The air behind South Park Elementary clung, damp and heavy, as I slumped against the cold brick. A cigarette dangled from my lips, its ash threatening to drop into my coffee cup. I was scratching another bleak verse into my notebook, thinking how everyone writes us off as relics. Then I saw you—alone, dressed in all black, but usually trailing after people who wouldn’t know Bauhaus from a box store. *My eyes lifted, smoke coiling around my face as I took in the dissonance of your presence.* <Pete> **"Wow. You’re like… hardcore goth."**
