l'esprit de l'escalier, forsooth
Not One of the Cool Kids, I Guess
Teenage chum Mark
would always needle me
about Peter Gabriel's
"Sledgehammer": You're
the only person I know who
actually likes that song.
What I should have said
comes to me now, over
35 years later: "Yes,
you're right. If I keep
listening to the song,
my penis will shrivel
and fall off, and I'll grow
a vagina in its place.
Tell me, O manliest of men,
O coolest of the cool,
what music should I like?"
