From "Steps" by Frank O'Hara
"oh god it's wonderful
to get out of bed
and drink too much coffee
and smoke too many cigarettes
and love you so much"
This is from a poem by Frank O'Hara (of "Meditations In An Emergency" fame) about New York City. It seems to fit our Mad Men, doesn't it, just a little bit?











Yes, z, it certainly does fit our bunch of drinkers, smokers and carousers....but....FO's poem would have been perfect if he'd have figured out a way to fit in a line about drinking booze, too...
what I can't figure out is how they stayed out of the bathroom for more than a half hour at a time!!!
Yeah, SCfan, I thought the same about the booze....unless the"love you so much" line is referring to the booze!!
...well, let's face it....they all do love it so (their hooch)!
Also, the "love you so much" line could easily apply to DD and all his women (at least 4 -- that we know of anyway -- Betty, Midge, Rachel, Joy, Bobbie and that gossiping chick (Don Draper "treatment") Bobbie referred to...Lord knows how many others there have been!)
Now, who did I leave out?? ha...
can't count....5 not 4!
still can't count....6 not 5.....
help....
.....You forgot about that "Sarah Tierney" person from Random House......
.....Although it was never established if she actually got the "full Don Draper treatment," or was just repeating third-hand lore. DD's face, on hearing that, didn't exhibit anything like recognition, but maybe that's just a "big numbers" thing!
.....Sorry SCfan for the redundancy..... Apparently I can't read this morning!!
Let's make it 7. How about Anna Draper?
...don't worry, Dry...it's obvious I couldn't count either! (at least you remembered her name!) ha
Suzette...I also suspect Anna was one of his conquests....I mean....how could she resist? and why would she?
And who says DD/DW was even the one making the first pass?
hee!
I still think that kid playing "The Mountain King" during his piano lesson (when DD/DW showed up at Anna's doorstep) might end up being their son.
Interesting possibility about the kid, SCfan. Never occurred to me, but anything is possible!
...yes, my theory there is no doubt pretty far fetched, but maybe when he left Anna's he was going to his grandma's house (her mom) and that kept DD/DW from catching on or even suspecting anything.
Then again, she probably would have told Don about the boy to get $$ for his support, but, he probably was sending her LOTS already, so maybe she didn't push it...in fact, it wouldn't be surprising if Don had a few little ones other than Sally and Bobby scattered about here and there, since he does so enjoy planting his seeds in assorted gardens.... !!!
Wanting to find something about Hailey Young I have found this publication with this poem... Very beautiful worlds I think and they remember me my life... They a really deep and not simple.
