11,808. HE CAN'T PAINT CLOTHING WELL

HE CAN'T PAINT 
CLOTHING WELL
I've decided, you can't keep a gay
guy from coming out of the closet,
and can't chase his sister to prove 
that you're not. I think that's how
unwanted babies still happen. I've
got dice in my pockets; cat's eyes
for you.

'Well his ideas are OK, but he can't
paint clothing very well.' Sure, I heard
that, leaving Castelli, one afternoon.
Taken out of context, yes, it's bizarre.
I had no context, so I left it at that.

Frank O'Hara used to say, 'You can
never go back to the beginning, and
the beginning wasn't so good either.'
I only think he was referring to Art,
since at the time he was working
for MOMA.
