Bij Tom Waits denk ik al snel aan Frank. He had a little Chihuahua named Carlos
that had some kind of skin disease
and was totally blind.
He got a gallon of
gas in a can, drove home, doused
everything in the house, torched it,
parked across the street, laughing
watching it burn, all Halloween
orange and chimney red then
Frank put on a top forty station
got on the Hollywood Freeway
headed North. Never could stand that dog.
