What's Leftover?



"So, you wanna be an actor, eh?"Photo: Crybaby and Thomas Aquinas Cahill, "doing homework" for rehearsal scene from Ferris Wheel on the Wonder Wheel at Coney Island, opening day, 2010.

What's leftover from early spring? Memories of a voice screaming, "Oh no, are we going round again", paper cup from Nathans, recipe for having fun at Joe Rosen's February birthday babies party (have your friends and give'em rice and red beans, beans, beans)...

What's leftover from May Day, 2010? Snow stains on red bricks outside the studio, ashes in the wood stove, lingering smell of Miss Pearl after the rain, notes from "Art Charlie" ("...say do you think that Dirty Sally is a Buddha?"), music as the breeze rattles the bamboo chimes hanging from the roof, AND indigestion from devouring a 10" pizza- by myself!

What's leftover from a minute ago? Hail on the skylight, cold tea in a cup, chill in the air, voicemail, "Can you come out and play..."

What's leftover? Me. You. Now.
