so have you seen this new media crap
about the up-coming tell all book
thats gonna let the world know that caroline bessette was a coke snorting bitch
and john john was a poor little kennedy victim
you know what
i wish this book would shut up
yeah yeah i know the world loves dirt on royalty
and the kennedys are america's royal family
but shit
john junior and carolyn died in the prime of their lives
tragically
and they loved each other enough to get married
so yeah
maybe in her jet set world
carolyn tooted the white stuff
and maybe not!
big woop, we've all partied haven't we?!
let her rest in peace
there are so many terrible things happening in the world today
why focus on this?
on the other hand
the fact that this is getting tons of press
may mean for oh about two seconds the news
just had nothing to talk about
you know what news folks
talk about aids in africa!
talk about the lousy economy forcing people out fo their homes!
talk about the destroyed families of terrorism!
talk about the last
THE LAST
group of minorities to have lesser rights in this county!
gay americans
and how we can go about removing the obstacles so
that gay americans and straight americans will have the same rights
that african americans and white americans and jewish americans
and latin americans and asian americans and new jersey americans have
the same rights
hello we are all people right?
leave JFK's only son alone and leave carolyn alone
it really could not have been easy for her to marry into that family
and walk in jackie o's footsteps
now shes dead
she didnt live long
so butt out
i met her once
in the west village
just shortly before she died
she was sitting on the stoop of a pre-war building on hmm bank street i think it was
just yacking it up with one of her girlfriends, giggling and hanging on the stoop
like any upwardly mobile neighborhood babe of the increasingly expensive old hood
i walked by her and smiled not knowing who she was
just enjoying her natural beauty and openness
she smiled back genuinely it seemed and kept on giggling
i only realized who she was a few blocks away
and said to myself
i think she's okay
john john id seen a few times
rollerblading around
biking with his knapsack on his back
sometimes his pants rolled up
he was a NYC mascot
we all loved that he just bladed and biked all over the city
not limo-ed
for whatever what in his head
what we saw
was a real guy
i dont give a rat's ass
if they were fighting in the end
if she was partying
if he was less than perfect
just let them be
why piss on them
it reminds me of the princess diana bashers
why do it
she was good
she was decent
and she was very very human
filled with human errors
and a young woman's passions
so what
leave her be
like i said
there are so many things to obsess about
the demise of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" strikes me as more important
im gonna keep on thinking of carolyn as that giggling stoop girl with the pretty smile
if you don't mind
bugger off
