novembre ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a family outing. my brother just came out to my mother. i didn't think he would bother but he told her to sit down and she is still sitting down, days later. my brother is the darling of my family, extended and nuclear. he impresses them with wine know-how and salesmanship inherited from car-dealing genes that are put to good use by private school grooming. he is easy going and has played water polo, gone to a certain college, surfed all because our father wanted him to. (i was the child who did the exact opposite. he was golden and i was having panic attacks. he was gone and i was sitting on the roof staring at the stars) my brother is next planning on telling our father. this is akin to jumping off a cliff without the ocean below to buffer your fall at least a little bit. no. there is just dust and alcohol down there, and some faded dreams. 2:43 am - 03.03.02 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
