...You're there and I'm here. I think I got that line from "Sid and Nancy" but it's not very original. It's always there. The restless yearning the gypsy burning the unseen smoke signals the polluted wistful WhY the HeLL nOt?!@#$% I remember watching the train go by...the multi-colored but mostly red (Bloods) and blue (The Crips) gangsta tags on rust. And the palm trees reaching for God and the shirtless freak in West Hollywood saying,"beautiful!" and the Jewish graveyard with the sprinklers making mini rainbows in the sweltering early September heat and the Starbursts and Nacho Doritoes courtesy of the waiter in Beverly Hills. I will never be a junkie or an actress or a producer. I will never chit chat with Jay Leno or David Letterman. So I'm left with California nightmares and a dirty bathroom illuminated with a dollar store candle that stinks and *Alice's Adventures in Wonderland* for at least the HUNDREDTH time and Benadryl spaciness and the "Charlie's Angels" soundtrack on the stereo. |
