it was awkwardbut he liked
awkward as he listened to Tools Undertow
he reran parts of the film Marty on the black oily surface of his bowl of
coffee Man, that Mickey Spillane, he sure can write two elderly widows talk in a cloistered dull
lit livingroom about how a daughter-in-law can turn their sons love away from them they talk about a college girl She’s
just one step from the street they talk about a girl who works outside the home
before a typewriter She’s just one step from the street Marty mid30s and Clara late20s walk downtown
talking after meeting at a dance club across
the street in a parked car Ralph sitting behind the steering wheel hails Marty Marty politely excuses himself
to Clara What’s up Ralph? he looks into the backseat at a couple seated there and says Hiya, Leo Ralph interrupts That’s
Louise. she sits to Leos left Hello, Louise. Hawaryah, Maty? she replies Ralph interrupts curtly Come with us, Marty. then
lowering his voice so Louise cant hear It’s
money in the bank, Marty, I’m telling you, money in the bank. Nah,
I’m already with a girl. Brush her off. I can’t, she was brushed off earlier tonight.
Marty, this is money in
the bank, brush her off, brush her
off. Nah. I can’t. I gotta go.
Paddy Chafesky wrote Martywhich likely to most people today probably means shit
it starred Ernest Borginine who? who won the
Academy Award as Best Actor for the film in ‘56
Marty also won Best Movie Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay
six short years later in the Fall
of ’62 Borginine plays McHale in McHale's
Navy on television its about a PT boat skipper and his crew in the Japanese Pacific
as a kid he supposed ya hafta had
won the war to make a sitcom of it one
of the perks of being a victorious nation
then again in
’65 Hogan's Heroes soldiers held in Stalag 13 a Nazi P.O.W. (prisoner of war) camp Hogan is played by Bob Crane
who 13 years later was bludgeoned to death in Scotsdale Arizona while touring
with a dinner theatre production of Beginner’s Luck
an unsolved murder
maybe Crane was held accountable
and atoned for his sacrilege
maybe some people or someone didnt
think the television show was funny
not funny
like at the commencement of Drumpfs speech to the
United Nations yesterday touting his
Administrations unparalleled American achievements
there was laughter
then
silence
