.@@@@.@@.@ 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. ...@@@@...
....@@@@.@ ...@...@..
....@...@@ the ground was sticky, red. @..@@..@@.
....@@..@. @@.@.@.@.@
@...@.@.@@ 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! @@@@@.....
