§¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨ 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.           §¨§§¨¨¨¨§§

§¨§§¨¨¨¨¨¨    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!               ¨§§¨¨¨¨¨§§
