Daisy Buchanan
“Do you always wait for the longest day of the year and then miss it? I always wait for the longest day of the year and then miss it.”
After Gatsby died? Oh, I don’t know;
that was in September wasn’t it?
Oh, August, yes. Well, Tom made us all go
to Cap D’Antibes, and bought a yawl
with sails dyed the color of dried blood—
I swear! We went to…well, where did we go Jordan?
We went everywhere! And it was swell.
One just adorable afternoon the mistral blew
so hard we almost lost the foredeck crew;
and then, what do you call it? The jib
blew out with such a tear. But stories are a bore;
you know, the point is that we lived some more
and met new faces. One couple – he was Irish I think
and she was from Alabama – but not at all that sort.
Oh they wanted to meet us so;
He loved to drink;
Tom hated him, he hated Tom;
she, God what was her name – something strange
foreign – she loathed me and I her!
Between us I bet we covered the whole range
of mismatched possibility. We were
so polite and nice to each other.
Jordan! What was her name?
I know you think they’re all the same—
but no, you know, the one who postured so.
Zelda! I have it, so there I don’t need you
Jordan go back to sleep.
And he was Scott. Scott the sot said Tom
to his face one night, What a dear
Scott was to me. Most people think
there’s not much to me, but Scott knew better.
