SLEEP THE CLOCK AROUND

I feel like I've been looking so hard for the last few weeks, for the thing that will make me happy. A copy of Franny & Zooey, a cannister of the kind of face powder I remember from my grandmother's dressing table, a walk, a cup of coffee, a cigarette, a dance party. None of it has worked & I'm getting frustrated. I should be able to make myself feel better. It shouldn't take anything more than a little hard work, or finding the right thing. Is that how it works for everybody else? Is that all?
