It's a sad tale It's true It happened to me Don't tell anyone, please.
Darcy was a fifteen year old runaway 1969 Came to San Francisco that was the place.
The most beautiful girl I had ever seen but then I was only 19.
A different story a different tale Hugh Hefner had given her a flirting stare. Just to let you know how beautiful she might have been.
I lived on Homer Lane Darcy and I, of course lovers became. She moved right on in.
As young lovers often do 3 months is 3 years and Darcy flew off to Wycoff to see her crazy parents he had built a wall blown down by the wind she dressed like Anthony Quinn.
As young lovers often do three weeks later I followed her just to see what we were going to do.
The next thing I knew we were living on 12th Street across from the New School. Jimi Hendrix down the block screaming guitar jamming from his fourth floor apartment we'd all stop and listen.
I was going to Gerdy's Folk City singing my version of my own written Bob Dylan songs.
Darcy was putting Huey Newton posters on our rent controlled apartment front door. Somebody kept ripping them off She added more layers.
Needless to say we were evicted the next day as young lovers often are.
It was summer Woodstock came Darcy bought us tickets to get us in the game.
I was working as a copywriter writing movie ads Every father's daughter is a ****** that wasn't one of mine. My claim to fame for a short time running trending you might say "Up Madison Avenue" a girl dancing on the top of a fist.
Darcy had an ill fated voyage to France to smuggle hash. I almost got us busted at the airport Darcy's friend who bought the plane ticket hadn't told her about the ****** he took the hash and was coming back. We never saw him again.
1969
As young lovers often do
We met at 5pm at the Port Authority on a Friday summer night
There were a lot of people jammed together knocked around really tight pivot point it wasn't all right claustrophobic bound
You know the drill
Heart pounding hands tingling sweating hyperventilating to.
What would you have said what do you think you would do?
"I gotta get out a here. Let's go to the movies instead. "
She was very kind went and saw Putney Swope Up Madison Avenue. The city was empty. I thought I heard a pin drop in that warm summer night in New York City.
The very next morning Darcy was gone Woodstock bound. I was watching bowling and thinking something profound.
