The landlord told us never to go on the roof. We take to borrowing others, tiptoes clanging on steel and iron My knees rubbing gravel and asphalt. We finish the wine and **** three stories up. Most days we sit curled on broken patio chairs Cigarette to split No, I want my own. Unspoken fourth neighbor snoresputtercoughsnortsneezes from the corner. **** you, Chaz. We didn't come, by pick up truck and bicycle, to live above crackheads again. I could smell it, those May mornings. Misha, always sick, he said. He was. You were always the Junction. Where drunken promises sober **** ups idle hope came and met ****** up ugly only to straighten out again. Destined Final Resting Place of my last drops of liquor. In a way it could never amount to more than that. A wasteland we did nothing but lay waste to. Avery taught me how to french inhale sitting on the hood of her 74' Ford something or other. Fishnets Valu Village miniskirt, lakeside cold Her zippo lighter roman candle flash bright. Didn't I steal that? Didn't I, one winter darkened morning, rifle through your jeans for TTC fare and a fiver for an Egg McMuffin? Who can remember.
