Waking without him
feels a bit like dying, or

falling down real far.

~~~~

Vomit on the floor

Blue eyes glazed from stolen pills.

He cannot forget.

There were few he loved

and many more he hated.

James defies typecast.

~~~~

Pianist fingers

Calluses from guitar strings.

An offbeat allure.

Beautiful! My favorite was the last one - incredible imagery for such few syllables.

All very beautiful, I particularly like the third one, because there is indeed an ambivalence between them, an ambivalence that is the very opposite of neutrality.

Wonderful! #2 is a great callback to "Merry Little Christmas," and I love how #3 captures House's fascination with Wilson.
