¨¨¨§§§¨¨§¨ i used to be a goth, in my youth, doing  ¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨ crimes mostly from or in my beloved and  ¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨  trusted car, and sometimes my mothers   ¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨   barn. we lived just outside town, a    ¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§   grove at the end of a dirt road, and   ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨§  the barn was placed so you could just   ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§  make out the surrounding fields through §¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§                the trees.                ¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨                                          ¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨    my car was black and loud, both the   §¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨   engine and the way the parts didn't    §§¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨     really stick together. i took my     §§§¨¨§¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨ crimefriend for rides, in the dark, the  §¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨   eternal dark that seemed to surround   ¨¨§§§¨¨§¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨  us. she seemed to cast this veil over   ¨¨§¨§§¨¨§¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨  everything. her black skirt reached to  §¨¨¨§§§¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§   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 ¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨§
¨§§§¨¨§¨§§               television.                ¨§§§¨¨§¨¨¨

¨¨¨§§§¨¨§¨  and then the sun came out, and she went ¨¨¨§§§¨¨§¨
¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨  away. everything changed... i yearned,  ¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨   and the world became dull around me.   ¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨

¨¨§¨¨¨¨§§§    i stopped doing crime, except when    ¨§¨¨¨¨¨§§§
§¨¨§¨¨¨§¨§  necessarry. things somehow seemed like  ¨¨§¨¨¨¨§¨§
§§¨¨§¨¨¨¨§  they were allright, moulded in place,   ¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨§
¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨§   and i loathed it ------ i missed her   ¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨§
¨§§§¨¨§¨¨¨                 so much.                 §¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨

¨§¨¨¨¨¨§§§  i searched for her, but nobody had any  §¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨
¨¨§¨¨¨¨§¨§    memories of her. not so much of me    ¨¨§§§¨¨§¨¨
¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨§ either, from the time we were together.  ¨¨§¨§§¨¨§¨
¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨§  my mother said i kept to myself in the  §¨¨¨§§§¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨           barn, or in the car.           §§¨¨§¨§§¨¨

¨¨§¨¨¨¨§¨¨     sometimes i could still see her      ¨§§§¨¨§¨§§
§¨¨§¨¨¨¨§¨    flashing by on the tv in the barn.    ¨§¨§§¨¨¨§§
§§¨¨§¨¨¨¨§     everything was black then, for a     ¨¨¨§§§¨¨§¨
§§§¨¨§¨¨¨¨ moment. i remembered her laugh and knew  ¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨
§¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨   we had done crimes together, that it   ¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨
¨¨§§§¨¨§¨¨             had been real...             ¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨

¨§¨§§¨¨¨§§    i died by getting shot in the head    ¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§§§¨¨§¨  while ramming the fence to a military   ¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨   facility. by this time they had been   ¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨   chasing me for days. i lost control    ¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨   over the car, crashed it into a rock   ¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§     wall and flew out the windshield.    ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨§                                          ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§   and then i got up, and looked around.  §¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§   it was dark, where it previously had   ¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨    been a bright day. around me where    ¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨   dozens of crashed cars, all my car,    §¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨               some on fire.              §§¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨   and then i realized that i knew this   ¨¨§¨§§¨¨§¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨     darkness. i knew the way the sky     §¨¨¨§§§¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§ touched the ground. this was her doing!  §§¨¨§¨§§¨¨
¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨               she was here!              ¨§§¨¨¨§§§¨
