Essay Up Late With Old Friends

Cover of Planet of the Blind....man and dog....

How beautiful to see we’re still funny. Five people and no one is selling anything. One of us who has lost a lot of weight proudly lifts up his shirt and I say if he keeps this up, a piano will fall on him. The dog walks in with her dish clutched in her teeth. A five point buck looks in the window. Any moment now, Dr. Doolittle will drop by for coffee. See the laughing animals. Save the human textbook for tomorrow.
