...&&&..&. The Barn Was Placed So You Could Just .&....&..&
&..&.&&... Make Out The Surrounding Fields Through ..&....&..
.&...&&&.. The Trees. ...&....&.
..&..&.&&. ....&....&
&..&...&&& My Car Was Black And Loud, Both The .....&....

....&..&.. Eternal Dark That Seemed To Surround ...&.....&
&....&..&. Us. She Seemed To Cast This Veil Over ....&.....

..&....&.. Her Knees But Then Somehow Also Back .&....&...
...&....&. Around, Enveloping All My Memories Of ..&....&..
....&....& Our Time Together. ...&....&.

&.....&... There Was Blood Everywhere. Sometimes .....&....
.&.....&.. The Blood Was Her Red Lipstick Or Her ......&...
..&.....&. Checkered Shirt. She Was On Television. .......&..
...&.....& We Did Crime, And We Made Weird &.......&.
....&..... Structures In The Barn, Tall Pillars Of &&.......&
&....&.... Dark Wood, Ladders And Plateaus, Fires &&&.......
.&....&... And Fairy Lights. We Would Sleep There &.&&......
..&....&.. And Drink There And She Would Go In The ..&&&.....
