THE LUCK OF THE IRISH, PADDY (WHO RAN THE BACK ELEVATOR AT WORK IN THE GARMENT CENTER) SAID
IN 1960, FEBRUARY, I LANDED IN NYC, THE FIRST TIME I EVER SAW SO MUCH SNOW
ABOUT MARCH 1965 I GOT A LETTER FROM MY SENATOR, ROBERT KENNEDY, CONGRATULATING ME FOR TURNING A BRAND NEW CITIZEN OF THE USA
TYPED, BUT SIGNED WITH A BLUE INKED FOUNTAIN PEN
MALCOLM X WAS SHOT IN HARLEM A MONTH BEFORE, I WAS IN SCHOOL
A JUNIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL (ALMOST A SENIOR!) I LIVED CLOSE TO SHEA STADIUM IN QUEENS
MISSED THE CONCERT, BUT HEARD THE SCREAMING
LATER, IN NOVEMBER, I REMEMBER JUST GETTING OFF THE SUBWAY WHEN THE BLACKOUT HAPPENED
I WORKED AFTER SCHOOL IN MANHATTAN (BOTH SCHOOL AND WORK!) THEN I'D GO HANG OUT
WITH SOME FRIENDS ON 47TH STREET, OR GO TO THE VILLAGE
MY NEIGHBORS IN QUEENS WERE CUBANS, THE FIRST JUNKIES I EVER MET
A LOT HAPPENED IN 1965, I REMEMBER MY SUITS WERE ALL SHARKSKIN
