"out the window."

 

"Remember when I did this?"

I said and climbed out the window

"I'm doing it again."

 

Everybody laughed

"He's doing it again."

 

I was standing

on the aluminum ledge

that was actually a camera store sign

outside

our friend's apartment window

on a beautiful September night

 

"Hello!"

I called to a couple walking down Broadway

the man was black

and the woman was white

they were both very fat

and they waved

jollily

 

"Hello!"

I said to the wobbly old drunk guy

in the plaid shirt

"Hello," I called again and waved

and the olden wobbly drunken guy looked up and turned away and kept on walking

he knew I wasn't really there

 

"Hello!"

I waved to the Italian couple

and they looked up and the guy called back

"John MacEnroe, hey it's John MacEnroe"

and kept on walking

 

"Hello!"

I called to a black guy

slinking along the brick wall

in a long brown leather jacket

"Hello,"

I said again

 

and for a while there wasn't anybody to say hello to

then I heard a woman shouting

"Roy! Roy he took your money!"

a black woman came running

down the street in a tight white dress

with her breasts falling out

screaming and pointing

and the guy in the leather jacket

came running from the other direction

with a big friend

and a tall black guy with a beard and a hat

came out from the other direction

saying,

"You're lying bitch, I didn't take nuthin'."

 

Pretty soon people were yellin'

and hittin'

and the cops came

including two squad cars

and a paddy wagon

and an undercover vehical

but no one wanted to press charges

so the cops left

and they yelled and hit a little more

and then everybody left

and I climbed in the window

 

when we got home

I walked around with my pee stained boxer shorts

pulled up to my chest

and pretended I was retrded

and my girlfriend said

"you're insane."

and that makes me happy
