I don't know what this is....

soft outro // the world ends in snow.

everywhere i look, there are portents of demise:

a rag and dirty doll with bug eyes of tiny button,
twisted paper tetrahedron spunk rag, once balled
unfolding.

//

It snows the sky as if stained with flecks of
static, the pulse-thick hand of god. Sight
obscured before the Lord of things white
and clean, like genocide. Hungry wolf-eyed
God says,
nothing.

"this" is freaking boss, man. The only thing i'd ditch is the "like genocide." outside of that, i love the entirety, for it's weirdness and just phenomenalism (i think i just neologized).

real good. like, MFA prog good - at least jon papas' MFA. Also known as jon & bendi's crazy apartment-style living reality show.

Actually Alesia, I'm not sure I can imagine the apartment without you.
