Another Party

Suddenly everybody is leaving.
There's another party. Probably
booze at this one. I'm standing
alone by the punch bowl, as a
young man comes up to me, his
arms outstretched almost in
helplessness. "I don't know who we
should thank for all this." Neither
do I, but I point to Clay Spencer
saying "Him." The young man
turns and approaches Spencer. "I
don't know who we should thank
for all this."

After a performance like theirs,
we should be thanking them.
