knot
raze tell the story this way:

you are a pre-stardom shock jock who's thrown a rock at the wrong car. you regain consciousness on a stranger's lawn. a victim of police brutality. your face a tumescent mask of pain and pooled blood.

your agent says she's dropping you. there isn't enough juice in your floundering career. she tells you it was always a pleasure to represent you. says to look her up if you're ever in new_york.

when you recognize yourself again, you track her to a writing class she's teaching in a repurposed convenience store. the band in your head plays every song you've ever loved faster than you want it to be. no thought you can throw at them will slow their step.

you ask to share a meal with her. she says to meet her back here at six. you know she won't show. on the elevator that takes you down to the dirt you came from, a man screams and breaks a mirror with the sharpest part of his most muscular arm.

you knead the knot in your hair. let it stay just what it is. another mess that won't be unmade.
