“Down & down he dragged me, like a fiend he nagged me, for years and years, there ain't no sweet man, that's worth the salt of my tears,” he sang and the cornet player looked across the stage at him. Beyond the stage, the crowd was dancing, a mass of bodies melded together and stepping like one of those cubist paintings that were back in fashion.

The singer turned and winked at him on the high note and he felt himself blush. Later, when they met up in his rooms, there would be kisses as strong as whiskey, maybe more.
