If at the end of your hairdressing apprenticeship --
You end up taking a temporary job --
Filing a new data format --
For a questionable concern --
And if it doesn't work out:
And your hands appear "well-turned";
You'll appear "interesting"
And have a fame for acts
"Well-earned"
*Always.*

2021 Close-Out Sale, Final: Do you suppose Dreiser had a friend whose life was somehow like this? "The love that dare not speak his name"?

Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
They've turned things inside out
The truth is not that comfortable, no

2022 Update: Indeed, I wonder sometimes whether Dreiser's model was the American writer George Ade.
