It sure does. A precious memory. I probably could have used it in the original story, first person or not. In fact, every quote sounds like Patti Smith, because no one else talks that way. Very natural to her.
Great piece, and too bad you didn't get those pants. I'll always remember hearing her say, "Fuck censorship," on SNL, but am unable to find anything about this online, so perhaps I imagined the whole thing. Nah!
The memory, the story, is much more valuable than the pants. And I might have bought them...I've done much dumber things with credit cards...is that they were so elegant I could not imagine a situation in rough and tumble 1970s Manhattan that I would wear them! Thanks, Cathy.
Good one. Sounds just like her.
