Show Me the Place, 58


“Show me the place.”
Duke Senior in As You Like It (2.1)

58: Montgomery, Alabama; June 9, 2003

We saw the place where Zelda met
F. Scott Fitzgerald—at a dance.
(I doubt they danced a minuet!)
Scott figured that he had no chance.

But chance he had—as we all know.
Their lives did not work out too well—
But for a while? All fast—no slow.
And then it sank to living hell.
