It was now mid-August which meant that he had been separated from Marsha for more than two months. Two months, and all he had to show were three dog-eared letters and two very expensive long-distance phone calls. True, when school had ended and she'd returned to Wisconsin and he to Locust, Pennsylvania she had sworn to maintain a certain fidelity. She would date occasionally, but merely as amusement. She would remain faithful. But lately Waldo had begun to worry. He had trouble sleeping at night and when he did, he had horrible dreams. He lay awake at night, tossing and turning underneath his printed quilt protector, tears welling in his eyes, As he pictured Marsha, her sworn vows overcome by liquor and the smooth soothings of some Neanderthal, Finally submitting to the final caresses of sexual oblivion. It was more than the human mind could bear. Visions of Marsha's faithlessness haunted him. Daytime fantasies of sexual abandon permeated his thoughts. And the thing was, they wouldn't understand who she really was. He, Waldo, alone, understood this. He had intuitively grasped every nook and cranny of her psyche. He had made her smile, and she needed him, and he wasn't there. (Awww.) The idea came to him on the Thursday before the Mummers Parade was scheduled to appear. He had just finished mowing and edging the Edelsons lawn for a dollar-fifty And had checked the mailbox to see if there was at least a word from Marsha. There was nothing more than a circular form the Amalgamated Aluminum Company of America inquiring into his awning needs. At least they cared enough to write. It was a New York company. You could go anywhere in the mails. Then it struck him: he didn't have enough money to go to Wisconsin Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Stephanie Says, European Son, Venus in Furs, Ride Into The Sun, What Goes On, Temptation Inside Your Heart, Coney Island Steeplechase, Im Gonna Move Right In, Cool It Down, Head Held High, I Found A Reason, Sad Song, Train Round The Bend, Who Loves The Sun, Coyote, Guess Im Falling in Love, Hey Mr. Rain, Velvet Nursery Rhyme, Were Gonna Have a Real Good Time Together, Im Waiting For My Man, Brain Damage, Accident Sex, All Cried Out, Ambulance Chaser, Cardboard Vs Fire, Caught You Like A Cold, Cinders, Forgetiquette, Hangman (my anathema), In Mourning For The Stillborn, Lipstick Tourniquets, Long Goodbye, Lucid Languid, Maud Dib, Opiate Summer, P.S.
