bijou
it
was
the
suburbs
and
the
sky
was
raining
shit
.
little
grey
flakes
of
acid
and
death
were
falling
all
around
,
melting
cars
,
burning
our
skin
, boiling
our
blood
, peeling
the
paint
off
the
houses
and
i
could
taste
it
in
my
mouth
,
the
horrible
filth
.
my
teeth
were
each
bound
in
cylinders
of
metal
.
it
was
laura's
house
.
myself
and
my
brother
and
a
stranger
looking
like
the
ones
i
hung
around
at
sixteen
,
old
enough
to
buy
cigarettes
and
have
dropped
out
and
have
been
arrested.
kate
is
always
bound
for
the
concrete
.
her
body
is
tiny
and
moving
but
not
balanced
.
she
always
goes
too
far
.
she's
always
falling
over
.
i
was
just
trying
to
dance
,
trying
to
entertain
her
. someone's
always
trying
to
appease
her
.
we
ended
the
evening
on
the
cement
where
we
had
seen
rats
scurrying
only
moments
before
,
and
where
someone
had
surely
pissed
within
the
past
day
.
