In
the
morning
Dee
Dee
drove
me
to
the
Sunset
Strip
for
breakfast
.
The
Mercedes
was
black
and
shone
in
the
sun
.
We
drove
past
the
billboards
and
the
nightclubs
and
the
fancy
restaurants
.
I
slouched
low
in
my
seat
,
coughing
over
my
cigarette
.
I
thought
,
well
,
things
have
been
worse
.
A
scene
or
two
flashed
through
my
head
.
One
winter
in
Atlanta
I
was
freezing
,
it
was
midnight
,
I
had
no
money
,
no
place
to
sleep
,
and
I
walked
up
the
steps
of
a
church
hoping
to
get
inside
and
get
warm
.
The
church
door
was
locked
.
Another
time
in
El
Paso
,
sleeping
on
a
park
bench
,
I
was
awakened
in
the
morning
by
some
cop
smacking
the
soles
of
my
shoes
with
his
club
.
Still
,
I
kept
thinking
about
Lydia
.
The
good
parts
of
our
relationship
felt
like
a
rat
walking
around
and
gnawing
at
the
inside
of
my
stomach
.

Dee
Dee
parked
outside
a
fancy
eating
place
.
There
was
a
sun
patio
with
chairs
and
tables
where
people
sat
eating
,
talking
,
and
drinking
coffee
.
We
passed
a
black
man
in
boots
,
jeans
,
and
with
a
heavy
silver
chain
coiled
around
his
neck
.
His
motorcycle
helmet
,
goggles
and
gloves
were
on
the
table
.
He
was
with
a
thin
blond
girl
in
a
peppermint
jumpsuit
who
sat
sucking
on
her
little
ringer
.
The
place
was
crowded
.
Everybody
looked
young
,
scrubbed
,
bland
.
Nobody
stared
at
us
.
Everybody
was
talking
quietly
.

We
went
inside
and
a
pale
slim
boy
with
tiny
buttocks
,
tight
silver
pants
,
an
8
-
inch
studded
belt
and
shiny
gold
blouse
seated
us
.
His
ears
were
pierced
and
he
wore
tiny
blue
earrings
.
His
pencil
-
thin
mustache
looked
purple
.
