the countdown of small measures

[thisgreatdecay]

the streets are brighter tonight than they usually are. i walk, humming a saxophone solo to myself and stop once to look at the reflection of my eyes onto my glasses in the pane of glass that separates me from other pseudo-bohemian coffee drinkers as they ash their cigarettes and peruse the tucson weekly

i will miss you david. it's been quite an experience knowing you, and of course is not over but i think of our relationship, or used to, like we were brothers. we fought like brothers. but we still loved each other. the coast was a fun project, we played the rialto. i can't say i've done that again. i'm sorry things turned out that way they did for that. but i'm also happy that you have found a path in your life.

i am sure you will be successful.

i would also like to apologize for not attending your going away party. however. you're not going away forever. and i look forward to talking to you via e-mail, via aim or when you come to visit during holidays (if you do, that is).

have a wonderful life in chicago,

xo, jeremy

dave,
so how long has it been? 4 years? something like that. longer than i've known most kids here.
i'd rather tell you this stuff in person, so i hope i'll get a chance to see you tomorrow.
i'm going to miss you david ross, but i know chicago will be very exciting for you. take care and try to stay in touch.
i love you very much,
larissa
