The Velvet Underground & Jessa Crispin
From Bookslut:
A while back I was left in charge of my nephew, who was being fussy. I was exhausted, and tried singing the song that was echoing in my head to the boy: “I am tired, I am weary, I could sleep for a thousand years.” It wasn’t until I hit the first verse that I realized I was singing “Venus in Furs” to a three-month-old.
