Ciao Manhattan

There it is sitting on the shelf of the cd film collection in Verdun library who knows why or how it ever got there
Its a cult classic cinematic look back from 1972 at Edie Sedgwick’s fifteen minute flash of fame just weeks away from her death by overdose
Its like watching the take-outs of a bad home movie I don’t want to remember
The indulgent antics of utterly flatulent people
How glib and trivial they are
How glib and trivial they were
Edie with disconnected eyes and silicone implanted breasts grotesque floundering about
Her voice dragging as she tells in a dead tone how happy and well adjusted she is
Smoking smoking smoking

It’s not meant to be an exposée of the 60’s ’Counter Culture’ but it is
