Chapter 11
They decided, rather Trash suggested and the others could
think of no reason to disagree, to go to ‘Sweetie’s’ restaurant
and ice-cream parlor. Linda, a woman who Trash had a not-so-
secret crush on and who returned the not-so-secret crush,
would be there waiting tables and they would try the object to
see if it would also control her thinking as it had Tommy’s.
Everyone knew they were sweet on one another, though they
each would change the subject if anyone tried to discuss it.
Trash once wrote her a love poem, which more confused her
than anything. It went like this:
Prescription: Love
I am
infected
with you.
Love
is the
only cure.
Please
write
me a
prescription.
