alicia
hungry thirsty ravaged pale
daughter of john and susan and
sister of matthew and kevin
lover of smeared colors, the word shrill and the occasional howl
who needs air, food, and water
who gives a damn, a flying fuck, and two shits more than most
who finds out, waldo, and a purple catamaran
who fears life, death, and everything in between
who enjoys sleep, overcast days, and free parking
who likes to wear clothes, makeup, and some sort of facial expression
who would like to see a movie, a ball game, and a way out
who lives in a house of glazed brick, where the cats chase the dog and the people have no names
cranford




wow, that really didn’t work out very well at all.
