the word Passé fell out of fashion
what could I do? it was a party on 120th Street and Amsterdam Avenue
the grad students were feeling good about themselves because they could collectively remember who was currently hip
it had taken them four years to get this far
but the drinks had run out by 10pm
and everyone’s trying too hard to be jocular
on the top of NY city
Presley is dancing with Amy
(to Helen Reddy)
then Alaskan Susan carries me home but her roommate gets in early and I have to walk 89 blocks back to the KY Hotel on 31st Street where
the word Sleep
overcomes me
