august twenty-first
by Ava Bluyou were unusually clean,
even with a cigarette hanging from your lips,
and i wanted to reach for it
to take in something that had been a part of you
but i was always too dirty. 08/21/2009 Posted on 08/22/2009

Clever, brutal, a little on the heartbreaking side and just flawless. I sincerely hope you regard this and the whole August series as some of your best work. I honestly don't see how you can top this one, but I'm totally prepared for the likelihood of that. |
