Peradventure, the begrimed realm I lie within taught my body to blossom comfortably, to unbend at my leisure. For however long I staggered in wealthy, internal power, I let the sickening tethers of reality sever, permitting the garbage can of my life to sink to the bottom of quizzical delight. Additionally, the tremendous fashions in which I could catalog with the ardent creativity further varnished by the euphoria. Tonight, butterflies. I didn't look at this feared matter within the oily rig like the suicidal bioweapon it was made out to be; I was one of the few bodies willing to have a concrete harness, an audacity strong enough to run marathons for such an unfair elation.
Prior to the aforesaid, I watched the bulk of the group grow dormant from the excess marijuana, whereas I gave into quelled excitement for my heavier sum. I used my feeble teeth and right hand to tie a shoelace from a rotten highschool sneaker to my bicep, further tightened rudely to expose my hungry veins.
Warm, black butterflies. Tender flutters, ecstatic ricochets throughout the walls of my nourished capillaries. Butterflies that dispersed an unbelievable choke of cozy clouds in a pirouette, just shy of a thousand mayhap; why not deepen to the bone? That's the miracle of dopamine.
I poked my head up with a pleasantly numbed fatigue, peering at Quin whom slumbered, Alec and Julian, befuddled by grace of liquor, and a few others who I had promptly alluded to consciousness.
Upon the other previously untenanted mattress lied two men, stargazing happily; they ought to have arrived during the rose of the A.M. hours. I met them long ago, perhaps even before Alec and the others– maybe. They were superficial exemplars of signature crust. Sidney Shalebard, markedly notable for the thin, acerbic-green mohawk, erect and disheveled like a damaged sawblade. Always fetid, was he, reeking of bitter sweat and stagnant toilet bowls. Vicinal to him, stretched out and unable to stir, lie Danny Magellan, a cardinal notoriety for insufflating a clod of glue resin in the eleventh grade. Granted that ecstasy generally lingers for a good day, Dan still quivered and stuttered all while he spoke. I, as well as others, surmise the friable dyad to have found good company in the mutual aspects of the overexerted vogue.
As I peered over my finite horizon, I studied the water pipe resting in the cold palm of Sidney's hand, I could assume the murky, filthy caress just by a somber squint from afar; they ought to have smoked some free-base powder.
Everybody used to come here to flirt, up until somebody– I think it was me– started shooting around those who were naked to heavier recreations. Couples used to put one another in shopping carts, take pictures on vintage polaroid cameras, smash televisions with Alec's steel-toed boots, and especially, graffiti. Rules were fun to break, and it was a crucial element in the romance of youth. Spray paint and photography– it's been a while.
"Yuck, are you getting wet off moonrocks too?" an astonishingly nigh voice approached, inviting a seat aside from me– one of the few leisure-riddled girls whom held a high head, likely gingered for whatever they rendered present for– that'd be Julian's state of affair, in any event.
Therewith the euphoric tension glued to my innocuous eyes, I reviewed the fluorescent designs flickering off of her torn garments, vibrance usually tolerable by exotic themes and nothing more to include as standard. I couldn't envision how astounded I looked, perhaps I myself was studied for my rapt venture, shrouded by a diaphanous wedding veil, mystery only in the clearest of detail. And, given that, the understood beauty is a limpid body of learning water, submerging all under ankles; they must see, the mural I emulsify is my weakest work, yet strongest effort, of sensational charms.
"Are you gonna hurry up and lie to me? Christ, it stinks in here," a soddened murmur broke through my nebulous psyche.
Whilst I beat myself up to a formal structure, I choked harshly on my prolonged dream. I lingered there with spiritual aftertaste, watching this flamboyant doll, discharging a hasty mutter: "Eh, no, I... I just," I wiggled the castoff needle in my lesser-futile arm.
