Ahhh I just posted a response to the last one, so I will quote a Leonard Cohen poem of which this Chen Jen saying reminds me. He said it better than I can.
ReplyDelete"i would like to remind
the management
that the drinks are watered
and the hat-check girl
has syphilis
and the band is composed
of former ss monsters
However since it is
new year's eve
and i have lip cancer
i will place my
paper hat on my
concussion and dance"
