November 27 1978
A lot colder down here tonight
than this time in 1978.
It was a warm night
overcast
rain threatening
but not yet arriving.
In those days
cigarettes were acceptble
even expected
in a hospital waiting room
in the Maternity Ward.
Watched my first ever episode
of Dallas there
just about the only one
I managed to sit through.
Early Cosplay
I was dressd like
the cover of Street Legal
at least I had
the pants and hair
never wore th little vest.
I went to the waiting room
rest room
had a left-handed smoke.
Outside it busted out raining
te nurse came in
and told me Clay
had just been born.
