I make pictures. In this piece, I wanted the fire escape to go up like his dick did that summer in Memphis. You did me wrong, daddy. We had arrived on Beale Street on our bikes and summer simmered. Our derelict hotel was bitchin' and the blues. Boilin' like a watchman's rattle. It was hot and we dragged the mattress out to the fire escape and you-go-girl whores burning up the sidewalk down below. Tequila shots and limes in a paper bag. You come up and have a drink with us.

I make pictures. In this piece, I wanted the fire escape to go up like his dick did that summer in Memphis. You did me wrong, daddy. We had arrived on Beale Street on our bikes and summer simmered. Our derelict hotel was bitchin' and the blues. Boilin' like a watchman's rattle. It was hot and we dragged the mattress out to the fire escape and you-go-girl whores burning up the sidewalk down below. Tequila shots and limes in a paper bag. You come up and have a drink with us. And so they did and Memphis simmered like a swamp and your steam rose like fog and no fire escape could lend reprieve to no blaze burning down below. The taste of hookers on you like butterscotch. My bike was speakin' to me and it had to end, daddy. I left you and your underpants. Your skidmarks and your hot tequila. Limes. That paper bag had a hole in it. The thrill is gone. I returned to women and they big arms and you never did hold me. You never even tried and I needed you to try. Just to try. The thrill is gone. The thrill is gone away. You know you done me wrong, daddy. And you'll be sorry someday. I have washed you down. Washed you away. Tequila. Limes in a paper bag. You come to Memphis but I cannot stay.
