##£§@%†«.. 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. ..«†%@§£##
##£§@%†«.. ..«†%@§£##

##£§@%†«.. 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. ..«†%@§£##
