september pt. 2
from the editors: some poetry, updated playlist, weekend events, can u help with distro?
or is it fists?
something endearing especially to you is wrapped up in paper towels warming by the second
and enjoy it fast, please, I can hardly wait for you to enjoy it
what are the words in that song I like again? something to do with waiting for you, waiting for you with dull knives? forever? or is it fists?
forever?
this has nothing to do with us, i grip them as i yell loudly you’re just so much better than me at remembering.
everyone forgets the words sometimes! even a rockstar. we sprint through the crowd and beer spills on us from all sides until we get to the front and shake the barricade until security lets us know they are very, very disappointed. but we get to scream
I used to point out the sky to you every time it was beautiful so you would remember me every time it was beautiful.
and a lot of things were right
even a rockstar, i repeated to you as we walked home from prison that night. I felt so sad I could barely get the words out and you understood anyways
I am pretty sorry about that though.
somebody we know wrote a piece of fiction and i will read it first and if it’s beautiful I will ask you to read it, it always goes like that, and because we are so scared we hold each other so tightly and repeat “a lot of things are right” in whisper, in unison until someone falls asleep or until we both get bored.
