from someone who has already twirled away by the time my eyes open
from someone who has already twirled away by the time my eyes open
from someone who has already twirled away by the time my eyes open
on the days I want to be alive I tell myself I deserve a marching band
on the days I want to be alive I tell myself I deserve a marching band
or at least a string section to announce my arrival above —Hanif Abdurraqib
