover with the Lydia Davis short story "Lost Things"

LOST THINGS

They are lost, but also not lost but somewhere in the world. Most of them are small, though two are larger, one a coat and one a baby carriage full of boxes wrapped up in newspaper. Of the small things, one is a certain ring. It is lost from me and where I am, but it is also not gone. It is somewhere else, and it is there to someone else, it may be - possibly one of the white masks. But if not there to someone else, the ring is, still, not lost to itself, but there, only not where I am. If these white-masked buffoons don't find the ring soon I am seriously going to have a conniption fit.
