rough
Things are rough all over.
thinking talking breathing
I guess I just couldn't see standing there -- alive, talking, thinking, breathing, being -- one second, and dead the next. It really bothered me. Death by violence isn't the same as dying any other way, accident or disease or old age. It just ain't the same.
real war kids
We had played a kid's version of gang fighting called "Civil War," and then later we had got in on the real thing, we fought with chains and we fought barefisted and we fought Socs and we fought other grease gangs. It was a normal childhood.
cutting years track
I gotta cut smoking or I'll never make track next year
sunset class watches
It's okay. We aren't in the same class. Just don't forget that some of us watch the sunset too.

crazy supposed-to-be
Writer's were supposed to be a litte crazy
school might frogs
I don't know why I go to school unless for kicks, oh well might as well do dissect a frog.
hate feelings world
You know what the crummiest feeling you can have is? To hate the person you love the best in the world.
Nothing sparkly can stay.
mother brother crazy
Your mother is not crazy. Neither, contrary to popular belief, is your brother. He is merely miscast in a play. He would have made the perfect knight in a different century, or a very good pagan prince in a time of heroes. He was born in the wrong era, on the wrong side of the river, with the ability to do anything and finding nothing he wants to do.
staying
Some are going, some are staying....i'm in between.
