excerpt from a 1976 letter to Tom Meyer

SCENES FROM THE BABY PICNIC

        The inevitable outcome of marriage is babies!
        Lewis Warsh (1969)

little Anne Byrd pissing on the Metcalfs' livingroom rug & later attacking Regan Bertolette

Paul pitching a softball to Clark Coolidge who slams it past Lewis Warsh

Peter Bertolette -- lost in a pair of Paul's trunks -- swimming in the pond across the road

Sheila Granda outremembering me by naming what Paul & Nancy & I had just finished for lunch that time we first met

Bernadette Mayer breastfeeding Marie

Cecily Coolidge wondering out loud why I'm teasing her & David [Meredith] later telling her two men at the party had fallen in love with her
