KARI ANN
In eyeliner and lipstick, I'm not the man I thought you'd pick for a reckless night with you. But I'll stain kisses on you now if you will just allow me maybe just an hour or two, Kari Ann.
You must have noticed, Kari Ann: I'm not a very tough young man, but I think tonight I can fake it. I will soon move away, but we have tonight anyway if we decide to take it, Kari Ann.
You interview me and I'll interview you like we're already famous, like the famous people do. Maybe we're just nobodies in this nobody town, but if I am down here with you then what's wrong with being down?
Tomorrow I cut my hair and then I pay the airplane fare and the next day it's Hollywood. If you would agree to stay, we have tonight anyway; If we want it we could, Kari Ann.

THIS IS HOLLYWOOD
Wade has been using, he is skeleton thin, with his thick caveman features and a maniac grin. He searches the gutters for butts of cigarettes. He is waiting for his dealer who ain't shown up yet. Wade has a trick: He buys up cheap wine, then bumps into tourists on Hollywood and vine. He drops a bottle and demands that they pay. Wade says he makes eighty dollars a day. This is Hollywood.
Alfonse is an extra in low budget shoots. He greases his hair back and wears thrift shop suits. He lives in his office right off Wilcox; It's ninety dollars a week for a 100 foot box. He washes in the bathroom and sleeps on the floor and he used to be broke but not anymore. He made 100 on Tuesday to get shot in the head because he says extras are just worth more dead. This is Hollywood.
Jamie is surly and scowls nonstop. He screamed at a bag boy for watching him shop -- but he dresses in vinyl and has ratted black hair, cuts his arms with razors, so it's hard not to stare. He's been leaving needles in his apartment bathroom and he's going to be thrown out and it will happen soon. His landlord is coming with a cop at his side to watch out for Jamie who has threatened suicide. This is Hollywood.
These are the kids; This is the trash. They rocket to the West coast. Here's where they crash. A dirty strip of city. A country that doesn't care. If you're going to crash anyway, you might as well crash there. This is Hollywood.

SANTA MONICA
The lads they stand on the corner of highland, in tight white shorts wit their cocks in their hand. They wait for the cars to give them a ride and they do dirty things to the drivers inside. You're on the wrong side of the law on Santa Monica.
There's nasty little men on Tamarind with pockets full of cash so the boys lean in to the windows of Porshes and the doors of Saabs, to take rides to hotels or for backseat handjobs. You're on the wrong side of the law on Santa Monica.
It's a fine night for a stroll between Wilcox and Cole. There's a cop back on Las Palmas and he's a fucking asshole. He'll bust you if you loiter and he'll beat you if you sass, but when he's not on duty he pays to take it up the ass. You're on the wrong side of the law on Santa Monica.
The lads they stand on the corner of highland, in tight white shorts with their cocks in their hand. It's not much of a living but there's not much else to do; Just walk and smoke and talk and walk and screw and screw. You're on the wrong side of the law on Santa Monica.

THE MOVIEGOER
Monday night on Fairfax for a silent retrospective. King Vidor could paint with light but Pabst was introspective. Tuesday night it's Godard, 704 goes to the Nuart. Anna Karina dances now in Bande a part. Oh, where do you go when you're the moviegoer? Oh, where do you go tonight? Oh, the cineplex show near Rosewood and Gower. Oh a second run film is all right.
Cinerama Dome on Wednesday to see last weekend's big hit; The reviews for this have not been kind but you find you kind of like it.

Oh, the cineplex show near Rosewood and Gower. Oh a second run film is all right.
Bukowski filmed by Schroeder, this Friday at UCLA; At 240 minutes the movie will take the whole day. On Saturday at the Egyptian, at midnight for those who stay late, are Starlet and The Space Thing, She-Freak and Nature's Playmates. Oh, where do you go when you're the moviegoer? Oh, where do you go tonight? Oh, the cineplex show near Rosewood and Gower. Oh a second run film is all right.

Andrew was just seventeen when he went into the teen canteen. He only lasted seven days: he tested for AIDS and went away. He was part of the Shelter Gang.
Luis ran away from home when his father caught him with Jerome; He threatened them with a baseball bat, so Luis left and that was that. He was part of the Shelter Gang.

There was Benny and Juan Ortegas, they just packed up and moved to Vegas, and Sam and Rom and Jim and Jules could not obey the shelter rules, and Al and Phil and Jake and Kay were all kicked out on their seventh day, and what Became of Anton and Sean? They were there one day and then were gone. They were part of the Shelter Gang.
Joe dressed up in skirt and blouse when he left the citrus house and liked to kiss straight men in bars, which accounts for Joe's many scars. Michael would not stay in bed, but crept into Robert's instead. They were discreet, but as predicted, both we caught and evicted. They were part of the Shelter Gang.

TRACEY KNOWS HOW TO LIE
Here's what I know about Tracey: She knows how to lie. There isn't a thing that Tracey tells you that she won't later deny. Nothing she says is ever sincere but what Tracey says is what I want to hear. Oh Tracey Oh Tracey -- She knows how to lie.
Well you might see Tracey on Melrose tonight, in the alley behind the Soap Plant, looking for a fight. She'll come back with a bloodied up nose but tell you that nothing occurred on Melrose. Oh Tracey Oh Tracey -- She knows how to lie.
Tracey tells stories of celebrities. She finds them on the coast and drives them where they please. If someone is famous she claims to have met them and whatever they ask Tracey always lets them. Oh Tracey Oh Tracey -- She knows how to lie.
Here's what I know about Tracey: She's never a bore. No matter how much she lies to me, I always want more. How can I not want her deceitful replies when this is a town that's built on great lies. Oh Tracey Oh Tracey -- She knows how to lie.

STEVEN'S SUNSET BOULEVARD BOOKSTORE
"You must read this," said Steven to Chris and handed him a book of Willeford. An unusual selection from the S&M section of Steven's Sunset Boulevard bookstore.
John Wille's on hand and Tom of Finland, placed on the shelves under art, and just now, in stock,is Sacher-Masoch; Try Venus in Furs as a start.
When arrested Steven showed a book on hankie codes to a vice officer under cover. It's been a decade at least since Steven was released -- the cop now likes to shop here with his lover.
Sometimes amused rockers in leathers and mock furs wander in from the Sunset Strip. They look at photos of nudes and sing All the Young Dudes and take turns playing with Steve's whip.
If you want Kathy Acker, Steven doesn't lack her and suggests Pussy, King of the Pirates. But if, perhaps, instead you want a book on skinheads, Steve suggests you look at Nick Knight's pics.
If you want Gautier, Steven has him today, and there's more if you want to look more. If you're curious you'll be delirious at Steven's Sunset Boulevard Bookstore.

WHEN JOHN DRINKS
When John drinks he falls to the floor. When John drinks he's not nice anymore. You know he limps; The reason is this: John fell off of a bridge when he was trying to piss, When John drinks.
When John drinks he goes to the phone. When John drinks he calls girls that he's known. John likes girls who are shallow and pretty and John can be cruel and full of self pity. When John drinks.
When John drinks he drinks more than he should. When John drinks he walks down Hollywood. When John sees girls he wants to buy them beer and puts his hands on them and sits much too near. When John drinks.
When John drinks he can be a bit rough. When John drinks you can't tell him enough. He mistreats girls and he likes to the shame them and he drinks more and John he then blames them. When John drinks.
The girls they all say he is kind when not drunk, but when he's drinking he's a sadistic punk. They say he's gentle and they say he is kind but when John drinks
He is out of his mind. When John drinks.
