Dog Days ╱ Patrick Zweig & Art Donaldson.

Dog Days.

Don't walk past me like a stranger.

When you watch a match of tennis, you break your neck.

It's a back and forth battle between two people who don't know how obsessed they are with one another.

This battle is then watched, live, by people who you don't know, yet they know everything about you and how fucking obsessed you are with your opponent.

While these two, obsessed with each other, on the court, are not just battling over a ball, over a title, but over a girl.

The first time they'd done it, it had been fun and simple and ridiculous. A laugh at the end.

The second time they'd done it, it had not been fun, it had been brutal and bloody and nauseating. Someone vomited.

One player wishes the girl had just been dead.

The other player wishes the girl had never been shared like she had.

It's a matter of what girl are these players thinking about?

Is it the girl who can walk on her own, yet lets herself get stepped on?

Or is it the girl who can't walk on her own, yet steps on everyone else?

What horrible days these matches make.
