Gin and Listerine - Martha

Fragments of a memory outlined for posterity

Tears and arguments

Something to do with a missing bag of diet pills and super glue

He waits outside the offy

Cause he doesn’t have ID

And as I recall this evening ends badly

Soaked in gin and Listerine

Are you still listening to me?

Vincenzio

It was a long time coming

But you should let him go

Let me know when you get here

Angelico was ever so severe

Still figuring out what it means to be

Adolescents, indefinitely

Fresh but not clean

Here but not new

Queer but not gay

Young but not cool

Carnal sin at the midnight war

Then snuggling for warmth on the stable floor

We were zipping our sleeping bags together

We were whispering «Pity Me forever»

We were courting strong

Vincenzio

It was a long time coming

But you should let him go

Let me know when you get here

Angelico was ever so severe

Vincenzio

I know it hurts right now

But these moments help us grow

I’m still here for you my dear

Angelico was ever so severe

Vincezio
