Everybody is their own magazine. and as the fashion week crowd flowed in the door like it was their own personal runway, i got to watch the parade and browse the covers like a drugstore magazine rack. i leaned against the mirrored wall. they sat on the barstools like pedestals in the store windows. like a jr. high dance when the slow song comes on. like everyone does because they want to be seen, they want to be read, they want to be picked up off the rack.
I double fisted from the open bar as flashbulbs burned in my eyes like stars. I waded through the mink fur flaunted with apple martinis, mesh back hats, and spilled gin and tonic. 6 decades ago americans dropped bombs to show their power. today we drop names. and carry expensive handbags.
The music beat down as we drank up, and i got smiles from the same side of the rack. i was the straightest man there - and i was wearing pink striped french cuffs. (under a hooded sweatshirt)- but felt like my soul might be the most bent. We celebrated the beautiful clothes, if not the beautiful people, and champagne glasses broke on the ground and compliments were passed around and the d.j. played the soundtrack like a jr. high dance. the men behind the masks who paid for my drinks watched from somewhere like chaperones at the slumber party as they cashed in on the beautiful clothes, if not the beautiful people.
i leaned crooked against the mirrored wall and talked to my friends and looked at the shiny magazine covers spinning to the music on turn-style racks. Under the d.j. beat the man in the dark rimmed glasses and 3 piece suit whispered in my ear.
"Are you gay?" I heard him say.
"Am I gay?" I said.
"No, silly, are you okay?" he replied in his thick Brazilian accent.
"Oh," I smiled. "Well either way, the answer is no."
