drink gin(ger) and call me at noon
this is not a spoiler of the end, but the apocalypse is in autumn – i saw an angel's notebook once and told no-one, save you, now.
pencil it into this year's journal as an alternative future event to (not) prepare for. build arks as art projects. let the water
save you/drown your sorrows.
drink gin and call me at noon when you wake up (if you do).
if not, i'm sorry. i meant ginger
and i hope it didn't burn.
