I frequently attempt to capture home on a canvas But despite all the good this does my soul oils and turpentine do little for the city of Atlanta If you were to ask me why I loved Atlanta. You would know me as you would a brother My first kiss my best friends who no longer live there that time when me and Jacob were so ******* over it that we spent 4 hours throwing rocks at the Chattahoochee hoping it would change something And know nothing of I-285, Jimmy Carter, or Hartsfield-Jackson And as I explain love. With little interest in its subject I feel that Orpheus would have empathized

An Explanation of Orpheus as a Stargazing Voyager and Eurydice Better Left Alone Pt. 2
