went to a party at Mark’s.
Mark was wearing a baby blue suit and his yarmulke.
His hands were sticky with Jagermeister.
I was in the kitchen with Merit,
Took some Jello Shots and drank a beer,
To see what a normal party was like.
I could feel the alcohol
Pulsing thick emotion through my brain.
I took 2 shots of Goldschlager,
Just to stay high.
On the Verandah,
Surrounded by glass
Overlooking the backyards of St Urbain.
Mark’s guitar was plugged in
And I played simple hip-hop beats on the tam-tams
With the few kids that could play.
Some were pretty good.
Rory was the most creative
He played slide guitar with a Corona bottle.
Anyways. That’s it. A little tipsy as I walked home. The girls on St Laurent look ready for Sex. The girls at the party were wearing short skirts and boots. Flexing thigh in the McGill Arts way. I don’t want none of it. Or I do, except, nevermind.
The cars on St Laurent are honking
Late into the night
At least you didn’t have any party lovin roommates to deal with. When I was in college I had some bad roommates and some good ones the bad ones are far more fun to talk about tho…. My first roommate had no job,was antisocial, had bad hygiene, and smelled mad funky 24/7, a real bamma but since he was antisocial I only noticed this on the rare occasions he actually came out of his room. He would take on any fucking job that didn’t require good hygiene or social skills. Highlights include stankin so bad you would think there’s a dead body in his room, slammin the front door at two in the AM, and passin out naked in the bathroom. He DID keep common areas clean, since he was almost never in them.
My second roommate was bummy,surly, and had a lot of gold teeth. Gold teeth were due to the fact that he was bummy and surly and I’m sure he’ll bust grapes and lose more teeth in the future. He liked to be unemployed from Jan.-March, but this didn’t really harm his cash flow cause he also liked to sell chronic. Other highlights were late night confrontations with his blitzed jackass friends, missin food, late rent payments,and raiding my wine coolers for his friends. He kept his room clean for his friends and customers, but made a mess of the common areas.
Roommate three was wack he liked to take long walks on the beach. Unfortunately he liked to creep around with his friend’s wife and follow it up with late night freebasing sessions. He was friendly, and had a toothless grin. Slightly out of touch from years of hella drug use, but more considerate than my other two roommates. Liked to talk endlessly, but only when I was in the middle of something. Also liked to clean, but would talk about how he cleaned.
