There's a kid or some kids somewhere. I'll never know them. They're particle-puzzle-cubing right now. They might be mini-misanthropes from Moosefart, Montana. They might be demi-dystopians from Dogdick, Delaware. They dig my demonic dramas. The metaphysic maims them. They grasp the gravity. They'll duke it out with their demons. They'll serve a surfeit of survival skills. They won't be chronologically crucified. They'll shore up my shit. They'll radically revise it. They'll pass it along. James Ellroy

They might be demi-dystopians from Dogdick, Delaware. They dig my demonic dramas. The metaphysic maims them.

They grasp the gravity. They'll duke it out with their demons. They'll serve a surfeit of survival skills.

They won't be chronologically crucified.They'll shore up my shit. They'll radically revise it. They'll pass it along to their children, who will pass it along to their children, who will pass it along to their children, who will pass it along to their grandchildren...
