I can't even remember her face any more.
I look at her pictures most days
and all I see is a little stranger.
Bernard fades too.
That was his name, Bernard.
Not Bern-ard, but Ber-nard.
Bernard.
Bernard.
Ber-nard!
"You'll be sorry when I'm dead, Bernard,"
I said to myself.
"It may be a mortal sin but it'll
break your lousy heart, Bernard,"
I said to myself.
I dressed up in all my finery.
I even had my hair done up in curls.
I set the table for two with candles.
I swallowed every goddamn thing
I could lay my hands on - aspirin,
Disprin, Veganin, codeine, the lot.
I lay down on the sofa.
The music was playing.
I drifted off down a
cool river toward the sea.
If you've got to go, that's...
that's the way to do it, like in a poem...
except I became violently sick.
I staggered out to the loo.
I could hardly make it.
I started to go blind.
I was puking like a drunken sailor.
I slipped and fell and broke my bloody hip,
and that's how he found me.
Do you know what Bernard said to me?
"You could have
killed yourself, honey. "
I haven't done anything wrong.
Let me stay. Let me stay, for Christ's sake!
No!
Mum...
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
There were two mice fell in a pail of milk.
One of them yelled for help and drowned.
The other kept pedalling
around and around...
till, in the morning,
he found himself on top of butter.
