PESTILENCE AND NEW WATER
What a wonderful time it was to live :
Love and marriage go together like a
horse and carriage. That was 1956 when
I heard that song in my mother's house.
On a 45. She'd get them and every song
was worse than the one before it; but I
listened nonetheless. Always trying to
find, I think, a key to this world.
-
There wasn't any. I wondered, in that
day of big, heavy cars and roadways
everywhere, why they even made the
song mention 'go together like a horse
and carriage. Chutzpah, or despair?
Pestilence, or new water?
