GO-GO BOOTS
03/28/03

I saw a woman at the AIRPORT
in a WHEELCHAIR
and she was wearing GO-GO BOOTS.
These white go-go boots
that looked like they meant BUSINESS.
And she looked cooler than cool.
She was iced coffee.
She wasn't even WAITING for someone,
she was GOING somewhere,
she was LEADING
Probably a junket to VEGAS.
A Vegas fun-filled,
sun-filled
surf and turf
'all-you-can-eat'
'all-you-can-drink'
'all-you-can-think'
weekend.
White go-go boots.
Oh yeah...and she was about sixty.
I saw her and I thought to myself,
The world is okay...
