Sorry Charlies, 11:30pm Saturday.


Sorry Charlies, 11:30pm Saturday. transcribed from notebook.

I am going to try to explain this to you.

There is a stuffed swordfish over the call window and miniature cereal boxes sitting atop the pie case. The tables in the restaurant side are classic greasy spoon booths, but 2 tables away you are in the piano bar.
An ancient man plays a baby grand like water flowing over rocks. A man in his sixties is singing opera in Italian. It's open mic. 2 tables over and the lights go dim, but on our side, the booth and restaurant side, it's diner bright.
There is a feeling like this is one of those dreams that starts out great and threatens to turn bad but never quite does. It just continues being a kind of correct only the dream can fabricate.
Now there's a girl singing a beautiful and jaunty version of That's Amore, and the old man pours out a life of experience over the keys.

I'm overwhelmed. I want to preserve this thing. "When I have a brand new hairdo..." I want a piece of my DNA to be left on a fragment of time. I want to be able to come back to this emotion, to this light, to that old man playing the piano and the girl in the corner smoking cigarettes and the guy with the date who's way way too young for him and they both know it and the waitress who's older than my mom and the juice you can only get out of the bar spicket. I want to come back to meticulously peeling this lable and tugging at my socks and borrowing this jacket that smells like my friend who has gone to find his pen. I want to grab hold of this moment and kiss it with my tounge. "Who enjoys being a guy, loving a giiiiiiirrrrrllllll like meeeeeee..."

On the wall, there are charcoal pictures of a fish wearing a sailor hat crying behind a rock where a mermaid brushes her hair.
