Always
liked her father
Because
he never not once looked down on me
Even
though he towered over me like The Friendly Giant or a skyscraper
Always
secretly liked her
Because
she takes shit from no one
And
according to her father she’s a genius when it comes to music
They
watched Django Unchained while I went
upstairs and did my own thing because I’ve never been a fan of Quentin
Tarantino except for Reservoir Dogs and
Natural Born Killers
They
seemed to enjoy it and we still got stoned as I ignored the overt racism and
Quentin’s annoying way of belaboring the obvious while pretending he’s out of
the ordinary
Never
forget when Colleen jumped off that cliff. It appeared she was jumping into nothingness,
but she said she’d done it before so I trusted I would see her again
I
didn’t go into the deep end even though her cajoling was tempting and maybe
drowning wouldn’t have been half bad
We
sat on their front steps as he told me in his ‘take no prisoners’ method that
he had played the game and lost
My heart will be forever
broken
