They walk out to the old fair grounds, really just a flat sea of drab gray concrete and scrub grass, now reborn, filled with people and alive with lights and the lightning bug softness of children’s glow sticks. The electric sounds of conversation fade in and out, and armies of paper-winged moths and blood-fattened mosquitoes dance around the yellow halo of the lights. Distracted, attracted, and repelled. Repeat.
Oh, this is so beautiful, sad yet hopeful, perfect. Ugh, I can't even formulate complete thoughts. I remember quite a few other things you've posted in this comm and I've liked them all. Your use of imagery is always great.
i'm really glad you liked it. =] i'm around here when i get the time, though i'm certain i'm not the most prolific writer there is. imagery is a lot of fun. it makes my heart happy. =D
I saw the title "Casino Clouds" and I freaked; I love Lovedrug. They are by far one of the greatest bands out there right now. Suck their van was stolen and stripped out, yes? lol.
