My mother calls me Lou.
My friends call me Pecky. Or sometimes Nimsey.
My 7th grade English teacher calls me brazen.
My coworkers call me la cotorrita. Or perhaps bizcocho. Or la guera.
My boss calls me the thoroughbred.

Welcome to what I'm thinking.

“Having a coke with you,

is even more fun than going to San Sebastian, Irún, Hendaye, Biarritz, Bayonne 

or being sick to my stomach on the Travesera de Gracia in Barcelona” 

Frank O’ Hara reading his poem ‘Having a coke with you’. Recorded in New York in 1966.

“And the fact that you move so beautifully more or less takes care of futurism.”
