A lot of people having a good time, that’s what I want. You’ll have to call my daughter. I had a dream last night, she lectured me about smoking. She hit me with a coat hanger.
[...]
She stands, holds up her arm like the Statue of Liberty.
Holding out the light bulb. I stood like this for hours.
The effort it takes to keep her arm up is clear, but she continues, wheezing.
For months, everywhere I went, people had this picture of me on their walls.

Lucy Kirkwood. Chimerica. NHB (electronic edition. p.93.
