the great god pan is dead.

by moniqueezeh

spilled butane from a refilled lighter heat lightning in the humid air cigarette butts in a dirty cupholder — not sure if this is still your number. part of me hopes it isn’t. hand-me-down jeans that don’t fit anymore bleach fume-induced headaches burnt plastic setting off the fire alarm — i’m leaving soon. i won’t promise i’ll be back. overgrown grass from 8 days of rain singed skin over a candle’s flame rotting meat at the bottom a trash can — death doesn’t discriminate. i know that now. *
