It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Oh, I meant to say this yesterday (in re the vagin = noun, masculine French language gender thing):
And vagine was already taken
But vaginas are the oldest human thing in the world, those and penises. Precedence, messieurs et mesdames! Precedence!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Something about late nights alone and the White Album that kicked my ass into gear.

No, no. This is wrong. I shouldn't be doing this. It doesn't matter that it's electronic, that there will be no steamed envelopes or careless smudges.
Class schedules, group projects, work emergencies. No sign of her glittering prose here; everything is spare, utilitarian. Even this one: "7:30, Thursday. Behind the library. -J" Thursday. The day she couldn't meet me for dinner because "I have to work late, you know how it is." Oh.
"Babe, why are you staring the screen like that?"
Being right doesn't justify it. I run for the bathroom, not knowing which of us disgusts me more.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
That's especially sharp and honest, Karl. Ouch.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Karl, that was wonderful. Painful, but beautifully done. The observations about the difference in her language were what really got me.
