TO: VERA re: making preparations for "h"
AT: 23 EAST 4
Let me take these two lines to say
That i'm sorry i wasn't there yesterday
But look for me around two o'clock
'cause right now that's when
I'm planning to stop
This note is to allow my favorite trio
A chance to get set for old soulful mio
I'm doing this in case i
Don't stop to say thanks
Since i'll be in such a hurry
To get to the bank
I that explains why the hell i spent
So much time on this fine document

What i'm sitting here to sign
Means more to me than dotted lines
What i'm preparing to do right here
Will be the high or low point of my career
Thirty five years of piano playing
Thirty five years of poetry saying
Twenty seven years of record making
Forty seven years of rule breaking
A final test for the spirit's i follow
The rejection of four
Hundred thousand dollars
But since i ain't as rich as J Paul Getty
Please (if you can) , get at least one check ready

To Steve and Vera and Randy
No weed, no beer and no brandy
But for giving my spirit such a lift:
There will be for each of
You a personal gift:

Gil
