OI...big letters...DELETE NOW....as Burroughs has it a note to the
WISE GUY...the EX is squiring Hillary today..at the NY Hospital the smug well
paid addministrator called the Dealers ...Vultures...the one good book got
grabbed outof someone's hand..wish I'd been the grabber...grabbee be
damned slow...The sale was totally mismanaged like many CHARITY events..so every
one got nervous and started grabbing..the dealers were actually quite
polite and patient for the junk to get out..but when the General Public
started wading it before the bell..everyone was off to the races..should
have mentioned to MS ADDMINSTRATOR..that the guy walking into her FACTORY
with the BIG C gets taken for his life savings..what's a little grabbing to
the big Grabbings of Dr. Capitalism...Which leads me to thru a loophold inspace to Mr. X...For Many
Years....Many Years Ago..before we were all born...My best customer was a
Drug Dealer..He always pd in cash...tho the bank sometimes thot the 20's
looked funny...and he bought lots...lotsTimes before the Opera...He had box 1 at the Met...I would be left in
some late model rented tank with all cockpit lited up gizmos listening to
Classical Music...while he made the Drop...I always hoped he was just
selling Jamaican Gold and not Shit..but never bothered to ask...We'd always arrive at the box somewhere in the middle of the 2nd
Act..seemed like a perfectly good waste of a few 100's...but I guess from
some perspecive when you're burning money...waste is the point.....Dinner
at some fancy Dive at 2;30 just as the Staff wants to go home...the Cafe
Des Artistes...where the Gutaemalan bus boy is P....ing in the stew..X always kept everyone waiting...so for a few hours I was Lord of this
Manor while he was in the Back Rooms showering? talking? dawdling? wasting
time?,,,I'd watch super TV,,,or Smoke a Joint..(In my Smoke a Joint
Days)....Or do Tai-Chi or Sleep or Look at his Books...It occurred to me many years later that this Loft Pad was hot wired for
Cameras ....he was just that kind of guy...and he was looking at me Looking
at the Books I had sold him...For a not so Honest Guy...I was never tempted
to take one...Most of the books had passed thru me and I was done with
them..even the Signed Ltd Hemingway..tho the early Dubois and the Inscribed
by both Sweet Fly Paper..melted in my hand..So I guess we're all honest to a point...except for the Big Deleters..who
are honest all the time...what was it that was theft...property or
time...or neither of the above..just the moon and stars and another
sleepless 5;07 in the morning nite...Dr. N.
