Famous People and Their Friends
Part 5
Famous people and their friends
get to go to places where you
can only imagine what they are doing.
I was at a party two nights ago*
and a famous person was there.
When he left five or six people left
with him.
There was a great deal of excitement
at their departure as there always is.
The room was filled with the breathing
of searchlights and chocolate ice cream
cones and private jet airplanes.
Everybody wanted to go with them
to mysterious places like film studio
palaces in Atlantis and dance halls
on the dark side of undiscovered moons
where everything happens and you are
a very important part of it
and you are there.
