Part I: The
Pitch
We like to be
authorities on getting ‘round town
Looking good,
going down
To the market
and filling our skirts with bread and thick aromatic cheese
How to be
hungry is about how well you get fed
We're in the
business of how to get led
Meet me at the
Debut café for a free consultation
There the
Castle is ever looming dark and fallen down
It's okay, kay?
I got you
covered
With this
first guarantee:
The human
heart and mind are hungry
For movement
and noise, always
In this city
that is smaller than your head
Getting fatter
but not getting fed
All directions
lead down to the market
Where we all
buy and sell
For passion or
for profit
I am the
Professional. I wear the suit
Of this
Business of Dance and Music
We are not in
the business of panhandling for scraps
On
street-corners from the Stranger getting stranger
We make with
what we get
And the gettin’
is good
When you’re in
the business of how to get got
Because the
journey is long to get beyond
That Castle
In the
distance
And, damn,
We look good,
going down
To the market
And filling
our skirts with bread and thick aromatic cheese
CHEESE!
