Subtleties

obscure_one's picture

As is this
debauched mind a
trip from the past,
you are unreal.
One tiny figment, a
muse, perhaps. One
pigment so bold and
over-reaching. Over-spanning all these
cliches. Over-stretching,
over-compensating, over-checking.
Reaching out, checking up,
and being okay with my
subtleties regardless. Being okay
enough to ask the
necessary questions. Tell me now,
what answers are you
hoping for?

Did I mention
I love this

Goodnight!

(:D)

Anyway, I'm going to
go to bed now...
Damn.
I'm not going to have studied at
all. Oh well.
You know what?
I don't care.
('Course, when I'm totally
stumped tomorrow I will, but right
now I'm very disconnected and just
tired and sick of this crap
[this crap being this class].)

So, yeah, goodnight.
:)

exact same thing.

Good luck

Thanks.
I'll need it since that's
all I'm going
in there on...
