but last night I dreamt that I was at a conference (what was it about? God knows) and I spent the entire weekend talking with Bill Clinton.
What Bill Clinton Said
Although I have
mixed feelings
about The Politics
of Bill Clinton
(I don’t like them.
Where’s the MIX?)
it’s hard to resist
a good talker and when
I went to a conference
about Something who knows
what I sat next to
Bill and there we were
he and I talking
obsessively for
the conference duration.
What did you
want when you were
young I asked
and what do you
want now? He
gave anecdotal
answers in the
manner of
When I Was a Boy
long long stories
about aspirations.
Now he said,
he wants to make
the world better.
How I asked
wishing I could
say more and Bill
who seemed to be
the most charming
person on earth or one of
them spent the next
few days explaining
his life to me.
