два пути
Из книжки "The Show That Never Ends" (David Weigel пишет за прогрессив), хорошее про Берроуза и Дэвида нашего Аллена:

"He wanted me to play music at his poetry readings --- I was a jazzer back then --- so he suggested we first go up to his room where he got behind his desk like some Brooklyn insurance salesman," recalled Allen. "'Well, Daevid,' he said, 'there are two ways of doing this. One way will take ten minutes, the other will take the rest of your life.' I assumed the first way might have involved sodomy so I opted for the latter."
