CREW: Other people I talk about frequently. People who are important to me who wish to remain anonymous to a degree, or who I don’t want to reveal too much about.

  • MY MOTHER
  • MY FATHER
  • MY BROTHER (his tumblr)
     
  • THE RAVENS’ WINGS: Significant other. Incredible intellectual and Vonnegut-esque writer. Consumer of poetry that no one else has shared interest in. Tolerant of my obsessions and indulgent in my weirdness. (His Tumblr)
     
  • R: Broken read thread, dying flame. A hole in my life and my chest. Someone I will never have back.
     
  • ANI: Ani translates from Japanese to “my older brother.” My sibling by choice. Addict and lost soul.
     
  • THE ONE WHO LIGHTS MY CIGARETTES: Winter fling that crashed in pessimism and moving too quickly.
      
  • THE LOST BOY: Someone I fell in love with under strange circumstances. A friend who will leave me, eventually. A man who is too smart for me by half. He is dating the darling girl, and together with me they made the Triad.
     
  • THE DARLING GIRL: A loving soul. An accidental lover. Another one who will leave soon. Dating the lost boy. Together with me, they formed the Triad.
     
  • THE GIRL WITH THE RAINBOW NECKLACE: A stupidly complicated and failed almost-relationship.
     
  • THE MAN WITH THE BANDANAS: A coworker. A summer relationship. Kinky sex and nerdiness. Occasional egotistical dick.
     
  • THE GIRL WITH THE LOTUS TATTOO: Part of a (regrettably short) emotional and physical menage a trois with the above man. Myself, but wiser. A girl with beautiful energy.
     
  • THE FOOL: A two-night stand. A man of absolute physical beauty, incredible kindness, and a smile that can burn through you in the best way. I’m not pining for him—I only stop sometimes to appreciate his morally ambiguous existence.
      
  • THE SUGAR SUBSTITUTE: A good friend going through a hard time. The second half of a comfortable connection. A boy who deserves to overcome his limits.
     
  • THE UNDERSTANDING BOY: Several-night fling who I care about a little too much. A boy who needs to figure his shit out and stop hurting people, but whose charisma is so easy to fall into.

  • THE SCIENTIST: Ex-lover. Confusion, egotistical boy who gets too drunk, too often, and who spins tales that are never the same twice. Emotional manipulator in personal distress. Overall, a mistake.
