I think the mention of the year in the body of the poem and the fact that the waitress is named Julia is nod enough to the book.Well, since I'm not good enough to rewrite a classic, I tried my hand at reinterpreting one of its characters in two ultra-short scenes that lasted all of one and a half minutes out of my life. I guess in two people's humble opinions, it doesn't cut mustard. I'm inclined to edit the poem toward those who found something positive and hope some zine likes it. I have no other grandiose ideas about the little snapper. Thanks for your first comment. That encourages me to continue.
Other than that comment I don't have much to contribute, because others (especially Leanne) have already noted all my confusions/critiques.
