[rose, on the phone]
h-llo, pa
it’s long distance
it’s your brand new southern daughter
it’s rose
oh, everything is fine here, i suppose
how’s the hudson river?
i’m fine, just fine
i’m learning the lingo
magnolia, camelia, azalea, y’all
the temple, get this
has sunday night bingo
just like the goyim
oy
a long distance call
so much to tell
the boy still hates me
i really shouldn’t be talking so loud

he leaves money in his pockets
and that really grates me
i tell him and tell him it’s not allowed
just shucking your laundry-
you hear that? ‘shuck?’
i’m a southerner already-
onto the floor
take the money out first
god knows we’re not poor
but show respect for your father
he worked hard for that buck-
well, no, not a whole buck, he’s a boy
but loose change, quarters
those add up
the negro maid
she’s making bupkes
how does that look?
leaving change in his pockets?
indifferent to money
the kid’s a little funny
spoiled and quiet
sad, i guess
i’m on a diet
i bought a new dress
stu’s giving lessons, playing, doing fine
the work is steady
he still misses betty
i don’t mind
i miss her too
she was my best friend
i miss the city
i miss the old crowd-
what?
because we haven’t got-
we can’t give her a raise, pa
we aren’t rich, we’re just plain folk
we’ve only got bupkes ourselves
we’re broke
it’s typical
you obsess about the maid while your daughter’s miserable
no, not miserable, i never said-
well, it’s not what i meant
i’m just not
just not a hundred percent
it’s very hot
and very damp
and out in the backyard there’s a little swamp
full of noisy frogs
last night i cried
i miss you, pa
i miss the upper west side
