i am a dreamer, you may have guessed. a hopeless idealist with occasional tendencies towards cynicism and not-so-occasional tendencies towards melodramatics and melancholy. i am currently stumbling through high school with a moderate amount of success and a balancing amount of failure. words are my passion and my vice. someday i will learn to keep my mouth shut, but that day is definitely not today.

The Weakerthans
Doctors played your dosage like a card-trick. Scrabbled down the hallways yelling "Yatzee!" I brought books on Hopper, and the Arctic, something called "The Politics of Lonely," a toothbrush and a quick-pick with the plus. You tried not to roll your sunken eyes, and said "Hey can you help me, I can't reach it." Pointed at the camera in the ceiling. I climbed up, blocked it so they couldn't see. Turned to find you out of bed, and kneeling. Before the nurses came, took you away, I stood there on a chair and watched you pray. |
