I sat in my tan 1997 Ford Aspire staring blankly at the neon red sign above the doorway of a shabby brown brick building that read “Gooskis ” the letter G blinked with faint rapidness. The night as with countless nights before left me sleepless and dull. Both symptoms of insomnia that cause hallucinations and would inevitably lead to constant masturbation and daylight awareness.

It's 9:03am Saturday morning and my day has just begun. Restless with only an hour of sleep I'm certainly ready to serve. The phone just started ringing and the addicts need their physician. Who Am I? I'm the hustler with every intent to turn a dollar into two. Blinded by the diamond earrings expensive clothes fresh Air Jordans and classic Cadillacs, it all seems fair.

The day stumbles into Washington Square-languid yellow-green and certain getting up this morning is in no way a good idea. It's a sentiment shared by most every resident of Washington Square. It is a sentiment shared by most anyone who has ever had the misfortune to live in this miserable place none more so than those still awake this morning, seated inside the grim walls of the Coffeetime Café and Grill. It is 6:47 am. It is a Sunday in September, 1981.

Sarah Collins passes through her book-lined living room onto the front porch of her apartment. She stands in darkness dressed only in a slip and cotton bathrobe. Her weight as always rests on a single bare foot the other foot swaying back and forth across the wood plank floor of the porch. She doesn’t mind the evening’s chill. Sarah is almost always too hot. She lights up a cigarette. She inhales deeply.
