Let me tell you all about it
Love is Sometimes Fast and Hard
Owen Moody — your lover for a night — dear Asha, reached out to apologize to me for taking you away from me, but I felt undaunted.
And I saw that guy Jamaal leave your house walking like a dead man — OK, I didn’t see him with my own eyes, but my friend Percy Griffiths told me about it.
He was just hanging out with his friend Nickolas Stanton and, well, fuck, what did you do to him?
That kind of sent me tipping in the wrong direction, so I went out drinking with Casey Melton and Philip Strong, and we did the pub crawl thing and by the end I was nearly crawling just to get home.
A girl I used to date named Pansy Shepherd sent me a chat that she was worried about me — happened to see me looking pretty dismal, collapsed on a park bench.
Frankly, my love, you have too many lovers to name: Jarvis Salas, Lamont Winters, Quinton Cervantes — you spare none of them from your whirlwind charms.
My mother’s name was Bernadette; we grew up in Sanford and her best friend was Lorene Chapman. They used to get drunk and smoke and stink up the house something terrible.
